CNA National Introduces “Z Series” VSC Program
The Z Series vehicle service contract program features expanded coverage definitions and terms based on input from CNA National's agents and dealers.
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — CNA National has introduced the Z Series vehicle service contract program that features enhanced customer benefits, coverage, eligibility and more terms.
The new program features first-day rental car benefits, options for “sign and drive” roadside assistance through Road America, expanded definition of “commercial use” coverage, and coverage for new and used vehicles with up to 150,000 miles on the odometer. The program also offers seal and gasket coverage on all plans without a surcharge and “exclusionary” coverage that automatically includes items previously listed under the Specialty Option Package at no additional charge.
“We are very pleased to bring our newest series to our dealer clients,” said Alan Miller, senior vice president of sales. “The improvements we made to coverages and terms were based on valuable input we received from our agents, dealers and a number of focus groups.”
The Z Series also includes Certified+Plus CareSM. It provides expanded coverage for used vehicles that have been certified by the selling dealer under the manufacturer’s guidelines and offer an extended factory limited powertrain warranty.
“In addition, we have taken the idea of a wrap contract to a new level. Customers who purchase our innovative Factory Wrap+Plus CareSM coverage never have to worry about the term of the wrap exceeding the term of their powertrain warranty,” Miller added.
