Help Protect Your Budget From Unexpected Vehicle Repair Costs

Mechanical Repair Coverage may help pay for eligible repairs when a covered mechanical breakdown occurs. Coverage options, terms, deductibles, and exclusions vary, so our loan team can help you review what is available for your vehicle.


What Is Mechanical Repair Coverage?

Mechanical Repair Coverage, also known as an extended warranty service contract, may help cover eligible repair costs after the manufacturer’s warranty expires or when a covered repair is needed.

Coverage is designed to help reduce unexpected out-of-pocket repair costs and may be included in your auto loan payment, if eligible.


Coverage Options

Depending on your vehicle and eligibility, you may be able to choose:

  • Coverage level 

  • Coverage term 

  • Deductible option 

  • Eligible repair facility 

  • Additional benefits included with the plan 

Coverage options may vary based on vehicle age, mileage, loan terms, selected plan, and provider requirements.


Additional Benefits May Include

Mechanical Repair Coverage may include additional benefits such as:

  • 24/7 roadside assistance 

  • Tire road hazard coverage 

  • Trip interruption assistance 

  • Rental vehicle assistance 

  • Choice of eligible repair facility 

  • Cancellation with any applicable pro-rated refund of unearned amount 

Benefits vary by plan and are subject to the service contract.


Why Consider Mechanical Repair Coverage?

Major vehicle repairs can be expensive, especially after the manufacturer’s warranty expires. Mechanical Repair Coverage may help reduce the financial impact of eligible covered repairs and provide added protection as your vehicle ages.

Coverage obtained through GTFCU may also be a cost-effective alternative to some dealer plans. Contact our loan team to compare options before you decide.


What to Review Before You Buy

Before purchasing coverage, review the service contract carefully so you understand:

  • What parts and systems are covered 

  • What repairs or conditions are excluded 

  • Deductible amount 

  • Claim process 

  • Approved repair facility requirements 

  • Roadside, rental, and trip interruption limits 

  • Cancellation and refund terms


How to Get Coverage

Ask your GTFCU loan representative about Mechanical Repair Coverage when financing your vehicle.
