FCA regulations require a firm wishing to sell or advise general insurance products to be Authorised and Regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).

We are directly authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. You can check this on the FCA’s Register by visiting the Financial Conduct Authority website, which contains a link to a register of all regulated firms, can be visited at www.fca.org.uk.

Click4Warranty is a trading style of Future 45 Limited
Company registration number. 5407413
Data protection register number. Z933878X
Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) No. 461102
Member of the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS).

If you are unhappy with any aspect of the products or service we provide, you have the right to refer the complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service who will give an unbiased answer about what’s happened. If the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) decide someone’s been treated unfairly, they have legal powers to put things right.

All Click4Warranty warranties are an insurance backed policy that provides protection against the cost of parts and labour following the mechanical or electrical failure of an insured part and is supported by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) and protected by the Financial Ombudsman Service.

Not with Click4Warranty.  Regrettably consumers are starting to fall foul of web-sites advertising "uninsured plans". The legal doctrine that covers an uninsured plan is "caveat emptor" (let the buyer beware).

No, absolutely not. The Insurer appoints a policy administrator (claims department) who is provided with the Insurers authority to act on their behalf.

Unlike small companies who are unable to provide insured cover, this is essential as, when you have many thousands of policy holders, it is totally impractical to consult underwriters on individual claims.

The UK’s statutory compensation scheme for customers of authorised financial services firms. The FSCS can pay compensation if a firm is unable, or likely to be unable, to pay claims against it. It is an independent body, set up under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (FSMA), and is funded by a levy on "authorised financial services firms".

FSCS is free to consumers and, since 2001, has helped more than 4.5 million people and paid out more than £26 billion.

EXAMPLE: On the 28th July 2016, the FSCS declared Enterprise Insurance Company PLC in default, and is working closely with the liquidator to establish the best way to help its policyholders. If the FSCS establishes Enterprise cannot meet the cost of claims made against it, they will protect UK policyholders.

We have a duty of care to our policy holders and strive to ensure we are transparent at all times delivering exceptional customer service online and offline. Therefore we take any complaint seriously, if we got it wrong we will put it right.

However the final decision doesn't rest with us. If you don't agree with our decision, you have the right to make a complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service.

The Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) settles disputes between consumers and UK-based businesses providing financial services. They make decisions based on what it believes to be fair and reasonable and it is they that have the final decision, not us or a representative of our company. The service is free to consumers.

If you have a partial service history, no proof of service or your car has not been serviced by a VAT registered garage in the last 12 months... No problem!

We keep it simple, purchase your policy and ensure you have a service done by a VAT registered garage within 21 days or 500 miles. Your car will be covered the moment the service is completed and we'll only require proof if you have a claim.

If you don't want to go to the expense of a full service, you can just ask your vat registered garage to carry out the following check
1 Change engine oil and filter.
2 Check oil levels in the gearbox and differential and top up where necessary.
3 Check coolant level and anti-freeze/inhibitor strength. Top up where necessary.
4 Check timing belt [if fitted], renew if necessary.
5 Brake fluid must be replaced in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendation.

Once on cover, either follow the manufacturers service schedule or the 5 point check at intervals of 6 months or 6,000 miles (whichever is the sooner).
For more detailed information see our guide - SERVICING

3, 4 and 5 star, whatever the age or mileage of your car, your protection starts day one.

This is standard for all our policy holders, no additional premium is required, no 90 day exclusion clause.

If the fault is covered, and you have acted within the terms of your policy, your claim will be authorised!

Included in the premium, whatever the age, whatever the mileage, without exception, is cover for wear and tear FROM DAY ONE. There is nothing extra to pay.

"Wear and tear is the expected gradual reduction or deterioration in operating performance due to the mileage of a car"

Every Click4Warranty includes protection against both "mechanical breakdown" and "wear and tear", so your Click4Warranty policy WILL pay toward the cost of repairs if an insured part fails as a result of "wear and tear".

For more detailed information see our guide - WEAR AND TEAR

Safety of our policy holders is paramount, so claims will be considered in normal way and we do not expect you to continue driving your car, if an insured part is identified as likely to suffer breakdown by a suitably qualified engineer during MOT.

