GEN 2 Thoughts on extended warranty?

[recurve69]

I currently have a 2020 with right at 40K miles. It's a garage queen never been off road. I know that we all have opinions on extended warranties and that's what I'm asking about. Is it worth it or not? Am I approaching based on miles for having a possible significant failure where I might seriously regret not having one? Or is one immanent down the road? To date have done all required maintenance, which has not been much. I've looked into them a little and we are talking about 3/4 K on having a 3/4 year extended warranty. Or should I just blow it off and deal with my future problem when it occurs? Thanks for any input I get.

I have a 2020 about to hit 80 that I already have 100 K factory warranty on. Considering extending that if nothing else for the electronics and possible phaser failure.

My thoughts, I wish that I had purchased as much warranty as possible back when I had the chance, 5k mi out of warranty it cost me 16 or 18 hundred for the rear end to be rebuilt. Sept of last year it cost me $4300 for the cam phasers. Of course, if you buy it, you won't need it. (Murphys Law)
Best wishes for your decision

Ford esp.
Mines paid for itself already :

Phasers
Sunroof track
Ac compressor

I feel like the service managers don't mess with you as much when they see you have a warranty on the truck.

Don't buy it....

At 40k I don't think it's worth it. If you were at 80k like I am, might be worth a consideration.

Mine covered the Phasers and a few trips for a tailgate release actuator issue. Paid for itself 3x over and I’m only at 57k.

76k when I bought my 2018. 100k extended warranty. 86k miles warranty paid out over $10k for both front and rear axles. It was a process fooling with the warranty, but worth it.

Get it online.

There are 3 or 4 dealers online that sell them *way* cheaper than your dealer will sell it for.

Hey, so I got my '19 Raptor three years ago, right in the middle of the pandemic when prices were insane. I wrestled with the extended warranty, everyone told me I was getting ripped off, but I got it anyway. And guess what? The day after I bought it, the turbos blew – warranty! Four months later, the seat electronics crapped out – warranty! Early on, it was a no-brainer. Now, three years later, it's in the shop for an emissions sensor, and the back electrical plug's been acting up – BOOM, extended warranty again! I've had tons more stuff fixed, too. Seriously, this thing's saved me thousands between labor and parts. It was a lot of tech, so I figured it was worth it. It's been a lifesaver, even including rental cars when it's in the shop. Sometimes the risk pays off, but I've definitely had bad warranty experiences before. Hope this helps! Aloha!
