    Has anyone purchased the extended Service/Maintenance warranty?

    If so, is it worth the price (I was quoted it would cost around $1100 for a 4yr/55,000 service agreement.

    Welcome to the site. If you are interested in the extended warranty there is a sticky here that offers it at an unbeatable price. IMO the 150,000 mile warranty on the hybrid parts is enough for me. Taxi fleets have gone significantly longer without major replacement expense.

    Hi des, welcome to PriusChat. Warranties are for peace of mind. If you worry that the cost of replacing a part will be too high, get the warranty, but get it from here. Prius Accessories at the top of every page, then Discounted Extended Warranty. This is a genuine Toyota warranty, not a third-party one. You can check out what's covered on the Toyota Financial web site, or just search here. Many threads.

    Have fun with your car. You have until 36 months/36K miles to decide.

    I think the Maintenance Part is a marketing ploy. I called my dealer and asked what was covered and the normal prices, and it only adds up to about $600 if you pay as you go.