Claims considered in normal way for insured parts identified as likely to suffer breakdown by a suitably qualified engineer during routine service

All Click4Warranty policies provide affordable cover toward the cost of mechanical and electrical failure of insured parts, labour and vat for repair or replacement following breakdown of insured parts up to your chosen claim limit.

All click4Warranty policies will provide up to £100 toward recovery cost if a breakdown is a result of failure of an insured part and if you do not have cover elsewhere.

All Click4Warranty policies include up to 60 days per annum [pro rata] for driving in the Republic of Ireland and mainland Europe for repair or replacement following breakdown of insured parts up to your chosen claim limit.

All Click4Warranty policies include car hire. We will pay up to the daily limit in your policy schedule (including VAT) for up to seven days towards the cost of hiring a replacement car. We will only pay for a replacement vehicle if your vehicle is being repaired under the terms of your warranty. We don't pay for a replacement vehicle for the first 24 hours your vehicle is out of use or in respect of any lack of availability of the correct parts or delays the repairer may have in starting the repairs.

All Click4Warranty policies include a contribution towards the cost of overnight accommodation if your car cannot be fixed in first 24 hours and breakdown is a result of failure of an insured part and if you do not have cover elsewhere.

All Click4Warranty policies include a contribution towards the cost of rail faires if your car cannot be fixed in first 24 hours and breakdown is a result of failure of an insured part and if you do not have cover elsewhere.

We have appointed the UK’s leading independent car service and repair network, Halfords Autocentres, as our approved repairer. With more ATA trained mechanics than any other independent garage, and hundreds of repair centres nationwide, Halfords Autocentres can ensure our policy holders receive the same high standard of service throughout the UK.

Repairs carried out at the approved repairer are guaranteed for 12 months or 12,000 miles and, whenever possible, we settle the bill with them directly so you aren't out of pocket.

The click4Warranty standard excess is just £10 per claim

Whether your car has covered 1,000 or 150,000 miles, no increase in premium. Why should you be penalised BEFORE making a claim!?

If the fault is covered by your policy, and you have acted within the terms of your policy, your claim will be authorised from day one... even if it's due to wear and tear!

Click4Warranty policies have no limit on the annual mileage you drive.
If the fault is covered by your policy, and you have acted within the terms of your policy, your claim will be authorised from day one... even if it's due to wear and tear!

All Click4Warranty policies have a choice of three substantial claim limits £3,000, £5,000 and £7,000

All Click4Warranty policies can be purchased for one, two or three years.

You can make an unlimited number of claims and we will apply the single claim limit to each claim. The maximum amount we will pay "in total" during the term of the policy is set at the Glass's Guide retail value of your car at the time of claim.

With more ATA trained mechanics than any other independent garage, and hundreds of repair centres nationwide, Halfords Autocentres can ensure our policy holders receive the same high standard of service throughout the UK.

Repairs carried out at the approved repairer are guaranteed for 12 months or 12,000 miles and, whenever possible, we settle the bill with them directly so you aren't out of pocket.

Whatever age your car, our policies are distinctive because betterment applies only to cars over 60,000 miles. This means if you have a 10 year old, 50,000 mile car - no betterment contribution! If the fault is covered by your policy, and you have acted within the terms of your policy, your claim will be authorised from day one... even if it's due to wear and tear!

Repairs are guaranteed for the sooner of 12 months or 12000 miles and the standard claim excess is just £10.

If the fault is covered by your policy, and you have acted within the terms of your policy, your claim will be authorised from day one... even if it's due to wear and tear!

If the fault is covered by your policy, and you have acted within the terms of your policy, your claim will be authorised from day one... even if it's due to wear and tear!

Repairs are guaranteed for the sooner of 12 months or 12000 miles and the standard claim excess is just £10.

You benefit from all the protection of our polices at no extra premium, the standard excess remains at just £10.

If you do make a valid claim, a "betterment" contribution is required.

This is not hidden in the terms and serves to catagorically highlight valid claims are covered regardless of mileage. Betterment Example

Using the head gasket as an example and assume it takes 5 hours to complete the repair.
REPAIR................................ Head gasket
LABOUR TIME....................... 5 hours
TOTAL RETAIL REPAIR COST..... £700 inc vat

In this example, £700 is the retail cost and amount you would pay for the repair without a Click4Warranty policy.

