Not sure on prices for Hummers, haven't checked, but a few years ago, they were going to sell me a Vette GMPP at less than I could obtain via a GM employee discount.
Should be worth a try.

I'll vouch for Fichtner Chevrolet. They have been great with the warranty pricing for the members over at Corvetteforum.com.

Ok so with the warranties that everyone is talking about, does that cover EVERTHING? I want to supercharge and if the warranty would still cover everything, that would be great. Also, I want to make sure that if I extend my warranty, it covers evrything like GM would. From what I have seen, GM is awesome with warranty work. Thats a major reason I went with my Hummer over a new Dodge CTD. Doge is AWFUL about warranty stuff. I just want to make sure that if my nav screen went on the fritz, or something like that, a NEW unit would go in. i know that some warranty places reserve the right to use USED parts to make a repair!

ASTAR,
Follow DDWH's link and poke around. It answers your questions. In fact, I'll save you two clicks to get to this page:

where it describes what's not covered.

Although it does not say it directly, I'm pretty sure Supercharging voids your engine and drivetrain warranty...

WHAT'S NOT COVERED BE MAJOR GUARD?
Maintenance services (such as engine oil changes), physical damage, glass, lenses, sealed beams, lightbulbs, and tires. Components not installed by the factory including cellular phones, theft deterrent systems, or air conditioning. Exterior deterioration of bumpers, sheet metal, body panels, and parts. Carpet, hinges, trim, upholstery, convertible or vinyl tops, moldings or bright metal. Air and water leaks, wind noise, odors, weather-strips, squeaks, rattles, paint, rust, carburetor, throttle body assembly (except injectors), contaminated fuel system, exhaust system, catalytic converter, brake rotors, brake drums, shock absorbers, and batteries. Everything else is covered!

Just got my 2 year warranty last month. They will go lower if you pay a higher deductible. My deductible is $200 and the total was $1,780. But I heard prices went up October 1.

My 05 SUT is a GM buyback. GM extended the existing 3/36K warranty another year and 12K miles. Do I still have to buy an extended warranty before the 3/36K is up? I wouldn't think so, but I carry a jar of Vaseline whenever I deal with dealers & warranties.

Also, I am eligible for GM supplier discounts. Do these apply to to extended warranties? Will the savings, if any, be better than the prices offered at the the Black Pontiac Cadillac web site, which, btw, is now out of date.

Thanks!

Was wondring if there is any new info out there about warranties. I have a 05 H2 with 16,300 miles on it so I am not even close on the miles but I am coming up on 36 months. Any info anyone has on extended warranties would be greatly appreciated.
