Mondo Admin / 28-06-2024 / Financial News

Ever wondered which cars are the most popular on South African roads that are protected by Roadwise Motor Warranty? As the leading provider of extended car warranties, we have all the details.

But first, here’s a summary of what an extended car warranty is and why you need it:

This type of cover keeps you financially protected against unexpected mechanical or electrical breakdowns by covering repairs or replacements for specific car parts and associated labour costs.

All new cars in South Africa come with a factory warranty, but once it expires—based on years or mileage provided by the manufacturer—you’ll need an extended warranty.

It pays out for all types of car parts, even the costliest, like engine parts, gearboxes, steering mechanisms, and fuel systems. A highly specialised cover, this goes beyond your car insurance and service and maintenance plans.

Now, let’s unpack the most popular cars our customers are driving.

  1. Toyota

Do You Know What Your Car Warranty Should Cover?

Do You Know What Your Car Warranty Should Cover? Top 3 Things You Need To KnowAre you prepared for expensive repair costs if your vehicle suddenly breaks down? If your car is new and still covered by the Factory Warranty, you’re safe—for now. But what happens when that warranty expires?Unless you have an Extended Car Warranty when your vehicle is no longer protected by the standard Factory Warranty, you’ll be left paying hefty bills for mechanical breakdowns and electrical failures on your own.An Extended Car Warranty is your safety net against the unforeseen risk of parts failing, extending beyond the routine service plan or a wear and tear maintenance plan.However, many drivers are often left in the dark about what their car warranty covers, so we’re breaking down the top three things you need to know about your car warranty and helping you navigate the fine print.Your extended car warranty needs to cover: 1.PartsIf you don’t have spare cash to cover the cost of a new battery, water pump, clutch kit, compressor unit, or alternator, you’ll be left carless. These are some of the most common car parts prone to failure, and some of them can cost over R10,000 each, before labour.However, with an Extended Car Warranty, when your car experiences mechanical or electrical problems, you're financially protected.An Extended Car Warranty not only covers the costs of common parts but also safeguards you against the costs of repairing or replacing the most expensive components, such as complete engines and gearboxes, which can set you back tens of thousands of Rands.2.LabourWhen it comes to vehicle repairs, it's not just the cost of parts that add up—it's also the expense of skilled labour. That's why an Extended Car Warranty covers the associated labour costs.To ensure that repairs are carried out by reputable professionals, the warranty stipulates that labour must be performed by your preferred RMI (Retail Motor Industry Organisation) approved repair centre. RMI-certified professionals assure that the job will be done to the highest industry standards of quality, so you can get back on the road with confidence knowing you’re safe and protected.3.Transport & towing Towing and transportation services can be expensive if paid out of pocket, often exceeding R1 000 upfront, depending on the distance you need to travel. By having these benefits built into your motor warranty, you save a significant amount of money.With this service in place, you can breathe easier knowing that you won't be left stranded on the side of the road in the event of a breakdown. Plus, coordinating a tow or finding a rental car can be time-consuming and complicated, especially when you’re in the middle of an emergency. This service typically covers the cost of towing your vehicle to the nearest authorised repair facility, ensuring you’re not left alone to handle the logistics during a stressful situation.Roadwise Motor Warranty from DotsureMondo Financial’s RoadWise Motor Warranty, underwritten by Dotsure Limited, is regarded as one of the best Motor Warranty options available.You pay monthly based on your chosen plan, which you can cancel, upgrade, or downgrade at any time.Roadwise Motor Warranty covers up to 45 vehicle parts and pays claims directly to you within three days. It applies to newer vehicles with expired factory warranties and older vehicles, up to 15 years old or with up to 300,000 km mileage, that are more prone to mechanical and electrical issues due to wear and tear over time.Understanding your car warranty can save you and your hard-earned finances from unexpected repair costs and keep your vehicle in top shape.Secure your peace of mind with Mondo Financial’s RoadWise Motor Warranty.<Sign up today.>
