Larry W Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 I received a call today at work from a company called Nationwide offering me an extended warranty plan for my Lexus. They offered a plan that covers the entire drive train, (timing belt too),power steering assembly, a/c, electrical (starter,alternator), etc and pretty much all of the major items are included (GPS too if I had it) and I can choose my own shop to take it to (Lexus or Toyota). 24 hr roadside assistance is included. The plan extends my 90,000 beauty to 190,000 or 5 years for $2805. Has anyone purchased this plan and how is it? Are you pleased? $168.30 per month seems like a bargain, but I would like some feedback from other owners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billydpowell Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 I have never heard of them, but it sounds like a 550. a year expence to me. And I doubt you will have that many "problems" with a 1990 LS400 with 90k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexusfreak Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Something sounds fishy to me....do they have a website or are a member of the BBB? I didn't know one could get an extended warranty on a 15 year old vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDM Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Please don't fall for that scam. It's been going on for several years now, they randomly call numbers and promise a warranty on your car without any information what so ever. They're looking to fish your VIN as well as address and credit card info to sell to other people. I used to get calls daily at any hour from at least 3-4 dozen places offering this. I'm surprised you'd never heard of it. No one can offer and backup the claims these people make, they'd be out of business on day one if they even remotely held up to their promises.

I did some research and found one complaint on rip-off report.com. 9 or 10 complaints on the BBB website. Most of the complaints were resolved. The (3) US companies do "NOT" have an accreditation from the BBB. I think we'll pass on this company for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcbted Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 They flooded the market in Ontario a few months back. Tons of compaints, because we have a "no solicitation list" up here, yet this Nationwide company somehow broke through. Its a complete scam, ignore it.
