GM Extended Warranty - should I?

5678 Views 10 Replies 10 Participants Last post by  bballr4567
Hey guys, my wife and I just purchased our new 2009 Malibu 1LT. The dealer of course offered an extended warranty on the bumper to bumper coverage for about $900.

Now in the past, I have always figured those warranties were worth nothing because the dealer wouldn't honor anything.

What do you guys think? I bought this car based on it's reputation, safety and features (OnStar, etc.). I'd like the peace of mind but do you think the factory upgrade in warranty is worth the cost?

Thanks for any opinions/experiences.

you can always get it once your 3 year 36 is up--remember that if you purchase it now--the first 3 years are useless because you already have a warranty--
Good point, I'm pretty sure I'll purchase the extended warranty...new cars are pretty expensive to repair, my tranny went on my 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix GXP under warranty and the repair cost was over $3,500.
