Protection Plans

FCCC Customer Protection Plans give you the option to extend your original factory chassis warranty above and beyond the basic warranty of your vehicle.2 The Plan allows you to pick and choose the best package or packages that suit your needs. And the best part of the Customer Protection Plan is that it’s the same factory warranty, backed by FCCC, with no preauthorization or deductible required.
