New member and quick question for the group...
We got a CPO 2015 CX-9 GT, FWD in October of 2016. I felt like I got us a good price on the car and was pleased with the buying experience, except I was talked into the extended warranty when we closed. I wasn't aware that warranties could be negotiated or even purchased later and therefore took what was offered 8 year, 100k "platinum" with 100 deductible for $2300. This does offer some piece of mind, but I am thinking about cancelling the warranty. By my calculations I would get back a prorated $1900 and I can chalk up the lost $400 to a learning experience.
We have CPO warranty through 7/2019 and Powertrain through 7/2022. The extended would go through 1/2023. The main issue I see with CX-9s is the transfercase for the AWDs which is not an issue for us. Talked to the dealer and they tried to guilt me into keeping it because of the likelihood of items failing outside of warranty (sensors, electronics, etc). I'm not so sure I buy that.
What do my fellow owners think? You think 3.5 years of extended warranty is worth the $1900?
Thanks!
