Jane Tait“Had been looking for extended warranty for a few weeks when I came across clearpath, they had gained many good reviews and the cost for the warranty was very competitive. Filled in a few things and managed to get contacted from Anna, she was extremely helpful and I would say went above and beyond the call of duty, even going that extra yard to put my mind at ease. Well done Anna, keep up the great work.”

Petrol questions

Questions petrol drivers ask us.

Is the turbo covered?Yes. The turbocharger, supercharger, intercooler, wastegate and internal turbo parts are covered until the car is 7 years old or has done 80,000 miles.

Is the timing chain covered?Yes. Timing chains, sprockets, guides and tensioners are named in the cover. Timing belts (cambelts) and auxiliary belts are service items and aren’t covered.

Are ignition coils covered?Yes. Ignition coils and the electronic ignition amplifier are covered. Spark plugs are servicing items and aren’t.

Is the catalytic converter covered?No. Exhausts and catalytic converters aren’t listed in the cover, so they aren’t covered.

Can I use my own garage?Yes — any VAT-registered garage in the UK. Just call us on 020 4577 0371 before any work starts, so we can authorise the claim.

How much can I claim?Up to £3,000 per claim, with unlimited claims during your cover. Labour is paid at up to £100 an hour, and there’s a £100 excess on each valid claim.

Is there a difference between 1, 2 and 3-year cover?No. Every term gives you exactly the same cover — longer terms just cost less per year. See the plans.
