Extended Warranty Prices Re-visited

I know this was covered before but the last post I could find is over a year old.
I want to get the 7/100 extended warranty for my 2013 ML350 but every dealer in the area wants over 5K for it. Needless to say I am looking for a better deal.
Anyone know of any?
Thanks.

I assume you know what you want - since 7/100 is sortof a "bump" - 7/125 is just $1000 more more or less, and 7/75 is close to $1500 cheaper

1) If ELW is purchased later than 30 days from purchase date - then the MB 15% surcharge kicks int - so MSRP + surcharge is $5,047.

2) If you want to get this out of the way Friday - shoot me a PM before 4PM your time - and I'll ask one of my F&I guys to get free and wrap this up with you.

OR/WA MB dealers have been noted to be challenging on this - for July - a new record peak unit selling month - my F&I guys will be open minded/flexible to help bring their #'s up on their side too. More of our customers tend to hold less - majority under/max 4 yrs - so their ELW numbers are always challenging - your 7/whatever can help my F&I guys fluff their July ELW number up a bit..

2013 ML 350
I recently purchased a 2013 ML 350 and got it last week. I bought a 5/75 ELW and looks like I paid significantly higher than the MSRP ($3790).


I understand that I could return the warranty to get a full refund but I am lost on how to buy it again before the surcharge period begins. I called a couple of dealers and they mentioned they don't price shop (I am located in the state of Washington).




fabbrisd1 - you seem to have some good info on getting good deals on ELW. Any pointers here please?

Do you mean you pay more than $3790 to extend your warranty for one additional year and 25K miles? If it is, you really should cancel it and get your money back.

Check out this thread and there are some MB dealers offer good discount on extended warranty. Btw, it doesn't matter which Mercedes dealers you buy MB backed extended warranty from. You can take it to any mercedes dealer to get the car repair.

Sorry sorry. I bought 7/75 ELW for $3790. Apologize for my typo. I still think I overpaid for it as compared to what everyone else is mentioning on this thread

Just called the dealers for quotes from the thread that I recommended two posts up. Good luck.

Btw, 75K for 7 years is not much if you drive normal.

This is the deal my Dealer offered me for an Extended Warranty and at the time of purchase for MY14 on order he's offering a 15% discount. I drive less than 10K miles a year, so thinking about the 7/75,000.

Wow. This is almost a $1000 less than what I paid. Is it normal for people to shop around for ELW? Is it possible to buy an extended warranty from dealerships outside of my state?

I am purchasing a brand new factory built to order MY14 ML350. Do you all think I should purchase an extended warranty?

What about the prepaid maintenance packages?
