How do you extend a BMW warranty?

A friend of mine just had some major issues with their car, and it’s making me worry about my BMW X5. I opted out of the extended warranty when I bought my car a few months ago, but now I regret it. How do you extend a BMW warranty?

Just like solid
BMW car insurance
, an extended warranty can help you pay for some of your car’s unexpected repair costs. If you want to extend your vehicle’s original factory warranty, all you have to do is give your dealership a call. They’ll assist you in updating your coverage.
BMW offers three extended warranties, all of which last for seven years or 100,000 miles. Here’s a quick rundown of the type of coverage you get with each plan:
  • Powertrain plus: Limited coverage for all the major parts and components of your car’s engine and transmission.
  • Gold: Comprehensive coverage for your engine, transmission, fuel and cooling systems, brakes, heat, and air conditioning, with limited coverage for some electrical components.
  • Platinum: Comprehensive coverage for all the parts and components covered under the Powertrain Plus and Gold plans, plus the vehicle’s audio, infotainment, and navigation systems, and limited coverage for the car’s interior and exterior.
