 BENEFITS
At our dealership, we want to make your next vehicle purchase an experience worth talking about. Our Global Lifetime Warranty program is REAL powertrain coverage, that lasts for as long as you own your vehicle. So, when we say FOR A LIFETIME, we mean FOR A LIFETIME!
While there is no deductible when returning to a Foundation 45 Mitsubishi; there is a fifty dollar deductible when going outside of the selling dealers. The program pays 100% of parts and labor costs anywhere in the USA! There is NO maximum mileage and NO maximum ownership term.
Buy your next vehicle with complete confidence, and never pay for repairs to the most expensive components of your vehicle. Simply complete the customary maintenance outlined in your Global Lifetime Warranty agreement and you're covered For Life!
We run all of our pre-owned vehicles through a rigorous safety and mechanical inspection. Once the vehicle passes all of our inspections, only then will it receive lifetime powertrain coverage.
