Default Re: Extended Warranty ???

I got mine from Warranty Direct. $100 deductible - 7yr - 70,000 miles. It is designed to cover everything except the powertrain which is covered by Chrysler. The cost was $700. Keep in mine most dealers use a third party and not Chrysler. I checked with my service department and they had dealt with, and had no problems, with the company. I also checked with the Better Business Bureau. They can be found at www.warrantydirect.com. I plan on keeping the car for 7 years and my mileage is low as it is garaged in the winter (110 inches of snow so far this year!). All warranty companies make there big bucks when the insured trades in the vehicle well before their warranty (and often the new car warranty) expires. If you plan on keeping the car for the full term of the warranty and need protection from a major expenditure the extended warranty may be a good choice for you. Remember the dealer is usually a middle-man in the transaction. Shop around. You can probably do better on you own. Just make sure you check out the company you choose. There are a number of reputable companies. Unfortunately the opposite is true also. Good luck with your decision.
