No, you are not required to pay for covered repairs out of pocket. All repairs are paid via credit card by the program administrator. Please be sure, however, that all repairs are authorized prior to the repair being completed. Unauthorized repairs will not be covered.
What if I need to be towed or need a rental car while my vehicle is being repaired?
Towing and rental car coverage is not provided by your Warranty Forever® agreement. However, if you purchased an extended service contract, your contract will most likely provide that coverage for you.

Why do I have to do all recommended services?
Proper maintenance to any mechanical component is the best preventative measure in reducing future breakdowns. That is the reason we ask that you use these guidelines.
Why is my dealership suggesting additional maintenance services?
Manufacturers only require a minimum level of services to be performed and will often list them in the owner's manual. Your driving conditions and environmental conditions can demand additional service work be performed to keep your vehicle performing at peak levels. While you are only required to complete the minimum services outlined in your Warranty Forever® agreement, we strongly encourage you to follow your dealership's recommendations when being offered additional services.
Can I change my own oil?
No. All services must be performed by a professional service facility. This is to ensure proper documentation, as well as the workmanship of the services performed on your vehicle. See your Warranty Forever® agreement for complete details on customary maintenance requirements.
What is a professional service facility?
Any service facility that has a license to do business. The facility must be able to provide a detailed repair order that contains the pertinent information regarding the services performed.
Do I have to use an ASE certified facility?
No, however, we strongly recommend it. ASE technicians are certified through a national non-profit organization to ensure the technicians competency in many areas of the automotive industry.
