Went to the Knapp Motors and Smithchevy site to get a quote for our Tahoe, quote request just went around and around back to the opening page or will respond later, no real pricing info obtained without calling I suppose. Anyone have any actual luck getting a quote? Are these sites actually selling the GMPP or is this a bait for some aftermarket misery?

I’m curious about this as well.

I’m also curious to know whether or not their GMPP runs in conjunction with the standard manufacturer warranty or if you can buy one to go into effect after the manufacturer warranty ends.

Black Cadillac was the GM warranty. They all start at zero miles, not after the 3/36 ends. So a 6/72 adds 3/36 to the existing warranty.

I KNOW you are right in that used to be the case, just wasn't for sure if that changed in the last couple years.
Yeah, can't comment on anything in the last 5 years.

Did get a quote good till 4/29, says the rates are going up a bunch on May 1st too. The warranty is now GMEPP and the listed time and mileage starts on the day of warranty purchase. This is a warranty for a non new vehicle that's still under the original new car 3 year B2B deal. Platinum or Silver coverage with the Platinum somewhat close to the original warranty with some exclusions. This is a GM warranty handled by AMT, not the Ally finance version.

Where they hook you though is mileage. Most owners blow past those mileage limits well before the time frames allowed. They really should be based on 15K a year...

These mileage limits work fine for us, our Tahoe now has 18k miles on it. But the rates do seem pretty steep I think, maybe there are lots of problems expected down the road?

I feel like 75k miles is too low to spend $3,500 in coverage

Also - i never read any one of those contracts but if you ever get into a car accident does that void any part of the warranty? Or is coverage still good but you have to have it repaired by a GM service center?

Read through the contract pretty close and didn't see any mention of accident damage. There are quite a few exclusions that are normally covered in the B2B new car warranty coverage. Haven't decided on anything yet. If it weren't for the AFM and the reported transmission problems I'd not be at all worried about the warranty. I'm pretty good with a wrench (and a hammer) myself.

Hey guys new to the forum I just purchased a 2022 Yukon xl and the only extended warranty they offered me was through ally I was skeptical as I felt it was a 3rd party warranty they sold it to me for about 7k for 7 years or 100k miles whichever comes first it seems alot to me I’m considering canceling it the guy at the dealer told me it’s through gmc which I don’t really believe I’m located in California and when I go on gmc website to try to get there extended warranty it says I need to contact a dealer for my state everything was offered through ally even the maintenance part any advice would be appreciated
