Genesis Warranty at Genesis of NW San Antonio


Your Guide to Genesis Warranty Coverage from Genesis of NW San Antonio

At Genesis of NW San Antonio in San Antonio, TX, you get more than a luxury vehicle. You get a full suite of warranty and service protections designed to give you long-term peace of mind. The experts at our dealership have created this guide to give our customers a clear overview of all warranty coverage types available for Genesis owners. Coverage includes the New Vehicle Limited Warranty, powertrain warranty, anti-perforation warranty, roadside assistance, complimentary maintenance, and extended warranty options. You’ll also learn how our service center supports genuine Genesis parts, maintenance scheduling, and seamless service through concierge-style perks like Genesis Service Valet.

New Vehicle Limited Warranty / Basic Coverage

Every new vehicle from Genesis comes with a 5-year / 60,000-mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Under this coverage, almost any defect in material or factory workmanship is eligible for repair or replacement, covering both parts and labor when handled at an authorized Genesis dealer.

This includes key components such as:

  • Electronics (infotainment, navigation, sensors)
  • Climate Control Systems
  • Steering and Suspension Parts (if failure is due to a factory defect, not wear)
  • Interior/Exterior Factory-Installed Components

The warranty excludes items subject to normal wear, such as brake pads, tires, wiper blades, and lightbulbs, and excludes damage caused by accidents, misuse, or neglect.

Powertrain Warranty

Perhaps the strongest feature in the Genesis warranty lineup: a 10-year / 100,000-mile Powertrain Warranty on gas-powered vehicles. It covers engine, transmission, transaxle, drive axle, and major drivetrain components.

That means critical parts responsible for propulsion, drivability, and overall reliability are protected far beyond what many competitors offer.

Anti-Perforation and Corrosion Protection

Genesis also includes anti-perforation warranty coverage that covers body sheet-metal corrosion that causes holes through internal rust or corrosion due to factory defects. For newer models (2025 and onward), that coverage lasts seven years with unlimited mileage.

This helps ensure that your vehicle’s structural integrity remains protected long-term, especially against factory-related corrosion issues rather than external damage or misuse.

Emissions and Federal Compliance Warranty

Emission-related components are also covered under the basic warranty terms (or longer, depending on the part), helping ensure your vehicle meets federally mandated emissions controls without unexpected repair costs due to factory defects.

Replacement Parts and Accessories Warranty

If you ever purchase genuine Genesis accessories or genuine Genesis parts installed at an authorized dealer, those come with a limited warranty for a certain period (depending on the part), covering defects in material or workmanship under normal use.

Ownership Perks: Maintenance, Service Valet, and Roadside Assistance

The warranty coverage is just one side of ownership. Genesis adds several owner benefits to make ownership easier and more convenient.

  • Complimentary Scheduled Maintenance for the first 3 years or 36,000 miles covers routine maintenance such as oil changes, inspections, and other recommended services.
  • Genesis Service Valet: For those first 3 years or 36,000 miles, when your Genesis needs service or routine maintenance, you can arrange pickup of your vehicle. A loaner Genesis will be provided while your car is at the shop. Once the service is done, your car is returned.
  • 24/7 Genesis Roadside Assistance for the first five years includes towing, jump-starts, flat tire assistance, lock-out help, and fuel delivery. This all provides convenience and safety if anything unexpected happens on the road.

These perks reinforce that ownership is meant to be stress-free. Routine maintenance and unforeseen issues are handled with ease.

Thinking Long-Term? Extended Warranty Options

If you want maximum protection beyond factory warranty, Genesis offers optional extended coverage through the Genesis Protection Plan Vehicle Service Contract (VSC). This extended warranty can cover a broad range of mechanical and electrical components, often up to many years or higher mileage.

Typical extended coverage may include:

  • Engine, Transmission, Drivetrain Components
  • Climate Control, Suspension, Steering, Brakes
  • Electrical Systems, Sensors, Infotainment Systems
  • Rental Car Reimbursement (while your car is being repaired)
  • Trip Interruption and Towing Support
  • Up to 1,500+ Covered Components, Depending on the Plan

This can be particularly wise if you plan to keep your Genesis for many years or drive well beyond the standard warranty terms.

What Happens with a Pre-Owned or Certified Pre-Owned Genesis

If you're in the market to search for vehicles and find a pre-owned Genesis at our San Antonio Genesis retailer, you may still benefit from warranty protection, especially if the vehicle qualifies under the Genesis Certified Pre-Owned Program.

Certified pre-owned Genesis vehicles often come with extended bumper-to-bumper and powertrain coverage beyond the original owner’s warranty, and continue to include benefits like roadside assistance, rental car reimbursement, and access to genuine Genesis parts.

Even for non-certified used models, any remaining portion of the original New Vehicle Limited Warranty or anti-perforation coverage may still apply, provided the vehicle has been properly maintained. Documented maintenance history helps ensure warranty eligibility.

How Service, Maintenance, and Warranty Work Together

Warranty coverage only applies to defects in material or workmanship. To ensure that coverage remains valid:

  • Follow the recommended maintenance schedule, especially during the complimentary maintenance period.
  • Use genuine Genesis parts when replacements are needed. Repairs done with aftermarket parts or by non-authorized service centers could void warranty coverage.
  • Keep detailed service records, especially if you plan to sell the vehicle with remaining warranty benefits.

When it’s time for service or repair, our authorized Genesis dealer in San Antonio is equipped to handle everything from routine upkeep to major warranty repairs, all using genuine Genesis parts, so your vehicle stays as the manufacturer intended.

Why Genesis Warranty and Service Stand Out

  • Powertrain coverage is longer than most luxury competitors at 10 years / 100,000 miles.
  • Comprehensive bumper-to-bumper coverage for 5 years / 60,000 miles on virtually all factory-installed components.
  • Corrosion/anti-perforation warranty helps protect vehicle longevity with 7 years / unlimited-mile body protection on newer models.
  • Ownership benefits like complimentary scheduled maintenance, roadside assistance, and Service Valet make ownership convenient.
  • Flexibility beyond the factory warranty through the Protection Plan VSC, which is ideal for long-term owners looking to protect their investment.

Together, this comprehensive warranty and service structure help keep your maintenance costs predictable and ensure your Genesis performs at its best for years to come.
