Almost always extended warranties are a scam. I second what Dan says, look really hard at the contract for it, and see just what is covered and when.

We can't tell you those details here because it will vary from dealer to dealer.

I would ask hard questions on this one I paid almost a thousand dollars for an extended warranty on a used car and six weeks later I had to tow the car in. I showed them the warranty paper work and they answered oops it does not cover the computer and parts. It was running parts only like engine and tranny.

I just bought a 2018 traverse and I'm wondering why the auto stop/start feature only works part of the time? It might auto stop at one light, then not at the next. Is something wrong?

Brand new Traverse should be covered under the 3yr. / 36k bumper to bumper warranty. If it isn't much past the warranty bumper to bumper the dealership you purchased the vehicle from may "goodwill it" and go ahead and repair the issue but that is souly up to the shop management to honor something like that. They may repair it or if you have an extended warranty purchased during the purchase of the vehicle, they will honor that warranty. I hope this helps you in the issue.

How to Buy an Extended Car Warranty?

If you decide to purchase an extended warranty be very cautious and make sure you ask questions. I purchased one for about nine hundred dollars and six weeks later my car broke down on the road. After getting towed in and telling me my car computer had mal functioned and I needed a new one. I assumed it was covered so I told them to repair it. Six hundred dollars later I showed them my warranty and they said it was no good. Why?
There was a clause in there that anything to do electrical was not covered in small print of course. Computer is classified as an electrical item. My warranty covered Power Train only and they did not tell me that. Power train covers transmission - Motor and the wheel bearings stuff like that. I will never purchase one again as they wanted an extra amount of money for electrical items coverage.

I bought a used Ford Escape, the finace manager was very misleading in providing the actual amount of extended warranty. I apparently purchased a protection plan which after looking into it is a total...

$385-$2000 depending on what you want covered and the mileage. Depending on your state, you have a limited time to take the car back for a refund. It may be 3-7 days, really depends where you live.

Would the drivers side sun visor be covered under the warranty? It will no longer stay up. The care is a 2006 sonata with about 57,000 miles.

Dear Loose Visor....
If you purchased this vehicle new than this visor still might be covered under warranty...especially if you bought an extended warranty.Some warranty companies cover any and everything from bumper to bumper no questions asked.A sure answer would be to make a quick phone call to either the extended warranty company if you have that coverage or the dealer that you had purchased this vehicle from.Thanks for your time!!! If you have any more questions you can get back to me.HOPE I COULD HELP!!!
