First out of pocket repair expense

In hindsight, the extended warranty was a waste of money, but they are based on actuarial tables. House odds, and the house (BMW) will ultimately win.

I believe I read somewhere on the internet (therefore must be true) that 95% of extended warranty buyers never use it.

It is funny, but the reason they complain is because they had to spend their mod money to repair things they didn’t want too
