Anybody using Route66 aftermarket warranty?

Would you recommend them or should I stay away from them?

Is it easy to claim from them or do they basically try to weasel out of covering something with fine prints etc.?

They have an exclusionary "Easy Street" package that basically lists what they DO NOT cover which is better than the ones that lists only what is covered.

My credit union is offering it to me.

Thanks.

I use Route 66. Great company, no deductible. Just no they DO NOT COVER navigation radios or diagnostic fees. I highly recommend although they don't cover high end vehicles such as my s500. They cover the E class though. Pricing is great.

My credit union is quoting a Route 66 extended warranty for my E55 (68k miles) for $1,388 for 3 yr/36k miles from now... however, they are telling me the maximum payout for the entire life of the warranty is only $3,000.

Does that seem correct?

I have never heard of a maximum payout as such. This sounds incorrect. I just had my credit union run a 2005 E55 with 68k miles just to see what would happen and they had a 4year 48k mile factory warranty available for $2350(Easy Street)
They didnt mention a maximum payout. I would check with route 66 directly.
