I agree with everyone else that says this is a sales pitch and you shouldn’t be pressured into it. However, he’s not wrong in principle that there are more electronics these days that are expensive to replace and can’t usually be user-serviced. I didn’t get one but thought about it just for the head unit and safety sensors that are outrageously expensive to replace if they break. I don’t think it’s as black and white as it’s been historically. One thing to consider is that you can always add it down the line if you want and you can get it from another dealer, potentially at a much lower cost.
