Warranties
Checkered Flag offers warranties on any vehicle from new to pre-owned to already-owned! Is that service bill a little steep, check the price of a warranty with any Checkered Flag finance department. Just ask a sales agent or service writer to get you in touch with the right individual.
What are they all about? Let us explain!
It’s about peace of mind
Your vehicle is a big investment..an investment that needs to be cared for.
Statistics say that most major repairs will occur after the original factory warranty has expired.
It’s about knowing that you’re taken care of
Car repairs are inconvenient. They take up time, and they take up energy. Also, they are very expensive, especially with all the higher tech components in the newer models.
It’s about making things a little easier
With a network of over 5,000 authorized service centers and repair shops, we make it easy to keep your repairs as stress free as possible, and we can even include the cost of protection in the financing of your vehicle. It’s Easy.
It’s about You
