Your
vehicle has a 33% chance of breaking down this year.
In fact, the average service contract holder will make
between 4 and 5 claims over the life of their warranty.
These repair costs can extend into the thousands of
dollars. And if your vehicle breaks down after the factory
warranty expires, you have nothing to protect you. Faced
with expensive repair bills, owners will often choose
to put off repairs until they can afford them. This
delay usually results in unnecessary damage to the vehicle,
and can often make the vehicle unsafe to drive. Of course,
the older your vehicle and the higher the mileage, the
more likely it is to break down and leave you in a financial
jam.
Cars today are very complex, high tech machines. The
electronics and computers that make your vehicle run
are also very likely to break. Accordingly, the cost
of maintaining these sophisticated systems is rising
at a dramatic pace. If you think about it, the cost
of a mechanical repair can often rival the cost of a
fender bender or, in some cases, a major collision.
So, for the very same reasons we insure our vehicles
against accidental damage or loss, we’ve got to
protect that same vehicle from mechanical loss. It’s
the smart thing to do. |
