Mechanical Insurance / Add-on warranty

Get covered past the manufacturer warranty.

Carwrapped2

If you are buying your car from Expat Auto, Asia Care as a warranty add-on option goes beyond the standard Expat Auto limited local warranty. 

If you didn’t buy your car from us you can still purchase Asia Care as mechanical insurance.  An AsiaCare Warranty can be bought at any time of the vehicle’s lifespan up to 10 years old or 200,000km

Vehicles lose their protection when the manufacturer’s warranty expires. If a problem occurs, it can result in high repair costs and the risk of problems increases over time as the vehicle gets older.

Asia Care warranty (mechanical insurance) provides an extra level of peace of mind so you can drive with the comfort of knowing you are covered in an unpleasant situation, like an unexpected problem with your vehicle, for the cost of repair/replacement of a covered component anywhere in the country.

Put mechanical or electrical failure protection in the hands of the experts with a nationwide network of manufacturer's dealerships – all of which will repair and replace any covered parts with their expertise and guarantees.

Car insurance typically covers damage caused to your vehicle by an accident, theft, fire and other natural disasters. AsiaCare Warranty plans are in place to repair the covered mechanical or electrical failures of your vehicle if they break down under normal use after the original manufacturer's warranty has expired. Another way to think about the AsiaCare Warranty is that it is HEALTHCARE for your vehicle.

It is not necessary to check the condition of the car before purchasing AsiaCare, but it is recommended that you provide a history of service or at least the latest check from the manufacture service center (or B-Quick) to attach with the application documents to avoid any potential claim issues (see note below).

 

* Note: If the customer never has a history of periodic checks You can buy our products as well, but there is a limitation that "in the event of a claim", the service center needs to request to check the damage before repairing.  If the damage that is found occurred before insuring auto parts with AsiaCare Warranty the insurance company has the right to deny that coverage.
