Honda Extra Warranty

[JB]

Had phone call Wednesday from Honda dealer where I brought the car from new, I then asked for e/mail below, at the top of e/mail
registration number was correct in e/mail it is wrong, not mentioned in e/mail but was when they phoned me was all extra warranty
prices are going up July 1st , I asked if new model Jazz is being released next year 2027 as I would be better saving the money for
that rather than extended warranty we will get back to you on that they said [Heard nothing as yet] I also said should not need extra
warranty with a Jazz reply prices are going up 1st July for warranty cover, I don't know what I will do but have doubts about taking
extra cover, it was like here's chance to make some money, and I have read and heard of so many excuses from all car makers not
to honour the warranty.

Well, I'm a "burnt VW child" and with them, it truly paid out to have taken the prolonged warranty!
As I am a first time Honda buyer I cannot say anything about their cars' reliability.
So, I took the offer to prolong the warranty for another 2 years.

I find it quite comforting that Honda has come around to offer an 8 year warranty for new purchases!
(they wouldn't do that voluntarily on a VW-"quality"-record!)
Plus: I'm always pleased to see that many older Jazz models are still on the road!

It boils down to this:
- If you want to keep your Jazz, you might want to think about taking a warranty extension.
- If you already have plans to switch, then don't!

 reply prices are going up 1st July for warranty cover,

Does this mean the price of their extended warranty packages are going up on 1 July, or does it mean the Price of a new  Jazz is going up to cover the cost of the so called  'free' 8 year warranty proposals?
(Or both)

Good question and I don't know the answer, she was in the administration office and kept emphasising that prices for
extra warranty were going up July 1st I think that was a shove to make you take it, what I can add is this, the salesman
who sold me the car was honest and genuine [was moving to a different car maker dealership in two months time]
anyway he said to me actual words , if you have to use Honda assistant all the AA will do is come out with another
battery.

Re reliability, in 18 years of running 3 Jazzes over 150,000 miles in total, I have never needed a repair of a type that would be covered by warranty. I do use the dealer for servicing, which gives free roadside assistance if needed.

Did you originally have the 3 year warranty?

I ask because my Jazz is a 72 plate, but I have the 5 year warranty, and in August it is due for the 4th service. I intended to purchase another 2 years at the end of the 5.. but unsure if you can buy the extra before the 5 is up.

When my Civics warranties ended it was just after a service was due so I extended the warranty at that service and they dated it to commence on the cars birthday
