Thanks for everyone's help on this.. fyi - the vehicle is out of factory warranty.
It doesn't sound like it's that great of a deal because you are essentially only getting a 60mo/11,000 miles coverage. As I know that most warranty starts the date count from the day you purchased the warranty, but the milage covered is the total milage on the car, regardless (NOT addition to your current odometer reading!). Therefore, a 60,000 mile warranty on your car ends up being only an 11,000 mile coverage (60,000 miles total warranty - 49,000 miles on your current odometer = 11,000 miles coverage). So...unless you're only going to drive 11,000 miles in the next 5 years, it's not a good deal because I'm sure your warranty will expire on milage first. You should be looking at a 60mo/100,000 mi warranty instead.