STEP ONE
A discount is applied due to the shere volume of business we place, the total cost of the repair in this example would be reduced to £400

STEP TWO
We calculate the betterment percentage depending on the mileage of your vehicle.
- Up to 60,000 miles - zero
- Up to 70,000 miles - 10%
- Up to 80,000 miles - 20%
- Up to 90,000 miles - 30%
- Up to 100,000 miles - 40%
- Over 100,000 miles - 50%

STEP THREE
The betterment is calculated on the discounted repair cost, in this example £400. Making the contribution as follows
- Up to 70,000 miles £40
- Up to 80,000 miles £80
- Up to 90,000 miles £120
- Up to 100,000 miles £160
- Over 100,000 miles £200

As you can see, even if your vehicle has covered over 100,000 miles, your contribution would be just £200. A vast saving on the £700 you would have to pay without our policy!

We have a duty of care to our customers and work be transparent at all times. Our goal is to provide value for our policy holders and deliver exceptional customer service online and offline.

We appreciate however that on occasion we may get it wrong and endeavour to recognise mistakes so they are not repeated to improve our service.

If you have any concern about the service we've provided, please follow the complaints procedure to ensure your query is dealt with as efficiently as possible.

We endeavour to resolve any regulated complaint as soon as possible, when a complaint is received our consultants send an acknowledgement by email that will detail who is handling the complaint

Whilst Click4Warranty always look to resolve your complaint in the quickest time possible, in accordance with guidelines laid down by the Financial Conduct Authority, we must write to you with a final response to your complaint within eight weeks of receiving your complaint.

The Ombudsman.

In deciding whether or not to uphold a complaint, we will consider any relevant guidance published by the Financial Conduct Authority, the Financial Ombudsman Service and any other relevant regulatory guidance previously published.

Should you remain unhappy with our final response, you have the right to refer the complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service. We will provide you with details of the Financial Ombudsman Service, along with a copy of their leaflet ‘Your Complaint and the Ombudsman’ and a statement confirming that an approach can be made to the Financial Ombudsman Service.

Thanks to direct and returning customers, we avoid cost of advertising with "partners", newspapers, motoring sites... a cost that increases premium with no benefit to you!

We don't endorse garages charging outlandishly high labour rates and pushing up the premium to every policy holder

We monitor the insured claim fund directly, allowing us to ensure premiums are set correctly in real time

Approved repairer
We have appointed the UK’s leading independent car service and repair network, Halfords Autocentres, as our approved repairer. With more ATA trained mechanics than any other independent garage, and hundreds of repair centres nationwide, Halfords Autocentres can ensure our policy holders receive the same high standard of service throughout the UK.

Repairs carried out at the approved repairer are guaranteed for 12 months or 12,000 miles and, whenever possible, we settle the bill with them directly so you aren't out of pocket.

Your own repairer
We appreciate you may have built up a trust with your tried and tested local garage and, as long as they are vat registered, we do indeed provide the option for you to use your own repairer. However, although you are free to use your preferred repairer, as repairs completed by an independent garage do not affect a vehicles service history, when faced with unexpected breakdown policy holders usually opt to use the approved repairer for fast, convenient and reliable repair.

Many policy holders breakdown away from home and their preferred garage.  With hundreds of garages throughout the UK, the approved repairer provides fast repairs.

The claim technician will locate the nearest approved repairer and liaise with them on your behalf.
We will settle authorise claims with the approved repairer directly whenever possible.

Repairs carried out by the approved repairer are guaranteed for up to 12 months, so if a repair isn't satisfactory, it is not your responsibility or cost to resolve.

If you do prefer to nominate your own repairer, simply contact the Administrator for authority before work starts. The policy will, subject to the policy type and claim limit selected at time of purchase, pay up to a reasonable vat registered repairer’s retail price for parts, the labour times as set out by ICME (Institute of Chartered Mechanical Engineers), the labour rate of our approved repairer

"Repairs completed by an independent garage do not affect a vehicles service history"

Click4Warranty stands on the side of the consumer and does not endorse any practice that unjustifiably drives up the cost of repairs. As such the average retail labour rate of our approved repairs is in line with the UK average.

