Extended Warranties?

[Vapor Blue GT]

I would suggest you call some dealers in your area and confirm that. I’m afraid of what responses you might get. Dealers will tell you one thing but not everything is true.

I will do that. Thank you

I keep seeing people say the price of a Ford ESP is the same in 3 years as it is when the car is new, except for possible small annual increases to the plan. However, it appears to me that the price goes up if the car is older than a year. For example if you buy a 2022 new now and have a 2 year old 2022, it appears you will pay more for the second if you buy the ESP for both right now. Is that incorrect?

Damn, I missed that too. Florida sucks that way. @DCS try working a deal with your dealer if they try and push this on you. Get quotes from all of the online dealers (use another state, of course) And use them to make a deal.

I'd give Granger a call (or email) anyway. I'm in CA and there are still options that may be available to you.

Given all the electronics in new cars these days, I am considering an extended warranty. I know Ford offers one. To be prepared with a competitive policy, I checked with Endurance on their "Supreme" policy - $100.00 deductible, 8 years (actually 5 after the standard warranty) or 101K miles. Believe me, it is "Supremely" priced! I don't even have a VIN yet, so the quote I was given was probably low.
What is the experience of the Mustang GT crowd?

When I bought my previous Mustang in 2007, I got the extended warranty. Eventually, I realized that it is largely useless. Under my "extended warranty", I still had to pay for every single repair. You need to read carefully what it covers and what it doesn't. In the end, once my "extended warranty" was up, I started going to a regular corner repair shop and it was a much more enjoyable experience than going to Ford.

Currently, Ford offers four types of ESP, from Base (84 items) to Premium (1000+ items, with more options still).

At the time you had yours, which did you have? Level of coverage? Maybe the plans have changed since.

Unfortunately I do not remember what it was exactly.

That's cool. The Ford site above will help you decide if it is worthwhile.

If you do plan to purchase, Granger Ford sells to NY and offers a Ford plan for $50 over cost. The following site will allow you to shop pricing (coverage, length of time/mileage) without purchasing or signing up for anything.

Welcome to the Forum BTW. .

He said he bought an "extended warranty" not an ESP. Bet it was a crappy 3rd party one.

This is my second Ford vehicle. My first one was a 2017 F-150 with the 3.5 Ecoboost. Had the Ford ESP and it came in handy. Had the cam phaser replacement done right after the 60,000 mile mark. Only had to pay $100 deductible to have it fixed. Now granted, I'm pretty sure the cost for the warranty at the time of purchase was probably close to the initial cost of the cam phaser replacement. But you just never know. I plan to keep the Mustang past the 5 year / 60,000 mile mark, so I went ahead and got the Ford ESP, granted, the price for it has gone up a good bit, but I have the 8 year / 100,000 mile coverage now. In my mind, worth it, especially with all the tech that comes on these vehicles nowadays.

I am interested in the ESP as well.
