Best Deal on ELW (Extended Limited Warranty)

Where or does anyone would perhaps to know where can I get a good price or cheapest on Extended Limited Warranty. My 4 years are almost up and I was curious to purchase extended warranty for the X167 450 GLS. Can I purchase from any dealership and have it done by the phone? I'm in New Jersey.

Following this since I need to buy two: one for me, one for my mom's 2022 S580.

Again, check with @Highline-Autos.com . They sell both (or used to) Freedom Warranty and Fidelity Platinum. Fidelity has an excellent reputation and I have them for my daughter’s car. I know nothing about Freedom. The other thing to do is to check with your local dealer or shop and see if they recommend a company. While a Mercedes dealer probably won’t “recommend” a third party plan, the service manager may tell you who the easiest company is to work with.

Same with factory Service Reps. They start making dealers jump through hoops if the shop repeatedly misleads.

Impressive tires, though - 81,000 miles on them with tread remaining. According to the Bozo.

These aftermarket warranty companies do send adjusters out though. It's similar to a collision claim. Especially on a big ticket item. It happened to me on a Ram 1500. They sent someone out when basically my entire front end went. It was a Ram factory extended warranty, luckily I was covered even with the Mopar 2" lift I had. What saved me was that I had a Ram dealer install the Mopar lift. Was crazy when I picked it up, the SA showed me the invoice was over 12K. He said your lucky you had this or it would have been out of pocket. I said I would have traded it in. 2020 Ram 1500. Gotta say it was a great truck though. Mechanic said the lift did it, changes all the angles even though it was factory.

Not in my case. The warranty company rep IMMEDIATELY tried to deny the repair because i had winter tires on the car. The SL comes with summer run-flats from the factory, but the Operator’s Manual specifies the size for the winter tires. My malfunction was with the passenger seat motor, which had nothing to do with the tires on the car, and Endurance (same company as in the video) tried everything to deny coverage. They eventually paid after four weeks. The seat repair was about $4000. The service manager said it would have been easier to replace a failed transmission. This was at a Mercedes dealership.
