Your GMC is a wise investment, and you want to protect it and retain its value. One of the best ways to do this is an extended warranty. This type of warranty extends the coverage of your new limited warranty and gives you future peace of mind. Repair and service costs can add up, which makes a warranty extension option good value for money. As your GMC dealer, we want to tell you more about your available options.
Advice From Your GMC Dealer: Extended Warranty Plans
Limited Warranty
When you buy your new GMC, it’s covered by several warranties already. Let’s take a look at the details.
Bumper-to-Bumper Warranty
This warranty applies for the first three years or 36,000 miles, whichever occurs first. It covers your car against any defect in workmanship or materials. The warranty also covers your tires in the event of a defect, but does not include normal wear and tear. It also covers towing costs to your nearest authorized dealership. The warranty doesn’t cover routine maintenance or damage from accidents.
Powertrain Warranty
This warranty focuses on your engine, transmission, and powertrain. It covers these components for the first five years or 60,000 miles, whichever occurs first. It protects you against defects in workmanship or materials. Again, the warranty doesn’t apply to maintenance or accidental damage. Some items like hoses, wiring, and sensors are excluded from coverage.
Corrosion Protection
This warranty protects against rust through on all body and sheet metal on your vehicle. It applies for the first six years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first.

Extension Options
There are three different plans to add extra protection for your GMC. These are the powertrain warranty, the silver warranty, and the platinum warranty. We’ll look at each of them in turn.
Powertrain Warranty
This warranty covers your engine, transmission, drivetrain, and hybrid/EV systems.
Silver Protection Plan
This warranty includes everything covered by the powertrain warranty and adds protection for climate control, front suspension, rear suspension, and your electrical, braking, and steering systems.
Platinum Protection Plan
This is the most comprehensive plan and includes everything in the silver plan and adds your audio, high-tech, and navigation systems. It includes coverage of over 1,500 parts.
The extended protection plans also include roadside assistance, rental car coverage, and trip interruption. You can choose extensions from two years or 24,000 miles to five years or 60,000 miles. The different plan options and terms have a monthly fee and can include a deductible subject to your choice.
