  Took my 2017 Infiniti QX60 to ****** ******** in Grapevine, Tx. On November 18, 2023 for a problem with my camera sensors all of suddenly just going off randomly driving down the street. They started doing this around November 14th. Also had noticed a randomly popping noise when making a tight right turn. The dealership determined around about the November 24th that the sensors were bad and the popping noise was the strut assembly. Both items are covered by warranty but on calling MPP they were told MPP needed to have an inspector come out and inspect. He came out on the 28th and on the 29th both claims were denied. The camera sensors were denied because of supposedly overspray and this vehicle has never been in a front end collision of any kind and the sensors were working correctly up until November 14th. The popping sound from the strut assembly was denied because he couldn’t duplicate the problem after both I and the dealership heard the noise clearly. I am requesting a different inspector be sent out immediately because according to my dealership this particular inspector has gotten it wrong a few times on different issues before. I would like my claim covered per my contract. Contract # ********

  Dear Sir or Madame,
  We are in receipt of your letter
  regarding the above referenced customer and ID. 
  On or around November 24, 2024, we received a call from ****** ********
  advising that *** ***** vehicle was in their service facility with the
  complaint of collision sensor inoperative and noise in front when turning.  They advised that both front sonar sensors
  were faulty and both front struts were making noise.  We assigned an independent inspector to verify
  the cause and extent of the reported failure. 
  Upon inspection of the vehicle, the inspector noted that the sensors
  were operable but erratic.  It appeared
  the front end may have been in a previous collision and the sensors were
  missing gromets and had paint overspray. 
  He inspected the struts and found no noise or failure.  The repairs were denied as non-covered
  repairs.  On December 1, 2023, Mr. Roe
  contacted our office and provided pictures dated from 2021 where the sensors
  were identical as noted by the inspector however, they were operating correctly
  then.  Our claims department authorized
  the repairs to the sensors and as goodwill authorized the claim for the struts
  as well.
  
  We hope our response satisfies the
  Bureau and Customer of any concerns. 
  Please let us know if you should have any questions.
  
  Sincerely,

  I paid over $4000 for an extended warranty on my truck. I filed a claim to have the phaser replaced because on multiple occasions my truck has lost power when I tried to accelerate. I came to find out that the significant noise that happens when the truck is cranked is the same issue related to the truck losing power while driving. The extended warranty company denied coverage because they said that the noise goes away within a few seconds and that the oil change was delinquent according to the sticker. My truck gets full synthetic oil change every oil change which extends the life of the oil beyond the 3-5k miles noted on the sticker placed on the truck by most vendors. I scheduled an oil change within a day or so of the truck notifying me that the 'oil needed to be replaced soon.' Not to mention I have 2 cars, and I dive my other vehicle much more often than this truck. They were seeking any reason to deny coverage. It's a known issue for this model truck and it is a safety hazard to drive. I either want all of my money back for the policy or I want them to honor the claim. I have taken exceptional care of this vehicle and there is a significant mechanical issue that should be covered.

  Dear Sir/Madame,
  We received your letter regarding the above referenced
  customer and ID.  In reviewing our
  records, we do show that on or about November 7, 2023, we received a call from
  David McDavid Ford advising that *** ********* vehicle was in their repair
  facility with a complaint of rattle on cold start-up.  They advised there are no codes set, no check
  engine light, run-ability problem and goes away in a few seconds.  We advised that there does not appear to be a
  failure, just normal for an engine with 91,000 miles.  *** ******* contacted our office and voiced
  her displeasure in our decision and we advised we would send an inspector to
  verify.  The inspector reported that the
  engine does have a rattle that lasts about 2 seconds upon cold start but goes
  away.  He verified that there are no failure
  codes set, no check engine light set or any other engine problems seen or heard.  The repair facility agreed it was just the
  initial rattle on start up and no other problems and signed off on the matter.
  In the complaint, *** ******* claims the rattle noise is a
  known issue with her model of vehicle. 
  While the manufacturer has recognized that some customers complain of
  the cam phaser rattle on cold start ups and have provided some suggested
  solutions, they do not see the problem as more than a nuisance or otherwise
  they would have provided a recall to correct it.
  While we do sympathize with *** ********* situation, we do
  not see where her complaint is a failure under the vehicle service
  agreement.  Please let us know if you
  should have any further questions.
  
