Understanding your warranty gives you peace of mind and keeps you informed about what's protected.

## Typical Coverage

New Chevrolets come with a **3-year/36,000-mile basic warranty** covering defects in materials and workmanship (powertrain coverage extends further-ask our Finance team for exact terms). This includes:

- Engine, transmission, and major systems
- Parts and labor for factory defects
- Roadside assistance and courtesy transportation

## What's Usually Not Covered

Routine maintenance (oil changes, air filters, wear items like brake pads), accidents, modifications, and misuse typically aren't included.

## Keep Your Coverage Valid

Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual and use genuine Chevrolet parts. Skipping service or using non-OEM parts may void coverage.

## Get the Details

Your new-vehicle paperwork outlines exact coverage limits. Our **Finance team** can walk you through every detail when you purchase. Call **(779) 600-2956** to ask questions or review your specific warranty.
