Is the Volvo extended warranty worth it?

I got my Volvo S60 in 2019, and I’ve been considering purchasing an extended warranty from my dealership to proactively defend against some expected wear and tear. Do you think the Volvo extended warranty is worth it?

Keeping your
Volvo S60
as protected as possible, whether it’s with warranty or insurance coverage, is a great way to make sure your investment is going to last you for years to come!
That being said, whether or not the Volvo Increased Protection (VIP) Extended Warranty is the right move for you will depend on how much peace of mind you’re willing to pay for. There are three tiers of warranty coverage under Volvo’s extended warranty, all of which provide an additional 6 years or 120,000 miles of coverage:
  • Platinum: provides the most coverage with an extended bumper-to-bumper warranty, excludes coverage on damaged brake drums and rotors, brake linings, airbags, glass, and safety restraint systems
  • *Gold**: provides competent coverage for major powertrain components as well as cooling, electrical, steering, air conditioning, and braking systems
  • Powertrain: provides coverage against damages to your Volvo’s engine, transmission, and drive train problems.
Regardless of whether or not you choose to extend the warranty coverage on your Volvo, you can ensure that you’re always protected with comprehensive car insurance coverage when you download the
