Warranty For Life???

I am in the market for a new Fifth Wheel. I have been shopping the different dealers in and around the New Orleans/Baton Rouge/Hammond Louisiana area and have some idea of what I want.

One dealer is offering "Warranty For Life" on their new units.

The other dealers say that this is a scam, and has a bunch of hoops to jump through in order to actually use the warranty. They also say that you have to pay a bunch of money for this warranty, and that it actually doesn't cover much.

Do any of you have any experience with the Warranty For Life programs being offered at some dealers?

Thanks,

When I was looking at a new RV at a dealer here in WV the unit I was looking at the Lifetime Warranty on it. The dealer gave me a brochure that detailed what was covered and what was not covered. As stated by someone else it was mostly basic coverage on the listed components. The only real caveat was that had to have the annual maintenance performed by a dealer. I asked if it had to be them and they stated no but it had to be a dealer that performed the work. As far as cost I assume that it is built into the price since they were offering it as a free item.

Personally I don't think it is a scam but that is JMHO.
