2013 Acura TSX extended warranty

Our 2013 TSX has 43K miles at the moment and is still covered by Acura certification warranty till the end of November this year. By that time it will have about 50K miles on the clock and only power train coverage will still be in effect.
So far we owned the car for 8 month with no issues at all but as the car gets older it will probably develop issues here and there.
I am wondering if there is a reputable company that sells extended warranties that have coverage close to the new car warranty or Acura Certification warranty and aren't too expensive.
I need something like 8 years/75K miles warranty coverage and honestly do not want to pay more than $2,000 for it.
Please advise. Thanks in advance.

honestly with even 80k on 2013 TSX you won't have any issue.
my suggestion more your $2,000 aside and sure can cover any issues for next few years.

You own a Honda. Save the cash. Buy a new lawn mower, a 4 pack of expensive beer, a new refrigerator, but dont buy the extended warranty. These cars are very reliable.

The fact that it's a Honda is good enough warranty for me

At the very least I would like you to consider that if other cars are having issues at certain mileages, decide if you want to pay for those out of pocket if it does happen to you.

When I got my 2010 with the V6 two years ago, it had 73k miles on it, and I bought it with extended warranty. The rear main seal started leaking and my local Acura of Bellevue quoted me $1300+ out of pocket for labor because it's basically doing the 105k mile service. Got the rear main seal covered under extended warranty at 90k miles and had them install my 105k service parts while they were in there, saving me a huge chunk on labor in the long run.

The cost of parts and labor outweighed the total cost of the extended warranty for me.

Thanks.
What company was that extended warranty from? Acura?

If the car gets to 85K miles in 4 years with no major issues, I will.
