That blows. Any other pressure you can apply on them?
Ask the arbitrator to make them pay the fee if he rules for you.
Good luck.

I agree, keep on then and pressure them. Threatening with calling the Better Business bureau or threatening to sue will get there attention and make them reconsider. Best of Luck!

I would have an attorney write a certified letter immediately...that always gets their attention. As said previously, warranty companies are this game for profit, not problem resolution.

BBB has no strength.....Trust me on this one, make copies of the documents, outline the strengths of your argument, keep the letter polite and brief..Then send the entire package to your state attorney general, you may even want to tell the insurance company you plan such action as just the threat of that kind of heat usually gets their attention, good luck, sorry bout the engine.

Actually, in many states, these warranties are considered insurance and are regulated by the insurance depts. These depts have complaint depts and again, depending on the state, can be quite responsive.
You may want to check this out.

This is a good call too, it's inexcusable for these warranties to pull this nonsense. If they did their homework and decided Boxsters needed a special premium due to their propensity to blow up, then fine, however their lack of foresight isn't your problem.

I know it's been a ******************** lately, but bless this country for having all these levels of recourse for the consumer (without having too many and turning into a regulatory nightmare). It's by no means perfect, but it does put things in perspective vs. some places in the world.
