Oct. 19, 2017—CarMD, a provider of automotive diagnostic information, and CARCHEX, a provider of direct-to-consumer vehicle protection plans, announced a strategic partnership to provide CarMD customers with additional means to reduce unforeseen car repair costs.
CarMD Garage enables anyone to input a vehicle's year, make, model—or vehicle identification number (VIN)—and mileage to generate a free CarMD Garage Vehicle Health Report with information that can reduce the cost of vehicle ownership and extend a vehicle's life.
Optional in-report purchases include maintenance details and costs, predicted diagnostics likelihood with parts costs and labor times, and detailed TSBs.
CARCHEX plans are fully transferable. Plans are customizable, allow you to choose the repair location and can be paid with a payment plan.
"This partnership with CARCHEX is a value-add for CarMD customers who tend to be cost conscious when it comes to their cars and trucks," said David Rich, CarMD's technical director. "CARCHEX's Vehicle Protection Plans complement our CarMD Garage Vehicle Health Reports that provide vehicle owners with insight on the likelihood and costs of upcoming maintenance and repairs, as well as warranty, recall and other cost of ownership details."
Through the partnership, CarMD Garage customers will receive $100 off CARCHEX Vehicle Protection Plans.
