Coverage engine - up to $3000 transmission - up to $3000 differential - up to $2000 cooling - up to $2000 electrical - up to $1000 brakes - up to $1000 clutch - up to $1000 suspension - up to $1000 electrical ignition - up to $1000 fuel system - up to $1000 abs brakes - up to $1000 cv joints - up to $1000 air conditioning - up to $1000 steering - up to $1000 power windows - up to $1000 Obviously sounds like a good deal, just curious if it's too good to be true and if anyone else has been presented with this offer.. cheers |

waste of money. does not cover normal wear and tear items normally. all are different though.
i friend once purchased a 2000 laser in 2005. power window in back right stopped working 10 days after purchase. due to age of car, it was classed as wear and tear. so not covered. alot of BS to me. that policy is $1000 extra and 90% of the items it covers is only up to $1000. bogus. save the $1000 for when you actually need to do real repairs. ps - worn clutch will not be covered. will go soon due to age of car. |

I agree with Ryan, every aftermarket warranty I have seen has not been worth the piece of paper its written on.
None cover what actually fail in a car and you normally have to get your car serviced every 5000 km at their nominated dealer. Save your money till you actually need it for repairs. |
