Default Purchase Extended Warranty?

I bought a 2013 LS 460 F two years ago as a CPO car from Sewell. Now has 27,000 miles. Only problem I have had is a hesitation and check engine light come on twice. First time they said they had no idea why, and reset it. It's in the shop for the second time as I write this for the same thing. The CPO warranty will expire in November of this year. I really like the car and will probably keep it for another 3 years. Does anyone know if Lexus offers an extended warranty at this point? And if they do, is it negotiable? Thanks!

Yes, there is a thread here somewhere, sorry can't find it at this time - that has lots of info on extended warranty.
I'm looking to get one as well, and contacted my local dealer and they offer 4 year/48,000 miles for $3k among a few other options.

Your 5 year-old car will not qualify for Lexus' Platinum warranty that has to be purchased before the 4 year/50K new car warranty runs out. While this is my understanding, you can definitely contact a couple of folks who sell these Platinum VSAs at very competitive prices. They can provide the best advice.

There are quite a few threads discussing warranties from 3rd parties that are pretty good, but you will have to search for them. RiknChar has a good one on his 2010 600hL.

Good luck!

I believe you can purchase a Lexus extended CPO warranty as long as your car is still within the original 2-year CPO window. It's similar to the Platinum Warranty. I recommend you contact Toby Rivers at Lexus of Shreveport (800-335-3987 or tobytoyota@aol.com) to see what kind of price you can get on an extended CPO warranty. Toby has helped many forum members purchase extended Lexus warranties at a great discount!

If you can get the "official" Lexus CPO Entended Warranty, you'll be best off. My 2010 LS600hL didn't qualify for any Lexus warranties, but I found a great deal on a comprehensive warranty through CNA. My warranty covers everything I'm concerned about, even the hybrid batteries, and will cover me for the next 6 years at a cost of $2800. If you search for CNA warranties on this thread, you'll be able to read all about them. Good luck!

^^^^^^ What Rick said. You can get a 5 year, unlimited mileage Lexus Platinum CPO extension warranty from Toby for about $2600 (no deductible).
