EasyCare is a Vehicle Service Contract

Car owners refer to EasyCare as an extended warranty, car repair insurance, or many names such as these:

• Car Repair Coverage
• Extended Protection Plan
• Extended Auto Warranty
• Mechanical Breakdown Coverage
• Extended Service Protection
• Extended Repair Coverage

Car, truck or SUV owners often search for EasyCare using these terms because, with EasyCare, they pay a one-time up-front fee, and get coverage for costly repairs that often occur as a vehicle ages. Owners get protection from extreme repair bills, so they think of EasyCare as insurance. Many customers also think of EasyCare as an Extended Warranty, providing repair coverage beyond what their manufacturer's warranty provides, and providing repair coverage after their manufacturer's warranty expires. However, EasyCare is (technically speaking) neither insurance nor a warranty. It's much simpler than that. EasyCare is a vehicle service agreement under which EasyCare pays your repair shop directly for covered repairs, and pays you directly for covered emergency towing, rental car, and trip interruption costs.
