[QUOTE="Star*, post: 447142, member: 4964"] KIA said the power train warranty ONLY stays 100K or life of the car WITH THE new original owner. ONLY. There is a very VERY limited and it is ALL subject to interpretation via dealer and KIA - 60K/ 5 year limited warranty still on the car for VERY LIMITED things (nothing included in power train) that leaves her 2 years or 30K more miles gratis from Kia. Does NOT include labor, or replacement vehicle while car is in the shop being repaired. THere IS (oh boy) a 12 year warranty on seat belts! (emphasized that) And a Five year warranty on paint! But not against chips dings etc. (again interpretation) dealer/KIA. SO.....our thought was.....for 1900.00.......should the engine go, the transmission go-----in the next six years? It's covered bumper to bumper. Rental coverage is covered. I understand that roadside assistance doubled is redundant - but it's included - so not much to do about that - but IF ---IF the engine were to go that is THOUSANDS...if the trany were to go - again? Thousands. Our concern was - HOW do they determine by their standards that it was mechanical and not owner.....I am advising her to get rid of it because I've never heard of ANY of this stuff paying off......EVER. Farcey land for anyone I've ever heard have it. If the car were to take a dive? Bust a rod, throw a piston - whatever -----there would be no recouping the loss. IT would be a complte loss. Know what I mean?? I am advising her to keep the GAP for sure. THAT seems a small price to pay and well worth it. I guess I'm just lookign for someone to speak up and say OH I had that COastal or Extra replacement engine/tranny insurance and BOY am I glad I did - it fixed everything-----for 2k....Know what I mean??
