I purchased a warranty from www.clickeverythingauto.com To date this was a great purchase. I have only had one claim but everything was covered and I had a zero deductible. How can I complain. My husband bought a roadside program from clickeverythingauto as well. I think before anyone buys they should review their program. Just my opinion since we had good results.

| Thanks to those of you that responded to my post regarding my question about GM Extended Warranties. I have decided that I'm most definitely going to buy a GM warranty for my '07 GMC Acadia and not the EasyCare warranty that my dealer wants me to buy. I want the warranty that's going to be there in the long-term and one that my car manufacturer is going to back. | |

Replying to: geffen (May 11, 2008 6:35 am)  . Even an original new car factory "powertrain warranty" is not that much good unless you have a serious problem. An idle control valve went bad on a car we used to own and the car could hardly be started and driven and would die at idle. Hey, I though, we are still under the powertrain warranty so lets have the dealer fix it for free. Clearly this is part of the powertrain and the motor will not run without it. Nope, only "internally lubricated parts" are covered by the factory powertrain warranty. I got a used valve for $20 from the junk yard and fixed it myself. You are not the only one that like peace of mind, that is why the F&I folks can see so many of these at such high prices. No matter if it is high pressure or fear, folks cave in a buy them and usually at a really high price. I have seen folks in the Honda forum deal down to invoice on the car then pay 2x or more in the F&I room for HondaCare than is costs to buy online. They did all their homework on the price of the car then were sand bagged on the warranty. I would advise anyone looking to get a factory backed warranty to get online price quotes before you buy the car - just like you look up invoice and get quotes for the CAR itself. Then if you decide you want the warranty and they push you in the F&I office you pull out your cheapest online quote for the same policy and ask them to beat it. If they can, then buy it. If they can't, that should at least shut them up . Denns |
