A transferable auto warranty designed to protect dealer inventory was recently announced by ABS Auto Auctions.

The company launched its new Buyer Shield Limited Powertrain Warranty in early August, when the company began offering the warranty as standard equipment on most vehicles sold through its auctions.

ABS said Buyer Shield offers 90-day, 500-mile limited powertrain coverage for the dealer while a vehicle is in any dealer’s inventory, then transfers when the vehicle is wholesaled or retailed.

The warranty covers the engine and drive train of a vehicle, and is designed to protect the dealer from unforeseen repairs while the vehicle is in dealer inventory, the company said.

ABS Auto Auctions Celebrates 20 Years of Industry Leading Automotive Remarketing 
March 2013​


This year (2013), ABS Auto Auctions is celebrating our 20th year in business.  ABS has evolved over these 20 years from the humble beginnings of a single bid sale in San Bernardino, CA to the nation's largest "Sealed-Bid" Auto Auction, now with 10 locations in the Southwest United States (Southern and Northern California, Oregon and Nevada).  We also now have our own finance company, ABS Finance, which provides flooring lines to our dealers from $10,000 up to $1,000,000.


Founded in 1993 by our President, Tom Harmon, ABS now offers the largest sealed bid auto auction in the country. Our system consistently delivers the most money for your wholesale inventory in the least time.
