How to Make Your Car Last Forever: Avoid Expensive Repairs, Improve Fuel Economy, Understand Your Warranty, Save Money

Wearable items such as the drive belts and brake friction material shown here are not covered parts. That’s
because they are wearable in nature and are expected to go bad with age and use. Such parts are considered
regular maintenance and thus the responsibility of the owner. Other items that fall under the wearable
category are cooling system hoses, tires, filters, sparkplugs, and anything else considered regular maintenance
as outlined in your maintenance schedule or new car warranty.
