Premier Auto Protect launches a new car warranty plan designed to help first-time and young vehicle owners budget for unexpected repair costs nationwide.
-- NEW YORK CITY, NY — Premier Auto Protect, a provider of vehicle service contracts, announced the introduction of a new protection plan aimed specifically at first-time and young vehicle owners, offering a car warranty option intended to help newer drivers plan for unexpected mechanical repairs. The plan became available this month and is positioned as an entry-level alternative for buyers who have recently purchased their first car and have limited experience budgeting for maintenance outside a manufacturer warranty. Company representatives said the plan was developed in response to inquiries from younger customers seeking predictable repair coverage as their vehicles move beyond factory protection periods. The offering is available to drivers nationwide regardless of vehicle make or financing arrangement.
The average age of vehicles on U.S. roads reached 12.6 years in 2024, according to data from S&P Global Mobility, underscoring how long many owners now keep cars in service well past the expiration of original manufacturer coverage. For first-time buyers, unplanned repair costs can surface earlier than expected, particularly for those simultaneously managing a first auto loan and other new monthly expenses. Premier Auto Protect said interest in extended vehicle coverage among younger and first-time drivers has grown as more owners look for ways to plan around irregular repair expenses rather than absorb them as one-time financial shocks.
The new plan is structured with tiered coverage levels, allowing first-time owners to select protection ranging from basic powertrain components, including the engine, transmission, and drive axle assemblies, to broader mechanical and electrical systems, as budgets and vehicle needs allow. Repairs under the plan can be completed at any ASE-certified repair facility nationwide, removing the requirement to use a dealership service center. The plan also includes standard benefits such as roadside assistance, towing coverage, and rental vehicle reimbursement while a covered vehicle is being repaired.
“Many new car owners have never had to plan for a major repair bill on their own, and this plan was built to give them a clearer, more manageable way to prepare for that,” said Michael Grant, Director of Customer Relations at Premier Auto Protect.
