JeffRow Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Hi Folks, We are looking for an extended warranty for my wife's 2013 Ford Edge. It currently has approx 70,000 miles on it. Can you recommend any extended warranties? The Ford ESP is not available for this vehicle because it has too many miles. I know there are a lot of them out there but I want to narrow down my choices to the "better" ones. I recieved a quote from Atlas Car Protection and I thought it was pretty expensive.

akirby Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 The only good ones are the Ford ESPs. The rest are iffy at best. Just take whatever you would have spent on that warranty and put it aside. You'll come out better in the long run anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macbwt Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 I agree set the money aside and go from there. I have an extended warranty and those folks work extremely hard not to have to pay anything. Then it takes forever for them to make a decision when the time comes to actually pay along with verifications, tests, etc etc etc. The only good ones are the Ford ESPs. The rest are iffy at best. Just take whatever you would have spent on that warranty and put it aside. You'll come out better in the long run anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOEHIO Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 My sister-in-law (wife's sister) had a extended warranty with a company that was a "outsider" and to put it bluntly, they covered SHIT. First occurance was the throttle body, was not covered, but if it was a Ford Premium Care, it would have been covered. She had another issue with a repair that wasn't covered. Two repairs cost her about $2,100, plus the cost of $ 1,300 for the warranty, blown out the window. Stay away from outsiders, unless it lists everything in writing what is covered. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma-2 Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 When I bought my mkx, I got the PremiumCare (covers over 1000 items) and my car had 84k on it. Did you check the Ford website? http://owner.ford.com/servlet/ContentServer?pagename=Owner/Page/ESPWizardStep1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JinElmo Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 Strange.... I check my 2012 Edge with 55000 mi., and it says not eligible for ANY of the coverages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
