FAQs
We’ve answered some of the most important Buick Protection questions so you can make the best decision for you and your vehicle. For more assistance, call 833-959-0104.
What makes a Protection Plan different than a manufacturer’s limited warranty?
“Warranty” and “Protection Plan” refer to different coverages and benefits. GM’s Bumper-to-Bumper Limited Warranty covers specified vehicle repairs and parts and labor to correct defects in materials or workmanship. The Buick Protection Plan provides additional protection on top of the manufacturer’s limited warranty for your Buick’s engine, steering, and more.
What is the benefit of purchasing a Buick Protection Plan?
A Buick Protection Plan is the only coverage backed by Buick. It gives you coverage you can count on, with additional benefits on the road so you can drive confidently.
Can I purchase a Buick Protection Plan on top of my manufacturer's warranty?
Yes, it's easy to add additional Buick-backed coverage on top of your existing manufacturer's warranty. With three (3) coverage options, customizable contract terms and deductibles, and coverage on up to 1,500 parts, you can help protect yourself from unexpected and potentially costly covered repairs. Plan coverage runs concurrently with any applicable manufacturer warranties. For more details and pricing information, talk to your dealer.
How do I know which Buick Protection Plan is right for me?
Find the level of protection that fits your lifestyle with Powertrain, Silver, and Platinum coverage options. You can also choose the term and deductible that works for you. Platinum coverage terms, for example, are available for up to 8 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first. The Buick Protection Plan covers up to 1,500 parts and components on your vehicle, depending on what plan you select. See your dealer for assistance in finding the right plan for you.
How do I purchase a Buick Protection Plan?
You can purchase a Buick Protection Plan, the only Protection Plan backed by Buick, at a participating dealer through their Finance & Insurance office, either at the time of your vehicle purchase or within your manufacturer's limited warranty period.
I didn't purchase a Protection Plan at the time of my vehicle purchase. Is it too late?
A Buick Protection Plan may be purchased after the time of vehicle sale if the vehicle is still within the manufacturer's limited warranty period by at least 1,000 miles or 30 days prior to expiration, whichever comes first. Contact your selling dealer to discuss available plans, prices, and terms
When does my Buick Protection contract begin and end?
The term covered by the Buick Protection Vehicle Service Contract begins on your contract purchase date and mileage (which may be subject to a waiting period) and ends at the mileage option you selected. This information can be found on your Vehicle Service Contract Agreement in the Protection Plan Agreement Information Section. Contact your selling dealer for questions regarding your plan and plan coverage.
How do I file a claim?
The first step is to contact the claims team at 833-959-0104 (Monday to Friday, 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., and Saturday, 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. ET). They are here to assist you in filing a claim and finding a licensed repair facility. Claims must be approved in advance, or the claim could be denied. Please have a copy of your Customer Agreement available.
What if I want to cancel my Protection Plan?
You can cancel for a full refund of the Agreement Retail Price within thirty (30) days of the Agreement Purchase Date (or the expiration of any applicable Waiting Period) if no claims have been paid. Just provide the administrator or seller with written notice of your request to cancel, along with a current mileage statement. Please see Agreement for complete cancellation info or call 833-959-0104 for more information.
