A Look at Autopom’s Warranty Plans

It has a solid reputation in the car warranty industry, and that's mostly because it offers diversified protection plans to suit every driver's budget. Since Autopom’s plans are available to vehicles up to 20 model years old or with up to 200,000 miles on the odometer, they’re among the best extended warranty plans for drivers with older vehicles. Let’s dive deeper into the offerings of Autopom’s warranty.

Autopom offers 20 plans to choose from, and they’re grouped into four levels of coverage. This includes Powertrain Plus, Mid-Level, High-Level, and Exclusionary plans. The length of the coverage differs from plan to plan and mostly depends on the age of your vehicle and your location. The longest term available is eight years or 150,000 miles. 

Under the Powertrain Plus plans, you’ll be protected if anything goes wrong with the major systems of your vehicle, including the engine, transmission, drive axle, and a few other components such as basic electrical systems and air conditioning. 

It’s the least expensive option and is divided into different plans, including Royal Centennial, Omega Powertrain Enhanced, Integrity Gold, Mercury Copper MBI, and Mercury Select. Each plan offers a different level of coverage and is administered by a different vehicle service contract provider. 

The mid-level plans are an improvement on the Powertrain Plus plans and are slightly more expensive in comparison. They cover all components in the Powertrain Plus plans and also extend to the steering, fuel delivery system, braking system, suspension, and cooling.

Available plans here include the Royal Preferred, Mercury Silver MBI, and Royal Standard MBI. The last two are available only in California, while the Royal Preferred plan is available in most states in the U.S.  

High-Level plans are cost-effective plans for anyone who wants comprehensive coverage but doesn’t have the budget for the Exclusionary Plans. Some of the parts covered include the engine, transmission, drive axle, transfer case, fuel system, electrical, air conditioning, cooling, brake system, steering, suspension, and seals and gaskets. 

Available plans here include Mercury Deluxe, Mercury Gold MBI, Omega Used, Royal Premium, and Royal Premium MBI.  

Exclusionary plans are an extension of your manufacturer's warranty. They’re the most comprehensive plans available but are expensive. Instead of listing the parts covered, this plan offers only a short list of the parts not covered. So basically, it covers most of the electrical and mechanical components of your vehicle and therefore offers great value for the money. 

Available plans under this coverage include Mercury Platinum MBI (available only in California), Royal Elite Plus MBI, Integrity Platinum, Royal Ultimate, Mercury Ultimate, and Omega Exclusionary. 

One notable feature about Autopom is its customer-friendly approach to providing its warranty plans. For one, you can get a free quote directly from the website. Also, the payment terms are friendly to the customer, and you’re allowed to spread out the payment for costly plans across a period of 24 months. 

All the plans come with 24/7 roadside assistance, which includes flat tire assistance and towing services. You also get rental vehicle assistance with an expense reimbursement in case your vehicle is towed and you have to seek alternative transportation. 

When you sell your vehicle, you can transfer the remainder of the plan to the new owner. This helps to increase your vehicle's resale value. Also, if you refer Autopom to friends or family, you’ll be rewarded with a $50 Visa gift card.  

When you have a breakdown, you can take your vehicle to any licensed repair shop in the United States or Canada. This gives you full control in deciding who can service your vehicle, so you can take it to your trusted local mechanic.

It has a higher deductible than most extended warranty providers. Its down payments are priced higher than most of its competitors. If you file a claim and it gets approved, you’ll owe Autopom an up-front deductible, but it's still more affordable than paying out-of-pocket payments for repairs.

Autopom’s vehicle protection plans aren’t provided directly by the company, but instead are administered by multiple third-party providers. The warranties are administered either by the Royal Administration, EFG Group, Mercury Insurance Group, or United Car Care. Autopom acts like a middleman and only coordinates so you can get paid for your claims from the plan’s administrator. 

Lastly, not all vehicles are eligible for the coverage. Luxury brands such as Rolls-Royce, BMW, Ferrari, Bentley, Mercedes-Benz, and Audi aren’t covered.

Some of the most common issues and repair costs with regular passenger vehicles include:

The wide selection of warranty plans offered by Autopom sets it apart from other warranty providers that have only powertrain and bumper-to-bumper coverage.

A few of those questions are answered below.

Depending on the plan you select, you can get a full refund for the first 30 to 60 days if you decide to cancel the coverage.
