Post Factory Warranty
If there's a thread that's heavily discussed this, pls. provide the link.
If not, I seek advice on what to do. My CL550 ceases factory warranty in June.
What are the options and, finally, the BEST option for continuing a warranty coverage. I went naked on my S550. I spent a bundle, albeit over five yrs.
This CL has had some issues and I am surely thankful they were MB's nickel, not mine (directly, at least...). My dlr. shop rate is $150/hr. and parts are pricey, as all know.
Guidance/advice appreciated. Thank you.

I have USAA on my 2007 CL600. I have never had any issues with warranty claims. They just paid $9,752 for repairs last week at my local MB dealership. I had to have my turbos replaced ( had small leaks at the turbo seals), ABC pump replaced (pump was squeaking) & new lower tire rods.

I just got this eye opener....these are MB #'s, to the best of my understanding. Abbreviations are # of yrs. covered and # of miles covered.

Wowser. Look at the swing in cost between models. Tell me again why I went from S to CL? That more things can go wrong w/ a CL? Stunning.
