eBay Motors is a vast marketplace for car enthusiasts seeking high-quality auto parts at a great price. While there are countless bargains to be found, you might wonder if some of the amazing deals are, well, just too good to be true. Many sellers offer compelling warranties. But is there any way to protect yourself if a newly purchased part stops working just as the warranty expires? In a word: yes.
Fortunately, eBay shoppers buying used auto parts can be protected by plans offered by Assurant, a global leader in extended service contracts. With Assurant’s affordable protection plans, you will receive repair service or reimbursement on covered repairs for items like a used alternator or rebuilt engine purchased on eBay.
- These plans cover mechanical and operational breakdowns on new and used auto parts up to $5,000.
- Clients are reimbursed for purchases of $500 or less with a digital eBay gift card. Items above $500 may be repaired or a check will be mailed as reimbursement. Products over $500 may require an inspection.
- Protection plans do not cover auto parts that are consumable in nature, such as batteries.
All claims and reimbursement are handled through an easy, 24/7 online customer care center. This ensures that customers receive fast and convenient service. Claims are processed the same day, with many customers receiving a reimbursement as quickly as one hour.
“eBay shoppers may be hesitant to purchase some automotive products online because the parts are expensive or perhaps they have some uncertainty about quality,” said Sree Menon, general manager of eBay Motors. “Thanks to our partnership with Assurant, customers who may be spending hundreds of dollars on a used part can complete the purchase with a sense of safety and security.”
eBay shoppers place a lot of value on Assurant Protection Plans. “Local stores offer a limited warranty that’s only good a few days after purchase,” said one Assurant Protection Plan customer, C. G. “But Assurant guarantees you for the year and the price of coverage is unbelievably reasonable.”
“I was amazed at how fast I received my gift card for the reimbursement,” said another eBay Motors customer, R.C. “It happened almost instantly. We used the gift card to replace the broken fuel pump and made sure the new one is protected. It’s such a relief knowing we have a warranty we can trust.”
Assurant offers Service Contract Programs that cover used auto parts. If you’re shopping for a part to repair your vehicle, restore a classic automobile, or deck out your car with accessories, take a look at the protection plan offered with your purchase. Gearheads can get peace of mind with Assurant protection plans.
