I can't speak specifically for your warranty, and maybe you'll have no issues if you ever need to use it. But, I've had experience with this, and generally discourage people from buying warranties from a 3rd party. It's often much more difficult to receive compensation for a covered repair. You often have to pay for a repair, then get reimbursed, instead of the warranty company paying the shop directly. I've also had difficulty getting compensated for a rental car, which was supposed to be part of the warranty. I eventually got most of my money back for that, but it took 6 weeks to receive it. I'll never buy from a 3rd party again.
that's cool as I don't live in the us I did not know that thanks.
Barr0208 what did that warranty package run you? Fellow Canadian interested in knowing...
With all the stories that are told on this forum about warranty claims being denied, is having the Mopar Extended Warranty really any better than having a 3rd party warranty?
I'll bet that most of the warranty issues that were denied were for things that weren't covered or after the warranty expired. Would you rather deal with a company that has a presence in every state that are open and available or an 800 number that might get answered. If you want to see complaints, Google the 3rd party warranty companies. I chose the FCA extended warranty without hesitation.
The Route 66 warranty has mixed reviews, just like anything else. Some have had very good experiences, others have not. Most of the negative reviews that I read are due to claims being denied for things that are clearly spelled out as being not covered under the warranty. A lot of people are idiots and they don’t read. What appeals the most to me about a third party warranty is that you can have the vehicle repaired at any ASE certified repair facility, not the dealership. If you find a good repair facility, with a savvy owner who knows how to deal with these companies, it’s pretty painless. Route 66 deals directly with the repair facility and pays with a credit card.
I paid $4200 with a zero deductible, but some one in Ontario sad he paid $3800 depends where you live I guess I bought mine in alberta barrhead
how much is the same plan down in your neck of the woods?WOW...that sounds like an awful lot even in CAN dollars
The fact I do know about the FCA warranty is any dealership will fix an issue if I'm traveling anywhere in the country. While I do know a couple decent shops in my area I'm not sure about other parts of the country. I do know, that while there are dealership of less than stellar repute, most can fix issues and do have direct contact with HQ through the star system for advice.
