Also known as the "manufacturer's warranty", the "factory warranty" is issued by the car manufacturer after a purchase of a vehicle for a certain period of time. It consists of bumper-to-bumper coverage, powertrain protection, and transferability. For some car manufacturers, this warranty may also included maintenance coverage for your vehicle.
The coverage provided by the warranty is determined by time and mileage, whichever comes first. It is true to say that after the factory warranty expires, there will be no other coverage that can be this comprehensive.
