Warranty Information
Our warranty starts with the NAPA AutoCare Peace of Mind Warranty, good for 12 months or 12,000 miles. Then Olde 8 takes you even further, extending this warranty for two more years or 24,000 more miles to be a 36 month or 36,000 mile warranty on our work at any NAPA AutoCare Center nationwide.
Lots of folks like the peace of mind of having even more coverage, and purchase an extended warranty for their vehicles. An extended warranty can make sure any vehicle is always safe and reliable. On the other hand, they can be expensive and they're not for everyone. In some cases though, the pay back and convenience is worth it.
If you are thinking about purchasing an extended warranty, please consult us first. Sometimes the paperwork can be confusing, and since we work with these companies often, we can help you decide which warranty would fit your vehicle the best.
