What is not covered by a Honda warranty?
I recently bought a Honda Accord, and while I know it’s covered by a warranty, I’m a little unclear about the specifics. What is and isn’t covered by my Honda warranty?

The standard limited warranty that you received when you bought your
Honda
from the dealership is also known as bumper-to-bumper coverage. While a Honda warranty covers nearly every component in your car, it won’t replace them if they are damaged by misuse, vandalism, or an accident. The standard Honda
limited warranty
lasts for three years or 36,000 miles, whichever threshold you reach first. During this time, any Honda component that fails through no fault of your own is covered and can be replaced.Your powertrain warranty will last a little longer, usually for five years or $60,000. This type of warranty only covers your engine and transmission. Any other components in your car will be your responsibility after three years or 36,000 miles.
Some common components you may need to replace in the first three years include:
The battery
The brake system
The oil pump
When you buy a Honda, you do have the option to pay for an extended warranty that will make your bumper-to-bumper coverage last longer. It’s generally not a great idea, as you’ll rarely get your money’s worth from this type of warranty.
Unlike an extended warranty,
full-coverage car insurance
is usually a pretty good investment. Jerry is a car insurance comparison app that can help you find affordable coverage in under a minute.On average, Jerry users save over $800 on car insurance each year.
