You can buy an independent vehicle extended warranty without going through a dealership. I have never bought one, but it might be handy for you.

Welcome to the forum.
Be very careful of buying independent extended warranty plans without doing some serious investigation of the company offering them. The warranty is only as good as the company that backs it because all it is is an insurance policy.

My subs never cost me major bucks till 200k miles/10 years. I have had two extended independent warranties I would not buy again. Maybe I'm just lucky!
