2 Different Volkswagen New Car Warranties Available At Archer Volkswagen In Houston
All new cars sold in the United States come with some kind of warranty coverage, but Volkswagen is a brand that goes above and beyond. Depending on which vehicle you select at Archer Volkswagen, you can get one of two warranty plans -- and they're both superior to what you get from most brands! The typical new car warranty from other automakers may only give you 3 years/36,000 miles of comprehensive, bumper-to-bumper warranty protection. Volkswagen wants you to buy with confidence, so you get more from a VW warranty! Find out more about your options and how a factory warranty helps save you money on the page below.
What Is A Factory New Car Warranty?
A new car warranty is designed to protect you from incurring added maintenance costs due to manufacturer defects. All Volkswagen vehicles are built to deliver reliable performance and should last hundreds of thousands of miles with proper maintenance! In the event that a component on your vehicle malfunctions prematurely, the new car warranty has got you covered. Any problems your vehicle develops during the warranty period may be covered. That means, to get them fixed, simply head to Archer Volkswagen where we'll carry out a quality warranty repair at no cost to you.
Unfortunately, damage caused by yourself or another driver cannot be covered by the warranty. Furthermore, you may be denied warranty coverage if the vehicle's regular maintenance needs were neglected. But, if something goes wrong on your Volkswagen that can be traced back to a manufacturing defect or incorrect installation by an authorized service center, we'll make it right and you won't have to spend a dime.
The People First Warranty (Model Years 2018-2019)
For the 2018 and 2019 models, Volkswagen introduced one of the industry's longest warranty terms: 6 years/72,000 miles of bumper-to-bumper warranty coverage. That means for the first six years of ownership (or 72,000 miles on the odometer, whichever comes first), Volkswagen stands behind their workmanship. We call it the People First warranty, and it's one of the best reasons to snag a 2018 or 2019 Volkswagen model before they disappear entirely from our inventory!
New 2020 Volkswagen Warranty (Model Years 2020 And Beyond)
With the introduction of the 2020 model year, Volkswagen decided to change things up a bit. They've shortened the factory warranty term, but provided included maintenance so you can save more on owning your Volkswagen!
All 2020 Volkswagen models now come with a 4-year/50,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty. That's a shorter term -- but, for the first two years you own your Volkswagen, you won't have to pay a penny for maintenance. We'll carry out all the vehicle's routine maintenance tasks at no cost to you for the first two years! That includes things like oil and filter changes, tire rotations and more. Many shoppers find that the new warranty with included maintenance makes owning a new Volkswagen even more affordable! And since you're getting service from the factory certified VW pros at Archer Volkswagen, you can bet that you're getting the very best care for your beloved VW.
(The only exception to this rule is the all-electric Volkswagen eGolf, which comes with a 3-year/36,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty.)
Pre-Owned Vehicle Warranties
Looking for the peace of mind that comes from a factory warranty-backed vehicle without paying for a brand-new car? Be sure to check out our selection of Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles!
A certified pre-owned VW has met stringent qualifications, including low miles and proper maintenance history. They're the finest pre-owned vehicles you can buy. These vehicles have been inspected by Volkswagen technicians and pass their remaining new vehicle warranty on to you when you purchase one. Plus, you'll also get an additional 1 year/12,000 mile comprehensive limited warranty that begins when the new car warranty expires! Getting a used vehicle doesn't mean rolling the dice when you shop at Archer Volkswagen. A certified pre-owned VW is a great alternative to merely "used" cars that are sold as-is.
