You, the contract holder, pay the applicable deductible listed on the contract.

And, any number of the following benefits that may be applicable to the plan you purchased:
- Towing – If required by the failure of a covered component
- Rental Reimbursement – if related to the failure of a covered component.
- Roadside Assistance – including towing, battery service, flat tire change, lock out, fuel, oil, fluid and water delivery

Your Responsibilty
As the vehicle owner and the mechanical service contract holder:
- Read and review the terms and conditions of the service contract.
- Verify that the name, address and vehicle description in the “Purchaser” section is correct.
- Check the sections “Years” and “miles” to make certain the proper coverage and term is noted.
- Complete the required vehicle maintenance – as noted in the owner’s manual or established by manufacturer standards. A claim may be denied if proper maintenance has not been performed and/or receipts for maintenance work cannot be produced.
- Follow the claim procedures outlined here and in your service agreement when filing a claim.
Remember, whenever possible, always take your vehicle to the selling dealer for routine maintenance and mechanical repair – regardless of whether or not the work is covered by the service agreement.
