My problems with warranties is I rarely trust the dealers. Case in point:

Had minor issues with our SRX, did some research, found that it was most-likely the transfer case, and there was an improved model. Took it into the dealership, tech took the car into the shop to check transfer case PN. When he came back, he stated that the part number is that of the new model. Big shock.

This totally disagreed with my information, so when I got home I decided to check. Lo and behold, it was the old PN. The SOB had lied to me, he never even bothered to check. After confronting the service manager about it, he stated that he had "had a talk" with the tech. Great. Issue still hasn't been fixed, and I've gone about as far up as I can go with the dealer. Now they aren't returning my calls. Fortunately it's not a serious issue, and we otherwise like the car. I have one independent regular shop I trust, and one BMW specialist shop I trust. Dealers are crooked as hell, at least in my experience.
