Perhaps it has already been discussed and perhaps it is valid all over the world but here in Italy from the first of September the guarantee has been extended to 5 years

Warranty

 

Man, this would be awesome. Hope it also happens for us here stateside. Not holding my breath though.

 

Wow, if this came to the US it would change my perspective on keeping the car for sure.... Fingers crossed.

 

Fascinating. Sales must be down in Italy (?)

 

In other countries too it seems, not in North America....

 

Absolutely not... at the moment it is one of the brands that expect the most for delivery

 

Interesting, I wonder why they are extending warranty by a year then. I see you're in Italy -- Maybe it's something other brands are doing and they're matching term for competitive reasons?

 

Jaguar in the us has 5yr/60k. LR should match it tbh. its the same company lol.

 

Bumping this up. Since we here in the US are not as lucky as the Italians, what are you guys pushing 50k plus miles doing for extended warranty? Costs? My local dealer pests me around over and over with letters offering the extended warranty, but I haven't had the guts to ask the price yet. My Defender is a 2020, so soon enough I will have to decide on trading in or biting the bullet on the extended warranty. It seems to me trading in is a poor financial decision when compared to even the most expensive warranty. Opinions?

 

Once the guarantee has expired, it is worth underlining that the manufacturers are not always inflexible in denying the intervention. Not infrequently the builder agrees to take on the burden of some repairs even if the coverage has expired. It is the so-called "commercial fairness": the company, despite having no obligation, nevertheless intervenes both on the basis of considerations of commercial opportunity (to improve customer satisfaction) and because it is aware that such a model has suffered from a certain defect ... so in my opinion wait to decide...
