Extended warranty is worthless by hackattack5

I bought a brand new Honda Accord in 2008 and bought what I thought was a 100,000 mile warranty. I just traded my car in for a Fusion and the dealer told me that I should get some kind of refund for the policy because my Accord only has 24,000 miles on it. Well the warranty company told me on the phone today that I bought a wrap around policy that started the day I bought the car. Why would I need a extra warranty for the first 36 months 36,000 miles when it comes with a bumper to bumper warranty with the new car? Well I got ripped off and I will be talking to my Honda dealer about this. Beware of any extended warranty.

It doesn't sound like this was a Honda Care service contract. If you had purchased a Honda Care you would be getting a pro-rated rebate back. I know because I've done it before on a vehicle that I sold before the Honda Care expired.

Hi All,
Planning to buy 2010 Honda Odyssey EXL; going to keep this van, living in Michigan and I want to know is it worth to buy extended warranty?!
 
If so, I want to buy 7 years / 100 K for $1500 at the time of purchase or I need to wait for 3 years / 36 K expiration. Gurus, please help me…
Thanks in Advance…

To get the 7 year / 100K warranty, you need to buy it within the first 6,000 miles of the vehicle's life. That time frame won't be available near the end of the factory warranty.
 
$1,500 may be a little too much. You should get a comparable quote from:

Let us know if you can save any money over the quote your dealer gave you.

Thanks jet10000!
I got good quote like $1055 but I need pay in single payment. Back to my old question; is it worth to get extended warranty…

The extended warranties more than paid for themselves with our Pilot and CR-V.
 
The drive trains never gave trouble, but other STUFF did. I won't have another new car without the Extended warranty. Period!
 
FWIW. Just traded the Pilot for a new Ridgeline. Got "Honda Care" EW 8yr/100K miles with "0" deductible for $1300. It was added to the price of the car and is included in the car payment. Probably paid a couple hundred too much, but wanted it all done at one time. The $50 deductible would have been $200 less.

Honda Care for Odyssey 2006 by mannu

Hello all, I bought an Odeyssey 06, with 54000 miles on it. I did not do much homework prior to the purchase and they made me purchase the Honda Care for 1500 $. I call Honda America and they say they don't have any record of the Honda Care plan purchase, but only the certification (they did that after I approach them after 40 days!!) data submitted by my dealer. Since, I cannot cancel it through Honda America, what will be my best course to get this plan canceled? Will I be asked to change the finance terms by the dealer, if I ask for cancellation? Can I dispute that? Since they have included the money in to the finance, and not processed the Honda Care warranty, can I argue thats illegal and tell them that I will approach a lawyer/BBB/attorney general? will that work...looking forward to your valuable thoughts and advices....please

That is a bit high. I would recommend calling College Hills Honda. They sell Honda Care Warranties for much less than most dealers. Their web site is www.collegehillshonda.com.

Usually you need to return to the dealer and have them submit the cancellation paperwork. Since you financed the cost, they won't change the finance terms. The refund will be submitted to your lien holder and they'll deduct the amount from your loan, so that you'll pay off the vehicle a few months earlier.

Sounds like you didn't read the contract. Now you know better. The pretty cover page doesn't give you much information. Always read the fine print.
