    Mirage warranty expanded in Canada: 10 years on everything, incl. roadside coverage

    Mitsubishi Canada is running a limited time promotion that extends their already leading warranty:

    Mitsubishi Stretches Warranty Coverage in Summer Promotion

    Comprehensive & Roadside Coverage Doubled

    Mississauga, ON, June 29, 2017 – For a limited time starting in July, nearly all Mitsubishi Motors vehicles [except iMiev and EVO] sold in Canada will include substantially expanded warranty coverage. In addition to the company’s existing, industry-best 10-year/160,000 km powertrain warranty, Mitsubishi Motors will also provide 10-year/160,000 comprehensive coverage and 10-year/160,000 km road-side assistance.

    Dubbed “10-10-10”, the campaign reinforces the company’s Built Better, Backed Better reputation: “For the summer of 2017, we’re making the best warranty in the business even better,” said Tony Laframboise, president & CEO, Mitsubishi Motor Sales of Canada.

    10 years on everything is pretty amazing - I wonder if ordinary Mirage buyers will be swayed by this. I guess we'll find out when the sales numbers come in.

    I have never understood the limited warranty period in Canada. The 10 year/100K mile powertrain warranty in the US is a big deal because most manufacturers here don't offer a warranty that substantial.

    Why not offer this warranty extension? Mitsubishi knows these cars never break!

    I asked the service manager at my local Mitsubishi dealership if he had a lot of Mirages in for warranty work. He literally scoffed and said, "No!"

    Canada's warranty has always been the same at the US. Now they've extended (temporarily) the full vehicle portion (not just powertrain) out to 10 y / 160k kms. Roadside coverage too.

    Cobrajet: agreed. It's not much of a gamble if the vehicles don't break.

    For whatever reason, I thought the powertrain warranty is Canada was only 5 years or something. I must be thinking of another country.

    What is a little weird is that the warranty length DOES vary from country to country. Canada/US are the only 10 year 160k km / 100k mi. markets that I know of.
