Are RV extended warranties a waste of money?

Is RV Extended Warranty a Waste

We often hear people ask whether RV extended warranties are worthwhile. It’s a fair question for a couple of reasons: for one, you don’t need to have one. Secondly, they are an investment. Understandably, RVers want to be informed before they make a substantial financial decision. That’s why Wholesale Warranties is here to provide you with the educational background you need to confidently manage your travel budget.

To answer the main question: no; RV warranties are not a waste of money. However, you do want to carefully consider whom you purchase your contract with. You may find that a third-party broker, such as Wholesale Warranties, offers more comprehensive policy plans than an RV dealership. The most reliable companies will offer partial payment plans so you don’t have to pay in full upfront. You will want to work with a reputable warranty broker with exceptional customer service reviews, a perfect BBB rating, and a stellar reputation within the RV industry and community.

You may think that a warranty is unnecessary if you already have RV insurance. However, an RV extended warranty covers what insurance does not: unexpected mechanical breakdowns, random electrical failures, and even wear and tear.

Why should I get an RV warranty?

Unfortunately, RV breakdowns are alarmingly frequent—and expensive! Between parts and labor costs, repair prices are only on the rise as RVs become more complex. An RV extended service contract will cover major components, such as the powertrain, slide-outs, air conditioning, and much more. Some of the most common breakdowns are also among the most expensive. Your warranty company will cover the repair and replacement costs of any malfunctioned parts covered under the extended warranty. An RV warranty has the potential to save RVers hundreds or even thousands of dollars.

An RV extended warranty is a great way to safeguard your finances without putting a dent in your travel budget. A warranty for your motorhome or towable trailer grants you peace of mind on the road.
