Volvo Warranty
I have just taken out a further years Volvo warranty, (£445) my XC90 will be 3 years old in june, I wanted a further 2 years as I plan on keeping this car for 5 years but they do not offer a 2 year plan but said before this one expires I will be offered a further years warranty.
I already have the 5 years service plan purchased for £500 when new, which was a no brainer. Peace of mind now. For now at least.

Unless it's just changed, they do offer a two-year plan (I took one out at the beginning of March - like you, I plan to keep my car for 5 years) - it's just that you can't get it via the website for some reason. I had to buy it through my dealer. But it wasn't any cheaper than two one-year extensions (it just avoids any potential increase in the cost in 12 months time).

Yes it was to avoid increase in price I wanted the two years. I did mine over the phone instead of the website because the website only offered one year but when I asked for two years they told me they only did one year and will offer another year as this is due to run out, probably to get more money out of me as price will most likely have risen and car older too.

On a nine year old car. Has it many exclusion clauses? It has probably cost something approaching £3500 to have a warranty from the end of the third year to the end of the ninth, so has it paid out anything so far?

Are the extended warranties exactly the same cover as the factory warranties? I thought they were provided by a third party company??? Not Volvo. That’s right isn’t it?
Can you still get everything done no questions asked at a main dealer????

You're right - it's administered by Car Care Plan although it seems to be Volvo-specific Ts and Cs. Not had to claim anything so no idea how well it works - apart from the usual consumable exclusions, the only notable one that jumped out at me was 'hoses' are excluded. But most other stuff seems to be covered (touch wood...)

There are a few clauses and exceptions mainly fair wear and tear and consumable items and car must be maintained and serviced correctly but all major components and electrical item are covered, if any warranty work is required the dealer contacts the volvo warranty admin to authorise the work and they pay the dealer direct. The same as original warranty work. Cover is upto the full value of the vehicle when new, for all parts and labour, unlimited number of claims, recovery, accommodation and replacement vehicle costs and continental cover, and consequential damage cover to help cover costs on non covered items.

Bit concerning. Maybe its common I don't know, never had an extended warranty before, has anyone else seen hoses excluded in a extended warranty? :wq
