Read the fine print on your extended coverage policy before you try to recover costs of repairs that were done by yourself. Replaced my converter to the tune of $300. Very simple job but when I contacted my bumper to bumper extended coverage company, I was infoemed that they would not reimburse for any repairs done by the owner. Had to be completed by a licensed repairman. So, any repair that will exceed the $100 deductable will be done by a shop even though I could do it myself with lots less pain in the butt and a lot less expense to the insurance co.
Most of the stuff people worry about ain't never gonna happen anyway.

I can't stand that B.S. There was a recall on one of the "detectors" in my Raptor but I had to actually lug my beast into a dealer to have it replaced. It would have cost me more in gas and my own time to get it to the dealer. I wrote the company a letter and asked if they could just send it to me since it was such a "Helen Keller" replacement and they told me that only a licensed dealer could replace it. So, I never got it.
