Toyota extended warranty plan purchase

take a look above in this thread. Jerry got me a 10 year, 125k, Toyota warranty for 1795 for my 23 Tacoma in late March ‘23

 

yes, you can get the extended warranty from any Toyota dealership. Yes every Toyota dealership will honor the warranty because it’s a Toyota warranty.

 

FWIW- when I started this thread I bought the 7yr/125k for $1250.
Probably going to trade my 23 pro soon.
They will refund me $956.

 

It's all part of the weird world of buying a car through a 3rd party like a dealer. Dealers set their prices for vehicles, repairs, products, etc. Some in competitive markets aim low for getting buyers in, others in a captive market raise prices because they are the only shop in town. It's all the same product though and the warranty itself is through Toyota, not the dealer. It's assigned to the VIN.

The warranty I paid something like 1,800 to Jerry was quoted in the 4-5k range at my local dealer when I bought the truck. They want to sell you on fear and make you think it all needs to be bought now to work. Think of it as nothing more than a profit center.

 

Do the same conditions apply to a maintenance program (note, I was quoted 6/55K mi = $795) as do to a VSA?? IOW can I buy it cheaper elsewhere and do dealerships honor it?

 

Waste of money! I got scammed into buying one (Zurich) on my 2016 (used) and they didn't cover shit. I've regretted it ever since.

 

How did you get scammed?

 

Finance guy came up with all these "doom and gloom" scenarios until I broke down. I know it's my own dumass fault.

 

but how is it a scam?

 

My VSA warranty booklet came in the mail today.
This was through Jerry Johnson. If you want a warranty, get with him.
