same suggestion as Xavier.
I added a little function to tweak the LaissezVibrerTie, first created
by Enternix from the german forum:
http://www.lilypondforum.de/index.php?topic=1008.msg5637#msg5637
Of course there are other tweaking methods:
via control-points or use the functions of the attached file
containing possibilities to tweak Slur, Tie, PhrasingSlur, RepeatTie
and LaissezVibrerTie (this is a collection of function from the list).

\version "2.14.2"

extendTie =
#(define-music-function (parser location x) (pair?)
#{
  \once  \override LaissezVibrerTie #'stencil = #(lambda (grob)
    (let* ((tie-stencil (laissez-vibrer::print grob))
           (tie-ext (ly:stencil-extent tie-stencil X))
           (tie-length (interval-length tie-ext))
           (new-tie-length (+ tie-length (- (cdr $x)(car $x))))
           (scale-factor (/ new-tie-length tie-length))
           (new-tie-stencil (ly:stencil-scale tie-stencil scale-factor 1))
           (new-tie-ext (ly:stencil-extent new-tie-stencil X))
           (x-corr (- (car tie-ext) (car new-tie-ext)))
           (x-shift (car $x)))

     (ly:stencil-translate-axis
        new-tie-stencil
        (+ x-corr x-shift)
        X)))
#})

%--- test

\score {
 \relative c' {

   c2 c2~
   \repeat volta 2 { c2 c2 }
       \alternative {
       { c2 \extendTie #'(0 . 1.5) c2 \laissezVibrer }
       { d2 d2 }
                    }

   c2 c2 \bar "|."
 }
}
