Apparently, a dealer could sell your car without your consent when you take it in for repair

NEVER buy any add-on warranty, and certainly not from a dealer…

Sorry dealers, you have EARNED your reputation as un-trustworthy!

I find that questionable. Bought the warranty before the lease on my 2017 rav4 was up. $1400. Full factory warranty good till 2027. Have not had the need to test it. Will let you know if I do.

IMO the dealer is the right place to buy an extended warranty. When we bought our 2003 Olds Silhouette we got a 60/60 extended warranty as part of the inducement. GM had just announced that they were phasing out Oldsmobile. Turns out it was useful. The transmission failed at about 56,000 miles and we got a new one for free. The service advisor was apologetic and sympathetic to our plight. His mood brightened when he saw that we had the warranty.
