I will admit there is more Honda does not cover but they are standard things people should not expect to be covered. I don't know maybe I am crazy I don't need that extra stuff, I know when my plugs go bad (later than 80k), and wires last longer than that. Other stuff like floor mats... I don't think your warranty place would cover it since they don't break, (Although they wear.)
Your warranty was quoted to me at 1296 and that was for 1 less year, but 5000 more miles than what I got for 556. Thats more than twice. I will replace my own plugs for that. And who knows the future of http://www.warrantydirect.com, they are 12 years old, but how big are they? They don't list assets or debt as far as I can tell. HondaCare is underwritten by Old Republic/Minnehoma Insurance Company, they are listed as a A+ (Superior), their long term issuer credit rating is aa- which is excellent. They are huge with a financial size of 750Million to 1 billion. To each their own...
