Aiming at how to optimize auto engine warranty cost, some hot issues such as what kind of factors auto engine warranty cost includes was studied deeply from the standpoint of reverse supply chain in this paper. First, the definition of auto engine warranty supply chain (AEWSC) was explained; then, under two-dimensional renewable free warranty policy, the components of AEWSC cost were analyzed for repairable engines. AEWSC cost covers not only traditional product warranty cost, but also potential cost resulting from re-failed engines; thirdly, an AEWSC Cost model was built based on cost analysis; finally, numeral analysis was developed through using the proposed cost model. The analysis results help engine manufacturer reduce AEWSC cost.

Facing the uncertainty in transaction of two-dimensional extended warranty, a flexible pricing model is presented considering imperfect preventive maintenance combined with the degradation characteristics of item. The measure of two-dimensional preventive maintenance is carried out based on specified age interval or usage interval, the effect of imperfect preventive maintenance is described by age reduction model. The extended warranty cost is modeled from the perspective of manufacturer and customer, the method of gridding search is employed to optimize the maintenance strategy under different cases. Moreover, customized extended warranty price and warranty services are proposed on the basis of consumer usage rates. The results demonstrate that it is helpful to maximize the benefit of vendor by providing customized warranty strategy, the implementation of preventive maintenance during the whole warranty period can effectively reduce warranty cost for both sides.
