Extended Warrenty

The current extended warrenty on my 99 300M is due to expire in September.
Will have about 55,000 miles on it when it expires. I plan to keep it at
least another 3 to 5 years. Any recommendations or cautions regarding
purchase of new extended warrenty? Thanks for your input.

 

Has anything gone wrong with the 300M? If it has been reliable might be
better off putting the money in the bank.

 

55K is when Chryslers start having trouble. I had a head gasket fail on my
94 Concorde and my 86 LeBaron GTS Turbo at approximately 55K. The
airconditioner had to be replaced on the Concorde at 55K also, the
replacement AC lasted until 90K. There were a number of other things that
went wrong around about that time but I don't remember the details.

How much is the extended warranty and what's excluded from it? On the one
hand you've got to figure that they've calculate the price so that they
make money on it, on the other hand you can start to expect a few large
repair bills in the near future so if the price isn't outrageous you might
want to consider it.

 

Funny, none of my Chryslers seem to have gotten that memo. The newest
one foolishly went all the way to 150,000 miles before a major repair.
