Subject: Re: Extended warranty on new 9-5?


I just bought a new 9-5 - The dealer said that Saab, itself, doesn't offer extended warranties. Is yours a Saab warranty or dealer aftermarket. $2200 seems like a lot. I checked into extended warranties at cars.com. I think they use Guardian and the warranty was just $1200. You might want to check this out.
