WHY IT'S IMPORTANT TO READ YOUR VEHICLE SERVICE CONTRACT:

Regardless of where you buy an extended service contract, it's important to make sure you understand all of the terms and conditions of that agreement. The single most common point of contention between the customer and contract administrator is what items are covered. Make sure you fully understand what is, and what is not, covered for repair. Protection plans often have different coverage levels—good, better, and best. The best plan will cover more items and more conditions—age of the vehicle, and miles on the odometer, for example. At Freedom Warranty, our contracts are easy to understand. Everything is stated clearly—what we cover and how to file a claim, if necessary. Take the time to read and understand all the details of your extended vehicle service contract.
