Hello fellow Aziners,

My Acura care expired on Saturday August 3rd I am still at 88,300 miles can this is extended in any way? And if not what choices do I have for coverage. The Rl is a 2006. I not changing this car for now...it will be around for the next 3-4 years.

Much help and response is appreciated.

Why not drive it without a warranty?

the car is 7 yrs old...warranties expire...it's an acura, you should be fine. unless you have had issues and you unfortunately have an RL that likes to keep causing trouble. at which point, it might be wise to seek another vehicle.

if you go with a 3rd party...it'll be obscenely expensive, and the chances of getting to cover anything should problems arise...may prove to be more trouble than it's worth.

my TL is 8 yrs old...no warranty since the original factory one expired...no issues. i'm the original owner.

Did a little Googling. Seems like Acura Care can't be extended. To be sure, you should look at your Acura Care contract as it should tell you directly.

You could do an aftermarket vehicle service agreement, but that is costly (though less costly than buying a new car). RLs are reasonably reliable at high mileage, so you could take the risk and drive without coverage.

Take the money you would spend on a third party warranty and invest it in something that could cover repairs (6 month CD, etc.) should they arise. Then you would be getting a ROI while hoping nothing breaks instead of hoping something breaks just to get a return on your investment.
