Can you buy an extended warranty...

After your original has run out? My CRD has been in the shop about 4 times in the last year for CELs. I was gonna trade it in, but I will get butchered on money if I do that. So I might have to keep driving it past the warranty period. Which scares me with the way this thing goes through EGR valves.

When my Buick was about to go out of warranty, I was contacted by GM to see if I wanted to by in. I already had my Geico Mechanical Breakdown coverage that had a $250 deductible, so I told em no.

You can buy a Chrysler warranty up to 4 years and 48K miles. Much better prices online than at the dealer for the same warranty.

Extended warrantys are all over the place. They are mostly a rip off.

What's an EGR cost to replace? $400 maybe? If the warranty period was up, I'd do it myself for half the money.

I guess if I can get the code read, and verify that was the problem, I could do that.

Chrysler extended warranty is only available for purchase if your vehicle is still under original warranty.

Not true. Up to 48K miles and 4 years old.

As for the discussion of price.... I normally never do extended warranties. But with the transmission problems I've had I just might do the Powertrain Plus warranty for $1100 to take it to 100K miles. Mine is only a 3/36.

Before you do that, check with your bank or credit union. Many of them sell extended warrantys as well.

I was lucky enough to get the 7/70 as the second owner, I feel blessed :0

But see, with my GEICO Mechanical Breakdown coverage, it is $250 deductible. That means if the $3000 tranny grenades on you out of warranty, or any other part, it only cost you $250. It cost me $6 a month. They give the service dept. a GEICO credit card number right on the spot to pay for the difference. No Hassles.

I use Waurrenty Direct for both my GC and CRD.