  Sincerely,

  Re: **** *******
  ID ********
  Dear Sir/Madame,
  We received your letter regarding the above referenced
  customer and ID.  We regret that Ms.
  Johnson has rejected our previous response. 
  The claim was denied as there was no covered failure proven.  While there is a rattle noise upon start up,
  it goes away after a short period of time. 
  There were no failure codes detected or check engine light on as would
  be the case with an engine failure.  In
  the complaint, *** ******* notes that this is a common occurrence on her model
  of Ford trucks.  There may be numerous
  customers that complain about the noise on start up and goes away but the
  manufacturer doesn’t recognize it as a mechanical failure or they would recall
  the model to correct the problem.  It’s a
  known noise for vehicles that have high mileage.  Regarding denying the claim due to failure to
  maintain the vehicle as recommended by the manufacturer, this was mentioned but
  was not the deciding factor in the denial. 
  Had there been a valid claim regarding an engine failure, we would have
  required the customer to prove it was maintained as per the factory
  recommendation.  The vehicle is equipped
  with an oil life indicator which indicates when the oil should be changed but
  should be changed every 5,000 miles or every 6 months.
  Regarding *** ********* demand to either repair her vehicle or
  completely refund the amount paid for the coverage.  Unfortunately, there is not a covered failure
  to repair and she has utilized 83% of the mileage limitation on her service
  agreement in order to refund the total amount paid.
  Again, while we sympathize with *** *******, we do not have
  a covered under the service agreement at this time.
  Sincerely,
  ****** ****

  I am rejecting this response because:

  MPP has done everything to not honor the contract that they received $4550.00 for. As you can see through their bogus justifications and explanations their position from the beginning was to deny service.  I am good with that, simply return the entire $4550 that was paid to you to provide this sort of coverage.  I will also be filing a claim and utilizing this documentation to show that they engage in deceptive business practices, and that MPP steals people's hard earned money as often as they find a person who will not fight them back.  I would like to settle this immediately.  I want the money that was paid for this contract to be returned and for the contract to be voided!

  I purchased gap insurance for a vehicle I financed. When the car was totaled, I filed a claim with MPP for the difference that the car insurance didn't cover. The total owed to the finance company is $1541.82. A person from MPP named ******** **** told my finance company, ***** ********* ********, that the amount was too high and that they were not going to pay but rather give a gap refund in the amount of $362.65. I was provided a number to call for Rosemary but every time I called, no one would answer. It would tell me to leave a message and no one ever retuned my calls. I emailed Kerry Freed from MPP and this person told me they don't cover certain costs. None of the costs listed to me were related to my situation. This feels like fraud since I paid for a service that was not provided. Please help. The claim number with *** ** *****. Thank you.

  Re: ***** ******
  ID ********
  Dear Sir or Madam,
  We are in receipt of your letter regarding the above
  referenced customer and ID. We do show that on or about July 5, 2021, *** ******
  did purchase a 2013 Toyota Camry. At the time of vehicle purchase and installment
  sales, she also opted to purchase a GAP Debt Waiver Addendum in conjunction
  with that installment sales. The GAP Debt Waiver, subject to specific terms and
  conditions, agrees to waive or cancel a portion of the debt equal to the
  difference between the Actual Cash Value and Net Outstanding Balance, both
  defined in the Addendum, in the event of a Constructive Total Loss. On or about
  April 21, 2023, the lienholder contacted our office and advised the vehicle was
  totaled. We advised them of the documentation they would need to remit and sent
  an email stating the same. After going back and forth retrieving the required
  documentation, it was noted that *** ******’s auto insurance company deducted $1,507.00
  for condition adjustments. Unfortunately, the GAP Debt Waiver Addendum does not
  include amounts deducted for condition adjustments so that was added back into the
  settlement amount that was paid. Additionally, it was noted that there was one unpaid
  monthly payment in the amount of $176.66. 
  After calculating the net GAP Debt Waiver Addendum benefit to waive, the
  result was $292.74. We also calculated what the cancellation refund would be if
  no benefit was waived and that amount was $362.65.  Since the actual amount to be waived was less
  than the unused portion of the GAP Debt Waiver Addendum, we issued the refund
  instead since it was the larger amount.
  While we sympathize with *** ******’s situation and that
  there continues to be a remaining balance, it is a result of her auto insurance
  carrier deducting the condition adjustments.
  We hope our response satisfies your and *** *******
  concerns. Please let us know if you should have any questions.
  Sincerely,

