ehh? isn't the 2007 warranty for powertrain 60 months or 60k miles? that means longer engine warranty.

 

ahh, what you edited!!!!!

 

yes...i did... i'm doing more research

why would they split it like this?

 

Interesting....

 

maybe engine and tranny is less of an issue (for cars other than rx-8) than everything else that this gives them a way outta warranty work...lol

 

lots of other car makers split the warrenty like that. it costs too much to replace random switches, and other things that don't have anything to do with the car's powertrain that'll break from normal usage. i think all the american makes cap bumper to bumper at 24 months and powertrain at 36. hyundai caps bumper to bumper at 5 years and powertrain at 10 years (though why would you want to own a hyundai - and for 10 years at that?). lexus, acura, and infinity do 5 and 7 year b2b and powertrain. it's just a way of cutting some of their losses sooner.
