Hello again all,
I have done a search of the forums and Google searches, but have not found any information in regard to length of term and costs for extended warranties offered by BMW on the IX50.
I believe the standard warranty is 4 year, 50,000 miles, but since I have a habit of keeping my vehicles for at least 7 years and 100,000 miles (sometimes more) and given that this will be a vehicle I probably cannot wrench on myself especially on the power train and compute systems, it seems prudent (at least to me) to get an extended warranty when I take delivery of my IX50 in July. This being my first BMW, I understand you can possible (?) extended the warranty during the first 4 years and 50,000 miles, please correct me here if I am mistaken.
The question being, is it best to purchase the extended warranty up front, or wait a couple of years and see how the vehicle performs from reliability standpoint? That way if the car is simply a dud (I have had a couple of those in my life) I don’t waste the funds with purchasing a warranty up front that I might not use.
Thanks in advance for your wisdom and guidance.