  Dear Sir or Madam,
  We are in receipt of your letter regarding the
  above referenced customer's rejection to our previous response.  The GAP Debt Waiver Addendum purchased by *** ****** is subject to specific terms and conditions.  It states that it will waive or cancel a portion of the debt equal to the difference between the Actual Cash Value and Net Outstanding Balance, both defined herein, in the event of a Constructive Total Loss.  Unfortunately, the GAP Debt Waiver Addendum does not waive past due amounts at the time of loss nor does it waive amounts deducted by his auto insurance carrier for condition adjustments.  Had *** ****** been current on all past due amounts and had his auto insurance carrier deducted the conditions adjustments, his outstanding balance with his lienholder would have been fulfilled.  His complaint really should be with his auto insurance carrier for deducting the condition adjustments if he feels his vehicle was in good condition.

  MPP is the company that my mother pays $100 monthly to provide mechanical failure repair coverage to her 2020 Nissan Altima.
  On May 1st, the car overheated while driving, I was driving it. I stopped immediately. AFTER stopping, the radiator blew up!! It was so loud that it frightened me so much that I called 911.
  
  MPP refuses to fix it because they say there is evidence of a collision.
  
  There was no collision I can get the 911 report to prove it The car overheated and then the radiator blew.
  
  MPP examiners have their head on backwards because they're thinking the problem is there's a hole in the radiator That is not the problem That is the result of whatever else the problem is!!
  We did not have a hole in the radiator and then the car heated up because of that That is not what happened.
  The car overheated and after it overheated the radiator blew a hole in it!!
  That is clearly a sign of the coolant system failing. MPP refuses to cover it.
  
  Mpp should at least cover the cost of further diagnostics by the dealership. Then if it turns out it is a powertrain issue then Nissan can cover it. As it is the car has been sitting at the dealership for 2 months with no one doing anything about it!!
  And MPP cannot get it through their heads that the hole was not caused by a collision as I said I can get a 911 report to prove that if necessary!!

  I am not power of attorney, I am the complainant. The complaint regards a car that is owned by my mother. My mother is 86 years old and has memory issues so she cannot remember details. Therefore I am filing the complaints because I can remember all the details and also I was the one driving the car when it broke down.

  We are in receipt of your letter regarding the above referenced customer and ID.  We do show a vehicle service agreement on a 2020 Nissan purchased on February 19, 2022 by ***** ****** ******.  On or about May 2, 2023, ***** ****** contacted our office and advised vehicle overheated and radiator blew up.  We advised her to have the repair facility contact our office so we could initiate a claim.  The repair facility contacted our claims department and advised the vehicle was in their shop with overheating and needed to replace the radiator.  However, they could not advise us what caused the radiator to fail and how it was damaged.  They advised they would call back when they diagnosed the problem.  We sent the repair facility an email on May 12, 2023 for an update on the cause of damage but did not receive a response until May 15, 2023.  Repair facility emailed stating the radiator blew up from being over pressurized.  Our claims adjuster responded back that it was impossible for that to happen and needed a real diagnosis and some pictures of damage.  Repair facility emailed again on May 30, 2023 with pictures but were not clear enough to determine what had failed.  The picture showed either a long term radiator leak or an ac condenser leaking.  We emailed back asking for clarification.  We received no response back from the repair facility until June 29, 2023 at which time we decided to send an inspector.  The inspector determined the radiator was damaged from an outside impact.  After reviewing the inspection report we denied the damage repair as impact damage which is not covered under Ms. Graham's vehicle service agreement.  Customer contacted our claims department and we explained the reason for denial.  Customer advised that they had called Police/Fire Department when it overheated and the police report does not show collision with another car.  We advised that there is definitely damage to the radiator from impact from an outside source.  We are not saying that it occurred at the time of overheat or if the impact was with another vehicle.  But an outside source did impact the radiator at some point causing it to leak and thus overheat.  We did advise that if the customer would authorize the repair facility to remove the radiator so it could be inspected closer, we would gladly send the inspector out again.  We have emailed the repair facility multiple times since then for a status and have not received any response back at this date.  Once the repair facility can do that, we would send the inspector as agreed.

