A note about electronics and LCD screen coverage
LCD screens may be covered, depending on the issue. If the screen was punctured or scratched, for example tampering or accidental damage, it’s not covered.
But if your screen isn’t functioning properly, the mechanic will take your dash apart to see if you need a new LCD screen. If you do, it’s covered along with all computers and electronics. So, if other electronics stop working, like your radio, the repair is covered. But if it’s damaged, such as when a radio knob is accidentally snapped off, it isn’t.

Does my vehicle need an inspection?
If your vehicle is outside of its original factory bumper-to-bumper warranty, you will need to submit a pre-purchase inspection report (PPI). Here is a form of what must be inspected. We encourage you to get an inspection completed by an independent third party, and not the seller of the vehicle.
If your vehicle is Certified Pre-Owned, you may submit a certification of inspection or proof of CPO in lieu of PPI.
The PPI documents pre-existing conditions. For example, if the PPI report shows a window isn’t operating, it won’t be covered since it’s a pre-existing condition.
We have partnered with LemonSquad to help our customers obtain a PPI.

How to make a claim
When your vehicle isn’t working properly, go to a certified service center and bring your policy with you so they can call in the claim.
Below is our recommendation on the steps you should take to make a claim:
- First, go to a dealership, or AAA- or ASE- certified service center
- Bring your policy with you to show to the service advisor
- To determine the issue(s), a diagnostic assessment will be made and the info will be given to you and AUL
- If the repair is covered, you’ll only pay the deductible
How to cancel
If you cancel your CarEdge Extended Warranty, you will receive a prorated amount of your money back (based on either time or miles, whichever is greater). If you cancel within 60 days of purchase and no claims were made, you’ll receive a full refund, less a $50 administrative fee.
