Road Hazzard Warranty
After 1300 miles I got a nail in the rear tire. This is after I refused the $1200 tire warranty from the dealer. I was bummed out that I did not take it, especially after finding out the rear tire was $500 to replace. The good news in this is I paid a total of $750 for the tire and road hazard warranty for all 4 tires. The tire dealer charges $60/tire for full tire warranty- tire is completely replaced, not pro-rated coverage as with the dealer. This shows how much the dealer marks up these warranties.
