extended warranty on GT-P how much $$$

[FTGAutosalvage]

got my 15000 k service done today and as the warranty expires in 2 weeks i asked about extended warranty for it. i was quoted $1500 for 3 years or up to 100,000 ks (i dont think ks will be a problem)

this seems to be a lot. is this a dealer priced thing or is the price set down by ford.

what have others paid for this warranty??

i really want a warranty as the thing has only done 1000 ks since the new engine went in and i want to make sure it is a good one!

That's what I got quoted - you should try RACV extended warranty, I looked into it but they wouldn't do an ACT car. From memory it was quite a bit cheaper ($800-$900??) and they seemed a lot more flexible than Ford too.

There are many different companies that offer it, through ford i was given the option of going with a company called "swan", wich matched everything ford did, but for half the price. ask about that?

whatever you do read the fine print.....really well

My warranty on my XR8 runs out in March, so when I had the 45,000 service done last week I asked them the same question. The most expensive one was to extend warranty for another 3 years and up to 160,000kms. The price for this was $1565. There was however 6 different options for warranty extention, length of time and km amounts. I think that I will be going for either 2 year 100,000kms for $1065 or if I get a bit of overtime when I go back to work, I'll get the $1565 one. I was also told that this warranty is exactly the same as the original factory one.
Hope this helps.

shouldnt your new engine ( only) be covered by a new warranty . i'd look into that.
imagine the new engine went in on the last day of warranty . does that mean you wouild drive out of the dealership with no warranty on the engine ???

i'd paid around that amount for Ford extended warranty on my AU2.

its still under warranty til end of next year, as i bought it from a dealer haha

$1500 for a further 3 years is good insurance on a BA. But as far as your new engine goes, isn't that covered by a lifetime like warranty where they warrant any new part put in your car arising from a repair.
