(More) I learned the hard way about warranties and I hope my experience will help future buyers by learning from my mistake. In Nov of ?04, I purchased a ?02 Audi from Audi of Albuquerque. The original factory date of the car was Feb ?02 which meant that the car was still under factory warranty until Feb ?06. When I was finalizing the sale, the finance mgr promoted the idea of an extended warranty. I am wary of extended warranties and had him explain the warranty to me in detail. He told me it would kick in the day I bought the car and last for 6 years ending in Nov of ?10. The warranty they sold me, at a cost of a little over $2700, actually started from the factory date of the car (Feb ?02) and went for 6 years from that date (i.e., Feb ?08). The finance mgr. deceived me by selling me a 6-year ?new car? warranty that lasted only 2 years past the factory warranty. Not many people would spend that kind of money on a 2 year warranty. I believe they knew this which is why they misled me.  (Hide)
