Extended warranty. What's Missing?

Thinking about buying a 2016 X3 out of warranty and dealer has extended warranty they can sell me. The second price quoted on the sheet includes everything in this list. Anything major missing? I don’t see “struts” but I do see variable dampening suspension.. this car doesn’t have variable suspension but would struts be included in that?

Struts and shocks aren't usually a covered item. They are wear and tear items like brakes.

Is this a warranty directly associated with BMW? If not, I'd certainly not do it unless you like fighting with warranty companies. If it were me, I wouldn't waste my money on this and just sock the $2K away for a rainy day repair fund.

Never buy a warranty that isn't "exclusionary" aka the Platinum warranty. Get a quote from a reputable Fidelty Platinum seller, that is your best option if buying aftermarket. Should be able to get 50-55% off the retail price easily.

100%, exclusionary warranty or none at all.
