RE: Tire and Wheel Protection

I spent the time 2 days ago to investigate this further. The dealer agreement that I originally bought, although transferable to the next owner was a trade in. So it was a total waste of money imo to by a dealer policy for Tire and Wheel as if I remember correctly it was a $500+ purchase that I lost on the trade in...as I only owned the trailer 11 months and traded it in to the same dealer.
I called GS and asked about trying to extend my dealer Platinum+ agreement to be a "complete" level with tire and wheel. This can't be done since modifications to dealer agreements are not allowed and a new agreement would have to be purchased. The cost $599.
However I was able to purchase a tire and wheel agreement for 5 years that I'm told is transferable to a new owner and/or a new trailer as long as it is a 'like type towable'. This was for $299. Which was purchased.
After this experience, the devil is in the details. It seems like a few of these add on agreements from a dealer are not as flexible as a direct purchased GS agreement and even though branded the same are not the same.

Tire and Wheel Protection

(Repost) - I sent the requested info in a PM and did not hear back thanks.
I just traded in my trailer and bought a new trailer. In transferring different plans, one plan that did not transfer was the wheel and tire plan. It was a 3rd party product sold at camping world. So I did not take out a new plan as the way I looked at it I just lost 4/5ths of the value of that plan.
I was told that the 'real good sam' plan was transferable is that true? And is it true that it is just an extended option on the roadside assistance?
Last, the old plan covered not only the trailer, but the tow vehicle while towing. Does Good Sam cover that?
thanks

RE: Extended Service Plan VSC - transferable

An update on this as I just got a call from the CampingWorld dealer. Although my service plan is not "transferable" from my 1 year trailer to my new trailer, the value (4 of 5 years) is prorated and I get a credit to use on my new trailer. This is all fine with my as roughly this is 4/5ths of the original costs and what I would like/expect.

RE: Extended Service Plan VSC - transferable

I understand how this works on a car and if I would transfer the service plan on a private sale. But…
For a GS policy it is transferable to a new trailer but there seems to be two classes of service plans those online with the GS website and those sold by Camping World that are branded as a GS service plan.
Anyways just asking if anyone knows the difference and how you “get value back” on a trade-in. For instance a cancellation with a prorated credit towards a service plan on the new trailer, etc.
Thanks

Extended Service Plan VSC - transferable

Interesting enough, I'm asking this on a late Friday since the plan administrator is closed. I'm in the process of purchasing a new trailer and trading in my old trailer (11 months old). I thought the Service Plan was transferable to a new trailer (or I was told and found that to be true via the search). Upon calling GS, they said yes it was and then when they could not find my name they gave me a number to call since I purchased the plan through the dealership (Camping World)...saying that these are different but a 'Good Sam' service plan is transferable.
I just found the paperwork and it says Good Sam Extended Service Plan and in little letters VCS. So is this transferable to a new trailer or is there some other type of GS service plan and this is some after market thing?
Its just a big pill to swallow when you paid about $2500 for a service plan with 4 years still on it.
Thanks in advance
