Fast-Track the Process of Filing a GM Extended Warranty Claim

General Motors or GM is a vehicle manufacturing company, bringing us cars such as the GMC, Buick, Cadillac, and Chevrolet. Aside from the limited or bumper-to-bumper car warranty, GM offers an extended warranty.

This warranty is not the typical extended warranty that starts once the manufacturer warranty ends—it is an opportunity to extend the existing warranty of your car.

What Does a General Motors Extended Warranty Cover?

You can only get GM’s extended warranty at the time of purchase of your new car. The coverage, pricing, and warranty period may vary depending on the vehicle:
