Cost and coverage

Which repair costs could coverage help with?

Tires wear out through normal use, so routine replacement falls outside ordinary mechanical-breakdown protection. Coverage for road hazards is a separate purchase.

This category contains one benchmark, with parts running from $500 to $1,800.

Modeled labor ranges from 0.8 to 2 hours. At the $148 median metro rate, that is roughly $118 to $295 before parts.

Compare a road-hazard plan with the replacement price and claim limit. Do not count routine tire replacement as a saving from an extended auto warranty.
