UPDATE: Chevrolet has streamlined extended warranty options and only offers the bumper-to-bumper Platinum Extended Warranty.

Chevy no longer offers multiple extended warranty tiers or deductible options.

What does the extended warranty cover?

Platinum

The Chevy Platinum Plan is the most comprehensive factory warranty extension offered.

It covers the cost of repairs for parts and labor on breakdowns of the engine, transmission, turbocharger, supercharger, ride control, electrical, cooling, fuel system, reverse monitoring, power tailgate lock, a/c, power windows, entertainment systems, and all other components except items on the exclusionary list.

What is not covered

Silver

No longer available

Thank you Chevy! The Platinum Warranty is so much better.

The Chevy Silver Plan looked good at first glance, but did not cover nearly as many components as the Platinum Plan and often led to owner frustration of non-covered repairs and out-of-pocket expenses down the road.

It wasn't a bad choice for a base model Cruze, if the price was right, but for a fully loaded Silverado or Traverse the Platinum Plan was easily worth the extra premium.

How much is the repair copay?

UPDATE: The all new Platinum Extended Warranty now has $0 deductible!

Chevy priorly offered three deductible copay options: $0, $100, and $100 disappearing.

The disappearing deductible was appealing because the copay disappeared when returning to the original dealer and was only charged when repairs were done at a different location.

Not anymore!

Now, no matter what dealer you choose, the deductible is $0.

When does it begin and end?

Chevy discloses the term differently now too!

Priorly, the length of the extended warranty was stated including the bumper-to-bumper warranty, meaning a 5 year plan would give you 2 extra years after the 3 year bumper-to-bumper warranty expired.

Now Chevy discloses the term in addition to the factory warranty, meaning if you buy a 3 year 36,000 mile extended warranty at zero miles, then you will have 6 years or 72,000 miles of full repair coverage.

Check your factory warranty start date to understand when it ends, and the Platinum extended warranty begins.

How much does the Chevrolet Platinum Warranty cost?

Retail Market Value
$0 Deductible:

2 Years | 24,000 Miles: $2155
3 Years | 36,000 Miles: $3060
4 Years | 48,000 Miles: $3690
5 Years | 60,000 Miles: $3920

Prices may vary for commercial and private usage, location of purchase, vehicle model, and equipment.

How much does a Chevy Silverado Truck Warranty cost?

Light duty Chevy trucks, like the Silverado 1500, have the same platinum warranty cost as other Chevy models.

Medium duty, heavy duty, and commercial truck warranties cost 10% to 20% more depending on usage and location.

Where can I buy the Chevy Extended Warranty?

You can buy the extended warranty online, but it’s a good idea to check with your local dealer first.

Customer satisfaction ratings are higher for owners who receive repairs from the same dealership where the policy was purchased.

Is a 3rd party extended warranty worth considering?

Yes.

For some owners this may be a better choice. Here's why:

Recently, one of our writers took his Chevy Silverado to a local dealer for a water pump and waited 2 hours to drop it off.

Then he waited 3 days to get it back.

He wanted to go to another mechanic instead, but was only authorized to use Chevy mechanics with his Chevy factory plan.

In other words, if you get better service from a mechanic outside the dealership, then a 3rd party extended warranty is worth considering.

If your local dealership is friendly and efficient, then stick to the factory plan and buy it from them.
