All brand-new Nissans include three years or 36,000 miles of limited vehicle coverage and five years or 60,000 miles of limited powertrain coverage. This coverage is meant to guarantee that no part of your new car is defective but does not guarantee car parts for the lifetime of your ownership. Nissan owners that plan to keep their vehicles for more than five years might think about purchasing an extended warranty to save on potential expenses. With so many items to consider when it comes to choosing extended warranty coverage, you might feel overwhelmed.
Nissan Factory Warranty
Every new Nissan vehicle comes with a Nissan factory warranty that is often referred to as “bumper-to-bumper” coverage. This coverage is meant to give you peace of mind that your wallet is protected should your new vehicle experience an unexpected breakdown. This Nissan warranty includes the following coverage:
- 3-year/36,000-mile limited warranty: This Basic Coverage warranty covers the repairs needed to correct defects in materials or workmanship of parts original to the Nissan vehicle within 3 years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first.
- 5-year/60,000-mile limited powertrain warranty: This warranty covers the Nissan vehicle’s major systems, such as the transmission, engine, and drive systems, original to the vehicle or supplied by Nissan. The limited powertrain coverage includes engine parts, as well, such as the oil pump, water pump, and fuel pump.
- 10-year/120,000-mile warranty extension: This warranty is included for some 2003-2010 vehicles that have a continuously variable transmission (also known as CVT limited warranty extension).
- 5-year/unlimited mile corrosion coverage: This warranty covers perforation from corrosion, meaning any body sheet panel that has rusted through.
Nissan Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) Limited Warranty
Nissan certified pre-owned warranty coverage gives drivers 7 years/100,000 miles of powertrain protection. The warranty starts from the vehicle’s in-service date. This means that if your CPO Nissan is already three years old when you purchase it, only four years of coverage remain. The powertrain limited warranty covers the engine, transmission, and drive axle. If a covered component related to one of these parts fails or breaks within the warranty period, you can have it repaired or replaced at a Nissan dealership. This warranty is transferable to new owners if you sell your CPO Nissan before your coverage period expires. Additionally, for the length of the warranty, CPO Nissan drivers have access to car rental reimbursement and Nissan roadside assistance, which covers services such as towing assistance, flat-tire changes, fuel deliveries, battery jump-starts, and lockout services.
