    It's insurance; they don't want to pay. In some cases, they will pay for a fuel pump (for instance), but not the labor to get to it. A friend who has been with Endurance for like 8 years. He acted thrilled that they paid a $3500 repair, but considering his premiums equaled to $9600, he paid 3 times the cost. Another guy I know had to fight Car Shield because they wanted him to pay $1800 of a $2300 repair because of labor. My car is out of warranty and if it breaks down, I'll fix it. I've already saved $1000 by not buying an extended warranty and keeps compounding. I may sell my car before it needs work anyway.
    Thanks for the video!

    @ccc822007 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    What if they fix something and that something wasn't broken so they charge you the deductable for that and you bring it back 3 weeks later and it's a part of the same issue i.e. first they replace the orings supposing there's a leak. That wasn't the problem but they charged you for it anyways, then you bring it back 3 weeks later and it turns out to be a condensor, so they charge you another 100 deductable for the condensor. What would you do? They misdiagnosed the problem the first time but charged you both times. All issues deal with an AC system.

    My 07 infiniti G35 sedan(G37 style) Maxcare extended warranty from Carmax will expire in 5,000 miles. With that being said I just bought another extended warranty with Endurance Vehicle Protection. The warranty last I believe 5 years or 180,000 miles(I only have 119,000 miles) with a $100 deductible. Cover just about everything. Hoping this company is as good or better that maxcare. I've had amazing service with max care..

    Hi, I have a Kia Soul. I found out after a few years that the dashboard was made with poor material. it is always sticky. I cannot clean it properly. Lately, i have noticed a rust spot in the middle of the front of the roof. I found out that it would cost over 1,000.00 to fix it. Do you think it's worth getting some kind of warrantee? I am always being robo called for extended warrantees, but I never answer them. Do you think it might serve a purpose for me to look into it? I bought my car in 2011. Thanks for your help.

    • @CarFanatic
      @CarFanatic  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      The warranty won't cover that stuff. See if the factory warranty for the body is still good. Usually manufacturers have pretty long corrosion coverage. The sticky dash is likely due to heat. It's probably melted. This happened on my mom's Subaru, which led to a recall.

    Good video!! Aftermarket warranties are deep waters to wade into. Buyer beware! I looked into this for my wife's X5 after we came out of the factory warranty and when you start you just get bombarded with sites that want your business (read money). Then you can hit the forums but a lot of companies start off good then turn to crap after a few years so you've got to have current info. Some companies change their name after their rating plummet from shiesty business practices. I ended up just skipping out all together and taking my chances with BMW's German engineering.
    With a P-car I will definitely have a warranty.
    On another note, it barely caught on, but it seems you were doing a little green screen. I could be wrong but if I'm right, you got the lighting working damn near perfect. If I'm wrong, I guess that would explain why the lighting/shadows, etc are so damned good. It just looked like you would bounce around ever so slightly over the back ground. Maybe I've had too much Redbull. Liked!
