Warranty Direct?

Is this good for a warranty? I went to warranydirect but it forwarded it me to carwarranty.com (Im in Canada). There is no BMW dealer near.

Rental Car Coverage -

Travel Interruption Protection -
Should your vehicle become disabled more than 150 kilometres away from home and the repair is covered under your contract, Warranty Direct will reimburse you up to $90 per day for up to 3 days per occurrence for lodging and meals.
Nationwide Protection / Choice of Repair Facilities -
PowerShield offers true freedom of choice. Repairs can be made at the licensed repair facility of your choice anywhere in the US or Canada. You may use your dealer or local mechanic. Best of all, there is no need to lay out money and wait to be reimbursed. We pay the repair facility directly over the phone via credit card. It's that simple.
I was impressed with the ease of use of your extended warranty program. With other programs I have had, there have been forms to fill out, and many complicated procedures to follow, not to mention limited locations to use. I was relieved to know that I only had to call one number, and everything was taken care of. I took my van to the dealer, and did not have to deal with reimbursements. To me, that was huge. Thank you for making it so easy to use your warranty! (A. Isabelli, OR)
Choice of Deductibles -
PowerShield offers a choice of deductibles to meet your needs. Choose from a low $65 deductible or choose a zero deductible and never reach into your pocket for a covered repair. The deductible is applied on a per repair visit basis; in other words, no matter how many items need to be repaired, you will only pay one deductible per repair visit.
Transferable -
For a modest $60 fee you can transfer your PowerShield coverage to another private purchaser of your vehicle. Vehicles with extended warranties offer much higher resale values because the buyer knows they are not going to get hit with huge repair costs and that prior problems were fixed.
Your Responsibilities -
a) Change the engine oil and filter within sixty (60) days of the warranty start date.

b) Have the engine oil and filter changed by a commercial service facility every four (4) months or six thousand (6,000) kilometres thereafter, whichever comes first.

c) Maintain your vehicle according to the manufacturer's recommendations as outlined in the owner's manual

d) Retain verifiable receipts for all parts and materials necessary to perform the required maintenance. Hand written receipts will not be accepted.
First time I have used your service. Have warranties from you on both of my cars, my daughter's car, and have recommended your company to 2 friends. Great service. My service advisor said you all were great to work with. No hassles. Very happy with you!!!! (I. Natkin, TX)
Coverage Limits -
You are eligible to make your first claim ninety (90) days and 1,000 miles after the start date. The maximum limit of liability per loss shall be equal to the actual cash value (ACV) of the vehicle at the time of repair. The maximum limit of liability per covered vehicle is $7,500. The limit of liability per covered component is as follows: $4,000 in engine claims; $2,750 in transmission claims; $1,750 in differential claims; and $300 in emergency roadside assistance claims.
Looking for higher levels of coverage? Visit WarrantyDirect.ca for free rate quotes. Higher levels of coverage offered on 2000 and newer models with up to 120,000 kilometres.

Yes, but not much discussion on it so I wasn't sure.

Discuss.

Do searches on Warranty Direct and warranties. The only one that consistently gets recommended is Warranty Direct.
