Essential Coverage

Enhanced Powertrain

Essential Coverage

Solid protection for your vehicle's most critical systems. Enhanced Powertrain covers the engine, transmission, and adds essential components that basic plans miss.

More Than Basic, Less Than Premium

Enhanced Powertrain bridges the gap between basic powertrain coverage and comprehensive plans.

Your engine and transmission are the heart of your vehicle — and the most expensive to repair. Enhanced Powertrain starts with complete powertrain protection and adds coverage for other essential systems that are commonly needed: air conditioning, electrical components, and more.

This plan is ideal for drivers who want more than the bare minimum but don't need every component covered. It provides meaningful protection at a price point that fits more budgets.

Covered Components

Enhanced Powertrain protects these critical systems.

Engine

  • • All internally lubricated parts
  • • Cylinder block and heads
  • • Pistons, rings, and bearings
  • • Timing chain/belt assembly
  • • Oil pump and water pump

Transmission

  • • All internal parts
  • • Torque converter
  • • Valve body
  • • Transmission case
  • • Input/output shafts

Drive Axle

  • • Front and rear differentials
  • • Axle shafts
  • • CV joints
  • • Universal joints
  • • Transfer case (4WD/AWD)

Air Conditioning

  • • Compressor
  • • Condenser
  • • Evaporator
  • • Expansion valve
  • • Accumulator

Cooling System

  • • Radiator

  • • Thermostat
  • • Cooling fans
  • • Heater core

Additional Coverage

  • • Starter motor
  • • Alternator
  • • Fuel pump
  • • Turbo/supercharger
  • • Select electrical components

Why Enhanced Over Basic Powertrain?

Basic Powertrain Only

  • Engine internals
  • Transmission internals
  • Drive axle
  • No AC coverage
  • No electrical coverage
  • No cooling system

Enhanced Powertrain

  • Engine internals
  • Transmission internals
  • Drive axle
  • Air conditioning system
  • Starter & alternator
  • Complete cooling system

Real Cost Savings

An AC compressor replacement can cost $1,500-$2,500. An alternator is $500-$1,000. Enhanced Powertrain adds these protections for a modest increase over basic coverage — often paying for itself with a single repair.

Included Benefits

Every Enhanced Powertrain plan includes these valuable extras.

Rental Car Coverage

Up to $40/day for up to 5 days

24-Hour Roadside

Towing, jump starts, lockout service

Trip Interruption
