Warranties 

The pleasure of driving your Volkswagen would not be complete without the peace of knowing your purchase is safe.

​That's why we offer a selection of warranties to suit your needs - depending on the age or mileage of your car. Isn't it nice to know that some things in life are guaranteed?

New car warranty

Designed to be worry-free. We go to great lengths to ensure that you're happy with your purchase.

That's why when you buy a new passenger car from an authorised Volkswagen retailer in the UK we'll provide a comprehensive warranty to cover you against defects and repairs for the first three years. This is made up of:

  •     A 2-year unlimited mileage manufacturers warranty
  •     A further 1 year / 60,000 miles (whichever is soonest) warranty

This means you're covered for a total of 3 years or up to 60,000 miles, whichever comes first. Exclusions apply throughout, so please read our Terms and Conditions.

Exceeding your mileage on your original warranty

Going that extra mile for you. Is your car likely to exceed 60,000 miles in the last year of its original 3-year warranty? 

There's no need to worry about running out of cover. Simply buy a Volkswagen Extended Warranty and you can enjoy warranty cover for a further year. Don't forget to register whilst you are still within a warranty period to ensure continuous cover.1

Peace of mind with electric car warranties

When you buy a car, you want to know that it’s built to go the distance. At Volkswagen, we’re so confident in the quality of our engineering that all of our electric cars come with an eight years or 100,000 miles/160,000km high voltage battery warranty (whichever is soonest) on all material or manufacturing defects. The warranty applies to all pure electric cars (ID.3, ID.4, ID.5 and ID.7).

All-in Warranty

When you purchase All-in from Volkswagen3, you’ll get up to two year’s Warranty provided by Volkswagen UK and administered by Volkswagen Financial Services. This Warranty has been designed to cover the costs of repairing or replacing the covered components that have suffered a sudden electrical or mechanical failure during the period of cover (excludes no-claim period). Further details are available in the terms and conditions.

If your vehicle’s previous Volkswagen UK or Volkswagen Financial Services warranty expired over 30 days ago, then you won’t be able to claim in the first 30 days of your All-in Warranty (a “no-claim period”). Effectively, you’ll have 23 months where you can make a claim on your warranty.

The All-in Warranty does not cover any vehicle already covered under any other guarantee, insurance, warranty and/or gesture of goodwill.