When a warranty provider accepts above average hourly rates, the cost will always result in higher premiums for like for like cover and why should you pay more for a warranty because a claim paid £200 an hour to another policy holder!?

As you would expect, due to the volume of repairs carried out every week, the policy labour rate substantially discounts the £100 average rate per hour individuals would pay. One more reason why we can offer such affordable protection without compromising cover.

When a valid claim is authorised, the labour rate of our approved repairer for the repair or replacement of parts listed in the policy type you selected, (subject to the claim limit) is currently.
£57.60 per hour (inc vat) if the repair is completed inside the M25
£48.00 per hour (inc vat) if the repair is completed outside the M25
Repairs carried out at our approved repairer, will cover the hourly labour rate in full if your car has covered less than 60,000 miles. Only if your vehicle has covered over 60,000 miles is a "betterment" contribution required.

If you prefer to use your own repairer, the labour content of any claim will be commensurate with the discounted labour rates of our approved repairer, the standard ICME (Institute of Chartered Mechanical Engineers) repair times, subject to the policy type, claim limit and mileage of your vehicle.

IF you prefer not to pay in one go, we offer a unique monthly payment facility which allows you to spread the cost of any one, two or three year policy by paying a 20% deposit followed by 9 monthly payments.
- No credit check
- No direct debit requirement
- No credit agreement
- No change in premium if interest rates increase

Your monthly payment is collected on the first working day of each month from your original payment card.

Click4Warranty never charge for policy amendments at any time and we give you 21 days to cancel with full refund (assuming of course you haven’t submitted a claim).

Drawing attention to important limitations could lead to you looking for an alternative warranty. However, we're confident our policies will stand the test and provide outstanding affordable cover for likely failure. The limitations in our policies are typical across most warranty providers, the Click4Warranty difference is we will never endorse misleading claims or tactical advertising. Our ethical approach means our policy holders stay with us, or return when they are suprised by another providers small print at point of claim!

Click4Warranty calculate the labour content of a claim in accordance with the standard ICME (Institute of Chartered Mechanical Engineers) repair times. ICME is used by most leading repairers and warranty companies.

On occasions, the ICME repair time include diagnostic. For example parts such as ECU, depending on the fault, could need to be plugged in for diagnostic as part of the repair. In fact, we do include reasonable diagnostics when calculating repair times.

However, most people understand diagnostic to be when the repairer has to dismantle the car to find the fault and warranty terms in general will require you to give your permission to carry out any fault finding/diagnosis or dismantling necessary.

In view of this, we don't believe it ethical to say we cover diagnostic, at best it's incorrect and could even be deemed to be deliberately misleading

Not all warranty companies share our ethical approach, check the small print for terms like "Your Plan will pay for diagnostic or dismantling work only if assessed by us as being reasonable within the Repair Cost of a valid repair. It is your responsibility to authorise (at your own expense) any diagnostic or dismantling of any part of your Vehicle."

Click4Warranty offer cover for the parts that commonly cause overheating, these include...
Engine cooling system
Thermostat Water pump
Thermostatically controlled radiator fan motor
Radiator
Cylinder head gasket

Warranty companies will in their terms require you to undertake a duty of care. This will include your not continuing to drive the car if the vehicle is faulty.

That being the case, as to the best of our knowledge it's not possible for your car to overheat with the engine switched off, is it correct to advertise specifically that overheating is covered?

For this reason, although we cover the parts listed above, we don't advertise overheating is covered.

