Buying a car, whether new or pre-owned, is one thing. Keeping it protected from unexpected repairs is another. Many drivers assume their vehicle is “fully covered” by warranty, only to find out (when something breaks) that a crucial part is not included. At GMR, we’ve helped hundreds of car owners avoid this exact scenario by offering transparent, reliable extended warranty plans that truly protect what matters.

So, how do you ensure your car parts are covered by warranty? Let’s break it down, and show how GMR Warranty gives Malaysian drivers peace of mind every day.

The Common Problem: “I Thought It Was Covered!”

We often hear this: A customer comes in with a gearbox issue, turbo failure, or air conditioning breakdown, only to discover that their warranty (often from a basic plan or dealer-limited coverage) doesn’t include these high-cost items.

The problem isn’t just the breakdown, it’s the surprise of having no protection when you need it most.

That’s why understanding your warranty’s coverage is as important as the car itself.

Step 1: Know What a Basic Warranty Usually Covers

Manufacturer or dealer warranties, especially on used cars, often come with limited coverage. Most only include engine and transmission, but exclude key components like:

• Turbocharger
• ECU (Electronic Control Unit)
• ABS Module
• Air-conditioning system
• Sensors & wiring
• Steering components
• Cooling system

In other words, many of the parts are most likely to fail as the car ages.

Step 2: Choose an Extended Warranty That Lists Covered Parts Clearly

At GMR, we believe in full transparency. That’s why every warranty plan we offer, whether Basic, Pro, or Ace, comes with a clear list of covered parts. You’ll know upfront exactly what’s protected, how claims work, and what’s excluded.

No confusing terms. No fine print. Just real coverage for real-world problems.

Real Protection: How GMR Has Helped Malaysian Drivers

Here’s how we’ve helped thousands of customers:

• A customer’s used car, a Honda Civic turbo unit, failed just 3 months after purchase. Total repair cost: over RM6,000. With the GMR Pro plan, the full repair was covered, no stress, no delays.
• Another customer’s ABS failed on a BMW, causing the brake warning light to appear. Most warranties don’t include electronics. But GMR did, saving them over RM7,800 in parts and labour.
• We have many cases where the ECU and gearbox valve body failed, and yes, with our extended warranty in place, GMR paid the bill.

Every claim we handle is a reminder that the right warranty makes a difference.

Step 3: Get Covered Before It’s Too Late

Warranty protection must be activated while your car is still running properly. Once there’s a breakdown, it’s too late to apply.

If you’re buying a car from Sime Darby Auto Selection (SDAS), it’s the perfect time to pair your purchase with a GMR Warranty. One click, one plan, and you’re fully protected.

Final Word: If It’s Important to Drive, It’s Important to Protect

Cars today are more advanced than ever, but that also means more parts that can fail, and more expensive repairs. That’s why at GMR, we don’t just offer warranty plans. We offer protection for your peace of mind, your savings, and your everyday mobility.
