I REGRET PURCHASING YOUR WARRANTY
November 8, 2023

MY VERY FIRST CLAIM REGARDING ENGINE FAILURE WAS DENIED WITHOUT EVEN VISITING THE DEALESHIP THAT I PAID TO TEAR DOWN THE ENGINE FOR YOUR ADJUSTER TO VIEW. I WAS TOLD AN ADJUSTER WOULD VISIT WHICH DID NOT HAPPEN. I AGREED TO PURCHASE THIS WARRANTY AFTER SEVERAL CALLS FROM YOUR COMPANY AND NOW REGRET DOING SO.
