Many of our members are getting swindled by their local dealers over the price of the Toyota Extended Service Contract (Extended Warranty in layman's terms) so I decided to do something about it.

PriusChat is proud to announce that for a price of $1055, you can purchase the Toyota Extra Care Platinum warranty which will cover your car for a period of 7 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first.

The best part is this warranty has a $0 deductible. It also comes with Substitute Transportation coverage at $50/day for a max of 5 days per occurrence, free towing to the closest authorized repair facility, travel protection if the incident occurs more than 150 miles from your home and includes costs of meals and lodging reimbursed up to $100 per day for a maximum of five days over the life of the agreement, and transferability to another owner of your car for a fee of $50.

How much does it cost?
As stated previously, this great plan is available for $1055, almost $800 off the MSRP price of $1850

What does it cover?
You can see a full list of what is covered over on Toyota Financial Services website. It breaks down what is covered by each level of warranty coverage.

Is the Navigation/MFD covered?
* Yes - request a full list of covered and excluded items from our warranty rep if you would like to take a look at them.

I already bought my car, does that mean I can't get the Extended Service Contract?
*Nope, you can buy it as long as you are within the original warranty period - 3 years, 36k miles.

*Bought your car used? You are eligible for other service contracts

A quick note from PriusChat concerning using our offer as a way to "pricematch" with your dealer. Basically, please refrain from doing so. Telling your dealer about this offer could lead to higher prices in the very near future or completely pulling the deal from this site. Please read the message from Troy, our PriusChat Warranty Rep, below:

"...If anyone feels that they simply must give their dealer the chance to price match, at the very least, give us the courtesy of keeping us anonymous so you don't ruin it for everyone. Just tell them you have gotten a better price at another dealer, and leave it at that. Don't give them a copy of this thread or one of my emails with all the info they need to go crying to their factory reps about how much money they lost because of us."

I am picking up my new Prius on 7/14/04. I am sure that they will offer to sell me an Extended Warranty. What is the price that I should not go over if they do indeed offer?

There are many places that offer it for $1035 or less (a couple at $980). I don't know what kind of deal Danny will be offering, but I certainly would not pay more than the $1035 mark.

Currently the lowest I've been able to find has been $985. I hope that the total will be at or near that price.

BTW, for those wondering whether or not to buy the Extended Warranty:

1)You have 3yrs/36k miles to buy and can buy from ANY dealer, so don't let your dealer pressure you.

2)During standard warranty period there are only 2 added benefits you get from having the Extended Warranty (of course after the warranty runs out on your Prius is when the Ext. Warranty becomes the real benefit).

a)Transportation assistance: if your vehicle has warranteeable repairs that'll take more than a day to complete or get parts in, the new car warranty just says that the dealership has to provide transportation assistance (doesn't say what kind, so it could just be a courtesy van, or a loaner, or they could pay for a rental...). The Toyota Extra Care provides a set dollar amount ($50/day) with a limit on how many days (5 per repair visit).

Dislocation benefit: should your car need repairs for more than one day, while you're more than 150 miles from your home, the Toyota Extra Care provides $100/day for food/lodging, up to 5 days over the lifetime of the Toyota Extra Care agreement. I haven't seen this offered in the basic bumper to bumper new car warranty.

For people who canceled their warranty with a dealer, how long did it take to get a check or see the amount credited to the lein holder (Toyota, in my case)? I filled out the papers on June 12.

Right now I am only looking at the 7 year, 100k $0 deductible service contract - if you would like pricing on other plans please let me know.

At my current rate I'll be averaging around 20,000 miles per year, so I'd want 6 years/100,000 miles. I got a quote for somewhere around $860 but couldn't pull it off this year due to my high car taxes.

See what kind of price you can get on that...

On the Yahoo boards there were reports of $850 for 7/100/0 - that seems to be the low number. I bought my car out of state and divorced my dealer, but he nevertheless said he'd at least come close to whatever I find when the time came.

I've got 24k miles to go before needing it... and can't think of a reason to buy prematurely. And, at 22k/year it'll take some calculation to figure out what makes sense.

So, I purchased my classic used a few months back. The car is at 45K+ miles. Can I get an extended warranty? Is it worth it?

Thanks for the advice.

Sorry bckeller. The Warrantee would have needed to be purchased before the car turned over 36K.
