E Q U A T O R S P E C I F I C A T I O N S

Why is it America’s #1? It’s the only 100,000-mile/7-year powertrain limited

warranty around that doesn’t have a deductible and is fully transferable for the

life of the warranty. That’s huge, and that’s why the other guys don’t talk about

deductibles and transfer capability. No deductible means covered repairs are

covered—you don’t pay anything for parts and labor. Fully transferable means the

warranty can pass from one owner to the next, increasing resale and trade-in

value when it’s time to buy your next car. With coverage extended for 100,000

miles or 7 years, whichever comes ﬁrst, you can average a more than reasonable

14,000 miles per year. The strength of this long-term powertrain protection is

compounded by a 36,000-mile/3-year new-vehicle limited warranty that also has

no deductible and covers everything from the dome light to the exhaust pipe

(except the battery, which is covered for 24,000 miles, and tires, which are

covered by the tire manufacturer’s warranty), and includes comprehensive

24-hour Roadside Assistance as well as a convenient Courtesy Vehicle Program.

So...that’s why we can say it’s America’s #1. Sounds good, doesn’t it!
