Those extended warranty plans are better thought of as "pre-paid service plans." It is basically a bet by the company that you will spend more on the plan than you would at the dealership for repairs. They don't sell those plans with the intention of losing money on them. If you are comfortable making that bet with the company, then by all means, put your money down.

Maximum Care is a Scam
I bought this plan for $2,600 for 3 years of coverage with the $100 deductible, as part of the procedure you are required to do a vehicle inspection to make sure there aren't preexisting conditions, so there goes another $100. A month later I have a claim and take it to the dealer. They don't tell you that they have 24-48 hours to respond and approve your claim, so take whatever time it takes the dealer to determine the issue, then and on 48 hours, so you are basically looking at 3 days without your vehicle before the dealer either gets the ok or not ok to do the repair. It turns out that I have several mechanical issues which totals up to $3,700 of repairs, well Chrysler decides that they are going to DENY ALL OF THEM as they are all PREXISTING CONDITIONS! What a scam, don't waste your money, I am planning on filing a civil lawsuit as I followed the requirements of the program and was approved for the plan until I had a claim that exceeded the value of my payment.

I have been told a transmission will not be available till April 7th. Other vendors said basically the same thing. It is very rough to figure out how I would pay for a bill of around 5000 dollars, parts and labor for a new transmission. I am at wits end. You would think complaining about a long delay would not cause you to be suspended. I was suspended for complaining about a parts availability issue that kept my repairs from being done. None of this had anything at all to do with me. It has everything to do with FCA. I have been suspended for not getting an inspection because of part availability issues. It is a very disheartening situation when you are a poor senior citizen college student on a fixed income and your safety net is pulled from underneath you by a huge corporation.

I recently (last fall) paid $2,200 for Mopar MaxCare 8/60 and the Mopar MVP plan, both $0 deductible. $50 over cost. 2020 Chrysler 300S 5.7. Selling dealer included a lifetime limited powertrain warranty (non Mopar), with $0 deductible for 'free' - I'm sure it was built in to the price of the car.
