Warranty thoughts

[mikefocke]

All the offers I've received from Warranty Direct have been well above that figure.

Glad they are still paying. Though I've heard through a friend of a situation where it took almost a year and arbitration before they settled on a cooked engine.

Yes, I guess I got lucky and I got even more lucky as the owner of the independent shop (Don's Autowerks in Cambell, CA) who diagnosed the IMS failure was willing to take on the fight on my behalf and Warranty Direct finally caved in after more than 2 months. But I also had ALL maintenance records did oil changes every 5000 miles and the IMS failure was diagnosed in it's early stages (Checking the oil filter for shrapnel) so WD couldn't use any of the usual excuses.

But I agree I would not derive a general statement from this that Warranty Direct is better than the others

Let's terminate the thread and see if this TW (time waster) can come up with something a little more creative, controversial and thought provoking. Wake me up when it happens...
