vehicle warranty rant!

[LPfishnTIM]

so ticked right now! extended vehicle warranties are a load of crap! just paid $98 to a well known ford dealership for a them to tell me that a warranty company won't pay for a faulty part until it 100% fails, which would mean that it would cause more damage then if it was replaced at first signs of failure! so now I have to get in touch with the warranty company myself and plead with them to buy me a part, which they already know about because I brought my vehicle into a service department. bad part is it would of been cheaper for me to buy the part and replace it myself, which would take 30 minutes of my time and would of cost me $81.91,
next rant when a service department tells you they drove your truck for 30 minutes and couldn't reproduce the braking problem I was having, but I could drive less then 2 miles to my apartment and tell I was having the same problem that I drove into the dealership with this morning. Then I after the second time I drive there which was at 5pm and they tell me the warranty company still won't pay for a sticking caliber, it has to be totally locked out for them to change it, which would mean that it would mess up my brake pads and rotor which would cost me over $350 to fix because the warranty company doesn't pay for brakes and rotors! dang I pissed! what I think it comes down to is the warranty company sucks and the dealership doesn't want to deal with them because they rather the money coming out of my pocket because it goes into there bank account faster!

3rd rant I paid $1200 for this stupid extended warranty, it has a $50 deductible and it is about to expire in 600 miles. Any way I see it, I'm out the money to repair my vehicle myself and not get the great "warranty" that I paid for and I was told by the dealer which is out of town that it would cover anything for 2 yrs 24K miles. its the last time I buy an extended warranty! the money paid for it would be better put aside for repairs!
