But the aftermarket warranties are worthless- they have so many exclusions and they don`t pay any claims. So go ahead and cancel the Fidelity warranty.Fidelity has horrible BBB ratings and they are a big ripoff. Buy an original manufacturer factory GM warranty from any dealer in USA.You can do an online search or look up Chevy/GM forums for the dealers selling this. A Chevy Cobalt definitely needs an extended warranty ,,an origina lFactory GM  warranty,,that is...

Sharon, I can do the same wrap 7/70k for 691.00 with a reputable company that I will be GLAD to send you info on, it you want to fill out your car info on my website. It's one thing to provide information... it's another to solicit business.  Hosts, kindly show him the door.

Most dealers sell aftermarket service contracts, as well as Manufacturer-backed plans. You'll notice those of us here who recommend mf-backed plans call them 'manufacturer-backed', not 'dealer'. 'Dealer warranty' is a bigger misnomer than 'extended warranty' in my book. Some dealerships sell service contracts that are only good at their shop, and are backed only by the owner of the 'ship. Advertising is disallowed on this forum; a moderator has been informed.

Replying to: rnixon (Apr 17, 2009 11:34 am) I have owned Toyota,Honda,Saturn,Dodge,Nissan cars ,,so I know quite a lot about cars .My profession is totally different from the car industry,,,unlike you  .Just that cars have been a childhood hobby. Also soliciting business on this forum is illegal,,so please stop doing it  Again folks here will tell u-- 3rd party warranties are junk,,,manuf. warr. are the best.You can use them at any dealer in US. Folks who visit these forums have genuine concerns about their cars and they are not brokers like u who come and spam these boards. Again ,,,folks here will tell u,, all 3rd party warranties are junk,crap,worthless-- and Original factory manuf . warr is always the best.Original is original,,duplicate is duplicate!!
