DISCOUNTED Extended Warranty in California

[TBA]

Much to my dismay I recently discovered that I am not eligible to buy the extended warranty (I am in California) from Granger Ford, due to some new regulation.

Has anyone else run into this problem, have you found an alternative solution for a discounted Extended Warranty.

what regulation? Nvm googled it. California requires warranty to be sold by in state dealers only.

That's strange, I didn't run into that problem when I got my quote. That said, I didn't end up buying it from them (nor from Flood Ford) because I brought it into the dealership and they matched it. I suggest taking a printout of your quote from Granger and bringing it into the office and see how closely they'll match.

Same...is this a new rule for California I wonder? As soon as I mentioned Granger, my dealer caved and immediately matched. This was October 2022.

My Dealer also price-matched Granger, My dealer was Fairway. (The only thing they did correct!), but it was at the height of demand. I can now see MY23 Lightnings at dealer lots in SC that are not moving and aren't demos (green stickers). Early guys had the advantage of giving the dealers a gift horse, now that inventory is rising and green window stickers are showing for canceled orders on the lots, they are probably going to try to milk you on the warranty, so shop around for the warranty.

I am going to try this. I'll put in a different state online on Granger and see if my local dealer will match it.

I suspect your dealer is going to laugh, because they know you cannot buy it from Granger. Good luck!

I’m shopping around now I’ll keep you posted.

best I’ve had to date is $3500 for 8yr/100000 premium. That’s from Ford Store, Morgan Hill.

I’m going to try and get more quotes.