Items you might replace during routine service such as tyres, brake pads, oil filters/fluid changes, bulbs, etc.
The first £10 of every claim
Pre-existing faults
Consequential damage
Electric hoods
There is a betterment contribution for cars over 60,000 miles but not related to the age.
Timing belts, but only if they haven't been changed in line with the manufacturers schedule
Batteries, but we do cover the distributor
Clutch parts are covered, but not if they're burnt or worn out.
Diesel particulate filter (DPF), as damage is generally caused by the way the car is driven
Modifications
Damage to paintwork and glass
Claims if you haven't serviced your car correctly during cover
Grey imports, taxi, courier etc.
Vehicles over 12 years old (cover stops when the vehicle reaches 12 years old)
Vehicles over 150,000 miles (cover stops when the vehicle reaches 150,000 miles)
Vehicles with less than 28 days valid MOT at time of policy purchase
Faults caused by overheating, but we do cover the parts that may cause it like the water pump and radiator
If cause of a failure isn't apparent diagnostics, but they are included if listed in the ICME mechanical repair times. This is the industry standard comprehensive data providing vehicle manufacturers' recommended repair times.

Absolutely yes, now is the perfect time to put your cover in place.

By acting now, you’ll be able to buy tomorrows warranty at todays price.

Your Click4Warranty policy will start from the date commencing immediately after expiry of the manufacturers' guarantee or warranty period. So it's wise to buy your warranty as early as possible, even when you buy the car.

There is no need to advise us of the Manufacturers policy, that will all be taken care of by the service records at point of claim… even if that is in two years time.

In accordance with our terms and conditions, you are fully entitled to cancel your policy and receive a refund in full of the premium paid subject to the following.

A warranty is a valuable tool if you decide to sell your car, therefore we are delighted to confirm the warranty may be transferred to the new owner if you decide to sell your car.

If you sell your car, and wish to transfer the policy, all you need to do is email us with full details of your policy and the new owners name and address.

A £25 contribution from you toward the administration costs will be required, this can be paid by debit or credit card.

Conditions do apply, for example we cannot transfer the policy if you sell your car to a motor dealer and the warranty cannot of course be transferred to another vehicle.

Yes, we are delighted to confirm that you are free to use your own repairer if you prefer to do so.

Simply contact the Administrator for authority before work starts. We will pay up to a reasonable vat registered

repairer’s retail price for parts, labour times as set out by ICME (Institute of Chartered Mechanical Engineers) and up to the labour rate of our approved repairers Halfords Autocentre (currently 57.60 pounds per hour inside the M25 / 48 pounds per hour outside the M25).

Yes, all Click4Warranty policies provide protection for Parallel Import cars (cars that have been produced for a European Member State and that conform to European Wide Type Approval).

However. cover is not provided for Grey Imports (a vehicle that does not comply with European Union vehicle type specification and which is imported from outside the UK, usually Japan).

Wear and tear is the expected reduction in performance of a part due to the cars age, mileage and/or use.

Many warranty providers exclude wear and tear, even the major ones! This means that even when the part is covered, the provider has the right to refuse the claim as, depending on the mileage, age and/or use, the breakdown can be attributed to wear and tear.

Be aware, failure can often be attributed to wear and tear as parts often wear down rather than break. If you really want to protect yourself against rejection of a claim you want a warranty that clearly states in the terms and conditions both “mechanical breakdown” and wear and tear are covered as standard.

CLICK4WARRANTY INCLUDES COVER FOR WEAR AND TEAR AS STANDARD

Click4Warranty includes protection against both mechanical breakdown and wear and tear, so your Click4Warranty policy WILL pay toward the cost of repairs if a part fails as a result of “wear and tear”.

Sometimes this means your car is in a better condition than it was before the breakdown. If this is the case we will ask you to pay a contribution toward the cost of repairs.

Most warranty providers increase the premium for high mileage cars, exclude wear and tear completely or impose a 90 day exclusion.

Click4Warranty does not increase the premium for high mileage cars and we include cover for wear and tear as standard– from day one!

Why should a high mileage driver be penalised before they make a claim? We are distinctive and fair in the way we treat high mileage cars.

HOW WE HANDLE WEAR AND TEAR CLAIMS:
We cover wear and tear from the first day of cover. If you make a valid claim that is attributable to wear and tear, and your car has covered less than 60,000 miles, we will cover the claim in full (up to your chosen claim limit.)

However, if your vehicle has covered more than 60,000 miles it’s not unreasonable to suggest that if, for example, your gearbox was repaired the car is actually in better condition after the repair than it was before. In this instance we would call for a contribution toward the repair costs. For example, if your car has covered 67,000 miles, we would require a 10% contribution i.e. on a £350 claim, you would be required to pay just £35.

