Extended Warranty

I have one week before the 6 month factory warranty expires on my 2010 RZR. Trying to decide on buying an extended warranty. I normally take the risk of repairs and don't buy extended warranties on other equipment, but have heard RZR's can develop some issues. Will probably only put 300-500 easy miles on the RZR a year. Have most folks bought extended warranty. Where are you buying them. Are you buying Polaris, Western or Zurich. Anyone found discounted prices.

I bought my extended warranty today...I got the 42 month PO-PO deal for 799.00.
I would not have purchased it but the 2010 transmision problem had me worried. I bought mine at Great Western cycles here in Statesville Nc.

Just for your info...I have read on the rzr forum that the Western warranty doesn't cover some stuff that the PO-PO warranty does and also has a big deductable

Calling around this morning I was quoted $899 on a 60 month $50 deduct Pstar and $780 on 60 month 0 Deduct Zurich. Anyone know of anything better. Anyone have any experience with Zurich. Dealer claimed Zurich much easier to work with.

Did you give Forsyth Motosports a call? They are now a Polaris dealer here in Winston.

They are letting the new XP go for $16,500 OTD , so they might deal on their warranties also!!

I don't remember what I paid for my factory extended warranty but I got the zero deductible one. I wasn't going to get it but did and in hind sight it was a very good choice! I would highly recomend it!

WOW...that's a heck of a deal...I called 4 other dealers and they were higher than what I paid...Ya better jump on that.

I never got the extented warranty.....I have 1600 miles on my 09 rzr and everything I had to replace so far would not have been under warranty...I guess I have been lucky.....oops...I think the rack and pinon would be undwer a ext warr.

yes it is bubba had my 08 replaced under warranty when i had it

if i get the new rzr xp i plan to get the warranty because its the first year model.

but i have never go the extended warranty on one before.

WOW!!!! I beat you could do alot of repairs yourself for $800.00!!!
How much would a trans cost if it went out?
Just Curious!!! I may want to get me one of those high dollar toys you guys call RAZORS!! A RZR4 would be awesome!

I never get the extended warranty. The only problem I have had was a voltage regulator go out on it. It cost me 90 dollars and plugged right in place of the old one.

1400 for a trans is what I was told...my 2010 trans has the bad parts so it's just a matter of time. The 800 dollars is a big gamble but most people that purchased the warranty seem to be glad they did...I hope I didn't mess up

Steve, thanks for the heads up on on Forsyth Motorsports. Didn't know they were a Polaris Dealer now. Nice to have dealer close by. I will give them a call on Monday re warranty pricing.

My transmission went out 1 month after the factory warranty ran out. The price tag to fix it was $1400 for parts and labor, but polaris covered mine.

I'm glad I got the Polaris ext warranty zero deductable.
Polaris replaced or I should say rebuilt the motor from bottom up
on my 09 RZR.
A bearing failed on the crank shaft June 2010.

I decided to go with the $780.00 60 month Zero deductible policy from Zurich Insurance. Bought it over the phone from Motorsports Superstore in Alabama. Great folks to work with. Zurich allows you to take your machine to any Certified Mechanic. You do have perform all factory recommended maintenance, keeping dealer receipts for service or receipts for the parts and supplies you purchased if you do it yourself.
