Does a Honda warranty cover scratches?

I sideswiped a car and it left a long and nasty scratch on my Honda. I want it fixed but really don’t want to pay for it. Are scratches covered under my warranty?

We’re sorry to hear about your car! Most
Honda
warranties cover repair for the following:
  • Paint scuffs
  • Scratches up to six inches in diameter
  • Scrapes up to six inches in diameter
Your Honda warranty should also cover repairs to a vehicle’s seats and carpet due to cuts, rips, and tears up to two inches in diameter.
While warranties may not be very exciting to read, it’s a good idea to review yours thoroughly so you know what it covers. You can also call your dealership for clarification or confirmation.
Cosmetic damage fixes can add up if your warranty doesn’t cover them—but luckily, you can save some cash on your
