I just put my deposit down for my TCH. Thank you to everyone in the other threads for the experience and guidances you have posted. I may be interested in getting the extended warranty on this vehicle. I know that extended warranties are worth it on cars like a Jeep Grand Cherokee and NOT worth it on like a Honda Pilot (even though I bought one). What is the general feeling about them on this new vehicle? For my Honda Pilot, there was a dealer on some Honda forums that offered rock-bottom prices through the mail for an extended warranty (not a third party warranty). Anyone know of a similar situation with Toyota? I am not interested in a third party warranty like through warrantydirect. Also, my dealer offered a maintenance package, I think it was called "Toyota Care" but I could be wrong. Basically, you pay something like $980 up front and it pays for your first 10 services. I never heard of this. Is this a dealer-specific offer? Any insights? Thanks all.

Replying to: njerald (Apr 28, 2006 9:52 am) I also was not able to find anything regarding this maintainence package. Can you please clue me in on some good search keywords? Otherwise, does anyone have any knowledge about this prepaid maintenance (oil changes, etc) agreement?

Do you feel lucky? I've never considered the maintenance contract because I will use synthetic after another 2 oil changes and I never plan on going to any dealer for other than warranty service. If you go to the dealer for all your service it may be ok if you get it at a significant reduction from retail like the service contract. I'm sure the low price service contract dealers will have an attractive price on the maintenance contract also. |

When you go to any dealer for service under your extended warranty,what do you show - your warranty contract or some type of warranty ID card ? Can the dealer that is working on your car see where you purchased your warranty and how much you paid for it ? I'd hate to buy my warranty in Virginia and find out 3 or 4 years later that a dealer in my state of Illinois will give me a hard time getting my car fixed . I'd like to hear from someone that purchased in one state and had his car fixed in another .

Replying to: just1guy (May 19, 2006 3:45 pm) The warranty is from Toyota, NOT from the dealer. Normally you do not need to show your warranty card. They can look up the warranty through Toyota. |
