I think buying an extended warranty for a vehicle with low miles makes no sense. As previously posted, if it has been taken care of, it shouldn't cause the kinds of problems that a warranty is designed to cover.

I have had extended warranties on several cars (in my younger days) and never had the opportunity to use them. The only one that turned out to be advantageous was for my W124, which had 72K on it when I purchased. Not long thereafter, I had the A/C evap go out, the main wiring harness, and the belt tensioner and front valve cover seal. All replaced for just the deductible cost. Figured it paid for itself.
