Zookie: where does it say the car must be driven for warranty to be valid? I think that explanation sucks.

"lack of normal vehicle use" & "Parts that fail due to lack of required maintenance" is all over the Factory & CPO Warranty Booklet

From so far of what I read, the IMS failure just "happens" (yeah, my car got an engine from that before). No particular reason whether you baby it or flog it every time.
I guess just drive the hell out of it till it blows up......

There`s been lots written on this in Excellence and use hasn`t been mentioned. Extremely high rates of RMS and IMS failure due to poor design has. I`m sure it`s not mentioned in the warranty so I don`t believe they could get away with not replacing it on this basis. Another easy court win. It`s absurd to expect many of these cars to not to have low mileage. They`re toys for ---- sake!
