Sime Darby Auto Selection (SDAS), in collaboration with Guard My Ride (GMR) and RHB Insurance, has introduced an extended warranty programme for its pre-owned cars. Vehicles with a mileage of under 140,000 km and are less than eight years old are eligible for the programme, which is available to customers who purchase pre-owned vehicles from SDAS.
The new programme offers comprehensive warranty coverage as well as repair and service for a number of components, which are:
The extended warranty programme, which is priced between RM2,200 and RM6,900 per year depending on the vehicle age and type, also offers complimentary towing service to nationwide panel workshops for repair and servicing as well as insurance coverage and insurance underwriting.
The collaboration will see GMR being the service provider for all the extended warranty claims, towing service and repair work, while RHB insurance is the motor insurance and insurance underwriter provider. The programme can be purchased from SDAS Glenmarie; for more info, visit the SDAS website.
Looks like they plan to go head on and compete with the used car dealers and their 3rd party insurers. Not bad, competition is good.
