Ron P Report post Posted October 9, 2009 Just picked up my FFH on Wednesday, and I could use some advice regarding the Extended Service and Maintenance plans. I'd like to buy both, and have gone to the various websites noted on this forum for selling them at large discounts. When I mentioned the competing prices to my dealer to see if he'd care to match them, he said that Ford has had problems with these dealers and their sales practices and that the warranties might not be completely legit. Of course I don't know if this is true or just dealer claims so that he can make the sale. Anyway, he came down to a few hundred dollars more than the websites on each plan. Does anyone have any experience with these discounted dealerships and their plans? Are they totally legit, or are they something Ford is going to somehow mess with and screw up my coverage? Thanks in advance for your help. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wstcoaster07 Report post Posted October 9, 2009 When I told my dealer about the price I was offered from buy-ford-warranty they said it was only 100.00 below what they were allowed to sell it for (so extra 100 and it could be finance with the car, otherwise you have to pay it online in full one time). If your dealer told you it was a couple hundred lower than he was offering to what he was willing to go down to, not what he was allowed to go down to. My dealer showed me the ford document with their plans that listed their lowest price they could offer the customer. She said it could have been different online possibly because the restrictions only applied to in store sales... who knows. I opted for the 7yr/100k/$100 deductible for 1080.00 + same day rental option which was an additional 90(i think) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks in advance for your help. I call total B.S. on your dealer. It is Ford ESP. If you buy the Ford ESP and it show in the Oasis system as in effect, then you have it. Buy it from the least expensive place you can find it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The website will save me quite a bit over the dealer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
