Has anyone opted for the extended warranty through GMC? Or does anyone have experience with it? Initial research I have done indicated that Zurich is a bit hard to deal with.

 

Thanks!

If you were offered Zurich, that's not the factory authorized extended contract anyway.  The factory plan is from AMT, and is branded Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac, or GMC Platinum Protection.  Zurich is an insurance company offering an extended plan, but since they have no vested interest in the vehicle (same as other third-party providers), they have no incentive to cover a borderline repair - they won't make money that way.

For the authorized GMC plan, see here: https://www.gmc.com/protection-plans

Correct. My guess is we were offered through Zurich because the GMC plans are not available in the state of Florida.

I chose the option for $1800 on our 2021 Tahoe LT. We had so many out of warranty issues with our 2015 Tahoe that is was an easy decision for me.

Ask your dealer if they sell a product called "CNA Wrap". That's what most of the Caddy's have had for "Certified Used" in our area. Can be bought on any GM vehicle. CNA Wrap has the best coverage of any ext warranty I know of. Read the fine print. Do not trust the sales person. Dealer I worked at added Zurich and they are already consider dropping it. Getting claims is a real hassle. Just put a CNA Wrap on my 18 Silverado with 2 weeks left on bumper to bumper warranty. $1285  5/60. $0 deductible at selling dealer. Your price may vary.

I believe I purchased something similar. It was called the Platinum Wrap and provides 60m/100k coverage

Is it 5/60k from purchase date of warranty or car in service date? Also what dealer did you use? I’ll have to inquire at mine. Thanks

      Lower trims ( WT, Custom, Silverado ( aka LT )

      By newdude · Posted

      HD at the moment, are kinda their own deal.  How LTZ sells on those vs on 1500, there is a difference.   They are merging most of the mid trims on 1500.  LT, RST and LTZ are replaced by one trim, Silverado.  LT and RST are a BIG portion of sales.    Bad naming choice aside, the new Silverado trim will offer the spread of options that those three trims offered.  So expect to see things like the tech package for example, and memory seats.  And LT Trail Boss will now just be "Trail Boss" (formerly LT Trail Boss) but will offer content spread like the new Silverado trim will.  The press photos showed the Trail Boss (formerly LT Trail Boss) has access to Super Cruise now, which on the current truck was High Country only.       Here is the Trail Boss interior.  Memory seats and Super Cruise are present.  All things the LT Trail Boss it replaces, and the RST it was based on didn't get on the current gen.  You had to go to LTZ or ZR2 for memory seats, and High Country for Super Cruise.

      2021 vs 2026 handling (1500 X31 Sierra)

      By dennismc · Posted

      I installed a Hellwig rear sway bar on my 21 Sierra SLT, it made a huge difference on how the truck handles, no body roll, the trucks much more planted now. Not sure of the suspension differences between the 21 and 26,  if its body roll your having a sway bar will solve it.

      frustrating P0446 code

      By Old Bay · Posted

      So a follow up and my fix. I found in online searches the live data to look at on a scan tool to verify the fuel tank pressure sensor was working.  It showed an spec number towards the lower end of the rang, but in spec.  Then while it was running opened the gas cap and the pressure should change.  It didn't change even a tiny bit.  The data for the purge valve said it was open...never changed. So then I measured the voltages on the plug for the fuel pressure sensor and they matched what it should be.  So local car quest parts had the sensor in stock...it was a bit of a pain to remove and an even bigger one to get it to actually go back in.  It helped to unbolt the driveshaft and bungie cord away from the gas tank to give a bit more room to work. So fuel tank pressure sensor in I cleared the code, and started it up.  I went to the scan tool's live data and... Eureka! The pressure number was different and fluctuated a bit.  So took it on a short drive and pressure number varied saw the purge valve go from closed to open and back to closed.  Drove it to and from work for roughly a week plugged in the scan tool no codes.  I took it in to get tested and passed.  In my state's infinite wisdom (oops meant greed), since I pushed the test with the maximum extensions I have to take it back in by Feb '27 to 'get it back up to date', then my next test won't be until Feb '29.
