You have enough on your mind without worrying about any unexpected surprises. That’s why we created the Chevy Protection Plans – to provide additional coverage on top of your manufacturer’s warranty. We’ll get your Chevy back on the road with any parts or labor covered and taken care of, leaving you with less to worry about. Don’t get fooled by third-party calls and commercials promising coverage that doesn’t deliver. With Chevy Protection, you can drive confidently knowing that your vehicle is backed by the people who know it best. 

With labor rates on the rise, repairing a vehicle is getting more and more expensive every year. With a Chevy Protection Plan, you have both part and price protection. Choose the only coverage that shares the same name as the vehicle you drive and move forward with confidence on the roads ahead – whether your vehicle is currently under warranty or not. With available interest-free financing when you choose Maritime Chevy, it’s easy for us to find a plan that meets your needs and budget.

The terms “vehicle service contract,” “warranty,” and “protection plan” are sometimes incorrectly used interchangeably in the industry, which can create some confusion around what each one means. Limited warranties and service contracts are different, and it’s important to understand the differences when shopping for the right plan. A vehicle service contract covers failure of specific parts. It can be added at the time of vehicle purchase at an additional cost, or any time up to 8 years or 100,000 miles. It also may be transferred if the vehicle is sold, or you may cancel it at any time.

EV Protection Plan

Your Chevy EV is built to be bold. It’s an exceptional electric vehicle that demands exceptional coverage such as the Chevy EV Protection Plan – a more convenient way for you to purchase coverage that goes above and beyond your manufacturer’s warranty with an available $0 deductible. Protecting yourself from potentially expensive covered repair costs doesn’t have to be complicated.

  • The only EV Protection Plan endorsed by Chevrolet and backed by General Motors
  • Available on new, pre-owned, or leased Chevrolet electric vehicles
  • Available $250 deductible with 0% interest on select models
  • Platinum Protection provides coverage for up to 96 months or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first, on up to 1,500 parts
  • GM Genuine Parts and ACDelco replacement parts
  • 24-hour Roadside Assistance, including towing reimbursement
  • Coverage includes diagnostics and fluid replacement in conjunction with a covered repair
  • For covered services, return to your Chevrolet Dealer who knows your EV best

Gap Coverage

If you have an accident and your vehicle is considered a total loss, most standard insurance policies will pay only the current market value of your vehicle, not for what is owed or the deductible. This can leave you responsible for the difference. GAP Coverage can help cover this difference. 

Coverage Selections

Looking to add a little more protection right where you need it most? Chevy has protection plans for just the occasion. Whether you need Tire & Wheel Protection, Pre-Paid Maintenance, Advanced Lease protection, or more, Maritime Chevy has you covered.

Time is Running Out: Federal EV Tax Incentives Expire September 30th

If you’ve been considering making the switch to an electric vehicle, now is the time to act. Recent changes in federal legislation mean that all federal tax credits for Electric Vehicles (EVs), including New EV, Used EV, and Commercial/Leased EV Clean Vehicle credits,  will officially sunset on September 30, 2025. At Maritime Chevy, our current lease customers are still eligible for a $7,500 federal tax credit, which is applied as a discount at the time of lease regardless of personal income or vehicle price. This incentive can lower your monthly payment by approximately $209 on a typical 36-month lease — a significant savings that will no longer be available after September 30. more For those purchasing rather than leasing, qualified buyers may also enjoy a $7,500 credit at the time of sale, subject to income and vehicle eligibility requirements. (Please see dealer for details; not all customers will qualify.) We anticipate high demand leading up to the deadline, and inventory, especially in specific colors and trim levels, may become limited as we approach the expiration date. Why Act Now? $7,500 Lease Credit: available now, regardless of income or vehicle price $7,500 Purchase Credit: available to qualifying buyers Wide selection available today: before inventory tightens Drive electric: lower operational costs, zero tailpipe emissions, and an elevated ownership experience While Maritime Chevrolet will proudly continue to offer exceptional EVs like the Equinox EV and Blazer EV well beyond October 1, these federal tax benefits will not return under current law. If you’ve been waiting for the right time to drive electric, this is it. Contact us today to learn more, schedule a test drive, or secure your EV before incentives expire.

Employee Spotlight: Meet Kristoff Victor

Employee Spotlight: Meet Kristoff Victor

At Maritime Chevrolet, our team is made up of people who care about our customers and our community. This month, we are shining the spotlight on Kristoff Victor, one of our Sales Consultants whose energy, work ethic, and remarkable journey make him one of the most unique members of our team. Kristoff's path to the automotive industry is anything but conventional. Born in Haiti, he lived there until the age of 12 before relocating to New York, where he would spend the next several decades building a life full of varied and meaningful experiences. From running a cigar lounge to managing grocery stores, working his way up from car detailer to Detail Manager and Trainer, and eventually managing valet operations across three locations, Kristoff has always found a way to lead, grow, and connect with the people around him. In 2025, he made Connecticut home, and not long after, he found his way to Maritime Chevrolet. In just seven months with our team, he has already made a lasting impression. What Drives Him Ask Kristoff what he loves most about the automotive industry and his answer comes without hesitation: the people. "I love getting to know new people and building new relationships," he says. "I love the mystery of never knowing who you're going to meet next." That genuine curiosity about people is rooted in something deeper. Kristoff was raised by a single mother whose selflessness shaped the way he sees the world. "She put her needs before mine, not out of selfishness, but out of love and sacrifice," he reflects. "In doing so, she taught me that kindness is a choice we can make every day." That philosophy guides the way Kristoff approaches every customer interaction, every single day. Proud Moments at Maritime In his short time with the dealership, Kristoff has already collected some memorable milestones. A standout moment was helping a client purchase a Corvette they had worked 29 years to afford, a sale that meant far more than a transaction. He has also earned recognition as a top New Car Sales Consultant just months into the role, and of course, there was the beloved dealership tradition of getting his tie cut on his very first sale. He is also trilingual, something that allows him to connect with an even broader range of customers in a meaningful way. Outside the Showroom When Kristoff is not at Maritime Chevrolet, you can find him at home with his wife and their cats, making trips to New York to spend time with his mother, or working on his personal vehicles in Bridgeport. He is a car enthusiast through and through, and his dream ride? A C6 Corvette in red. Kristoff is not just building a career at Maritime Chevrolet. He is building a future. "I plan to be in the business for the rest of my life," he says. "I have my goals set already." We are grateful to have Kristoff on our team and cannot wait to see everything he accomplishes in the years ahead. If you have not had the chance to work with him yet, stop by Maritime Chevrolet and introduce yourself. We have a feeling you will be glad you did.
