I think that if your unwilling or unable to do what the dealer is going to do, pay for and use the extra warranty. So far I can do all that and save the money to buy the broken parts or fix what needs fixed. I take my time and do it over several days, maybe 4 to 8 hours total. This year, I did not have time to check, repack bearings and rotate tires. My local shop charged me 225, all bearings were fine, I paid for seals and grease, that would have cost me maybe 30 bucks. The rest was 2 hours of work. I may have taken more time and saved 150 to 170 dollars, Oh well, It got done before the 1,000 mile trip.
