Exclusionary Auto Warranty: The Strongest Coverage in 2025

What Is an Exclusionary Auto Warranty?

An exclusionary auto warranty (sometimes called “bumper-to-bumper”) works differently than other warranty types. Instead of listing what is covered, it lists only what’s not covered.

That means everything else—from your engine to your electronics—is included.

What Does Exclusionary Coverage Include?

Exclusionary warranties cover almost every major part and system in your vehicle, such as:

• Engine and transmission

• Drivetrain and axles

• Electrical and computer modules

• Suspension and steering

• Heating, cooling, and A/C systems

• Infotainment and navigation systems

This makes it the closest coverage option to driving a brand-new car off the lot.

What Isn’t Covered?

Even the best exclusionary auto warranties don’t cover:

• Routine maintenance (oil changes, tires, brake pads, wipers)

• Cosmetic items (paint, trim, upholstery)

• Wear-and-tear parts like bulbs or filters

But compared to inclusionary warranties or powertrain warranties, the exclusion list is short.

Why Exclusionary Is the Best Choice

With vehicles more complex than ever, even “small” repairs can cost thousands. An exclusionary auto warranty gives you peace of mind knowing nearly everything is covered—without having to read through a long list of components.

Avoid Robodialer Gimmicks

Call centers and robodialers often promise “full coverage” but deliver watered-down contracts filled with loopholes. These plans:

• Leave out expensive systems like electronics or A/C

• Add hidden exclusions buried in fine print

• Overcharge with inflated monthly payments

That’s not real exclusionary coverage—it’s a scam.
