It also indicates the type of warranties that are available. An express warranty is a written agreement that states that the dealer or manufacturer intends to repair the car under certain circumstance. Express warranties for used cars are usually limited to certain parts of the car and usually require the purchaser to pick up the tab for a certain percentage of the repair. Look for an express warranty where the dealer agrees to pay a majority of the costs of parts and labor for a significant period of time. Remember that the terms of such a warranty, like the price of the vehicle, is generally negotiable between you and the dealer and get it all in writing.
Implied warranties are unspoken and unwritten.
For example, a toaster will toast.
