Electric Vehicle Service Contract

Coverage for those unexpected and costly breakdowns

Electric vehicles are designed with some of the most advanced technology available today. Should your electric vehicle experience a breakdown, it’s likely a specialized technician and more expensive parts will be needed to make the repair. An Electric Vehicle Service Contract can offer you a more worry-free ownership experience. It is an all-risk vehicle breakdown plan that pays to repair or replace nearly every component in your vehicle, including the high-voltage battery.

An electric vehicle service contract extends coverage beyond the manufacturer’s warranty period and often pays for repairs not covered by your manufacturer’s warranty. It also covers the cost of a rental vehicle while yours is being repaired.

Manufacturer Warranty vs Electric Vehicle Service Contract
  • An EV Service Contract provides coverage for the cost of parts and labor associated with covered repairs
  • Provides coverage for the EV high-voltage battery
  • Repair your vehicle virtually anywhere – you can have repairs made at your selling dealership or through any ASE-certified repair shop across the U.S.
  • Transferable to the next vehicle owner, offering potentially higher resale value
  • A small deductible may apply per covered repair
