Lexus OEM - 10 year / 100k warranty deals - THE GO TO DEALERSHIP FOR LEXUS EXTENDED WARRANTY in California is a Toyota Dealership in Montana (2 Viewers)

Will reach out to Troy again today. 👍🏽
Yes, so I had an extended email exchange with Troy. And I agree he is a super nice guy. Very patient and will explain everything in detail..

It’s a terminology (semantics) issue. So Troy does NOT sell “prepaid maintenance” programs for Lexus (What I’ve been referring to as VSA). He does however sell Lexus OEM Extra Care Extended warranties which both Lexus and Troy use the moniker VSA to describe.

Also, it seems from our fellow owners on this forum, the best time to try to negotiate with your California dealer as it applies to a extended warranty or extended maintenance program, is when you are picking up your new vehicle.

I’m pretty happy with $3300 for the 10 year 100,000 mile warranty through Troy at Greenfield Toyota. It’s at least $700 better than the next best options here in California. Again, remember you have to have an out-of-state address that you can mail to., and that can receive mail under your name.

You need to be careful about Lexus maintenance package. Read Lexus maintenance schedule about what you are getting. When I purchased my GX, the finance person tried to sell me the maintenance package, I asked what exactly is covered on the most expensive one, the guy said it would cover blah blah.... mostly 30K. I asked to show me to list. They had no clue what maintenance includes and most items he mentioned were not on the list. In summary, Lexus car has every 5K tire rotation, every 10K engine oil change, every 30K brake fluid change, every 40K spark plug change(Turbo Engine cut spark plug life into 1/3 of my V6 2GR-FE). I don't care air, carbon filter that I can take care easily(love Toyota cars). That is pretty much for 50K maintenance. It doesn't cover diff, transfer case fluid exchange, no transmission fluid exchange(Toyota claim lifetime), no coolant fluid exchange (Toyota has 100K change schedule), Engine oil should change max 5K (more often than Toyota suggested). You also have option to go to Toyota dealer for engine oil change for less $$. Dealer gave me quote 3K for 5 year maintenance which I don't think it is even close to a deal.

100% agreement with regard to prepaid maintenance.
 
Just received all of the paperwork for my 10 yr / 100k warranty. (Forwarded to me from my out of California address.)

Everything checked out. I paid $3300 - lower than any of the california dealers for the same product.

100% recommend going with Troy Dietrich at Toyota of Greenfield for your “Lexus Extra Care” warranty, even if you live in California (as long as you have an out-of-state address where you can receive mail.)
