What’s included
More than cover for the big stuff
No Excess
There's no excess to pay on authorised repairs covered by your plan.
Day One Cover
There is no minimum waiting period before you can submit a repair request. Cover starts from your Plan Start Date once activation has been completed.

Labour & Diagnostics
Reasonable authorised labour and eligible diagnostic costs can be covered where the warranty terms allow.

EV & Hybrid Protection
Eligible components used in hybrid and electric vehicles can be covered, including specified high-voltage systems.
Mechanical & Electrical Protection
Cover extends beyond just the engine. Eligible mechanical and electrical components across your vehicle can be protected.
Wear & Tear
Eligible wear-and-tear-related failures can be covered, subject to the warranty terms.
No Complicated Tier Shopping
Available plans provide a clear level of cover rather than forcing customers to understand a long list of optional component packages.
- No phone call needed
- No obligation to buy
Your quote starts with just your vehicle registration and current mileage.
Why it matters
One unexpected fault can become an unexpected expense
- An engine problem
- A gearbox or transmission fault
- Turbo failure
- An electrical fault
- A steering or suspension problem
- A cooling-system issue
- An air-conditioning fault
- A failed sensor or ECU
- An issue with an EV or hybrid component
A car warranty gives you a clear process for dealing with eligible failures and can help protect you from the full cost of authorised repairs. You drive your car. We’ll help protect you when an eligible covered component goes wrong.

Per repair, not per year
Unlimited repairs does not mean unlimited repair value. Each repair event is assessed under the warranty terms.
No excess to find
There's nothing to pay towards an authorised repair covered under your plan.
Any VAT-registered garage
Suggest a reputable VAT-registered UK garage, subject to authorisation before work begins.
Connected faults
Connected faults may be treated as one repair event for the purpose of the applicable limit.
Always check your quote and warranty documentation for the exact repair limit applicable to your vehicle and plan.
The bit competitors often hide
What we don't cover.
Pre-existing faults. Problems that existed before the warranty purchase date are excluded.
Routine servicing and maintenance. Regular servicing and preventative maintenance remain the vehicle owner’s responsibility.
Consumables. Tyres, certain brake components, bulbs, filters, oils and fluids and other routine maintenance items may be excluded.
Unauthorised repairs. Repairs, dismantling or additional diagnostics carried out without prior authorisation may not be covered.
Vehicle modifications. Vehicles modified from the manufacturer’s original specification may be excluded.
Certain vehicle uses. Vehicles used for hire or reward, including certain taxi, courier and rental uses, may be excluded.
EV battery degradation. Normal battery degradation is not the same as a covered battery failure and is excluded.
Service requirements. Your vehicle must be properly serviced and maintained in line with the applicable requirements.
This page provides a summary. Your warranty documentation contains the full terms, conditions and exclusions.
The three big reasons
No Excess. Day One. Unlimited Repairs.
Three commitments that decide whether a warranty is worth having — stated plainly, with the limits attached.
01
Nothing extra to pay
If your repair request is approved under your warranty, there is no excess to pay towards an authorised covered repair.
02
Protection starts from Day One
Once your warranty has been activated and your cover has started, you can make a repair request from the first day. There is no minimum waiting period or mileage requirement. Pre-existing faults remain excluded.
03
One problem doesn't use up your warranty
If something else goes wrong later in your plan, you can make another eligible repair request. Repair limits still apply to each authorised repair event.
How a repair request actually works
Call before work starts.
Four steps, and we talk to your garage directly.
01
Tell us about the problem
Start your repair request through your account or contact us with details of the fault. Tell us what happened, when it started and any symptoms you’ve noticed.
02
Provide the information we need
We may ask for mileage, diagnostic information, photos or videos, warning-light information, service history, invoices and vehicle documentation.
03
Get your repair authorised
Before repairs begin, you must receive authorisation from Cover Me Warranty. The repairer may need to identify the cause of the fault and provide an estimate.
04
Get back on the road
Once the repair has been approved, the authorised repairer can complete the work. Where authorised, the repair invoice is settled directly with the repairer.
Don’t authorise repairs, order parts or arrange additional diagnostics before receiving approval. Unauthorised work may not be eligible for reimbursement.
Your garage
You can suggest a garage you trust.
When you need a repair, you can suggest a reputable VAT-registered garage in the UK.
Depending on the fault, we may also recommend an appropriate repairer or specialist.
- Your usual independent, a specialist or a franchised dealer
- For certain faults, a manufacturer specialist may be authorised
- You don't need to diagnose the problem yourself
The garage must meet the requirements of your warranty and you must obtain
authorisation before repair work begins.

What type of protection are you buying?
A discretionary warranty plan — not an insurance policy
Flexiterm Warranty provides a discretionary warranty plan, rather than an insurance policy. Repair requests are assessed individually against the warranty terms and are authorised at Flexiterm Warranty’s discretion.
This means the warranty terms, eligibility requirements, exclusions and repair limits matter. We believe you should understand that before you buy.
