2009 Toyota Yaris Extended Warranty Packages?

[auxmike]

I paid $659 for 7/75,000 Platinum with no deductable. Glad I did. Who knows what troubles could crop up with things like drive by wire throttle and electric steering?
My Mom's '06 Corolla's water pump started leaking like 3 months ago. The car only had 16k on the clock!It was fixed for FREE under the extended warr.
I'm glad I bought it, you never know...

At 16k it was fixed under the original warranty, which is standard on the car.

I agree with Kal-el, if it doesn't break by 36k, there's a very slim chance of it breaking between 36 and 72k. I've had zero warranty work done, and nothing besides maintenance items and I'm at 80k. The 700 dollars you paid for the extra warranty goes a long way to fixing a yaris. I'll most likely be well into the 200k mile range before I spend 700 outside of wear and tear items.

3years/36k Car's 3 years were up when it happened

the people who sell those warranties know that the biggest issues will, as a rule, occur beyond even those extended warranties.

a complete waste of money, IMO. adding to a car payment for an extended warranty seems crazy to me.

Hyundai or Kia, id say sure that 100 k worth of warranty may come in handy. Yaris, no.
