People should try to wave that $2000 rebate to get a better price from the getgoNot to put a damper on FCPP or extended warranties but a couple of warnings related to me from a recently retired GM service manager regarding FCPP. If you are counting on the rebate at the end if you do not use the warranty, be cautious throughout the years. Any use of the roadside assistance that the plan comes with will negate your rebate. Also, if you have a service problem, the first thing they ask is "is this under warranty". The FCPP plan, no matter how many years the plan is, begins the day you bought the car, not after the GM warranty runs out. If you say yes, they will diagnose the problem which may result in a $20.00 warranty fix but that also negates your rebate. Lastly, put the expiry date in your smart phone calendar or somewhere to remind you when the warranty runs out. They will not just just send you a rebate or remind you. You have 60 days to contact them and submit a claim or no rebate.
Agree. But a better price from the get-go is easy. There's a huge markup on the rates and it doesn't take much negotiation to to get $800 to $1000 off the initial quoted price. Once you get that far, then drop the no rebate on them and see if you can save some more. I went from $3200 to $2500 in a matter of minutes and still walked.People should try to wave that $2000 rebate to get a better price from the getgo
I received great support from Bruce at Laplante in Hawksbury, Ontario. Highly recommend him.
I tried calling my wife my flunkie ....... didn’t go over well.....l will get one of my flunkies to take a run at him we will see
That’s exactly what I did, 10 minutes with no BS and saved 2000$the GM extended warranty is 100% markup so do the math really not hard, you can buy it from any GM dealer it doesn't matter once you decide which plan you want you can call the business manager and ask them for a price instead of making $2,000 profit the guy is on the phone with you for 10 minutes and he makes $500 and you save $1,500. Make sure when they show you the pricing it's the pricing from GM not an dealership document. all you need is the serial number of your car and you are good to go.
So what was the final price?That’s exactly what I did, 10 minutes with no BS and saved 2000$
2491$ +tax, 84 month- 80km, EPP, 100$ deductible. I am well aware of the potential worthlessness of the extended warranties, but for 2500$ I had to go for it.So what was the final price?
That's pretty much what I paid. I also don't regret it. My sister has a 3 yr old Grand Caravan (bought new in 2017) with 125,000kms and the transmission and torque converter just crapped out. Needs $4000 or more in repairs. It's past the basic Chrysler warranty so not covered. Her dealer sold her a 5 yr (from new) 100,000km extended "bumper to bumper" warranty, which basically extended the 3/60 to 5/100. Unfortunately, when she bought the car she took her 6 yr daughter who was quite a handful, so my sister agreed to whatever, and they hosed her.2491$ +tax, 84 month- 80km, EPP, 100$ deductible.

I found a few on dealership web sites, but no PDF of the actual brochure.
All I found are either old or incomplete.
