Included on Every Vehicle.Protected Inside and Out.
Every pre-owned vehicle we sell comes with PermaPlate Appearance protection for the paint, wheels and interior.
Backed by PermaPlate
PermaPlate has protected vehicles since 1978. Covered damage is repaired with no out of pocket cost to you, and claims go directly to PermaPlate.
Already Part of Your Price
PermaPlate Appearance protection is listed up front as Appearance Protection ($795) in every vehicle's transparent price, so there are no surprises at signing. Before delivery, your vehicle gets professionally applied Paintguard, Fiberguard and Leatherguard treatments that protect the exterior and interior, so it looks as good in a few years as it does on delivery day.

Questions About Your Coverage?
Your client advisor can walk you through what's included before you buy.
PermaPlate Appearance protection is a product limited warranty, not insurance. Coverage is subject to the terms, limitations and exclusions of the PermaPlate limited warranty, and your agreement lists the specific coverage. See your client advisor for details.
