What does the Kia 60,000-mile warranty cover?

I am considering buying a new Kia because I hear they have a very good new car warranty. What does it cover?

The Kia factory warranty includes a limited basic warranty that lasts five years or 60,000 miles and a
roadside assistance
plan that lasts five years or 60,000 miles.
The 60,000-mile limited basic warranty is a bumper-to-bumper guarantee that covers problems resulting from poor craftsmanship or poor materials. Here are a few things not included in the coverage:
  • Regular maintenance
  • Normal wear-and-tear
  • External damage
If your driver’s-side door falls off as a result of an accident, it is not covered by a warranty. But, if your driver’s-side door falls off with no apparent external cause, it will probably be covered.
Kia’s roadside assistance plan is a 24/7 program drawing on a network of over 17,000 providers to deliver roadside services such as tire changes, battery boosts, fuel delivery, and more. Kia will even cover meals, accommodations, and car rental costs if you are more than 150 miles away from your home and your repairs take more than 24 hours.
If you want to protect yourself from damage resulting from an accident, you’ll need to get yourself some good
car insurance
