Has anyone purchased an aftermarket extended warranty?

I was considering getting an extended warranty but unfortunately ran out of time to get the manufacturers. But I was told by my service advisor that I could get and aftermarket one (like DFS) and all services and repairs can still be done at the Fletcher Jones dealership. Anyone here bought one or know a lot about it...as far as what it covers and how much it costs?

Wohoo!! Fletcher Jones.......I'm in the market for aftermarket warranty also. I believe its around $3K for my car. Does anyone have any recent quotes from a dealership in California, or maybe FJ, since theyre the nearest one to me. Thanks....

If you plan to buy extended warranty I would strongly recommend you purchase it BEFORE the manufacturer's warranty expires. It's a lot cheaper!

Did you get the quote from an MB dealer? Is the price for another 3 years/ 50,000 miles?

Thanks

Does that mean that Penske covers the warranty or is it under a aftermarket company like DFS? And can you only take your vehicle back to Penske or is it good at any MBZ dealer?

CLK430 Designo
I just bought a 430 this weekend and got the 2-yr extended, bumper-to-bumper (NOT the drivetrain only), for $980. They originally offered it for $1280.

2000 CLK430 & 2000 Expedition on 22's
I just bought a 2000 CLK 430 and the dealership threw in an a 2 year bumper to bumper extended warranty for free. I believe it was around $1,250 retail. The car is also starmarked, so it has 3 years, up to 100,000 miles (45,000 left). But for $1250, I think 2 years of warrantee is well worth it.
