What Happens if My Vehicle Needs a Major Repair (Engine or Transmission) Shortly After I Get It?

Introduction

Every Solutions Auto Group lease includes a vehicle service contract and a limited powertrain warranty, which are built specifically for moments like this. If your engine or transmission has a problem shortly after you get the vehicle, the first step is always the same: contact your account manager before you do anything else, including before authorizing any repair.

Why You Call First, Every Time

Your Solutions Auto Group lease comes with a 12-month vehicle service contract and a limited powertrain warranty included — not sold as an add-on later. Together they’re designed to protect you against the exact kind of unexpected expense a failed engine or transmission represents. But covered repairs generally have to be authorized in advance and performed by SAG or an approved repair location, so calling your account manager first protects your coverage as much as it protects your vehicle. If you believe the vehicle is unsafe to drive, don’t drive it — get it to a safe location and then call. Safety comes before anything else.

What to Expect From the Process

Once you contact your account manager, expect a diagnosis step, an explanation of what’s covered under your specific service contract and warranty, and next steps for the repair. Some repairs carry a deductible, and not every part or issue is covered — your account manager can walk you through the specifics of your agreement before work begins.