As with all aspects of our products and service, we aim to provide clear information. The table below shows the contribution toward the cost of repair you will be required to pay depending on the mileage of your car at point of breakdown.

Up to 60,000 miles no contribution required
Up to 70,000 miles 10%
Up to 80,000 miles 20%
Up to 90,000 miles 30%
Up to 100,000 miles 40%
Over 100,000 miles 50%

Full details can be found in section 6 of our Terms & Conditions

A direct-shift gearbox, commonly abbreviated to DSG, is an electronically controlled dual-clutch multiple-shaft manual gearbox, in a transaxle design without a conventional clutch pedal.
In simple terms, a DSG is two separate manual gearboxes (and clutches), contained within one housing, and working as one unit.

Subject to your chosen policy limits, your Click4Warranty policy will pay toward the costs of parts and labour for repair or replacement of listed components of the gearbox cover, however your policy excludes DSG specific components.

Unfortunately as an SMG gearbox is not a standard automatic or manual gearbox, it is precluded from the protection of our Click4Warranty policies.

Firstly lets explain what consequential loss or damage means.

It’s a term used to mean damage to a previously fully functioning part caused by another part, object or debris.

All Click4Warranty policies DO provide cover if a LISTED PART (insured component) breaks causes a previously fully functioning LISTED PART (insured component) to fail.

Listed parts (insured components) are not covered if they are damaged by an uninsured part and, as with all warranty insurance, uninsured parts are never covered as a result of any consequential loss or damage.

The Click4Warranty Mechanical Breakdown Insurance is designed to pay towards the costs of parts and labor for repairs following the actual and sudden mechanical failure of a part causing a sudden stoppage of its function and which necessitates repair or replacement to resume those functions. As such our policies don’t cover vehicle structure (eg bodywork, paintwork, glass, wheels, tyres etc.) Please see policy terms and conditions for a full listing of these exclusions.

We do however appreciate that many manufacturers give unique names to components, so if our chart doesn’t provide a clear answer to your question please reply to this email with your specific requirement and we will do our best to research and provide an answer for you as soon as possible.

Click4Warranty offer one Mechanical Breakdown Insurance Policy, with one clear set of terms and benefits. It's just part of our commitment to providing a simple solution to warranty requirements. The star rating indicates the extent of components that are insured.

As the name would suggest, the 5 star policy offers the most comprehensive cover with the highest number of insured components.

Click the link "INSURED PARTS" at the top of this page for a full and complete listing of insured components under our 3, 4 and 5 star policies.

Unfortunately the Vanos Unit is not a listed component under the terms of our warranty cover and therefore, any claim relating to this part will not be authorised.

Unlike many warranty providers, we steer away from broad statements about the parts covered by our policies. The statement ‘all mechanical and electrical components’ means you need to laboriously work out what really is excluded.

Instead, you will see our terms and conditions comprehensively list the insured parts and, quite simply, if a part isn’t listed it isn’t covered.

We are delighted to confirm that the dual mass flywheel is a listed component on the Click4Warranty 3, 4 and 5 Star policies.

Unlike many warranty providers, we steer away from broad statements about the parts covered by our policies. To describe cover as ‘all mechanical and electrical components’ really means that, if you want to be sure a part is covered, you need to laboriously work out what really is excluded.

Instead, you will see our terms and conditions comprehensively list the insured parts and, quite simply, if a part isn’t listed it isn’t covered... If it is listed, then the part is covered!

If you require further clarification please email us with your specific requirements and we will do our best to research and provide an answer for you as soon as possible.

Diagnostics are paid when included in the ICME repair time. The ICME is the Institute of Chartered Mechanical Engineers. For the majority of common repairs, the ICME assign an individual repair time for how long that particular repair should take. If the diagnostics are included in this repair time, then they would also be covered as part of your claim.

Click4Warranty have no hidden clauses imposing waiting periods. Your car is covered from day one and you can submit a valid claim immediately after inception of the policy.

Some other companies don't pay for a breakdown that occurs in the first 30, 60 or even 90 days of cover! This means a 12 month policy may only provide cover for as little as 9 months! Worth checking the small print.

