#2785 of 3093 Honda Care Warranty for a 2008 Odyssey with over 6,000 miles by wolfman91 Dec 29, 2008 (6:52 pm)
I was planning to purchase an extended warranty for my new 2008 Odyssey, but I was hesitant to purchase one because of how much my local dealer was charging ($2073 for 84mos/120k). I thought I would just take care of it after Christmas. Unfortunately, we went on a trip and drove about 1,000 miles. The van now has about 6,400 miles on it. Does this mean that I can no longer purchase a new Honda Care warranty?   I wish I had discovered this forum sooner. It appears that 72mos/102k is now the best I can do. Some of the dealers like Saccucci and Bernardi will quote prices for an extended warranty for the van, but are these bumper-to-bumper Honda Care warranties? Does anyone have any suggestions?

You were wise to ignore the exorbitant prices of your dealer, but still may purchase from any of your online alternatives. Post back and we'll supply. So you can purchase a new HC extended warranty and get new care pricing. The only complication will come from if you reside in the " we've got big electoral college votes states of FL or CA " In their wisdom, they have decided that such divination should only occurr from state designed AAL. Apologies to the legitimate AAL. If you are not, you can go online and get a real deal. If not then you are screwed, thinking scooby doo untranslatable. But there are remedial alternatives so do not remorse.

Replying to: duke23 (Dec 29, 2008 9:44 pm) It was suggested to me from a great person on this forum to send out quote requests for the warranty. I am one of the unfortunate ones living in California that are not allowed to buy extended warranties online (although they will sell them to you...and its argued if you can or can not buy them). I ended up sending out about 20 request and two dealerships agreed to my amount ($925.00 for the 7yr/80k mile with no deductible). This was within a few dollars of the best online price. I saved nearly $600.00 from the dealers price !!!! Good luck with this. If you need the dealership name in California I used let me know. You might also want to call Honda Corporate about the mileage. I was told the mileage can not exceed 6k   Jim Replies to this message: RoBoRaT (Dec 30, 2008 12:57 pm) jwalls (Jan 01, 2009 11:41 am) RoBoRaT (Jan 02, 2009 7:03 am) duke23 (Dec 30, 2008 9:48 pm) ltx2 (Dec 30, 2008 11:47 pm)

Replying to: jwalls (Dec 29, 2008 10:03 pm) JWalls: Can you tell me which dealer agreed to match best price. I am also living here in SoCal and the dealers around me got way to high price. I am looking at getting 8 year/ 100K miles - do you happen to know how much they're selling it for? Thanks in advance and Happy New Year to all!

Replying to: jwalls (Dec 29, 2008 10:03 pm) Jim : My greatest kudos on working within the system. 10 % for those bastard err kindly California dealerships to follow the national norm. But congratulations on getting them to match the best price. You are my hero. The rest of us in the lower 46 have done our best and you have overcome , In the land of milk and honey ! You got a great deal .My congratulations.

"   Wrong forum sir. You want either prices paid or new lease rates. But since you need 3.9% or less I'd say you don't need a car. Drive that Yugo to the ground.

Replying to: jwalls (Dec 29, 2008 10:03 pm) Would also love to find out the dealer you bought the Honda Care Warranty from. We just bought 08 EX-L w RES in SoCal.

Replying to: RoBoRaT (Dec 30, 2008 12:57 pm) I got the extended warranty through Honda World in Downey. I worked with Jimmy Lee who I believe is the finance manager. I looked to see what they would sell them for back east and like I stated before, got some GREAT advice from "Dantz" on here. Good luck and let me know how it goes for you.   Jim Replies to this message: RoBoRaT (Jan 02, 2009 7:03 am)
