It’s easy to sit here and tell you that you need an extended car warranty is simple, but to back it up with facts requires a little bit of work. We here at Continental Warranty want to make sure your vehicle is accounted for with a warranty no matter what happens. So here are a few statistics about how often certain things happen to different vehicles, should you be on the fence about any of our warranties!
Ways To Break A Windshield
Breaking a windshield just by sheer initial force of an object hitting it isn’t all that common, though it does happen. What’s more likely is that your windshield will get hit by something small, like an errant rock coming off the wheels of an 18-wheeler or larger truck in front of you. What starts off as a tiny chip can spider into something larger, be that over the course of a day or a week. Another way your windshield might incur a crack is from stress due to hot weather or extremely cold weather. Even a drastic, sudden change in temperature can do it!
Roadside Assistance
Running out of gas is a common reason to need roadside assistance, as is blowing out a tire. While these are generally avoidable problems, one people might not be so aware of is how to know when your battery is dying. So pay attention to things like if your car is having trouble starting up, if your car starts fine one day and then the next it doesn’t and if you’ve been jumping the battery a lot more than normal. These all mean that it’s time to get your battery replaced!
Stolen Vehicles
Our extended vehicle warranties offer different options regarding stolen vehicles, this way should anything ever happen to your vehicle you can get back to your daily life a little bit easier. According to the FBI in 2013, 699, 594 total motor vehicles were stolen. Of this number, over 73-percent were cars alone. That percentage doesn’t account for trucks and motorcycles, and according to the same statistic, one motor vehicle is stolen every 45 seconds in the United States.
