most 50's vehicles had a 30 day / 1000 mile warranty after that you paid to have it fixed
all manufacturers have service campaigns and
recalls.
one can always purchase a maintenance contract to cover what ever you want (cost determined by what you want)
my brother told me the maintenace contract
on the 935 cat 235 yrd haul trucks they used at the mine was about 1k per day which covered everything except tires 24 / 365
and this is of course above and beyond the original purchase price expected life 60,000 hours
