      My car broke down and it was initially determined to be an alternator problem. We took it to a repair shop, and they repaired it and then it started having problems. We took it back to the repair shop and it was believed it was an engine problem. We had the repair shop (************************************************************************) call Endurance Dealer Services to repair it. After 8 months of haggling, Endurance called and said they'd authorize the repair. The very next day, they called back saying they wouldn't repair it because it was driven to the repair shop rather than being towed. We checked the contract, and nowhere does it say it has to be driven to a repair shop (the truck was drivable). We have contacted Endurance via multiple emails and even asked for arbitration, but they refuse to respond.

      On 9/18/2024,Beldens Automotive contacted Endurance to file a claim for repairs under the consumers vehicle service contract. The repair facility stated that the vehicle was driven in with a rough idle and an illuminated check engine light.The repair facility reported multiple diagnostic trouble codes, rattling noise from the timing chain, and scoring on the camshafts. As a result, they recommended replacing the engine.

      Endurance dispatched an independent, third-party inspector to confirm the repair facilitys findings. The inspection report verified multiple diagnostic trouble codes and scoring to the intake and exhaust camshafts and caps consistent with metal debris circulating throughout the engine. Endurance requested that the repair facility obtain authorization from the consumer for further diagnostics to determine the initial cause of failure and the source of the metal debris.

      On 3/19/2025, after multiple attempts to obtain the requested further diagnosis from the repair facility, they stated that after teardown, the passenger side timing chain tensioner was extended by three clicks and seven on the driver side. To expedite the claims process, Endurance asked the repair facility to provide a digital inspection. The inspection report confirmed that the timing chain tensioners were extended by three teeth on the passenger and seven on the driver's side. This is consistent with the timing chain being stretched beyond manufacturer specifications, causing excessive metal shavings to circulate throughout the engine causing subsequent damage to the camshafts. Based on these findings, Endurance will authorize the initial cause of failure, which is the timing chain and tensioners. The engine was excluded due to the failure being caused by the continued operation of the failed timing chain per Section IX(P), which states that coverage is not provided:

      P. For a Breakdown of a covered component/part caused by Your refusal to perform reasonable repairs recommended by the dealer, Repair Facility, or Administrator. Any damage caused by failure to protect Your Vehicle from further damage when a Breakdown has occurred or failure to have Your Vehicle towed to the service facility when continued operation may result in further damage. Continued operation includes but is not limited to Your failure to observe warning lights, gauges, or any other signs of overheating or component failure, fluid leakage, slipping, knocking, or smoking, and not protecting Your Vehicle by continuing to drive creating damage beyond the initial failure.

      Upon receipt of this complaint, a manager from Endurance contacted the consumer to explain the claim details. Endurance is awaiting an estimate from the repair facility for the timing chain and tensioners to authorize coverage for the initial cause of failure. We appreciate the opportunity to address this concern.

      Best Regards,

      Endurance

      had a warranty with Endurance, vehicle required maintenance as it was displaying issues. Took to two different shops and was denied twice as an inspector came out to state that vehicle wasn't having issues as i (the customer) stated. Paper work from both shops (paperwork recieved) show that my transmission was indeed slipping. Myself trusting the warranty would not have me dig into my savings which i did. Trying to avoid getting a lawyer but i paid out of pocket over $6,000. I would even settle for half of what i paid. Receipt provided below and other documents can be sent if needed

      The benefits of the vehicle service contract become available once the waiting period has been completed. To file a breakdown claim, contract holders must follow the steps outlined in Section V of the vehicle service contract.

      During the coverage period, two claims were submitted regarding issues with the transmission. However, the repair facilities could not replicate the reported issues and were advised to follow up with the claims department to proceed with the claims once they could confirm the reported concerns.

      Upon receiving the complaint, a Senior Resolution Specialist contacted the contract holder to address her concerns. After learning about the completed repairs, the consumer was informed that she was ineligible for benefits due to the incomplete claim processing. Endurance proposed available resolution options, which she declined. The contract was then canceled at the consumer's request. For further assistance, Ms. ***** *** contact Senior Specialist Chenique at ************.

      As previously mentioned, both repair facilities were unable to replicate the reported failures. The initial claim was denied based on Section VIII.(D), which states that the contract does not provide coverage:

      D. [...] For any repair that has been misdiagnosed by the Licensed Repair Facility, or any failure that cannot be verified as accurate or is found to be inaccurate.

      The repair facility was instructed to follow up with the claims department once the failures could be replicated in order to proceed with the claims process.

      Furthermore, Endurance learned that the repairs were completed prior to obtaining authorization from the administrator. The contract does not cover any repairs or replacements made without prior authorization, as stated in Section VIII.(H).

      After reviewing the details of the complaint, Endurance is confident that the claim was handled in accordance with the terms of the contract. For any further assistance, Ms. ***** *** contact Senior Specialist Chenique.

