AA Monthly Warranty
What is a Monthly Warranty?
Whether you’ve held on to your car for a few years or have recently bought a second-hand model, we know that that older vehicles generally come with higher risks of something going wrong. That’s why you need a motor vehicle warranty that takes into account these risks, and provides adequate financial protection against mechanical, electrical or electronic failure.
Our AA Monthly car warranty has been specially designed to cater for cars with more years under their belts, protecting your finances and limiting your stress if something happens.
Choose the vehicle warranty cover that suits your needs and your pocket, knowing that if you need to replace parts to get on the road again, these costs and any associated labour will be covered.

AA Monthly Warranty FAQs
What is a vehicle warranty?
Warranty, or mechanical breakdown insurance, provides cover for the cost of labour and parts/components following the actual failure or breakage of mechanical/electrical components, as specified in your policy document under Scope of Cover.
What's covered by a vehicle warranty?
Most comprehensive warranties will include major components, such as:
- Engine
- Transmission system
- Fuel and ignition systems
- Cooling system
- Electronic systems
- Electrical components
- Differential
- Steering
- Suspension
Non-frictional clutch and brake system parts
If a covered part or component breaks or fails as a result of deteriorisation, a warranty will cover the cost of replacement, as per the covered benefit. It does not cover parts that are replaced at the time of repairs, which have deteriorated but not actually broken. It also does not provide cover for any condition that existed before the effective date of the policy.
If my vehicle is out of the manufacturer’s warranty, can I still get cover?
Your vehicle may be eligible for cover, depending on the mileage, purchase date and other factors. Please call one of our advisors for help on 0860 267 267, any week day between 8am and 5pm.
Over what period must I pay for my cover?
You may choose to pay on a monthly basis, or make a once-off payment for 12 or 24 month cover.
Where should I take my vehicle for repairs?
You may choose to have your vehicle repaired at any AA Quality repairer, or any AA Warranties approved repairer. Contact one of our claims advisors on 0860 267 267 to check if your chosen repairer is approved.
Can I do my own repairs?
All repairs must be performed at an AA Quality repairer, or at an AA Warranties approved repairer, as these repairers are required to provide a guarantee for their repairs, so that we can ensure your consumer rights are protected.
Are maintenance items such as oil changes and brake pads covered by my warranty?
Your policy provides cover for sudden, unforseen breakage or failure of covered components. All servicing and/or general maintenance to your vehicle is not covered.
