prepaid maintenance is not good for people driving less than 10k a year. It will expire.

Why the maintenance is useless when driving less? They don't allow mainrenance done yearly if the 16k km/yr is not reached?

 

If you have 22 inch wheels. The rim protection is a must on Canadian roads. Especially in Toronto and Montreal. I drive very carefully, but somehow my 22s are bent. The cost seems reasonable for the warranty and rim protector. as the other poster said, skip the prepaid maintenance if you dont drive much.

 

If this is the same warranty extension that they offer with CPOs, then yes it’s absolutely worth it. I would recommend getting the maximum you can, or as long as you think you'll own the car.

For better pricing - with the CPO, I shopped around for quotes from different dealers for the best price. Saved a few hundred by doing that. Not sure if that is the same for brand new.

 

I paid like $6k for 200k km and my deductible is $250...
I pay monthly however it made the piller less hard to swallow.

Hi @lyj111121 I'm reading your post today, and I'm in a similar boat as you were in when you wrote this post.
I purchased a 2019 V60 last year in 2023, it is under CPO warranty and I'm wondering if I should go for the extended warranty.
I want to ask you if you went for the Ex warranty and if so, what has your experience been so far? Also, do you know if labour is covered under the "All-In" plan?

No I didn't buy it. Would rather have more flexibility as I may not hold the car for the that long.

 

For a 2017 with 130k km, I was only quoted in terms of b/w cost... $115 b/w for 130.

If you're taking it to the dealer for every minor thing, I suppose it would quickly pay for itself, but damn that's 15k, or half the value of a well optioned early SPA XC90.

In the past year, I could've spent $4500 on a headlight, probably $1000 on a seized caliper, and another few hundred on having the steering wheel controls/harness swapped out.

On the other hand, the headlight needed a good drying, some epoxy to fix the dumb alignment nubs, plus a $100 low beam module. The caliper is working fine after a $40 rebuild kit, and the steering wheel controls just need a push in the right spot to plug themselves back in.

Basically whether it's worth it comes down to how you plan to maintain it, and what you're prepared to pioneer/tinker with.

Extended warranty plan doesn't cover exterior lights and brakes anyways. So even if you opted in for the plan, those things you listed wouldn't be covered.
