Warranty About to Run Up - Anything I should check for?

My warranty's up this July and I'm thankful I haven't made a serious warranty stops yet. Is there anything I should be looking for before it's up?

Thanks.

Cam shaft sensors, had one of mine fail after about 53-54,000 miles.

As you can see there are things that can come up that you will not be able to detect...for that reason I like the piece of mind of an extended warranty. Some say no way becuase the cost isn't worth it and or they plan on doing mods that may void it anyway. There's plenty of threads to read on here about warranty debates. For what it's worth, if you're considering keeping the car for several years and would like coverage, check into it before your existing coverage expires. The price of aftermarket warranties is much higher if you wait.
