Actually, that’s what you get for believing a car dealer.

FYI, we have a 2016 750Li xDrive with 50,010 miles in inventory. New car warranty is expired and yet the CPO warranty coverage that is printed from DCS says that it expires 4/30/2021 (which is 5 years from its in service date).

Interesting as one would think a Used Car Manager would know there was no 750
Li in 2016. They were all one wheelbase and 750i in USA.
Now, let’s examine the rest of your post and what you left out in full disclosure to the forum and @dang
You took the car in question with 49,900 miles. You then Certified the car with 49,940 miles, just INSIDE the New Car Warranty.
The car has been driven 70 miles and is now OVER the 50,000 Original Warranty at 50,010 miles.
HOWEVER, the CPO goes off the miles WHEN THE CAR WAS CERTIFIED as a CPO.
As the car was Certified 60 miles under the wire, yes DCS shows the expiration of 4/30/2021.
If you had waited 60 miles to certify, the car would only be Certified for 12 months.
Thus (to my surprise) when a car with less than 50,000 miles and less than 4 years old sold as a CPO could extend the EW (CPO) to 5 years unlimited, but the car MUST BE CERTIFIED prior to reaching the 50,000 mile/4 year mark, else it can only be certified for 12 months. Of course that contradicts the 2 contradictory web pages, but whatever.
As thus, your post was misleading as it lead @DanG and others to believe a car with 50,000 miles+ could extend their EW for 3 years and unlimited miles, which is false.
And I will admit I learned more today than I wanted to know.
That’s good news for the OP.
However OP, make sure you read the Buyers Guide very carefully prior to signing the contract and make sure everything is as it should be according to dates.
