Wondering about adding longer warranty
Wondering if it is worth it to add the extra bumper to bumper warranty after the original 36 month, 60,000 mile one expires? $2600 in USA.

No, not worth it, too much profit in that.
|
haggle on the price, have them come down on it $2600 is way too much
|
that is a crazy high price, somewhere in the $600-800 range would be more reasonable depending on the length of the warranty. Also check who the warranty is through, I hear Mazda has linked up with some aftermarket company but many dealers sell warranties from other companies and the warranty is only as good as the company backing it. And I don't even know if the company Mazda is using is good.

beckyvoss - So what happened? Did you pass on the deal?

I took it. 5 years 100,000 miles. With all city driving and 4 kids, I'll most likely get my money back.

Good Investment

The chances of mechanical problems down the road are significant, once the CX-5 exceeds 100K miles. Therefore most of the warranties mentioned will be expired by the time non-routine repairs are necessary.

Just make sure you do your proper oil change intervals and keep receipts. :eek: |
We bought a new Chevy Silverado HD in 2005 and bought the extended warranty for $1700. We had to have a major break job done after 4 years that was covered by warranty. It would have cost $3800 out of our pocket otherwise.
