A new car is a significant investment. Before committing to a purchase, it’s natural for the customer to seek assurances in case anything goes wrong with their vehicle down the road. The comparative strength of the standard new Cadillac warranty, which ranks above Audi, BMW, and Mercedes in Motor 1’s latest review, demonstrates the quality of every vehicle offered at Service, your Cadillac dealer in Lafayette, LA. Just what is included in Cadillac’s 2021 new vehicle warranty? Have a look.

What Is the Standard Cadillac Warranty Bumper-to-Bumper Coverage?

Like its three competitors from Germany, Cadillac offers a four-year/50,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty on all models. This covers virtually everything from the front bumper to the rear with the exception of certain parts that naturally wear out quicker, such as tires, brake pads, and windshield wipers, as well as routine maintenance tasks like oil changes, and tire rotation.

Powertrain Warranty

Audi, BMW, and Mercedes-Benz all match their bumper-to-bumper warranties with four-year/50,000-mile warranties on the powertrain. Cadillac proudly exceeds that standard by offering a six-year/70,000-mile warranty on the engine, transmission, drive-shaft, and differential in every new vehicle.

Parts and Service From a Cadillac Dealer

If your vehicle must undergo warrantied service, any new parts bring separate warranties. New brakes, rotors, alternators, and starters feature two-year warranties with no mileage limit. Other parts, such as for the chassis, electronic fuel pumps, ignition wire sets, radiators, shock absorbers and struts, and wheel or hub bearings, come with limited lifetime warranties. Labor costs are warrantied for 24 months when Genuine AC/Delco parts are installed or 12 months if less expensive AC/Delco Advantage parts are used.

Corrosion Coverage

Although many new Cadillacs are destined for warm-weather states, rain, heat, and sunlight can inflict damage as well. Consequently, corrosion protection is standard in every vehicle that leaves the factory floor. All body and sheet metal components in your new Cadillac come with a warranty against rust for four years and 50,000 miles and against holes caused by rust for six years with no limit on mileage.

Roadside Assistance in Lafayette, LA

Cadillac is proud to offer free roadside assistance for six years or 70,000 miles. The current emergency assistance package offers towing from a legal roadway to the nearest dealer, replacing a flat tire with your spare, jumpstarting the battery, trip interruption and planning services, unlocking the vehicle, and fuel delivery. Costs for fuel, a new tire, or making and/or providing a replacement key, if needed, are not included.

Transferring the Warranty to a New Owner

If you sell your new Cadillac while it is still under warranty, all benefits transfer to the new owner at no charge.
At Service Cadillac, our philosophy is written into our name, but you can’t provide unsurpassed service to the customer if you don’t offer an excellent product. We’re proud to stand behind the entire Cadillac line and the standard new car warranty is the proof in the pudding. Come into Service Cadillac for a test drive now.
