Enhanced Powertrain

The Honda Accord is generally reliable, but the transmission is a known weak point on certain model years. Enhanced Powertrain covers the engine, transmission, A/C, and electrical systems — giving Accord owners peace of mind on the components most likely to require expensive repairs.

Honda Accord Warranty FAQ

What does the Honda factory warranty cover on a new Accord?

New Honda Accords come with a 3-year/36,000-mile basic warranty and a 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty. Once these expire, all repair costs are your responsibility. An Athena extended warranty extends protection beyond factory coverage.

Are Honda Accord transmissions prone to failure?

Certain Honda Accord model years (particularly 2003-2007 and some 2013-2015 CVT models) have documented transmission issues. A transmission replacement can cost $3,500–$6,000. Our plans cover this component across all eligible model years.

What Accord model years are eligible for Athena coverage?

Most Accord model years with a clean title and under 150,000 miles at enrollment are eligible. This includes 9th generation (2013-2017) and 10th generation (2018-2022) models. Contact us for a specific eligibility check.

Can I use my Honda dealership for covered repairs?

Yes. You can use any licensed repair facility, including your Honda dealership's service center. We pay the shop directly via corporate credit card, so there is no out-of-pocket cost beyond your $100 deductible.

How much does an extended warranty cost for a Honda Accord?

Plans for a Honda Accord typically start at $30–$80 per month depending on your vehicle's age, mileage, and the coverage tier you select. Call us at (833) 251-9786 for a free personalized quote.
