Extended Maintenance or not
#21
So if you buy the extended maintenance program from Rodney, every BMW dealership in the United States will honor the plan? Just making sure I can take it to any BMW dealership and they'll honor it.

I wonder if any one considers BIMRS, the independent BMW shops. http://www.bimrs.org/
In most shops you can save with BMWCCA membership, and you can do oil change and other necessary stuff more frequently, instead of the 15,000 miles before oil change.

Whatever the method, NEVER drive a BMW out of warranty (or Extended Maintenance in this case) as it will tear out you heart through your wallet!

I did not ask my dealer if they will accept Rodney's warranty so I called BMW Customer Relations and my car was in the system. My dealer has the same information and no problems servicing covered items. Dealers just want to make money selling the same product. My dealer even stated that without the key it is not even possible to sell it - which is not true.

i am thinking of getting this. My car has 43k miles and has warranty til 2009 but talked to the dealer & they said that i can extend it to 100k or 6 years which will be 2011. I can do it before it expires or within 10k of expiration but it will cost me a little more. i don't really want to spend the extra money, so i will take this as a security blanket and swallow the bitter pill.

So if I purchase a warranty/maint. agreement from Twinkidney, I DON'T have to first make sure that I have a dealer in my area that will accept it? Are you saying that ALL dealers are obligated to honor it (according to BMW customer relations)?

At least it worked for me... Search the forum for 800 number and give BMW NA a call. Anything sold by BMW dealer should work and Twinkidney is one of Atlanta's BMW dealers.
