Free F&I Tool from F&IQ
Show customers, in one simple graph, how their driving decides when factory coverage really ends. Start with the VIN — we’ll decode the vehicle and load its factory warranty. Then add the in-service date, odometer and miles driven per year, and print a one-page copy for the customer.
Bumper-to-Bumper (Basic) — Covers most vehicle components from front to rear, excluding wear items like tires and brake pads. Typically the shortest coverage period.
Powertrain — Covers the engine, transmission, and drivetrain. Usually longer than bumper-to-bumper and the most expensive repairs if something goes wrong.
Anti-Corrosion / Rust-Through — Covers perforation from corrosion originating inside the metal panels. Cosmetic rust is typically not covered.
Roadside Assistance — Covers towing, flat tires, lockout, and fuel delivery. Coverage period often matches bumper-to-bumper, not powertrain.
Federal Emissions — Federally mandated 8-year/80,000-mile coverage for major emissions components. Required by law — not a brand differentiator.
EV Battery — Electric and hybrid vehicle batteries have separate coverage, typically 8 years/100,000 miles. Some manufacturers guarantee minimum battery capacity (e.g., 70%).
What's NOT covered: Wear items (brakes, tires, wiper blades, filters), damage from accidents or misuse, modifications, commercial use restrictions, and repairs needed after coverage expires — regardless of mileage.
Every factory warranty ends at its time limit or its mileage limit — whichever comes first. Most customers only hear “3 years / 36,000 miles” and assume they have three years. A customer driving 18,000 miles a year will run out of miles in about two.
The Factory Warranty Graph turns the customer’s own numbers into a picture they can understand at a glance: what they’ve already used, what’s left at their pace, and how much time their mileage takes away. It’s an honest, visual way to start the coverage conversation in the F&I box — and the customer leaves with a clean one-page copy.
