I've had extended warranties on my last five cars and came out WAY ahead in all of them. For this Camaro I went with Route 66 through my credit union PenFed. It's $1395. Zero deductible. It's covers you for 5 years from the date you buy the warranty and covered to 100k miles whichever comes first. It's great if you have a low milage car. And it's "exclusionary." Meaning there's a small list of things not covered (brakes, trim, tires, hoses) and everything else is covered by default. This is VERY important. Any warranty that's not exclusionary is a crap shoot even if it's called, "bumper to bumper." That's a legally meaningless term used to con you into thinking it covers everything like the factory warranty. NOT! It must list only what's NOT covered to be anything close to a factory warranty. If you see a list of what IS covered it's going to have a lot of holes in it.
The reason it's so reasonable is they exclude unreliable cars like certain Mercedes, Jaguars and some BMWs.

The one you want is Easy Street coverage if your car qualifies.