Please note that in the unlikely event your claim is within the first 30 days and in relation to the ecu, air-conditioning and electrical system, an additional excess will apply. This additional excess applies for the first 30 days only.

The Subaru Impreza P1/WRX models are excluded from cover under the Click4Warranty policy terms.

Unfortunately, the catalityc converter is not a listed component under the terms of our warranty cover and therefore any claim relating to this part will not be authorised.

Unlike many warranty providers, we steer away from broad statements about the parts covered by our policies. To describe cover as all mechanical and electrical components really means that, if you want to be sure a part is covered, you need to laboriously work out what really is excluded.

Instead, you will see our terms and conditions comprehensively list the insured parts and, quite simply, if a part isnt listed it isnt covered... If it is listed, then the part is covered!

Click4Warranty provide a choice of three claim limits... £3,000, £5,000 and £7,000.

Whichever the amount chosen, this represents the maximum amount that can be claimed for each breakdown. The amount of claims that can be made is unlimited.

Please note also, that the total amount that will be settled during the course of the policy term is the Glass's Guide retail value of the car.

The Click4Warranty Mechanical Breakdown Insurance is suitable for cars that have covered up to 150,000 miles.

Most warranty providers increase the premium for high mileage cars, Click4Warranty does not. Why should a high mileage driver be penalised before they make a claim? We are distinctive and fair in the way we treat high mileage cars.

If your car has covered less than 60,000 miles, we will settle valid claims for insured components in full (up to your chosen claim limit.)

However, if your vehicle has covered more than 60,000 miles it’s not unreasonable to suggest that if, for example, your gearbox was repaired the car is actually in better condition after the repair than it was before. In this instance we would call for a contribution toward the repair costs. For example, if your car has covered 67,000 miles, we would require a 10% contribution i.e. on a £350 claim, you would be required to pay just £35.

As with all aspects of our products and service, we aim to provide clear information. The table below shows the contribution toward the cost of repair you will be required to pay depending on the mileage of your car at point of breakdown.

Up to 60,000 miles no contribution required
Up to 70,000 miles 10%
Up to 80,000 miles 20%
Up to 90,000 miles 30%
Up to 100,000 miles 40%
Over 100,000 miles 50%

Click4Warranty policies do not cover for any part of LPG systems and if an LPG part damages an insured component a claim will not be accepted; if an insured part fails and damages an LPG component the LPG part cannot be claimed.

In other words, we can offer warranties on these cars, but claims would not be accepted for any consequential damage to the LPG system cause by the failure of an insured part or for damage to an insured part where an LPG component was deemed to be the cause of the failure.

If the service history for your car is missing or incomplete your vehicle is not excluded from cover.

Simply ensure a service is carried out within 21 days or 500 miles of the policy start date.

You have the choice to carry out a service in accordance with the manufacturers specification or, if you don’t wish to go to the expense of a full service, there is an alternative 5 point check set out in the policy. See our SERVICE GUIDE for more details of the service requirements

Being stranded without the use of a car is a major inconvenience. So our Warranty includes free car hire in the event of a breakdown for up to 7 days while your car is being repaired.

Obviously certain conditions apply, such as it must be a valid claim and you need approval from us before you claim.

All the conditions are clearly listed in section 5 of our Terms and Conditions.

IPT stand for Insurance Premium Tax. This is a government tax introduced 1st October 1994 and applies to general insurance policies including motor, household, medical, income replacement, travel and other protection cover.

We are delighted to confirm that all our quoted premiums include IPT.

Unlike many other providers, rather than making ambiguous statements like all mechanical and electrical components we prefer to provide a clear, comprehensive list of insured parts. With Click4Warranty you don't need to study an exclusions list to work out what the warranty won't pay for.

The link INSURED PARTS at the top of this page provides a simple chart that clearly lists the components insured under our 3, 4 and 5 star policies.

We do however appreciate that many manufacturers give unique names to components, so if our chart doesn't provide a clear answer to your question please e-mail email@click4warranty.co.uk with your specific question and we will do our best to research and provide a clear answer for you as soon as possible.
