There is no single price for an extended car warranty or vehicle service contract. The total cost of a RoadStar plan can change based on the vehicle’s year, make, model, mileage, condition, repair profile, selected coverage tier, term, deductible, payment structure, and the benefits and limits in the applicable contract. Your vehicle details and the current written offer determine the actual price.

​

RoadStar coverage is organized into seven tiers: High Mileage, PT, PT Plus, Standard, Premium, First Class, and Executive. The supplied comparison describes High Mileage as powertrain-focused coverage for high-mileage units. PT adds core systems; PT Plus adds advanced electrical, steering, and standard brake categories; and the higher tiers expand the listed system categories and options. A broader tier can include more categories, but “more coverage” is not the same as a promise that every repair will qualify. The written RoadStar contract controls.

​

What affects the cost conversation

​

- Vehicle fit: year, make, model, mileage, condition, usage, modifications, and coverage history.

- Coverage tier: the RoadStar tier and any optional surcharge or add-on selected for the vehicle.

- Contract structure: term, mileage, deductible, payment schedule, fees, and cancellation or transfer rules.

- Benefits and limits: roadside, rental, trip interruption, diagnostics, fluids, labor, and other contract limits.

- Repair risk: the systems most relevant to the vehicle’s age, mileage, service history, and expected ownership period.

​

Compare the total cost, not only the monthly payment. A monthly plan may be easier to budget, but the total of payments, fees, contract term, deductible, and benefit limits is what matters when comparing options. A shorter term with a higher deductible may look different from a longer term with a lower deductible even when the monthly payment appears similar.

​

Before discussing price, ask:

​

- What vehicle details were used to determine eligibility and cost?

- Which RoadStar tier is being discussed, and which categories are included or optional?

- What exclusions, maintenance requirements, pre-existing-condition rules, and waiting or trial terms apply?

- What deductible is due when a covered repair is authorized?

- Are diagnostic, labor-rate, towing, rental, or trip-interruption limits included?

- Can the contract be cancelled or transferred, and how is any refund calculated?

- Who authorizes claims, and how is the repair facility paid?

​

The RoadStar comparison shows 24-hour roadside assistance, rental vehicle reimbursement, trip interruption, diagnostics and fluid coverage, consequential-damage provisions, and a 30-day/1,000-mile trial period, subject to the applicable contract. The comparison also lists $100 per roadside event, rental at $35 per day for up to five days ($175 maximum per occurrence), and trip interruption at $80 per day for up to three days ($240 per occurrence). These are supplied-program summary figures, not a PAP quote or a substitute for the contract.

Priority Auto Protection’s review approach

​

PAP reviews the vehicle facts and current RoadStar program information together. The goal is to make the cost conversation specific: tier, covered categories, term, deductible, exclusions, payment structure, and likely ownership period should be considered as one decision. A plan review helps identify eligibility and value questions before a decision is made. It is not a guarantee of eligibility, price, or claim approval.
