PLATINUM COVERAGE

All risk comprehensive coverage.

Under this All Risk Comprehensive Coverage plan, we* will repair any breakdown except for items listed below under "What This Agreement Does Not Cover."

*We refers to the insurer.

What This Agreement Does Not Cover

We will not pay for costs covered by any warranty of the manufacturer, or a repairer's guarantee regardless of whether they honor such warranty or guarantee.

This Plan also Does Not Cover:

The maintenance services and parts described in the Manufacturer's Maintenance Schedule for your car, other normal maintenance services and parts including engine tune up, (includes spark plugs, ignition wires, distributor cap and rotor), carburetor, EGR valve, batteries, filters, lubricants or fluids, air conditioning refrigerant, engine coolant, all hoses and belts (not specifically listed), brake pads and shoes, brake rotors and drums, suspension alignment, tires, wheel balancing, shock absorbers, exhaust system, friction clutch disc and pressure plate, and clutch throw out bearing.

Also Excluded from Plan Coverage are:

Glass, glass framework, and fastening adhesives, sealed beams, light bulbs, lenses, trim, moldings, bright metal, upholstery, paint, sheet metal, body panels, structural framework, structural welds and wiper blades, aftermarket accessories or non-original equipment, components and systems not installed by the manufacturer, examples include: anti-theft systems, radio/speaker equipment, telephones, cruise control and sunroof.

Additional Items Not Covered by the Plan:

Costs incurred to improve operating performance as a result of normal wear and tear. This includes: valve grind(s) and/or piston ring replacement(s) designed to improve engine compression or reduce oil consumption, and diminished performance due to normal wear of MacPherson strut suspension components.

We will not repair, replace, adjust, or align a non-covered component unless its failure is caused by the breakdown of a covered part.

In addition, we will not pay benefits:

  • When repairs are performed without prior authorization.


  • For expenses charged for the disposal of environmentally unsafe materials. For expenses charged for non-specific materials or shop supplies. To correct a cosmetic imperfection.


  • For a breakdown resulting from the failure of a non-covered component.


  • For a breakdown caused by or involving collision, fire, theft, vandalism, riot, explosion, lightning, earthquake, windstorm, hail, water freezing or flood.


  • For loss of time, inconvenience, lodging, food, storage, or other consequential loss or damage that results from a breakdown.


  • For a breakdown caused by abuse, misuse, alterations or lack of customary maintenance as recommended in the manufacturer's maintenance schedule for your car.


  • For damage caused or contributed to by operating a vehicle that does not have proper levels or specification (type) of fluids, lubricants or coolant.


  • For a breakdown caused or contributed to by the use of contaminated fluids.


  • For a breakdown caused by rust or weather-related corrosion if your car's odometer has been stopped, altered or misrepresents actual mileage.


  • For a breakdown that existed prior to the Date Issued.


  • For a breakdown caused by towing a trailer or another vehicle, unless your car is equipped for this as recommended by the manufacturer.


  • For a breakdown caused by using your car for racing or other competition.


  • For a breakdown caused by or involving modifications unless those modifications were performed by the manufacturer.


  • If your vehicle has been modified to plow snow, we will not pay benefits whether the snow plow blade is attached to the vehicle or not.


  • If your car is used for commercial purposes or is a truck rated more than one ton. Examples of commercial use are: police car or emergency vehicle, hauling, construction (other than driving to and from work), deliveries, daily rentals, carry passengers for hire, snowplowing.


  • For any consequential or incidental damage or loss should your car be involved in a collision caused by or involving a breakdown of a component covered by this Agreement.
