Coming up on 10k miles here, considering buying a plan ($3300 for 6 years/75k total, $4900 for 7 years/100k). Toughest part is: after two dozen vehicles, never sure how long I'll hold onto one (sometimes months, most a year or two, very rarely over 3 years).

I bought it just before warranty expires, I have 3K/ or three months left on factory warranty. Most warranty's will pro rate unused portion, and refund part back if you sale it before expires. Check on that.

I had bought one thru the dealer a couple months before I traded it. $3,900 for 75K 5 year. When I traded I got a refund of $3,600.

Wow, thank you for the info. Do you remember the company who the policy was through?

I think I'm going to pull the trigger on a 72mo/75k policy through my dealer. I know there's a pro-rated credit, but no one has been able to give me an idea of what I can expect back at all (I'm sure it's spelt out in the contract, waiting on that now).
