Bought 2014 Prius 3 used from lexus

Wouldn't do it. I would be surprised if anything at all broke on a 2014 in 2 years. That reliability is probably why you're looking at a Toyota in the first place!

 

congrats! it's strictly a personal decision, but i wouldn't waste my money.

 

you don't have to buy a warranty to extend until the day before the factory warranty runs out. So that gives you about a year to decide. But for now? Don't worry about it.

 

Don't buy it. That's way too expensive for 2 years.

You can buy an actual extended warranty from many Toyota dealers, for around that same price you'd be able to get around 4-5 years.

Go on rav4world.com and do a search, you'll find the contact info there.

Aha. You didn't mention it had 40K in just two years. Yes, the traction pack, inverter, and other hybrid component it's 100,000 miles. In carb States - it's a hundred fifty thousand miles & 8yrs iirc.

Ok, I'll try and get you a link.

the warranty is in the warranty manual you should get with the car. 1/12 on everything, 3/36 on the drivetrain, 5/60 on emissions, and 8/100 or 10/150 on the hybrid components.

if you will sleep better with a 2 year warranty, purchase it. you can't buy peace of mind.

I've heard the markup / profit on these things is criminal. Don't remember where I read that..

I think some or all also have exclusions that disappoint.

When I bought my Prius, I looked into the same question here on PC.com. Universally, every thread I could find was filled with advice to avoid these things. For those who actually examine it, it really seemed like common knowledge. So I assume it is.

Consumer Reports says extended warranty is overpriced. They say to never do it.

My guess is that the fundamentals on extended warranties are terrible, a few junkers driving up the cost for everyone. Either that or the markets not competitive. Something. Whatever the case, they're known to be terrible deals.

That said, IIRC, I think there's a thread here on PC pointing to some dealer's salesman who gives a lower price than most on EW's.

 

My Gen 3 2012 got it with 14,000 it had 107,000 never had an issues. I trade it in June 2016 for a Gen 4 . Prius are awesome. I told them no back then.
