Car Warranties
You Can Pay Less For Warranties
There's been a revolution in the world of Car Warranties in recent years. If you're not already paying less for your policies, then you need to shop around online to make sure that you get a better deal.
It was once the case that most UK car owners looked to buy car warranty policies from car dealerships, or other vehicle retailers, such as car supermarkets.
Car retailers were happy to supply such policies, although they were in fact often selling on behalf of other companies. In effect, dealerships were acting as middlemen.
Given their dominant position, they were able to attract the vast majority of customers. With those customers being unaware of alternatives, the situation continued over a period of years.
In recent years, a change in attitude within the industry has seen warranty prices drop for many. Unfortunately, too few consumers have been taking advantage of the better deals on offer.
One reason for the better deals has been that independent vehicle warranty companies have started to use the internet as a way of selling their products direct to car owners.
They've realised that, by operating online, they can reduce their costs and hence pass on lower prices to customers. This is great news for UK consumers.
Unfortunately, many consumers are still not aware of the better prices on offer. If you've not looked into buying warranties online then now could be a good time to start.
Many online specialists allow you to get a quote for free, with no obligation to go ahead and make a purchase.
This means that it has never been so easy to compare prices and find a car warranty deal that is right for your needs.
There's no longer any reason to be paying more than you have to.

Why have cars become so complex?
In the last century, cars were very simple, usually reliable, easy to modify to your tastes, and more connected to the road. Now, it is very hard to find a new car that has a simple mechanical linkage to the throttle, brakes, steering yadayadayada.... I've driven cars that have zero driving aids and a brand new cars that have some stupid facebook status thing. I just don't get it, isn't half the reasons why more crashes happen are because of driver error because they want that new Volvo that can literally stop itself in traffic? Those systems are going to make people not drive as well because of a false sense of security since 80% of people on the road that I encounter are terrible compared to me despite the fact that I only have a permit. And these systems could become mandatory on new cars as soon as 5 years, which will make the initial costs and future maintenance costs go WAY up.
I prefer to drive a simpler car because I have to be more attentive (that'll make me a better driver) and I prefer the feel of a car that's simple, since I usually don't like everything computerized in a car. I also want to modify the car by adding wheels, maybe a new suspension and put a loud ass stereo in it, which if you do to most modern cars, they'll cause the car to become weird and unreliable, not to mention you'll void your new car warranty.
How do you guys feel about this and when I buy a car with my own money in a few years, should I get an older Subaru low-mileage or something?

Defective car sold to us, possible seat belt issue.?
My father purchased a 2011 Corolla from a Toyota dealership yesterday. We signed all the papers yesterday so the deal is complete all we have to do is trade in our old ford and pick up our new corolla. Today the salesperson who sold us the car called us and said that there would be a delay in terms of picking up the car by today. He said the battery was dead and there was a possible seat belt issue, which immediately was a clear safety issue. The finance manager thought told us that the battery was going to be swapped out today for a new one and there wasn't a seat belt issue from his behalf. However when the salesperson who sold us the car said there was a seat belt issue and the finance manger said that the car didn't have a seat belt issue me and my father contacted the Federal Trade Commission to file a complaint. The agent who we talked to said that on their half the dealership honored the cars warranty and swapped out the new battery. I understand that a car thats on display at a dealership will have the battery drained from people turning on electronics ans stuff but they didn't tell us any issues about it before we bought it and we have two different stories on whether or not their is a issue with the seat belt or not. Tomorrow we are going to talk to the GM of the dealership and come to a agreement. My father wanted to get back his 4000 dollar down payment and wanted to cancel the contract, but the dealership told him that he already signed the papers and its final, weather he likes it or not he is going to pay the bill next month. What is our legal stance in this situation I understand the battery issue but we are getting different statements on the salesperson and finance manager on weather or not there is a issue with the seat belt. If the car is in good shape however my father demands compensation from the dealership from the issue. He wants a extended warranty on the car because he doesn't want any additional problems with the car after the battery-seat belt issue.Thank you for taking the time to read this and any advice you guys would have would help us out tremendously
