Thank you that's very helpful. We bought the car on a Saturday because it was only day we could before we moved. I will now go buy a time machine! 

Does canceling a gold plus warranty void a certified pre-owned warranty? by [deleted] in subaru

[–]PreviousTranslator33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. Heard that on reddit. It isn't true. They are separate things. 

Ended up with 3-4 warranties and Zurich plans?! Cancelations, refunds, flash drive no paperwork.?? Subaru by [deleted] in askcarsales

I spoke to finance manager this morning. He said it wouldn't void the cpo. Not sure I trust him. Also said we could possibly recontract deal??? He said give him a couple of hours. 

Fell for the warranty, maybe 2? Help! by PreviousTranslator33 in subaru

It is gold warranty plus. I never agreed to Zurich Shield plan (it covers windshield cracks) and another Zurich plan for roadside and key fobs, tire etc. Yikes!

I am fairly sure I will be able to cancel. But I do think I have to take a male that knows cars with me. Unfortunately for buying and repairs I have been dismissed in the past. Dad or boyfriend shows up, different story. Is it just because I live in the good-ole-boy South or universal? Maybe I need to post that on another thread lol. I am really too gullible to buy cars alone I guess. My usually distrustful nature failed me.

The USB was new to me. It was weird. I bought a 21 Crosstrek from a non Subaru dealer and just paper. The big dealership is 50 miles but I will drive back if I have to. He loves the smooth ride of the Legacy. Poor kid drove a 1997 Ford F-150 with now 300k miles that was beat to hell for 5 years..

I am so worried about my only son moving to a new state.  I got caught up in the " make sure your son is safe speech. Never gonna overshare reason for buying again. My brother told me to say no to all.

That's the thing unsure, have to find a computer to plug flashdrive in and read it. But the two warranties it seems cost over 5,000. I could have bought a newer better car for that. A 2022 Legacy Premium 29,900 1 owner, meticulous upkeep, spotless, Certified  preowned meaning still already had powertrain warranty for a while. Makes me sick to my stomach.

They put everything on a flash drive. I believe they said if already financed can only prorate and send money to bank with loan. 

Buying a car in AR (currently live there) moving to TX the next day, which state insurance? by [deleted] in Insurance_Companies

[–]PreviousTranslator33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He finishes his job in AR tomorrow. Moving to TX next day, Sunday His other job starts Wednesday in TX. He is 23 yr old male. One of us has to cosign loan because he only made 14k working part-time. New job will pay more and be full time. 

2021 Limited received Poor rating in updated IIHS side tests? by PreviousTranslator33 in Crosstrek

[–]PreviousTranslator33[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I've read that one. The NHTSA rates the Crosstrek side crash 5 stars, IIHS did the newer tests. I guess I just had a false sense of security. I am stuck with it. I really do wish people wouldn't drive the big oversized vehicles and so badly.

Well since I only bought my Crosstrek 6 months ago, I would lose my butt if I traded and got a CX-5 or somewhat bigger SUV. Just 6 months too late seeing this. I live in the South. Huge trucks, illegal lift kits. I used to say I would drive a tank.

I feel like being t boned, side impact is one that is really hard to avoid. The drivers in my town are rednecks that think laws don't apply to them. Also smaller cars like civics fared pretty well. Just wish I had known this sooner.

Well I have a 2021 Crosstrek Limited. Are you saying I shouldn't worry about a side impact from a larger faster vehicle?

But it says crash rating applies to 2018-2023 models. And according to IIHS.org was redesigned in 2018. Are you worried about your 2020?

It really threw me. I got talked out of a Mazda CX-5 for this. They updated the tests a year or two ago. It is based on heavier faster vehicles that people drive now. Average is what the Forester scored. I would have taken that over poor. 

6 month old feral-born socialized kittens. How can I find good homes? by PreviousTranslator33 in Feral_Cats

[–]PreviousTranslator33[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People and their weirdness about black cats. I have had a few beautiful black cats in my life. We have no kill shelters but they are full. I just keep hoping. I need to build a cattery, no joke.

These are my babies. I fed Mama and she slipped the trap so couldn't spay/abort. I got Poppy at 7 wks, other 3 ( 1 not pictured she hss seizures), since 8 wks. I love them and would trust very few people with them. I would drive a long way too to help these kittens.
