Re: Extended Warranty Purchase
Sandman,<br /><br />I had posted on another thread about the importance of reading the policy before buying into it - and I thoroughly stand behind that.<br /><br />While it's true that on an overall financial standpoint, that extended warranties are a "cash cow" for the people selling them (i.e. GE Financial) - I have yet to buy an extended waranty that hasn't paid for itself in repairs. <br /><br />My '95 Chevy Blazer had all the items replaced under the extended warranty - and only cost me a minimal deductible after the manufacturer warranty was up: Water pump replaced, hood latch cable replaced, alternator & charging system replaced, transmission given major overhaul 6 months ago, and then last month was completely replaced, and who knows what else I will have to have replaced on it before my 100,000 mile extended warranty is up. I've got 18,000 miles to go. (and I'm crossing my fingers).<br /><br />As with any major $$ - research who's got a track record for a good product the first time around - as well as who can actually perform repairs to a standard that will keep you pleased as a customer.<br /><br />G'Luck!<br />Rex S
