I just used my Fidelity on two items:

Suspension strut
Cargo hatch strut

$3600 in work at the dealership so it's already paid off the cost of the warranty. I have seven years left with Fidelity. They did send an inspector but my dealer said it was pretty standard.

Just by chance, my 12v battery was testing low/bad (5yrs old) and the dealer had a promotion to replace it with free labor for only $300. That seemed well worth it considering it lives under the driver's seat and probably takes at least an hour to replace. So I'm happy about that coincidence.

This car only gets driven once a week now as an extra car which I'll keep until the fidelity warranty ends, or I get bored of it.

Suspension error. It wasn't consistent but I got this error twice. After the second time, I took it to the dealer.
