Well, I have a Geico Policy with $1M per incident and $200k property so your inference that Geico offered limits are not enough is ignorant....almost just like your statements that catastrophic failures only happen on internet posts.

The factory warranty is not held to such high standards that an insurance company has to follow. So you have a much better chance of MBI paying for an issue over the factory warranty, as asinine as that might sound.

There is actually distinguishing difference between a "warranty" and "insurance" although they might seem the same.
Nope.

States regulate Insurance.

Just as Extended Warranties are not actually Warranties, MBI is not Insurance and as thus not regulated by the State.
It's called Mechanical Breakdown "Insurance" and it is underwritten by the 3rd largest insurance company in the US.
