New Cars With the Best Warranties

April 25, 2013

Let's face facts - cars can break down at any moment. It's just the way it is. So when you're shopping for a new car, it's smart to pay attention to the warranty.

However, with all the auto manufacturers out there, it's hard to tell who has the best warranty on the market. Luckily BankRate.com has done some of the leg work for us. Here's their list of the seven auto makers with the best warranties based on basic, powertrain, corrosion and roadside assistance coverage.

3 Steps Every Car Buyer Needs to Take to Save Maximum Money

The key to getting the best deal is to gather price or lease bids from as many local dealers as possible. Then shop that best price around until no one can beat it. Here are the steps:

Step 1 Get Prices From My Trusted Network

Select the vehicle you're interested in to see if there are local dealers in my network who will provide you with their best upfront price. You will get direct access to an internet sales manager who you can further negotiate with online (no need to visit dealership).

Select Vehicle to Get Local Pricing

Step 2 Get Prices From TrueCar / CarsDirect

TrueCar, and CarsDirect are my top 2 online price quote recommendations. These services show you pre-negotiated prices from dealers closest to you - and the deals are usually pretty decent. But remember, you can still negotiate further.

Step 3 Complete my Checklist

Follow this up with my checklist to make sure you squeeze out every last bit of savings.
