Hi to all

I am driving a Matrix 09 (18800km now) and understand that the manufacturer warranty is good till 60,000 kn. Not too sure whether it is worthy to pay CAD $ 2841.30 (including tax) to get extend warranty for another 7 years or up to 160,000km (coverage to Year 2016). This extended warranty is not from the original dealership. It is from Auto Experts. $ CAD 50.00 deductible for each repair (no matter what is the total amount, like 3000 bucks). Will you willing to shell out the extra money for this bumper to bumper protection.

Please advise.

I guess you don't have to decide now. Wait until get closer to the expiry date of the original warranty. Then you have better idea if you will keep this car or not.

$2841 for extended warranty on your Toyota?! You've gotta be out of your mind to even consider it! Even though Toyota quality has gone downhill big time (unintended acceleration and everything), they are still sufficiently reliable to not warrant any sort of warranty.

I bought extended warranty on my late Volkswagen when I first had the car (brand new from dealership), and the same "7-year" extended warranty only cost me around $1800 at the time. As reliable as my old Volkswagen was, there is no way it can be more reliable than your Matrix, and I just broken even on my extended warranty. When you factor interest and stuff into consideration, I actually lost money on it for my German car.

Also, keep in mind that your manufacturer already has 2 or 3 years of warranty, so that "7 year" warranty is really just an extra 4 or 5 years. When you spread the costs out, there is no way your 09 Toyota will require $600's worth of unscheduled maintenance / repairs per year.

Keep the $2.8k and just put it in some high interest savings account. When your car breaks down unexpectedly, take money out from that account to pay for the repairs. I guarantee you that by 2016, you'll still have $$ left over in that account.

Japanese is in general more reliable. Unless you to track or auto-cross a lot, then maybe I'll consider that (if I were in your case). $2.8K seems pretty expensive too, is that the price for high mileage?

Not worth it for a Toyota Matrix.

我絕對唔建議大家買唔係原廠OFFER既extended warranty, 要CLAIM起上黎真係好煩，呢樣又唔幫你俾，果樣又要你墊番。好可能有D佢出雞你出豉油既情況出現....

但係你錢依舊係俾左架喎.....

仲有最好睇佢包D 咩，有D 公司可能會包埋D 無無謂謂野。部車舊左通常都係WEAR & TEAR野壞得多，水泵，WINDOW REGULATOR，迫力鉗呢一類，咁如果呢D 佢提都冇咩點提過既就真係無謂。部車真係行得十零萬你都要預左自己整下。

日本車你做足保養就好少壞。

Without us the Compass being invented in Middle Kingdom, all these White folks will still be driving in circles.

GM will soon be changed to Guandong Motors.
Only N America, Mexico report to Detroit, Europe to Germany, rest of the GMs report to Middle Kingdom's office.

For Toyota I dont think it needs extended W.
And if u have a Cryslur it would be futile to buy extended W too, as there may not be any Cryslur around to sell u new parts.
