Keep in mind you don't want their extended warranty, you all want the KNOWN PPROBLEMS TO BE FIXED. Why wait for it to break and beg them to fix it. It is their problem. Their extended warranty trick is buying time to tell you are no longer cover under warranty. Don't wait for them to tell you it is now out of warranty. It is just the matter of time and it will happen to everyone of us. This is not about warranty repair issue, IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE, "DEFECTIVE MATERIAL WORKMANSHIP", AND MUST BE FIXED REGARDLESS OF WARRANTY. Fix the problem and keep their extended warranty.
