Should we buy the extended warranty on a used 2013 Honda CR-V?

Let me guess - the finance guy works for the dealer. The dealers make a ton of money on these extended warranties. I have never bought one and have never been sorry that I did not. But then again I never buy cars that will need an extended warranty. It is really a judgment call on your part. I personally doubt you will get your money's worth as all the serious problems will start long after 100k miles has past if you maintain the car properly.

Basically a "certified car" is one that has an extended warranty already as part of the higher cost you pay for one. A 7 year, 100k power train warranty covers all the high dollar repairs so the other $2,200 is pure profit for the dealer.

I had a Honda crv and never had a problem with it gave it to my kid I think they traded it with almost 200 thousand miles and never did anything to it but what the manual said I still see it around town so no keep your $ those are almost always pure profit

Thanks for the answers! The finance guy at the dealer said that "according to JD Powers" the advice changed with the 2013 models and all their computer components to purchase extended warranties". We've never bought an extended warranty before but wondered if we should these days.

The finance guys at the dealers are slick, high pressure dudes that make the real profits for the dealer. In my opinion they will lie and mislead you to make their money on everything from security systems to undercoating. Kind of like restaurants where they break even on the meal but make a lot of money on the drinks.

I have more of the same question. It is now July 2018 and i am purchasing a 2013 CR-V EX-L AWD with 65,000km. It was a trade-in to a non-Honda dealer and is in pristine condition but not "Honda Certified". Should I also forego the extended warranty?

I also have more of the same question. I have never bought an extended warranty on my Hondas, those engines & trannys go forever. But I worry about all the computer controls, electrical stuff, shocks, struts, AC, etc. We just bought a 2012 CRV with 28,000 original miles on it, almost mint condition. It's not certified because of it's age, so no warranty other than Lemon Law. As above, they offered a 7 year, 72,000 mile bumper to bumper for $2300. Every little thing that breaks is covered (other than brakes, exhaust, things like that). We'll probably only drive it about 10,000 miles a year, so I'm not really worried about the "mileage" aspect, but to have it still covered 7 years from now, when it's 13 years old sounds inviting. Or is the consensus the same, just not worth it?

I was offered 3 years bumper to bumper for $1600 Cdn. Your offer sounds like a good one. I did not end up taking the extended warranty, and really hope it was the right choice.
