I never was a supporter of contracts and to this day. All that being said when we purchased our new MH 2 years ago my wife insisted on it, I didn't argue with her.
As I type this email my MH is at General RV and has been for two weeks ( sat there a week before they looked at it, even with a appointment). I was then told that they're waiting for approval from Cornerstone ( extended service contract holder). That it could take some time. What??? I spend thousands of dollars on a contract that needs approval based on their schedule? Then I was told after the approval they would then order the parts ... Which is another 7-10 days before they would get them in.
I was given the option to "purchase the parts myself " to speed it up and try to get reimbursed from Cornerstone. Keep in mind this is the same dealer that sold me the contract. So I said to my wife today, the decision to buy that was one of the stupidest things we have wasted money on.
Bottom line, in the remaining 3 years I'll need to do thousands of dollars in repairs each year to break even. Plus the drive train and engine are covered under their own warranty for 5 years anyway. One year from Fleetwood on everything and two years on the structure. So bottom line, there are many systems in your RV that may have separate warranties that cover things.
Most likely your gonna lose. Run away!
