Extended Warranty (2014 528i)
Hi Folks,
Just curious to find out what everyone's take is on the extended warranty plan? I think the BMW plans are expensive. Heard about Route 66 and one more 3rd party extended warranties. Any suggestions of which any good ones? also, is it worth it? regards, |

I would recommend it. I forgot which one I got but I bought it from BMW but its not BMW's warranty. Its all chance of wether or not your car is going to need it.
For me, I got my extended warranty at 49.5k miles (warranty is for another 50k and like 3 years. At 53k miles, the car started leaking oil so I took it into the dealer. They had the car for a week (gave me a BMW rental). They needed up replacing all the oil seals, filter and the oil itself. The price of all of that was the same price I paid for the warranty. In essence, this one problem paid for my warranty. |

I have my warranty through USAA which goes through Assurant. They cover everything that's not wear and tear/preventative maintenance items (clutch, brake pads/rotors, etc). I have it on my M6 and my 535i and on the M6 it repaired a cooling system issue, a thermostat replacement, and a rental car for the weekend which altogether was half of what I paid for the 2 year warranty itself, and this was 500 miles into my purchase. Still have 23,500 to go!

The one I got covers bumper to bumper AND there is 0 deductible. What they don't cover are things like general maintenance items, entertainment system speakers, head unit, navi etc. They have a list somewhere but what matter is the high priced items are covered. Also they don't pay for fluids and sales tax (I think) |
