Automobile Extended Warranty

Extend the life of your vehicle for up to six years or 100,000 miles

How many times have you heard stories about cars breaking down right after the warranty expires? Our guess is, too many, which is why you need Mercury’s Mechanical Breakdown Protection (MBP), often known as an extended warranty.

Sometimes referred to as an extended warranty, Mechanical Breakdown Protection plans cover the cost to repair your vehicle when it breaks down. Mercury offers a variety of plans from which to choose, including our Platinum Plan, which provides bumper-to-bumper protection and covers virtually all of your vehicle’s mechanical and electrical components.  Get a quote today !

These plans are available for both new and pre-owned vehicles and they often cost hundreds less than other “extended warranties.” But the best part is that when you choose a Mercury Mechanical Breakdown plan you’ll also receive a variety of additional benefits at no extra charge:

24-hour Roadside Assistance
Rental Vehicle Assistance
Tire Protection
Trip Interruption Coverage
Nationwide Protection
Repairs can be done at any licensed U.S. repair facility – you choose where to take your vehicle
There is no limit to the number of claims you can make
Coverage is transferable

So if you just purchased a new vehicle, or if your warranty is about to expire, you need to speak with one of our agents. It will only take a couple of minutes and it could save you thousands of dollars down the road.

Excludes normal wear and tear items, such as brakes, shocks, etc.

To update you on what is happening at the Lukeville/Sonoyta border crossing for our insureds traveling to Rocky Point: Depending on the officer, Mexican authorities (Guardia Nacional) are enforcing the FMM and passport requirements, but not consistently. Some travelers have reported crossing as usual without passports, and officers simply waived them through. Others have reported obtaining FMMs at the border, with all travelers carrying passports. If travelers are transparent and declare any alcohol they’re bringing into Mexico, they are being charged a 114% tax. However, some people reported having alcohol but were waived through by officers and did not pay the tax. It appears enforcement depends on the officer, and tourists are currently taking their chances. It comes down to each traveler’s level of confidence and risk tolerance, as enforcement is not yet consistent. Our company’s recommendation is to follow the law: Process the FMM online Print the form Stop at the INM (Immigration) office at the border to get it stamped Reminder: The FMM tourist permit is only for foreign citizens, not for individuals with dual citizenship. Here is the link to obtain the FMM online (in case travelers ask where to process it before crossing the border): https://www.inm.gob.mx/fmme/publico/en/solicitud.html The INM Immigration Office is located in the Aduana building. For your reference, the Gastrak/Sanborn’s location in Lukeville and the Aduana building (just to the left after crossing the border) are highlighted. Additional reminders for this border crossing: All vehicles must have a current, original, valid registration OR the original title/notarized copy. Digital copies or images are not accepted. If the vehicle is not owned by the driver (e.g., a company vehicle, borrowed from family or friends), a notarized letter of permission from the owner is required to take the vehicle into Mexico. Border Hours: U.S. and Mexican authorities have agreed that the Lukeville–Sonoyta border crossing to Rocky Point (Puerto Peñasco) is open daily from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m., with extended hours on Fridays (6 a.m. to 10 p.m.) from March 7 to October 10, 2025.
