Good Sam extended service

I got a call this morning (half asleep) in response to my enquirees about this. Here is what I understand

Unit is a new TT worth about 30K currently covered by storage insurance.

1) pricing seems very reasonable I believe they quoted me $150 a year with a $500 deductable
2) covers replacement if it is written off or destroyed in a fire etc?
3) cover repair of problems like slide, fridge, etc
4) Does it cover leak damage?
5) Apparently I can suspend it temp with 30 days notice. An advantage since it will be in Mexico 4 months a year and not covered anyway, except by Mexican insurance
6) Apparently it is US residents only and I live most of the year in Canada, but I have a US mailbox (I live right on border), so they said that is OK.

Right now I have insurance on my current RV which does not cover things like appliances or leaks etc. It does cover if I write it off or a tree falls on it, etc. i pay pretty close to what Good Sam is quoting, so Good Sam seems like a much better deal. On both RV's I have to purchase liability from my regular insurer which in my case is ICBC.

Anyone that can provide more insight?

  • We keep the extended warranty AND Insurance, and are covered for anything that may happen. Although I don't have the numbers in front of me, I will tell you that it is worth the peace of mind. We have had 2 Motorhomes, and the first one had a fridge breakdown and a broken windshield. Both would have been thousands of dollars out of pocket. The warranty covered the fridge, but not the windshield, but our insurance took care of that. The second had 2 AC replaced and only cost our deductible. The labor and time the techs spent on them was more than that . You can also put it on a stored suspension for as long as you have it off the road. Our insurance offers this also. There are way too many things to go wrong on these rigs to not have some coverage. And it is true, dealerships have their own types that they offer, and seem to be much more than GS...
  • On further investigation it looks like it covers just RV going wrong sort of stuff and its $187 a year. I still think that seems reasonable considering what the dealer quoted me for an extended warranty.
