Porsche Warranty Options
F&I Tools Review
Porsche Factory Warranty is 4 years or 50,000 miles of bumper-to-bumper repairs on malfunctions caused by defective parts installed at the manufacturing plant.
Rust perforating through the paint from the inside out is protected by a 12 year unlimited mileage factory warranty. This is one of the longest paint warranties in the automotive industry and shows Porsche’s confidence in its workmanship.
Spare parts purchased after ownership are covered by a 2 year unlimited mileage Porsche factory warranty.

Spare parts purchased after ownership are covered by a 2 year unlimited mileage Porsche factory warranty.
If something malfunctions in the first 4 years of ownership it will be repaired free of charge, after that it will be extremely expensive to repair your Porsche unless you have an extended warranty.
Porsche offers two options for owners who want a factory-backed extended warranty through Porsche Vehicle Service Protection (VSP).

What do the Porsche Extended Warranty Options cover?
- Option 1: The VSP Platinum Plan is the best extended warranty Porsche offers. It covers the engine, transmission, all-wheel drive, high performance, racing parts, climate controls, fuel system, electrical system, power group, navigation, audio, computers, and almost everything else on the vehicle except normal wear items like tires and trim.
- Option 2: The VSP Powertrain extension covers the engine, transmission, and drive axle only. Many repairs are not covered by this option. The Platinum Plan is worth the extra cost considering it covers thousands of components that the Powertrain Plan does not cover.

How much is the repair copay?
Porsche offers two options of deductible copay: $100 disappearing or $250. Many owners choose the $250 deductible because the plan has a lower upfront cost, however the $100 deductible is a better value. The $100 copay is waived when owners return to the dealer where they bought the plan, effectively becoming a $0 copay! This means every little repair can be claimed free of charge. Therefore, the F&I Tools Review finds the Porsche VSP Platinum Extended Warranty with $100 disappearing deductible the best bang for the buck!

Insider tip
There are two benefits to buying the Porsche extended warranty from the dealership you plan to return to for repairs:
- The $100 copay is waived when you return to the same dealer you bought the plan from.
- Dealers have greater monetary incentive to accommodate repeat customers to comply with strict guidelines surveyed by the manufacturer. One good survey from you can save the dealership thousands of dollars in manufacturer bonuses. One bad survey can have the opposite effect. Mention that you like to complete surveys with good marks when you begin your service visit.
Does the Porsche Extended Warranty transfer when I sell my car?
