should i get that extended vehicle warranty
TRANSCRIPT
The customer service representative told me that a new battery would be about $20 and then he went on to tell me
that there were various other prices that I could pay that would include a warranty.
A minute later he came back to the counter and told me that the last time I had a new battery put in the watch,
about three years ago, I had paid for the lifetime warranty and there would be no charge.
I had completely forgotten that I had paid for the lifetime warranty and it turned out to be a good decision.
Perhaps the biggest warranty decision that most of us will make, is whether or not to get an extended vehicle
warranty.
So there you are driving down the road and suddenly you hear a hissing sound or a banging sound and you know that
neither sound means good news.
At that moment you are either happy that your vehicle is under warranty or you regret deciding not to purchase the extended warranty when you bought your car because you
thought it was too much.
Even if your car has been out of its past warranty for years, all you need to do is to contact a company that offers a
Vehicle Service Contract for your car.
These third party vehicle service contracts are used by car owners to pick up where the dealer warranty leaves off.
With newer vehicles being more complex in terms of technology and electronics, those costs are going to
continue to rise.
