Is the Used Car 5 year Extended "AHG" Warranty worth it?

[wes_932]

Hi

I recently purchased a 2009 G6E TURBO with 50000km's from an AHG ford dealer. They (being the chick with watermelons for breasts) has been pressuring me to get this extended warranty offered by AHG.

The conditions are:

- 5 years cover or 175'000 km's (which ever comes first)

- Each claim made is allowed up to a maximum of $2000, and an unlimited number of claims are allowed over the 5 year period

- A very extensive coverage is "apparent" at this point

- I am required to service the car with them every 6 months or 10'000km's (at a cost of $289 ~ supposedly because they use super special synthetic oil --> which is a load of BS because no matter where I had my car serviced I would demand the use of the best possible oil no matter what the cost is).

- They are trying to charge me $2750

I have heard from a few people that it is not worth it, one guy in particular needed a gearbox rebuild, of which he was quoted 6K, turns out he did it himself for a cost of $1200.

Anyone advice at all would be appreciated, and I am new to the forum so I hope I posted in an acceptable place.

Cheers,

Wes
