A dealership vehicle service contract typically covers specified mechanical and electrical breakdowns after the manufacturer's warranty expires, based on the contract terms selected. Coverage often includes major components such as engine, transmission, drivetrain, and other listed systems. In DealerRE's model, the focus is on helping dealerships set up and reinsure these contracts through their own company so they can retain underwriting profits while offering customers meaningful protection.
