All new cars come with factory warranty coverage, but that protection only lasts so long. After the warranty period, which typically lasts around  3 years or 36,000 miles of powertrain protection, you’re left on your own to pay for repairs. If you are a used car buyer, you may never benefit from the original factory coverage. Even new car buyers are often surprised when an unexpected repair is not covered by the factory warranty in the early years of car ownership. Extended warranties fill that gap with coverage for common auto repairs, and when you’re facing the prospect of having to spend thousands of dollars to get your car back on the road, you want to know that the warranty company you choose has your back. 

Welcome to Fair. We offer a range of coverage options that protect you against unexpected expenses that all owners face throughout their vehicle’s life. Our technology-driven approach eliminates the hassles that come with other warranty providers and makes the process smoother and faster for all parties involved. With Fair, you can expect a harassment-free experience without robocalls, endless spam emails, and no expensive celebrity endorsements. Our focus is on your peace of mind and keeping you on the road with more money in your pocket.

How a Fair Extended Warranty Works

The Fair process is simple: Select the plan that works best for you. We offer three coverage options ranging from essential powertrain protection to a more comprehensive option that includes warranty coverage for components like the drive axle and transfer case. Unlike many in the industry, Fair’s sign-up process is online and does not require a lengthy phone conversation or back-and-forth emails with multiple departments who don’t communicate with each other. 

You can also count on respect for your privacy. Once you’ve submitted your information, we only use that data to build a quote that fits your vehicle, coverage needs, and budget. Fair will never hound you on the phone or by email, even if you decide that another option is better for your lifestyle. Deciding on a Fair coverage option is easy, and after the initial signup process, we’ll ask for your vehicle identification number (VIN) and mileage. Coverage begins after an industry-standard 30-day/1,000-mile waiting period to ensure there are no preexisting conditions with your vehicle.

Fair breaks the mold of extended warranty companies with business practices that prioritize you, your vehicle, and the community. Our automated claims process removes the middle people, speeding up your repairs and subsequent payments, and the AI-driven approach tailors each interaction to the specific situation you’re facing. There are no aggressive sales tactics with “buy now or regret later” pitches, and we never spend money on endorsements of any kind. 

Many extended warranty providers lean on a third-party company for claims administration, including handling your calls and paying for repairs, but Fair’s claims are handled in-house to maximize the security of your personal information and reduce the amount of time you’re stuck waiting for a fix. We offer complete transparency of denied claims, so there will never be a time when you’re unsure of your coverage options. Finally, we invest our surplus profits to continue to grow our premium pool ensuring alignment with drivers.

Standard

With our Standard plan, we build on the basic powertrain coverage with additional components for extra protection.

All extended warranties come with exclusions, even the most protective plans. None of Fair’s plans cover wear and tear items like brake pads and rotors, engine oil and filters, windshield wipers, and tires. We also exclude preexisting conditions, so while your car doesn’t have to be in showroom condition, it should be free of mechanical problems before signing up for a warranty plan. Finally, Fair’s plans don’t cover vehicle modifications, including aftermarket turbochargers, cold air intakes, performance suspension systems, and more. 

Best practice is to make sure that vehicles follow their regular maintenance intervals and keep records where you can.

Frequently Asked Questions

Get to know more about the Fair difference.

‍

Can I cancel my Fair warranty at any time?

Yes, you can cancel at any time. We offer a Money-Back Guarantee, so if you cancel within 30 days, you’ll receive a full refund. Cancellations outside of the first month will be issued on a prorated basis.

What does “technology-driven” mean? Can I talk to a person?

Our technology is used to accelerate the signup and claims process. It fills the gaps between members and service providers, but it never replaces a real, caring person when you need one. Feel free to call us or to schedule an appointment through our website.

‍

What does Fair do with my data? Do you sell it to third parties?

Your data is protected with Fair, and we never sell specificly targeted information to outside companies for any reason.

‍

I have a high-mileage car. Can I still get a Fair warranty?

Yes, Fair’s plans are available for cars with up to 150,000 miles and 10 model years old.

‍

Why do you have a waiting period to use new warranty coverage?

The 30-day and 1,000-mile waiting period is in place to prevent immediate coverage for vehicles with preexisting conditions. You’re completely covered and can file claims at any time after this standard waiting period.
