Friends: 0 | I know all this has been covered but I am terrible at deciphering "the language". Does the extended warranty cover or not cover the MFD? What about other expensive items? I am assuming the hybrid batteries are covered at least until 100,000 miles. Batteries are listed under exclusions but am I correct this is just he regular battery Service plug is also listed under exclusions. What is it? I need to make up my mind by Monday |

Friends: 0 | I just had to replace the MFD on my 04 Prius. I have the Platinum Ext. Warranty and everything was covered. If I didn't have the EW, it would've been an approximately $700 (remanufactured MFD) repair. I paid $685 (7/75K) for the EW, so I'm ahead. Last edited by Mauison; 01-13-2008 at 03:22 AM. |

Friends: 6 | MFD failures from a probable manufacturing defect in the 2004 and early 2005 models are well-documented. See this for more. |

While the amount is good, you can get the warranty here an PriusChat for somewhat less. | |

Friends: 0 | I just bought my Prius on 1/24/08 for $1000.00 over invoice so the dealer decided to stick it to me on the Platinum EW and I didn't know any better so I signed for $1485.00 (that was before I found out about this site). I posted about it on priusonline and richard schumacher posted about the link here at priuschat. I joined here and used the link for a quote and it was $990.00 so I called my dealer and told him I wanted to cancel the warranty since I could get it for less (you have 30 days for 100% cancellation). The dealer has decided to match the $990.00 and redo the contract, I just have to go in and pick up my refund check and sign the new contract. Important note: I didn't tell the dealer WHERE I could get the other EW from, just that it was from a dealer. If a lot of dealers find out where this is coming from, they will whine to toyota and have it stopped.

Friends: 0 | I don't think Toyota as a company will get involved in this EW thing. All dealers get the same base price. It all depends on how much profit they plan to make from you. I am sure Troy is not losing money sell you EW at $990! It just means your dealer was planning to make too much! I just bought a Mazda CX-9. The financial guy tried (of course) to sell me EW for $2100 (7yr/100K). I told him I got my Prius EW for $990 (and he knows Prius is complicated). He couldn't believe it. Naturally, he knew I have "my sources", so he stopped trying to sell me ANYTHING. It saved me a lot of effort of saying "No!".
