Hi all,

I have a 2015 Wagon Passat 118TSI and currently has reached the end of the manufacturer warranty. I have been approached by the dealar where I bought the car from and get the car serviced so far with, they offerred me an extended warranty for another 3 years that "matches" the manufacturer warranty. They said normal price is $2,400 but they are running promotion for $1,795.

I said "matches" because I belive it won't match 100% and obviously they cap each claim to $5,000. I requested a PDS and I also found some discrepancies in what the guy said in email to what the PDS says. And currently my car needs some repair (under manufacturer warranty) and I am not too happy with the service delivered by the dealer. In short, I am not comfortable to go with the dealer's warranty.

I rang VW asking about my option but because the warranty has ended early this month, VW said that they can't offer me anything. Which somewhat disappointing given that VW has never approached me toward the end of warranty period offering an extension to my warranty.

Anyway, right now I am in the market for an extended warranty for my VW. I heard people talking about Allianz and Swann but tried to Google it and could not find a link where I can buy them. I also come across RedBook. I don't know if there is anyone here who has experience with RedBook extended warranty.

I could use some feedback/advice. Thank you.
