Retail Rate vs. Warranty Rate

For all your Auto Repairs
Here at DriveSmart we have our customers best interest in mind. Everyday millions of Americans overpay their mechanics for repairs out of pocket. With a DriveSmart Warranty we will pay the mechanic directly on your behalf. Take a look at the difference you would pay your mechanic compared to us.

The VSC contract is with you and the vehicles owner and the VSC provider or administrator that will state what is covered in each plan.
