thats weird because our rep said the only exceptions they can make for the platinum VSA is when the time is a little over but the car is still under 50k miles. They make no mileage exception, not even a 1. Look on the paperwork and see what the mileage was they put on your warranty registration form...

I assume you bought your car from a dealer? In that case, then yes, you can buy a Platinum VSA at the time of purchase for any car within the last 9 model years, regardless of mileage. I discuss this in the 2IS Buyer's Guide thread here: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...e-threads.html.

The relevant excerpt is:

At the time of purchase of a non-CPO vehicle that is within the last 9 model years, you CAN elect to purchase a Platinum, Gold, or Powertrain VSA, but NOT an extended CPO warranty.

For a car out of the factory warranty period (past 4 years/50k miles), the only way you can purchase an extended VSA is at the time of purchase from a Lexus dealer.

Actually i did not buy it from a Lexus dealership. I bought it from my car from a Audi dealership which was not affiliated with the Dealership i bought the extended warranty from (which was a Lexus Dealership in Mnt Kisco). I bought my warranty completely over the phone. Since it seems no1 believes me ill go dig up my paperwork and show you it is possible. I would hate someone to buy a warranty from a 3rd company when this person offered it to me for less than what a 3rd party warranty offered me.

Then you must be able to buy a warranty at the time of purchase even if it's not from a dealership. I do know you cannot buy an extended warranty at any time other than at the time of purchase for a car outside the factory warranty. What I didn't know was that this applied whether you bought from a Lexus dealer or not. If this is the case, it's news to me, so I'm glad to learn it. I do have to imagine there are stipulations though - like I don't imagine you can buy a used Lexus from a private seller and then buy an extended warranty from a dealer somewhere else, since the car you bought could be a total lemon. Lexus has to have some way to vet the car.

Damn I didn't know this... I screwed up. I just rolled 50k and was thinking about buying a warranty. Guess I'm SOL now.

Just pulled out my documents


Heres what it states

Miles: 24,000

I would add photos but im on my mobile device. But i hope this helps and doesnt get this representive in trouble =|.

Okay jus called Lexus about this and they confirmed the process with me. What happened was the dealership i sent it into sent in a "application" and lexus looks at certain credentials such as year make model and miles. I told him it was my friend that did this and he told me it was not possible and exactly what you guys stated. Soo assuming i got lucky to get a VSA warranty, maybe you will too. I would give it a shot.

I wonder if they changed the code because my 27E is a $50 deductible. But seems legit

Very interesting, thanks for following up with all this info. I called Lexus as well and they confirmed the above, that you can't get a VSA warranty for a car out of factory warranty unless it's at the time of purchase from a Lexus dealer. So it just sounds like you got super lucky - congrats!
