Unhappy Should I get my money back?

I just bought my used 99 GS4 about a month ago and got an extended warranty with warrantybynet for $1100 6yr/100K. I have 28K on my black beauty and was considering cancelling my warranty and taking my $ and run! What would you guys do???

I've read many posts on the forums and have perform searches until my fingers hurt. I'm thinking it's almost worth the risk with the reliable ratings of this car.

I would really like some fresh perspectives from your experiences with repairs.

Thanks,
Don

imo, i would keep the warranty, cus u never know and with that warranty u'r covered. think about it , how many years have u have had car insurance and never got into an accident or got it broken into. i know car insurance is way bigger of a chance but the point is u never know. keep it u'll feel better i think.

Ive had my car for 3 mo now, also bought a 99 GS w/ an extended warr. I knew the ball joints were going so I knocked the price off the car when I bought it. 2 weeks ago I decided to get the ball joints fixed so i brought it into the shop and called the warr. company. Surprisingly the company covered the ball joints and the speed sensors which were also F-ed up. Total cost would have been 900+ It costed me $100. The warranty came with the car but had I had to buy one, it would have paid for itself. I was very skeptical at first like you but this experice should comfort your anxiety about it.
Keep it.

i agree. also, 1100 is a good price for a 6 year warranty.
