Mercedes-Benz Extended Limited Warranty

The mercedes-benz extended limited warranty offers additional protection once the original 4-year/50,000-mile new vehicle limited warranty expires, with options that add an extra one, two, or three years of protection to best fit your ownership experience – up to 100,000 miles.

And because this extended limited warranty is a product fully backed by mercedes-benz, you can have complete confidence that it offers a premium level of coverage when compared to aftermarket alternatives. Mercedes-benz extended limited warranty offers several term options so you can choose the coverage that best suits your needs. Based on your vehicle model, you may choose to continue your warranty coverage up to 60, 72, or 84 months from the original 48-month/50,000-mile new vehicle limited warranty start date – up to either 75,000 or 100,000 total miles.

Additionally, mercedes-benz extended limited warranty coverage may be purchased at any time prior to the expiration of your original new vehicle limited warranty. * payment options are similarly flexible: you may choose to pre-pay the entire extended limited warranty amount up-front, or include the cost in your monthly financing payments. Your dealer can work with you to help determine the approach that will best fit your needs. With extended limited warranty there’s no complicated paperwork to process, no deductibles and no hassles.

As a mercedes-benz extended limited warranty customer, you will enjoy the uncommon level of service and care that can only be found at authorized mercedes-benz dealerships. Mercedes-benz trained service professionals can help ensure your vehicle is cared for with the superior attention to detail it deserves.

Essentially, the mercedes extended warranty is an extension of the new vehicle limited warranty with a few differences. These are presumably explained by the dealer. You can choose to extend the original 4-year/50,000-mile warranty by up to 3 years, with a further choice of extending the mileage out to 75,000 or 100,000 miles. Note, however, that this means adding 25,000 or 50,000 miles to the original 50,000-mile warranty, not adding 75,000 or 100,000 miles. Bear those figures in mind when considering the cost of the mercedes extended warranty , which can range from $2,405–$8,250 depending on the mercedes model and length of extended warranty contract that you choose. Notably, with the mercedes extended warranty, there’s no deductible to pay for repairs, and the warranty is transferable to a new owner if you sell the car.

The Mercedes-Benz New Vehicle Limited Warranty

In the unlikely event that your mercedes-benz is rendered inoperable or unsafe to drive as the result of a condition requiring warranty repair, when you are farther than 100 miles from home, and requires overnight repairs at a mercedes-benz dealership, you may be covered by the trip interruption program. *. As long as the condition is a warrantable defect and the vehicle is still within the limited new vehicle warranty period, and all repairs are performed at an authorized mercedes-benz dealership, you may be reimbursed up to $300 per day* for actual documented expenses – for up to three days – including the costs of meals, lodging, and substitute transportation. * all trip interruption claims and documentation must be presented to, and approved by, an authorized mercedes-benz dealership.

With your certified pre-owned mercedes-benz comes peace of mind because every vehicle is backed by a comprehensive pre-owned vehicle limited warranty. For starters, any remaining portion of the mercedes-benz 4-year/50,000-mile new vehicle limited warranty applies to the vehicle. After that, the mercedes-benz certified pre-owned limited warranty provides vehicle coverage for another 12 months or up to 100,000 total accumulated miles, whichever comes first. For those certified pre-owned vehicles no longer covered by the new vehicle warranty, the mercedes-benz certified pre-owned limited warranty takes effect at the time of delivery. This coverage extends to include most of the major components of engine and powertrain, steering, suspension, brakes (excluding wear of discs and pads), electrical system, climate control system, and more. For specific coverage, please see your mercedes-benz dealer for a copy of the mercedes-benz certified pre-owned limited warranty.

People love Mercedes cars, but do they love the warranty?

Interestingly, many aftermarket extended warranties do reimburse the customer for towing, lodging and food, and rental car expenses when a vehicle is in the shop for a covered repair. This is something we like about third-party extended warranties. Of course, an extended warranty is for down the road, after the original new vehicle warranty expires. As is common among luxury brands, many mercedes-benz customers lease their vehicles, and most lease terms fall within the coverage period of the new vehicle warranty. One reason that some people lease their cars is to avoid dealing with repairs after the warranty expires. For those who buy mercedes-benz cars or suvs, the brand does offer its own mercedes extended warranty , which can be purchased at time of vehicle purchase or any time before the original warranty expires.

Overview: Mercedes Warranty Coverage

Advertiser disclosure. The mercedes-benz badge connotes great design and engineering, pioneering safety technology, unquestioned luxury, and impeccable build quality. The company stands behind its cars and suvs with a 4-year/50,000-mile warranty. How good is that versus other luxury brands?. We looked at standard new-vehicle warranties for 35 brands and ranked the mercedes-benz warranty at number 22 on the list. That does not mean it is not a good warranty or that cars with longer warranties are better cars.

We’ll also point out some options for extending warranty coverage, both from mercedes-benz and third-party providers.

Mercedes-benz was among the first brands to offer a certified pre-owned program for its used cars in the 1990s, and its current program is pretty picky about the cars it covers. Mercedes models must be less than 6 years old and have less than 75,000 miles to qualify and must then pass a 165-point inspection for certification. Vehicles with identifiable structural damage or a problem shown in a carfax vehicle history report are not approved for the cpo program. Mercedes vehicles that do qualify for cpo get the remainder of the 4-year/50,000 mile new vehicle limited warranty (if any) plus another 12 months/unlimited miles of comprehensive coverage. According to mercedes, this coverage extends to the powertrain, steering, suspension, brakes, electrical and climate control systems, and more.
