What’s Included in Your 2019 Honda Civic Warranty?

You may wonder what repairs or parts are covered under your warranty. For example, does the warranty cover the powertrain, tires, batteries, or paint? Do you have a New Vehicle Limited Warranty, and is it still valid? We’re here to help you figure out what your Civic warranty covers.

2019 Honda Civic Factory Warranty Coverage:

Factory Warranty

2019 Honda Civic Basic Warranty

The 2019 Honda Civic’s basic warranty, called the New Vehicle Limited Warranty, lasts for three years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first. This warranty also covers wiper blades for the first six months, wheel balancing, and wheel alignment for the first 12 months or 12,000 miles.

The best way to see if your New Vehicle Limited Warranty is still valid is to call the dealership where you bought it. You’ll need the vehicle identification number (VIN) and the mileage, and then simply contact the dealership and they can help you with your warranty information.

Paint Warranty

The 2019 Honda Civic does not have a separate paint warranty. However, if paint peels or chips due to defects or poor workmanship, speak to your dealership about repairs.

You may be covered for additional miles depending on your specific state. The California Emissions Warranty covers your Civic for three years or 50,000 miles.
