MaxCare is an extended auto warranty that is available for all cars purchased from CarMax. This warranty must be purchased at the same time as the car purchase. MaxCare can save you money on repairs and give you peace of mind, knowing your car is covered.
When someone buys a car from CarMax, they get a free limited plan. You can get service for up to 90 days or 4,000 miles with this plan. They can also buy an additional protection called MaxCare. There are now over 200 CarMax stores across the United States. The first one opened in 1993 in Richmond, Virginia. On top of that, the Better Business Bureau (BBB) page gives them an A!
Portfolio Protection goes beyond offering extended warranties solely for automobiles and extends its coverage to include RVs, motorcycles, and power sport vehicles. Additionally, they provide asset protection, maintenance programs, and theft deterrent products. Portfolio Protection holds an A+ rating as accredited by the Better Business Bureau!
