Is there a warranty plan that covers curb damage on wheels?

Sorry I can't call chevy as I'm at work and don't have the info/vin in front of me but just wanted to ask to put my mind at ease. Curbed the black 20s, no excuses.

I was looking over briefly the booklet of the car and we have the most expensive warranty package I believe, the one where they coat the car and everything, and also a $100 deductible instead of the $200 one. Do you know if this..or anything that chevy offers, covers curb damage on wheels?

Warranties are for defects in materials and workmanship that is the fault of the manufacturer. No warranty coverage for curb damage. Contact your insurance. May be covered with them.

Yes, it's covered under your wallet, no deductible.

If you have a separate " tire and wheel insurance package" that was sold you at time of delivery by the dealer, not GM, you may be covered. But it's all in the details of the policy.

Yes. As Glen said we added a policy onto our extended warranty for about $100 that covered Rims and Road hazards. Has to happen on the road though from what we were told.

If it were only $100 I would have bought it. It was $400 when they tried tried to sell me on it.

My dealer never offered a tire and wheel insurance package when I bought mine. I did buy an extended warranty, but I guess I will have to read the details to see if it is covered.

I'm sorry... that one just got me.

Depending on the wheel there are some repair places but wheels are easily replaced, but at a price.
Dealer warranties won't cover that. Possibly your insurance company but not really worth the claim.
