Welcome to the forum. In a nut shell, extended warranties with new RVs come with annual maintenance obligations that must be performed by certified dealers. If you fail at completing any of these requirements, a warranty claim can be rejected, per the small print disclaimers.

For the amount of money these warranties cost, it may be financially prudent to "pass" on the warranty, put those savings into an "rv emergency repair fund" bank account, and contribute to that account periodically in preparation of a future fix.

Remember, RV appliances and components have independent warranties from their respective manufacturers, that are honored longer than the typical "1 year bumper to tongue" RV warranty. This can be a blessing if your Atwood refrigerator has a failure 2 years out of the RV warranty.

And if you never use your emergency repair fund, how nice will it be to have a sizable down payment on your next coach.

Just something to think about.
