Would you do an Extended Warranty?

Hi Folks,

Our 16' 40e has had its original warranty expiry and we are considering BMW canada's out-of-warranty warranty extension. The prices are higher than if the vehicle was still under warranty so not sure if it is even worth considering now?

The only issue we've encountered since being out of warranty was a faulty AC. So not sure of longterm reliability out there as the mileage increases. Currently have 99K km so about 62k miles. Here is what we are looking at:

2YR/40,000km = $7,100 cad
3YR/60,000km = $10,200 cad
4YR/80,000km = $14,000 cad

If the 40e only held its value we would be looking instead at another X5, but the depreciation on it is remarkable so we no choice but to keep it longer. Lesson learned..... lease a PHEV/EV for next time!

TIA
