I bought it on my car, the exact same plan (gold plan, 3 year 45,000 miles). I figured it's about the exact same price or maybe even a little more expensive than doing the services individually, but my thought is this: Extended warranties are something you can take a risk on when you buy the car (not buying the warranty means always hoping that nothing goes wrong) but when it comes to maintenance, you're going to pay for it no matter what, so you may as well finance it with the car. The rental car coverage is a joke (I think it only covers one rental every 30,000 miles and only $30 or something like that), but the plan covers ALL preventive and routine maintenance within the 45,000 miles. It seems to me like everytime my old cars came due for an oil change, I was broke and couldn't get down to the dealership. With this plan, I just bring the car in every 3,750 miles and they do whatever needs to be done to it, whether it's an air filter, oil change, spark plugs, etc. and don't pay a dime for the visit. This way they can never try to say the car was improperly maintained to get out of doing some warranty work. It's registered through Nissan under the VIN, so you can go to any dealership, and if you sell the car before the plan expires you can get a pro-rated refund for whatever was left or transfer it to the new owner. It made sense for me and my first visit about a month ago was a positive experience (they only did an oil change the first time around). I'll be taking it in for the 7500 mile within a couple of weeks, and I'll let you know how it goes.
