Extend Warranty Questions

[RubHer Yellow Ducky]

OK...I went back and read all the old threads on the extended warrantys...i was against tham at the time but now I've got 45000 miles on the YELLOW DUCKY and I'm thinking i may have been wrong...

I started collecting all the info and warranty work & pricing I would have paid if it had not been warranty and WOW/DAM/CHIT...that would have been a lot of money had I paid for the work...(remember I have 2 H-3's...)

So...I'm looking for the CURRENT OPINIONS on the GM extended warranty, where to buy/if they are still selling them/who to buy from/what to pay/who is discounting them/will the New Chinese owners have them/personal experiences/

also have anyone had good luck with non-GM warranties/which ones/any problems with the dealer in using them/will the dealer allow payment direct from the warranty company...

I have to decide in a couple of days as well. I'm close to 50K and 4 years on my 2006 H3, I checked out gmoutlet.com and their prices seem to be good (remember Hummer has an extra charge on top of the normal GMPP). I also contacted a few months ago another dealer which was mentioned here on the forum ( will get the name when I find it again). Let me know what you find.

Thanks,
Eric

Best GM prices I found were here: http://gmextendedwarrantystore.com/

I had a friend get an extended warranty from http://www.autorepairwarranty.com/index.htm and has had several issues with coverage.

I use GMPP Major Guard on my H2 and have been very happy...

I may be in the same boat (thinking about ext. warranty). I'm just glad that the warranty is 4 years and not 3. Mine is up at the end of Oct. (currently have 38k mi).

In the past few months I had a lot of warranty items fixed/replaced (marker light noise, side mirror, falling apart chrome fuel door, rear wiper fluid pump, etc.). Just recently had the check engine light go on. Had the fuel cap message come on too, so thought it was just a broken fuel cap. I've driven with it for a while. Finally got it in today thinking I'd be in and out with a new fuel cap (dealer is about an hour drive away, so it isn't easy) and the service mgr said yep I need a new fuel cap, current one isn't sealing... oh and your rental is coming because you need a new head.

I'm lucky its under 50k mi and under 4 years, or that would have been one heck of an added expense I didn't need right now.

Well its been 8 days and only 3 replys...this site is really slowing down...I'm at the dealer now for some alignment work and am going to question the pricing on the GM X-tend-warr here...but will also look at the site mentioned above...My Moms H-3 only has about 14000 miles but her time is up in Jan 2010 also...so I have to worry about 2 H-3's. could be talking about $7500 total for both...a lot to pay but its a gamble either way...Would like to hear morehonest opinions...!

yeah i've been watching your post to see if there were any replies, it sure has slowed down here, i saw that there is another hummer blog.

i'm in the same boat getting real close to 50k, so after talking to a lot of car peeps, i decided to buy the ext, warranty 3 more yrs, 45k more miles for $2700.

just in case, peace of mind, and if i resell that may help resale.
