#2902 of 3104 2008 Certified Used Civic vs. Honda Care coverage by cn2000 May 09, 2009 (3:39 pm)
Hi all- sorry, but I have a very naive question and was hoping for some help. Just bought a Honda certified used '08 civic with VERY low miles and was excited to get the 7 yr/100,000 mile powertrain and 4 yr/48,000 mile "bumper to bumper" (with the 1 yr extension from certification) (essentially getting a new car with a better warranty for lower price!). However, when the finance guy came out at the end, he offered me Honda Care "bumper to bumper" (for way more than the online prices- shocking, I know). I told him the car salesman had used the same term to describe the 4/48K warranty, but Mr. Finance insisted they are completely different. My questions are as follows:   1) Does the Honda Care just potentially extend the exact same 4/48,000 coverage to, say 7/100,000 (if I buy that plan) or 2) Does the Honda Care plan actually cover different things that would not be covered for the first 4/48,000? (This is what the finance guy led me to believe and of course tried to scare me into multiple expensive scenarios that wouldn't be covered without Honda Care. Since he already told me the time of purchase was the ONLY time I could buy Honda Care, I am now viewing everything he said with a large amount of skepticism.)   I've already got the 7/100,000 powertrain through Honda certification, but I'm confused about the "bumper to bumper" (or "limited factory warranty" as the finance guy called it) part. I still have some time to buy a "new" Honda Care, if it's worth it in this case. Thanks in advance for any advice and opinions!

Replying to: cn2000 (May 09, 2009 3:39 pm) I read the coverage that Jet 1000 said to look up and I would carefully focus on the not area, it's pretty close to what I was saying in my previous blog about the warranty in my Equniox at times almost nothing is covered that is of real value and cost out of your pocket.

Replying to: packer3 (May 06, 2009 4:07 pm) Anyone here from california? I am looking to buy an extended warranty, but I am not sure what company or where should I buy it from. Most of the website I saw says Califronnia residenst are not allowed to buy warranties for now. Thanks. Replies to this message: jet10000 (May 20, 2009 7:54 pm) jo_2947 (May 22, 2009 1:12 pm)

Replying to: jo_2947 (May 20, 2009 10:49 am) Most of the website I saw says Califronnia residenst are not allowed to buy warranties for now.   Last I checked, this website sells to California residents:   http://www.curryhondacare.com/   Request a quote online and enter your email address. They usually email you a coupon for an additional discount. Once you receive the coupon, you'll know your final price.   That's the best online deal I know for CA residents.

#2907 of 3104 Honda Care Warranty... by fmichael May 22, 2009 (6:26 am)
Not to beat a dead horse, but are both Saccucci warranty, & Bernardi warranty still legit if I live in Wisconsin, & purchase online?   Honda Motor will not render these invalid in the near future, nor will I have issues from the dealer I choose to have it serviced at?   Looking to purchase an Oddy tonight, & would like to purchase the extended warranty shortly thereafter.   Thanks for any additional/updated info!

Replying to: fmichael (May 22, 2009 6:26 am) As I have said numerous times before. Honda cannot and will not invalidate warranties, nor will you have issues at any dealers. Nothing is happening on the legal front. The gears are still slowly turning. Also it is worth noting that both Bernardi and Curry refuse to contribute to our legal fund. -Gardiner Replies to this message: fmichael (May 22, 2009 9:00 am) bigdadi118 (May 22, 2009 11:33 am) jet10000 (May 22, 2009 1:55 pm)

Replying to: gardinerr (May 22, 2009 7:01 am) Thanks for your reply...Just wanted confirmation that there wouldn't be any issues from Honda Motor if I were to purchase from you guys there at Saccucci Honda.     Replies to this message: bigdadi118 (May 22, 2009 11:33 am) jet10000 (May 22, 2009 1:55 pm)

Replying to: fmichael (May 22, 2009 9:00 am) Confirmation? You should get it in black and white from Honda, not here. What do you do if one said 'YES' and another guy said 'NO' here? Replies to this message: jet10000 (May 22, 2009 1:55 pm)
