Hello all, recently purchased 2014 E350 coupe with 20K miles. Dealer offering warranty (Hendrick Autoguard Gold) which covers following for around ~3k for next 3 years or 36K miles. Is it worth? what issues we usually get on these w212 E class? I appreciate inputs here. Thanks

At the end of the day it's your call since it's a gamble either way. I'm going to assume you own it with clear title. That could change the calculus since I refuse to have a payment and repair costs at the same time. Personally I'd do a thorough service just based on age and roll the dice, but I enjoy the work... The deal breaker for me would be this only gets you to 56k miles, which is shortly before costly repairs start showing up. I'm curious to know what you decide....GL!

You know that’s even though there are only 20k miles, the tires should be replaced. Tires over 7 years could be starting to rot.

Let me get you a quote and example contract for a Complete Manufacturers Extension policy from Freedom Warranty, you'd have more coverage, longer terms, further distance, and covered for $275 and hour. If for nothing else, a bargaining chip to try to get the dealer lower on their price. Text or Call me at (602) 909-9216 or you can send me an email at tgibson@highline-autos.comOriginally Posted by EB_E350

Did you mean $275 deductible? What does " and hour " mean ? Hourly rates apply? What about diagnosis time is that covered?
To OP, make sure it covers the well known oil gallery, cam tensioners failure and resulting bottom end failure on the 3.5L V6 2012-2014.
Also, sway bar endlinks, transmission mounts, engine mounts, head unit and Comand system failures

No, $100 deductible, you'd be covered for hourly rate up to $275 an hour which is more than enough for any Mercedes dealer hourly repair rate. Originally Posted by WRC-LVR

Thanks all for inputs. After doing my research and talking to folks decided to cancel the warranty keep the 3K with me to cover if anything goes bad in next 2-3 years. fingers crossed.
