Your dealership recommends Opteven

Your dealer recommends Safe & Sound® warranties from Opteven because they know we cover the parts that matter and pay out quickly on claims. When you purchase a warranty you will receive an email with your full terms and conditions, along with your Agreement Schedule. These detail coverage at a component level so it’s easy to work with us if you need to make a claim. And don’t worry – if you sell your car before the policy expires, you can transfer the warranty to the new owner. Just let us know.
