Vehicle Service Contracts
VSCs come in many shapes, lengths, and coverages, and they can be a profit center or a cost drain depending on how skillfully they are written. Our consultants can help with component coverage, exclusions, term length, and transferability issues, as well as smoothing out the financing and deductible policies.
Tech-only Warranty
Cars have become sophisticated computers that happen to be attached to wheels and chassis. Tech-only warranties give your customers peace of mind about their infotainment systems, touchscreens, navigation systems, cameras, and safety assistant tech. They’ll also be able to get your help with Bluetooth systems and wifi hotspots. This sort of coverage is particularly attractive to tech-savvy customers!
Limited Warranty
All warranties are limited, either by time, mileage, or usage. Our experts can help craft warranties that protect your profits while also making your customers feel protected!
Dealer-branded CPO
The big car brands have branded certified pre-owned vehicle programs, so why shouldn’t you? Increase your dealership’s footprint and prestige with a multi-point inspection from certified technicians, creating an atmosphere of trust and transparency when selling used vehicles. Our consultants can help set up a program with the latest best practices for a CPO program.
High Mileage Warranty
Who doesn’t want their car to reach 200,000 miles or more? You can help your customers achieve this with a high-milage warranty that covers major components. The costs associated with high mileage can be eye-watering, so take advantage of our consultants when crafting a warranty that satisfies both your customers and your bottom line.
Lease Warranty
People who lease cars have a low tolerance for mechanical or electrical problems—after all, they’re leasing to have a newer model with fewer problems (or at least that’s the idea). Our consultants can help you put together lease warranties that reassure customers while protecting your bottom line.
‣ Wearables
Some lease warranties cover wearable items such as brake pads, windshield wiper blades, and batteries. Does that sort of coverage make sense for your dealership? Get a consult and find out!
‣ Extended Comprehensive
How extensive and how comprehensive should a lease warranty be? You have questions, we have answers.
Total Loss
As you know, when the repair costs more than the value of the vehicle, it’s totaled. But that’s not the end of the story, not by a long shot. How is the ACV calculated? How is the settlement process best streamlined? What can your dealership do to reclaim value from a totaled vehicle? Our consultants may surprise you with their solutions.
Depreciation Protection
Customers like to joke that “You drive it off the lot and it loses half its value.” While that’s not exactly true, they’re on to something. Vehicles are, by definition, depreciating assets. We have programs ready to go that can help your customer mitigate the personal and financial annoyance of depreciation—within financial and time limits. This is yet another service you can offer your client base!
CermaPlate
CermaPlate is a ceramic coating and liquid polymer applied to a vehicle's exterior surfaces. Once cured, it forms a strong, durable layer that bonds with the factory paint, creating a protective barrier. For your customers, this is a level of protection and appearance enhancement they might not get at another dealership, and it’s yet another service that can add to (or detract from) your bottom line. We’ll help you get it right!
Key Replacement
Nothing gets lost faster than the thing you put in a special place so you won’t forget it. This is true of car keys as much as anything else. A quick and painless key replacement is a great way to enhance customer loyalty and generate a little profit.
Tire and Wheel
Road hazards like potholes and nails are unpredictable, but Tire & Wheel covers your customers. With up to seven years of protection, it ensures that damaged tires and wheels are repaired or replaced. Added benefits like 24/7 roadside assistance and substitute transportation provide extra peace of mind. It’s a reliable way for dealerships to enhance customer trust and satisfaction while offering valuable protection.
Theft Deterrence
Theft is a costly and frustrating experience for vehicle owners, but it’s also a concern for dealerships striving to provide comprehensive protection for their customers. Our solution helps deter thieves and supports vehicle recovery efforts by aiding law enforcement in identifying stolen vehicles. For customers facing the loss of an unrecovered vehicle, our program provides a cash benefit to help offset unexpected expenses. This added layer of protection enhances customer confidence, reduces risk, and delivers greater value.
Combo
Are these a whole lot of services? Yes, they are! Can we make them easier for customers to understand by offering combo packages? Yes, we can! Our consultants can craft service and warranty combinations for the most common user scenarios, including minimalist and maximalist packages that hit consumers in the sweet spot.
Pre-loads
Front-end margins are being squeezed across our industry. Make up for this with pre-load combos that can pad your bottom line. Sample combinations could include:
