How does Geek Squad Protection work with your manufacturer warranty?

During the original manufacturer's warranty period, most repairs will be handled by the manufacturer. Keep in mind that Geek Squad Protection often covers important repairs that your manufacturer warranty doesn't, like failure due to a power surge.

If something goes wrong after the original manufacturer warranty ends, Geek Squad Protection has your back and will take care of any covered repairs.
