Friendly For Life Lifetime Powertrain Warranty
PROTECTION FOR LIFE
"Every time we shake a client's hand, we are making a pledge to stand behind the car we just sold. Our Friendly For Life Lifetime Powertrain Warranty helps us keep that promise, and gives our clients confidence they can trust in us."
- Eric Kahn, President & CEO of Friendly Auto Group
NO LIMITS, NO RESTRICTIONS
It's getting harder and harder to find companies who are trustworthy, who will stand behind the work they do, who will look out for you when there's a problem. At Friendly Auto Group, we know how large of an impact reliability and dependability have on our clients. That's why we're introducing our exclusive Friendly For Life Lifetime Powertrain Warranty. It's aimed at bringing you comfort and peace of mind for as long as you own your vehicle.
Purchasing a vehicle for you and your family -- whether you choose a new Acura or a pre-owned vehicle -- is an exciting occasion. But let's face it. Maintaining your vehicle can be a major concern, especially if you plan to own it for a long time.
While factory warranties are bound by time limits and mileage restrictions (for example: 3 years/36,000 miles), our Friendly For Life Lifetime Powertrain Warranty protects you from costly repairs to your vehicle's most critical parts no matter how long you own your vehicle or how many miles you drive.
IT'S ON THE HOUSE.
Every new Acura purchased here at Friendly Acura is automatically equipped with our Friendly For Life Lifetime Powertrain Warranty at no charge. Free, gratis, complimentary, on the house. So you can enjoy all the precision crafted performance with unparalleled confidence for years to come.
Our Friendly For Life Lifetime Powertrain Warranty is also included on Asian and domestic make pre-owned vehicles that are 5 model years old or newer and have been driven less than 55,000 miles. Again, at no charge, so you can drive worry-free for as long as you own your vehicle.
NOT-SO-FINE PRINT
Our Friendly For Life Lifetime Powertrain Warranty isn't included on new vehicle leases, but only because leases are required to be returned to us within a designated time frame; you don't need a lifetime warranty if you're only driving your vehicle for a contractually-obligated period of time. Additionally, we are unable to offer our Friendly For Life Lifetime Powertrain Warranty on pre-owned European makes at this time. The Subaru WRX, Lincoln MKC, and Ford Escape are also excluded. Other models may be excluded as well, so please check with us if you have any questions. Emergency, commercial, rideshare, or fleet vehicles are also excluded from our Friendly For Life Lifetime Powertrain Warranty. There is also a nominal $100 deductible.
FAQs
What is a powertrain, and why does it need to be protected?
The powertrain is made up of all the components that power your vehicle and make it run from Point A to Point B. This includes the engine, transmission, and the drive line (front-wheel, rear-wheel, or all-wheel drive), as well as all of the parts that make up these sections of the vehicle. All of these sections of powertrain, and the parts that make them up, are covered in the Friendly For Life Lifetime Powertrain Warranty.
Which vehicles come with the Friendly For Life Lifetime Powertrain Warranty?
The Friendly For Life Lifetime Powertrain Warranty applies to every new vehicle purchase. It also applies to select pre-owned vehicles that are 5 model years old or newer with under 55,000 miles, and have passed our Friendly For Life certification process.
How long is the Friendly For Life Powertrain Warranty really good for?
The Friendly For Life Lifetime Powertrain Warranty is valid for as long as you own the vehicle, no matter how long that turns out to be. There's also no limit on the number of miles you can drive. "Lifetime" really does mean "lifetime".
