For Commercial Finance Professionals and Dealers

Built for Commercial Trucks. Designed for Commercial Finance.

Legacy was built first and foremost to support Canada's commercial finance professionals and their customers, giving lenders, equipment finance professionals, truck dealers, and leasing companies a fully insured aftermarket warranty solution for eligible Class 5 to 8 trucks.

Asset Protection

Supporting the value of financed assets

Commercial trucks are specialized, high-value assets operating in demanding environments.

When an unexpected mechanical failure occurs, the borrower may face a large repair cost at the same time the vehicle is no longer generating revenue. That combination can affect payment performance, asset condition, and the long-term success of the financing relationship.

A structured warranty solution can help reduce exposure to eligible covered repair expenses and support better asset protection.

A powerful risk-mitigation tool for used-truck lending

Legacy is one of the most valuable risk-mitigation tools available to commercial lenders financing used trucks. While it does not replace sound credit, collateral, inspection or underwriting practices, it adds an important layer of protection around the financed asset and the borrower's ability to remain operational.

  • Protect eligible financed assets against major covered mechanical failures
  • Reduce the risk that a large, unexpected repair bill disrupts loan payments
  • Help owner-operators and fleets maintain operations, revenue and cash flow
  • Build greater lender confidence in used-truck transactions
Truck Dealers

What the program adds to a used truck sale

A credible warranty program supports the used truck sales process by giving qualified buyers access to protection beyond the vehicle itself.

Buyer Confidence

Qualified buyers gain access to defined protection beyond the vehicle sale.

Inventory Value

Differentiate eligible used units and support stronger transaction value.

Finance Support

Give lenders a clearer picture during finance approval conversations.

Post-Sale Clarity

Reduce uncertainty around major mechanical failures after delivery.

Eligibility, coverage, and pricing are determined by the applicable program requirements and the warranty contract for each vehicle.

Built right from the beginning

Legacy was developed over nearly two years with Acera Insurance and specialized industry partners to ensure the program was structured properly from day one. It is a fully insured program with full risk transfer, not an informal reserve fund or dealer-backed promise. Compliance, accountability and long-term program stability were built into its foundation, including:

  • Fully insured risk structure and professional underwriting
  • Full transfer of covered warranty risk
  • Commercial-grade contracts and documentation
  • Alignment with applicable provincial regulatory requirements
  • Clearly defined claims, authorization and payment procedures

Warranty as part of the transaction

Coverage may be included in an eligible purchase or financing transaction. All parties should clearly disclose:

  • Warranty cost shown to the customer
  • Coverage details and contract terms
  • Financing implications where applicable
  • Cancellation and transfer conditions

Inclusion of warranty coverage remains subject to applicable lending, insurance, program, and regulatory requirements.
