For 2 long years I cursed the day I used the trade in value of my last car to buy an extended warranty from Universal Warranty for our 2000 95 Wagon, especially since I thought it covered scheduled maintenance (my mistake).
The past month and half they have covered $2400 in repairs for replacement Direct Ignition components and A/C repair in the past month, and the dollars keep adding up (new catalytic converter, and who knows what else), I'm really glad we got it. Universal Warranty also covers road hazard damage to tires, and covers some towing expense (a $150 value for me in the last month). I am a little bummed they won't spring to repair the sunroof, but I'll save that letter for after the car RUNS again.
Maybe I would have been better off investing my $2000 for the plan in a "rainy day fund", but who really has the self discipline for that?
Good luck with your decision
