Hello All,
I have never posted in a forum before so I apologize if this is bad form.
I have been reading this forum a lot and you guys seem to be "in the know".
We are to pick up a 2015 Sprinter passenger van for the family today after waiting for 5 months and borrowing cars to get us by. I would be very excited, but I am nervous about the decision of the warranty and maintenance.
1. I think ? the new warranty extension to 7 yrs/175k for $4,225 is important and who knows if down the road I could afford a mercedes repair like the ones talked about on here!
2. So, the question Is the maintenance prepaid program...
I am no mechanic, but I could always handle changing the oil on my old pick ups. Most of the stuff listed is checks except the transmission service which seems to run over a grand. I'm NOT experienced enough to run all those checks myself, and I worry about the warranty being voided because I did not document something correct as the sales guy says, maybe to scare me?
I appreciate any guidance you can share before I drop an extra $8+ grand on these items at pick up.
Thank you very much and have a groovy day,
