Anyone get an extended warranty here?

LT4 650 · 01-29-2021, 01:58 PM

Thinking about getting a GM extended warranty for my "Stock" 2019.

Has anyone heard of this place https://www.knappvehicleservicecontr...0aAkbZEALw_wcB

Or has anyone done business with them...their prices are pretty good. I know I used to be in the auto warranty business (not GM). But still looks like some profit built into the pricing so could be legit???

I used Peyton Farnsworth Extended Warranty Sales 406-896-3080
I did the Platinum plan added 3 years to the original factory warranty. If you didn't buy one when you bought the car the Platinum is as good as it gets. Its close to the factory warranty but leaves off a few items like trim piece, nothing that concerned me. My car only had 3000 miles when I added it so the cost was much lower then I expected. I think my max milage is 54K which will never happen, I'm at 4200 so my concern was time. Cost was 548.00 as the warranty specialist was looking to get business name out. Its a reputable Chevy dealer but its good in the entire US so it really doesn't matter who you get it from.

Way to go- best price (almost unbelievable). I got 6yrs / 65k add on miles

Nope didn’t get an extended warranty on my ZL1 that I bought used. Just couldn’t see spending more money on a warranty that I might or might not use.

LOL...I hear you. That is always the tough thing to decide. I am still even trying to decide if I am going to build mine some (750hp) or keep it stock and try to hang on too it for a long time. So I thought I would start looking into what an extended warranty is all about.

The place in my OP quoted me 84 months and 75K miles ($100 deductible) for $1,750. So if I plan to hanging onto this car for years it could be well worth it at that price. Just trying to verify that it is a true GMEPP warranty before I call them.

Yeah I understand LT4 650! The extended warranty they offered me was a company that was not affiliated with GM and I had real concerns about that. The extended warranty was going to cost over $3000 also.

Yes have to be careful of that...and the markup on these warranties can be CRAZY...I know I used to work for an aftermarket auto warranty company and I got employee rate and it was sooooooooooo cheap compared to what the dealer offered at sale for the exact same thing. The dealerships make a fortune on these things.

This one I looked into is fairly cheap but from what I know it still does appear to have some profit margin built into the price so could be legit. Again...if it is a true GMEPP warranty then it would be worth considering.

Yes. At the dealer they can see the warranty on their screens when they pull up my VIN.

JonDaddy82 · 02-01-2021, 11:19 AM

I'm looking into getting one these year as my 2018 will be running out soon. It's not so much for the powertrain for for everything else.
