I have an extended warranty on my Saab 9-5. Its from Universal Warranty Co. Terms are 48 months/48K miles with a $200 deductible. It cost US$2500. So far I've saved around $800 and I'm about 5/8 through the life of the warranty.
Do you guys think its worth the cost based on your experience?
I had to find a new independent shop when I got the warranty because the previous shop refused to deal with the warranty co. I may have to find another shop again as my current shop is getting increasingly frustrated having to deal with the warranty co. I kind of feel bad for the shop owner. He says he has to sit on hold forever when he calls to get the OK from the warranty co. and makes it hard to help other customers.
