Most buyers wouldn’t expect a used car to have warranty coverage, especially if it’s over five years old, and for some, that is why they steer away from used cars. That is why CARSOME provides a one-year extended warranty on all our cars. So when you buy a CARSOME Certified car, you don’t have to worry if it still has its principal warranty or not.
Furthermore, the extended warranty comes at no extra cost as its price is already included in the price of all our cars. Let’s take a look at what you get with a CARSOME extended warranty and how to claim it.

All costs including inspection and repairs will be covered by Allianz so you won’t need to worry about them. Once your car is fixed, the workshop will contact you to arrange for a pick-up.
