Other Warranty Companies?? (besides Ford)
 

My 2014 GT is now out of warranty (40K miles), like a dope I neglected to sign up for the ESP before it hit 36k.


I called Ford, they said to extend my current warranty another 3 years and/or 90k miles, it would cost $2500 (??!!)


Not sure I can swing $2500, and I know there are cheaper used car warranty companies out there.


Can anyone recommend a trustworthy Used Car Warranty Company that work well with Ford and is efficient & easy to deal with (if/when a Warranty repair does arise)??


Thanks!!

Aftermarket warranty
 

Do you belong to AAA? I know they have aftermarket warranty for members. I don't have any info on it as I have ESP but maybe an option. Check it out, might be worth it.

try this:http://www.lombardfordwarrantys.com/

you can select / taylor your warranty based on needs etc. Its on line, and I have used them for four cars over 7 years.

If you can finance that 2,500 bucks, it's probably more worth it than not. You're dealing with just Ford and not a third party, meaning, quicker turn around times for your repairs and less hassle.
Good luck!

I bought a warranty from one of the largest 3rd party warranty companies. They went belly up after about a year. lost all of my money never again. Now I out some money way every month for issues after warranty.

www.floodfordESP.com
www.lombardfordwarrantys.com (use promo code: tweet (saved me an additional $192.00) also have 12 mo 0% financing
www.zieglerfordesp.com
(These are all Ford OEM warranty which is best instead of 3rd party)
Hope this helps

I know that $2,500 seems like a ton of money but, for example, if you were buying that car used from CarMax, that's probably about what their MaxCare warranty would be. I think that's probably a reasonable cost if it's bumper to bumper coverage with a low ($50 or $100) deductible.

Thank you so much for your response to this thread. Lombardy was one of the 3 warranty companies I was looking at, and decided to go with them after reading your feedback. It always helps to hear from someone with actual experience from a particular company. Especially 7 years. They must be doing something right, So thank you! :grin::agree::hail::D

$2500 sounds like way to much money for the extended warranty. However, I don't know how many years it's for, which plan, the mileage etc. I know I paid half that today for 7/75K mile premium. Now, remember, I lose 2 years, because it goes by the date it originally was bought, which in my case, just 2 years ago. So, don't forget to compensate for the difference.

There are warranty companies selling OEM Ford Warranties for 1/2 the price of what you just posted. They are 3rd party warranties, but reputable companies where you can still use FORD OEM parts and dealerships. I listed some links above. I use to buy the warranties from the dealership as well, until my sister, a research genius, helped me find my dream Mustang, and an extended warranty to go with it. I put the links in my first post and decided to go with Lombardy personally, saving another $192 with the promo code. I chose them for a few reasons, they had the 0% financing for 6 or 12 months, but the main reason was another member in this forum, on this thread has used them for 7 years, (oldnjguy). His opinion and sharing his personal experience with the company, made my decision pretty easy. A reference from a long standing customer goes a long way in today's world
. Good Luck to You!!
