These are finally available through Alfa Romeo Canada from dealerships.
So far, I’ve only seen a comprehensive one for 5 and 7 years (so, 1 and 3 years past the OEM one) and 115 and 165(I think) thousand Km. Waiting to hear back if there is a powertrain only alternative and if so then what price.
Please post here what prices and coverage you get, if you are shopping for these.
I got 7 years - 115 000km. Dealer was charging 5995$... finally i paid 3995$. It’s suppose to be the only program warranty in Canada that is available. That’s what they told me.
If my first transmission issue happened at 55K, this warranty should just cover me for the next failure at 110K. Although the dealer also said the new hydraulic actuator is an improved part. Probably improved by 5001 kms, with my luck.
Got mine today. Car was put on the road August 2015 so I’m good till August 2022. Given my car has done just over 4000 km (2500mi) in 3 1/2 years, I’ll never get to those high miles. I put on about 3-5000 km a year. So I estimate in 2022 it’ll be somewhere around 25000 km or 15000 mi.
Just priced out some extended warranty.
7 yr 115,000 Powertrain $3150
7 yr 115,000 Complete mechanical $4150
Good price?
Any opinions? What did you buy and pay?
Thanks guys!
Others commenting, keep in mind this is Canadian Dollars.
You can do a little better. :wink2:
I was asked not to share what I paid, and I did buy for two cars at once (one of each of the options you list), but there’s a bit more in there for you if you ask.
One dealership told me “this is what Alfa charges and we can’t do anything about the price”. That’s despite my having bought my LE from them. No Sale! Another dealership (with whom I do a fair bit of business, including my fleet at work with their sister Dodge/RAM store, which no doubt worked in my favour) was more willing to move slightly on price. Thank you and here’s my money. :smile2:
I bought my Wrangler second hand in Belgium with an extended European Warranty. Car has a water ingress problem and I'm now claiming that on the extended warranty in Portugal. So far so good. They checked on the system, confirmed the warranty and are taking care of it.
In case anyone looking for up to date pricing on the extended warranty. Take a look. NOT cheap.
7 year/115,000km is $5105
7 year/160,000km is $6440
5 year/100,000km (bascally one more year on top of the factory. to me this is just literally 4 months of driving) is $3205
At this price point, I am almost thinking that it may not even be worth it.
Well further shopping around revealed that different dealership offers different discounts. Oakville Alfa is not willing to provide any discounts on top of FCA pricing whereas Toronto Alfa is willing to knock off about $1000 off of the setprice and waving any associated inspection fee. Sent an email requesting quote to London Alfa, we will see what they are willing to do...!
Good to know. Thank you. I didn’t shop around, it would be easier just buying it at the same place where I bought the car, at Scotti too. Same coverage as its brand new.
If I get through the next 10 months I will have saved spending the price of a 5year extended warranty. Faith in the reliability of the 4C will have been justified. It’ll be a long 10 months. 😉😁
When I bought my 2015 4C new I got the warranty from ALFA for a total of 8 years which recently would have expired in March of this year. I contacted ALFA about another 3 years for drive train and overall mechanical. It was only $300 US per year so got that one. I suspect the price was lower as I only have a bit over 16,000 miles on the car and it is in flawless condition and all maintenance is done through the dealership. They didn't require an inspection either. My wife extended the factory warranty on her 2018 GMC Acadia Denali and it cost $600 per year. In her case I am not sure it was worth the cost as the car has been dead reliable. Her car has low mileage also.....about 19,000 miles. They did require an inspection on her car which was pretty extensive....about 3 hours long.
