This may not do you much good.
my 2 cents worth on extended warranties.
#1 go to the best independent you can find
#2 shop for a good warranty deal.......lets say it cost $2500.
#3 Open a savings account at your favorite bank and deposit the $2500. Or the monthly payment amount each month.
#4 Every time you have a repair, pay the indy with money out of the account.
If you have money left great!!! YOU KEEP IT.
If you have money left with the warranty company.....THEY KEEP IT.
I have heard to many horror stories with these warranties........
a. good independents don't honor them.
b. hassles on deductibles and exclusions.
I would not buy one for these reasons.....they are insurance policies. The warranty company wants to spend as little money as they can.
