Not to drag everyone down but when I purchased my 1997 Jeep Wrangler, before the VX, I purchased an extended warranty from the Jeep dealership. It was a third party not Jeep so it was cheaper. I paid $1500 and I only had one thing that I tried to claim. I had problems with the brakes. For eight months the Jeep was in an out of the shop they replaced pads two or three times turned the rotors two or three times all failed.
They said I needed new calipers so I said use the warranty. The warranty company said "NO! Calipers are wear items." Calipers should not fail at 60K miles and no there not wear items. The definition of wear is; To damage, diminish, erode, or consume by long or hard use, attrition, or exposure. How does a caliper wear? Heat! That is the only thing that can damage a caliper. If you use this logic, among many others your engine is exposed to heat. Therefore, it is a wear item. But the salesman will swear up an down that everything is covered to get you to buy the warranty. Why? He is a salesman and once you sign on the dotted line he gets his commission and it's not his problem. It's the claims department's problem.
In my mind what I took from this is that "non-wear items" is a huge loop hole for anything they don't want to pay. They get your money up front and they are not going to let you have it back. I paid $1200 in brake repairs. Take the money put it in savings and don't touch it. You will be better off.
However, if you still want an extened warranty take the brouchure and read it very carefully word for word. My parents just purchased a new Chevy truck with the "Employee Discount - for everyone" the salesman pushed the extended warranty very hard, but luckly was called to the managers office for five minutes. Leaving the brouchure with my parents long enough to see that on the next page was a listing of items specifically excluded. On that list was half of the items the salesman swore were covered.
Oh and BTW, If you own any Jeep model first sign of needing any brake work go all aftermarket, Jeep/Crysler brakes are bad look around on the net and you will see.
