I only drive 3300 mi/year. I think I'll pass but the price of a steering lock failure alone, would make the coverage a wise move. Any thoughts out there?

$1400 for 4 years, do the math,
it costs less than your daily coffee money.
But it gives you peace of mind.
I don't know the package in US, but in Canada, it includes:
4 X oil change
Rental Car
Trip compensation if the car break-down when you are on a trip.
Road Side Service
Tires Puncture
You do the math, 4 X oil change = $200
Road side assisstance $400+/4 years.
That's $600 already
In case you have steering lock failure, they get you a rental, let say it take 2 weeks to get the part in, that's $35X14=490 for car rental.
Plus the parts & labor being covered.
And you know for a 4yrs+ old car, not only the steering lock will fail...
You do the math.....
I purchased the warranty last year when I pickup the Z brand new, I have some issue with the top (roadster), the Canadian dealers doesn't have courtesy car, but the extended warranty package does, and it is well paid off....
I suggest it.
