It’s really a kind of insurance, and like insurance it’s a gamble. On average dealerships must win, or they would’t offer it, but that’s not to say that some customers don’t “win” if they got unlucky with their car.
That being said, I opted out of it with my last car.
- gumby 6y agoI did buy an extended warranty for one car, never had a warranty claim until it broke down with only about three or four months left on the warranty. That one paid off. In another car (same mfr) I looked into getting one when the regular warranty was about to run out. Sales guy looked and said: main thing that happens to these older cars is X and Y and you already replaced X so it's not worth it. I always wondered if what he really meant was "main thing that happens is something expensive and I'd rather get paid retail to fix that". Either way I skipped it and never had a problem. I do consider it insurance.
