Transmission Failure
Issue 9 • Engine & Transmission Tips Tell-Tale Signs, It’s Time For A Transmission Rebuild or Replacement NOTE: For editorial purposes, the information below applies
Welcome to Part 3 of Fraser Engine Co’s three-part series on knowing when it’s time to replace your engine or you’re your whole car. We want this in-depth feature to help you make an informed decision before you choose to buy a remanufactured engine from us.
In Part 1 we covered the emotional and financial variables in deciding to replace just your engine or the entire vehicle.
And in Part 2 we addressed tell-tale signs that may influence this kind of decision.
This week we will visit Fraser’s Remanufactured Engine Selection Tools: what Fraser’s Warranties cover; and why installation by a licensed automotive professional is urgently recommended.
Let’s say you’ve decided it’s time to replace your engine, either because it failed, or you just want an engine that has been meticulously rebuilt to exacting standards. The first thing you need to do is find the right engine, (or transmission… Fraser rebuilds transmissions also!)
NOTE: Fraser remanufacturers approximately 100 engines from Chevy, Chrysler, Ford, GM, Hyundai, Kia, Subaru, Toyota, and other manufacturers. If you don’t see your exact engine in the drop-down list, please fill out the Quick Quote form on the left-hand side of the home page, or, for immediate help, call: 800-731-3177 directly.
Fraser offers three levels of warranty coverage: the Fraser Standard Warranty, the Fraser No-Fault Protection Plan, and the Fraser No-Fault Platinum 7-Year Warranty.
NOTE: The coverage offered within these warranties varies according to the actual engine or transmission purchased, the type of vehicle in which it is installed, and who installs it.
Expanded-coverage warranty upgrades are available on virtually all of our engines and transmissions. For example, our typical Standard Warranty generally includes 3-years, unlimited-miles, and parts & labor coverage for your remanufactured engine. But our customers asked for even more coverage, so the Standard Warranty can be upgraded to our No-Fault (no questions asked) Plan for as little as $149.00 more. And there’s even more…
When you speak with your Fraser sales representative, ask for details on the warranty that comes with your engine, (or transmission), and what additional options are available. For a complete listing of warranties available from Fraser Engine Co., visit Fraser’s Warranty Information Page.
NOTE: Most Fraser Gold Standard High Durability Crate Engines automatically come with the 5-year, No-Fault Plan warranty. The Platinum Plan 7-year warranty is also available as an upgrade.
So, remember to be on top of the replacement process, and be sure to include the installing garage’s information on your registration documentation.
We at Fraser Engine Co. know there is a LOT of information in this final installment, and really even more in the three-part series, but we hope you’ve had the time to read through them, and appreciate that this is the best way to make a decision about replacing your vehicle’s engine. We trust you know to always make an informed decision.
