Used Cars Sold Under Manufacturer’s Warranty
Many used vehicles sold throughout the state are sold with all or portions of the initial manufacturer’s warranty. Most vehicles are delivered from the factory with a “basic” or “bumper-to-bumper” warranty, which covers the bulk of car components and a “powertrain” warranty, which covers the engine, transmission, and related parts.
