I believe that I saw something similar on a previous posting, but it was a spin off of the original subject....
Question is, if you have extended warranty, how much did you pay and for how long?

I remember someone saying that it's only 900 for a 6-year if you purchase it from Nissan....is that true? If yes, how do you buy it? Through a dealer or directly through Nissan?

 

Don't get the extended warranty.

 

i have it....

i already have 14000+ miles in 6 months...

Ill have 100000 in no time

 

Am I reading it wrong or are you guys simply not answering my questions.

The question is HOW MUCH DID YOU PAY YOURS FOR? IF YOU HAVE EXTENDED WARRANTY.

 

Sorry for not answering the question directly. I was just trying to save you from spending money on something you don't need because your post said that you were thinking of getting the extended warranty. Paying any amount for an extended warranty when you have a perfectly good factory warranty is too much. You don't need the extended warranty until your factory warranty is ready to expire. Even after it expires, you only need the warranty if you have continual workmanship or manufacturing problems and you decide to keep the car longer.

 

Ok, i never said that I was "THINKING" about extended warranty.
All I asked...and still asking is how much are "PEOPLE WITH EXTENDED WARRANTY" paid for theirs.

I already have it, and I think i paid too much since i saw a previous posting that someone paid $900 for a 6 year warranty.


Let me repose my question for the third time:

TO ALL YOU PEOPLE WHO HAS EXTENDED WARRANTY, HOW MUCH DID YOU PAY??? AND WHERE DID YOU GET IT??? DEALER OR DIRECTLY THROUGH NISSAN???

 

The above quote makes it sound like you were thinking about getting the extended warranty. Didn't mean to get you all riled up.

You can also do a search on this site. It will bring up more threads on extended warranties.

If you do a Google search on "automobile extended warranty" you might be able to find what the online brokers are selling theirs for and do a price comparison.

 

With this attitude I'm surprised anyone has responded to you.

Just look at the replies to my FIRST posting, what kind of attitude would you have?

Read my question and read the answer from this bright guy:

"i have it....

i already have 14000+ miles in 6 months...

Ill have 100000 in no time

.......................................

 

To cut to the chase, if you have it, you paid too much. No need to compare one person that paid too much with another person that paid too much.

Just my opinion and I'm entitled to that.

 

I have it, and yes, I confirmed that I overpaid.
So I am going to cancel it per Aggro_Al's advice.

 

lol @ the kid

 

My dealership wanted something like 750 for extended.

 

An extended warranty is basically a wager. You are betting that you will need more repairs than the price of the warranty. The seller of the warranty is betting that you won't.

The problem is that THEY have all of the repair records and historical data to come up with a statistical model. (for your car model, or similar models from the same maker) If they charge, say, $900 for a warranty you KNOW that the statistic indicate that the car will need less than that amount of work. Probably a LOT less tha that.

It is true that on a particular car you might come out ahead. But it is sort of like a casino. In the end the house makes the rules and they ON AVERAGE they are the only ones who win.

Extended warrantees can pay off a jackpot, and the incentive to buy them works on a similar mechanism as the incentive to gamble. When you buy and then actually use the warranty you are very happy and remember that event. When you don't end up using it you don't much think about the money you wasted. (Jackpot/Reward response mechanism)

It is the same mechanism that makes a cat come running 1000 times for the sound of the can opener even if it has been 2 years since he has had food from a can.

On the other hand.....

There are 2 good reason to get an extended warranty that I can think of.

1) If you never have any money in the bank and an unexpected repair would wipe you out. Then you are paying for the security.

2) If you have some reason to believe your particular car, or this particular model, will have more problems than the statistical models indicate. In this case you have a reason to think you can beat the odds.

I am not saying nobody should get it. But on average it is a bad bet.

 

i got the max for free i think its 7 or 8 year 100,000....it showed it was dealercost at $1000....

being a my350z ex-owner helped..hee hee....that and bitching and moaning.

 

Good Deal! Just make sure they aren't making you follow some outrageously expensive maintenance plan to keep your extended warranty in effect or that they didn't hide it in the financing.

You'll have to show the rest of us how to get the same deal.

 

I got the 70,000 mile 5yr gold warranty. "they have a couple different warranties" silver, etc.
Anyway I think it was $1200 and was just financed with the car.
I usually don't go with warranty's but because this was a new model I thought it might be handy plus you get free loners when ever it's in for service.
I've had my car a little over a year and only have 6.5K on it for what it's worth.
