need to extend my GM warranty
My warranty is about up on my 02 , looking to extend through GM as I would
think it will be less of a problem when there is a problem. What kind of deals are out there through GM dealers, cost to extend yours at the time of purchase will be of no help. I have 29,000 and due in Feb. Input from those who have purchased and used GM's extended please. So if you have eaten it don't tell me what it tastes like Thanks |

Extended warranty insurance is betting against oneself: 'Here's $2000.00 you can have - I sure hope my car breaks down so much that I might get some of my $2000.00 back some day in the way of inflated repair rates to remedy trivial complaints.' These are almost pure profit to carmakers, combine that w/ GM including one of the shortest factory warranties around...

I did make good use of my extended warranty on my 99 Camaro SS 6-speed. I
had ongoing electrical problems & no-one could (would) fix it. I'd had my SS in the shop 7 times, before the regular warranty ran out & another 5 times after that - until I finally got so ****ed off that I sold the SS, swore I would NEVER, EVER AGAIN, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES BUY ANY OTHER NEW OR USED CHEVROLET, and I bought a 2002 Jeep Liberty - (which I sold 6 months later to buy a 6-speed 99 C5 - I love performance cars, but SUV's are just SO useful).

Here's the (old) contact info for a dealer who sells GM Major Guard at $50
over cost. He seems to be regarded as the cheapest place to buy this: in article 1BHcd.47563$hj.5551@fed1read07, Rad at wrote on 10/17/04 9:25 PM: > My warranty is about up on my 02 , looking to extend through GM as I would > think it will be less of a problem when there is a problem.

So if you have >>eaten it don't tell me what it tastes like Thanks Didn't/won't buy an extended warranty, 43,000 on my '98 and had nothing to complain about or fix. If I were to consider one I'd go to and price it before I ask anyone else. -- Dad 05 C6 Silver/Red 6spd Z51 72 Shark Black/Black/4spd |