      On April 6 2025 I took my 2018 Taurus in for water pump issues. The mechanic also found issues with the timing chain as pump is chain driven. Endurance agreed to replace water pump but, has given many reason not to replace timing chain. I have had multiple calls and emails to Endurance with no resolution on April 13th I filed for a reconsideration which per contract takes 1-2 days. It is now May 2 2025 and despite numerous promises for a manager to call back, NO CALL or EMAILS. Claims will not let you talk to a supervisor told there is no ability to transfer calls. Today May 2 I asked for legal department to request alternative depute resolution per contract. I was then put on hold for 57 minutes then disconnected. I will keep trying. Next step is lawyer,

      On April 1, a claim was filed under the consumers contract.The shop stated the vehicle was driven in with a concern of a coolant leak. The shop requested that the water pump be replaced. Endurance authorized the replacement of the water pump in the amount of $1,464.88. The shop called back because they found one of the timing chain guides was worn and cracked, and the timing chain was loose while the water pump was being replaced. Endurance dispatched an inspector to verify the failures. The inspection report verified there was a broken guide, but the timing chain was tight and working as designed. A manager from Endurance has reached out to the consumer to offer assistance with the timing guide. We are requesting the consumer to contact manager ***** at ************.We appreciate the opportunity to address the consumers concerns.

      4/1/2025 a service advisor tried to put in a claim with the warranty company for the vehicle I purchased a couple months ago that went through state inspection and passed without any issues to vehicle, we purchased a warranty to avoid any issues that could possibly come due to mileage but they said no worries it will be covered I will just have to pay the premium and have a wait period and no issues to be carried along which was no problem like I said vehicle was just purchased and state inspected. I had my vehicle checked out a couple days prior to buying the warranty because I had an engine light that came on for a flex fuel sensor and they offered free engine light checks which I did. I purchased the part and had a shop install it and did not have the issue anymore. I have had the policy a bit over 3 months and over 2500+ miles additional and I started to have a slip in my trans and the shop made a claim and they asked me about showing a document of invoice about my truck being at another car care prior to my policy starting like why would that matter but anywho I sent it over and now cant get a response. The adjuster supposedly was talking trash to the current shop about it and relayed the message to me. Claimed he talked to someone and said something and no one talked to me. The *** I talked with didnt even respond back when I sent over the document and I been in this process over 3 days and this is the reason anyone buys the warranty is because they wouldnt have to worry about issues later occurring to be covered during their time with the vehicle. Disappointing part is I had a vehicle with them prior and never had this issue which was contract EVPU6237093 and now have a policy EVPU88029545. When I had to cancel my old policy they wanted me to transfer but they wouldnt cover our new vehicle we bought because it was a exotic vehicle, we finally come back because we bought a regular vehicle again to use as a daily and now their not holding their end up

      Thank you for bringing this to our attention. On February 26, 2025, the consumer contacted Endurance and purchased the Secure Plus vehicle service contract. On April 30, a claim was filed under the contract for a transmission repair. Endurance acquired a vehicle history report indicating the vehicle was at a repair facility on February 26. Endurance did request a copy of the repair order from the consumer, and the consumer attached it to this complaint. The repair order doesnt have the correct phone number for the repair facility to verify their findings, so Endurance looked up the phone number. Upon contacting that shop, they confirmed they diagnosed the consumer's vehicle with a transmission issue. Since the failure was present the same day the contract was purchased, the claim was excluded for a pre-existing failure,since it pre-dated the purchase of the contract.

      **BBB Review for Endurance Warranty Services**Ive had an Endurance aftermarket warranty on my 2012 Dodge Ram 2500 for several years and recently filed a claim. To my shock, it was denied. Despite providing paperwork dating back to 2018documenting every oil change and all maintenance performed, whether done professionally or by myselfthey denied my claim. Their reasoning? One of the Grease Monkey locations I used for an oil change years ago supposedly used a "discounted oil." That single instance was enough for them to deny my claim.This is absolutely unacceptable. After reading countless complaints about this company, its clear Im not alone in this experience. Endurance has a pattern of finding any excuse to deny claims, no matter how minor or irrelevant. Now, my truck is in the shop, and I cant even afford to get it out because it required a 9-hour teardown just for a diagnosissomething Endurance insisted on.This is not how you treat long-term, loyal customers. I either want my truck fixed as promised or a full refund of the money Ive paid into this warranty. Avoid Endurance at all costs. They will take your money but refuse to honor their end of the agreement when it matters most.

      The contract purchased by the consumer, the Advantage Prime, includes a Limit of Liability that defines how much can be paid out over the life of the coverage. Under the Advantage Prime, the total payout for all claims combined cannot exceed the lesser of $10,000 or the **** Average Trade-In value of the vehicle at the time of the repair.

      In this case, the consumers claim was authorized up to the **** Average Trade-In value at the time of the repair.

      As part of the claims process, the consumer was asked to provide maintenance documentation to verify that the vehicles maintenance requirements had been met. Per the terms of the contract, acceptable documentation must be a computer-generated invoice from a licensed repair facility, printed on letterhead, and include the customers name, vehicle details, VIN, date of service, and mileage. Handwritten documents or receipts are not considered verifiable under the contract.

      The initial document submitted did not meet these criteria. However, a manager has since spoken with the consumer, and additional information has been provided. That information is currently under review.

      We appreciate the opportunity to address the consumers concerns and will follow up once the review is complete.

      Regards,
