I don’t know of any good ones but it’s a great idea for you to extend. With the auto tariffs going into effect April 2 car prices and parts will go up in price. They dealers will feel the effects in close car sales and will raise their labor rates also to make up for losses.
I looked them up and to get a really good one, it cost somewhere near $6000.00 per year. A new transmission is about $3000.00 and even a new engine was about $5000.00. The likelihood of either one being a problem in the first year would be slime and therefore the first year would be pure profit and maybe even two years. It's a gamble but if one has taken care of their car, there is a good chance one would have just given them what it would cost to replace the whole thing. I have determined that the best way to make sure you have a warrantee in place is by acquiring a new car.
I have a 2019 VW Jetta R-line. Bright red and one of the most fun cars I have ever owned. I'm about a week away from having 52K miles on it and so far it has had about 3 minor factory recalls and 3 mechanical things covered by the warrantee, none of them severe.
I used to own VW cars. It’s critical to keep up with scheduled maintenance and repairs as they happen. Going the extended warranty route is piece of mind and even hit with a huge bill you will be glad you have the warranty.
This is my forth VW and I have never had serious problem with any of them. Two sensors six years apart and a heater fan in the middle of that. I usually put at least 100K on every car I have had except for my first VW a 1962 Beetle (Germany's Pregnant Roller Skate). That one was pretty primitive. I bought it used and kept it about a year or so and went for something bigger, but it never was any problem except for occasionally needing to adjust the valves. I could push it into a gas station completely out of gas and fill it up for less than $3.00. That must be what they meant by the good old days.
