How long is Volkswagen's Warranty?
America's Best SUV Bumper-to-Bumper Transferable Warranty*
6 years/ 72,000 miles
Now on the 2018 Volkswagen Atlas and Tiguan
The average new-car buyer holds onto his or her vehicle for six years ? yet most bumper-to-bumper warranties don't last longer than 3 years, leaving owners potentially exposed to repair bills for manufacturer defects, which is why Volkswagen is now providing the best SUV Bumper-to-Bumper Transferrable Warranty in America! Not only is the Volkswagen SUV bumper-to-bumper warranty longer than its competitors, but like the 3-Year / 36,000 Mile warranty on all of our cars - all of its elements can be transferred to subsequent owners up to 6 years or 72,000 miles, whichever occurs first.
