I would say no

It's not fairy story, did it on mine, some dealers are doing it...

Hi guys quick question. I just bought a new S5 and was wondering if you guys would purchase any extended warranty for it? IF so which one? Also if you bought one, what did you pay for it? Thanks

There are some good points made in this thread. I could probably go on for days about the pros of extended vehicle coverage but the long and short of it is "peace of mind" and a price that is comfortable for that peace of mind.
In the end the best coverage will come from and exclusionary policy (this is what comes with a new vehicle)CPO's are inclusionary and don't cover the full scope an exclusionary policy cover. I'm not saying CPO's are bad, I'm sure many members have saved a bunch of repair money with their CPO.
As far as the "reliability" question... sure its reliable.. until it breaks!!!
If your looking for some more info regarding "extended warranties" shoot Erik and email at erik.dreis@gmail.com he will be more than happy to provide you with info
