What to check before you buy
Request the complete form for your state, a copy of the payment schedule and a contact number you can verify independently. Ask whether advertised benefits are in the quoted plan or require a different option.
Work through your own numbers
Make one line for each unresolved item: seller identity, exact form, final price and payment recipient. If the sales page and the written offer disagree, get a corrected quote before checking out.
For a closer look, see our related buying guide. The FTC’s auto warranty and service contract guide explains what to review before signing.
