How to Buy a Warranty From Mercedes

1. Go to a Mercedes Benz dealership. A Mercedes Benz dealer is authorized to sell warranty coverage on behalf of the manufacturer. To find a Mercedes auto dealership in your area, you can use a website like Edmunds. A link is in the Resources section. Type in your ZIP code and state for a listing of Mercedes dealers in your area.
2. View the types of warranty programs available through Mercedes Benz. The basic warranty will cover most systems, except wear and tear items, like air filters, brake pads, wiper blades and oil filters. The drive-train warranty will protect your car once the basic warranty expires. This covers moving systems in the car, like the engine, transmission, drive shaft and axles. The rust warranty will protect you in the case of corrosion damage.
3. Select the number of years you want coverage. Both the basic, rust and drive-train warranties start at four years for new vehicles. You can extend the warranties for an additional fee.
4. Look at the mileage covered under the warranties. Most of the coverage will expire once you reach 50,000 miles.
5. Receive a quote on the warranty. If you decide to buy the warranty coverage, it will be added to your car loan and your monthly payments will increase. The Mercedes dealer will provide you with the paperwork to sign as well as a copy of your warranty. If roadside assistance is included in the coverage, you will be given a hot line to call in case of a breakdown.