  We hope our response satisfies the Bureau's concerns.  Please let us know if you have any further questions.

  I purchased a new vehicle at the end of April but upon reading the documents provided, the MPP contracts did not align with what I was told at the dealership. I spoke with the Finance Director who emailed the cancellation request to MPP on May 15th. I followed up with Hyundai Motor Finance on June 7th, who stated they had not received it. I then called MPP and was told that they had not received the email from the dealership and I needed to fill out the cancellation request, which I did, on the same day. I just called Hyundai Motor Finance (today is June 28th) and they still have not received the refund. I called MPP and have now been on hold for 32 minutes, waiting to speak with someone. The full amount due is $ 4,365.00. I need an update on why this has not been completed. This has been going on two months, and still isn't resolved, which is ridiculous since I've provided all information needed, in the time frame outlined in the contract for a full refund.

  I took my 2019 Ford F150 XLT truck to dealer Maxwell Ford in Austin, TX for a strange noise. The diagnosis was: REPLACE ALL FOUR VCT UNITS TO CORRECT ENGINE RATTLE. I have Platinum Coverage with MPP but they refuse to cover the repair because my car is still running, I don't have any lights on and additionally the noise goes away in a while.
  The dealer tells me that if I don't fix this, the engine could be damaged. So should I wait for this to happen and MPP says again that I don't have coverage?
  I need this problem fixed, that's I'm paying for this protection.

  Dear BBB Consumer Complaints,

  we are in receipt of your letter regarding **** ****** and Complaint ID *********  On or about June 22, 2023, we received a call from a Ford dealer advising Mr. ****** had his vehicle in their shop with a complaint of rattle noise upon cold start.  The rattle would disappear once warmed up and did not have any Service Engine Soon or Check Engine lights on.  The repair facility wanted to replace all of the cam phasers as a suggested preventive measure by the manufacturer.  The rattle noise is a common problem with the Ford F150s and the manufacturer suggests through bulletins to try this preventive measure to see if the noise would go away.  Unfortunately, there is no covered mechanical failure at this time, only suggested preventive measures provided by the manufacturer.  The rattle goes away when the engine warms up and has no effect upon the performance of the vehicle.

  While we sympathize with Mr. ******'s situation, we do not find any covered failure at this time.

  Please let us know if you should have any questions.

  GAP POLICY CLAIMS ISSUE
  I purchased a GAP policy with MPP for my 2018 Hyundai, Tucson and it was totaled on March 12, 2023. I was informed on June 15, 2023, by the GAP claims adjuster that they only covered $2,411.95, which leaves a balance of $1,641.95. MPP also applied the prorated amount of my GAP policy of $1,784.25 towards the loan balance. I was given the run around have never dealt with a company as shady as MPP and I would advise others to stay clear of this company. It took MPP 3 months to pay only a portion of the loan balance.

  We are in receipt of your letter regarding
  the above referenced ID and customer.  In
  reviewing our records, we do find that on or about August 28, 2021, Ms. *******
  did purchase a 2018 Hyundai.  At the time
  of purchase, Ms. ******* also opted to purchase a GAP Debt Waiver Addendum in
  conjunction with her Retail Installment Sales Contract.  Subject to specific terms and conditions, the
  GAP Debt Waiver Addendum agrees to waive or cancel a portion of the debt equal
  to the difference between the Actual Cash Value and Net Outstanding Balance,
  both defined in the Addendum, in the event of a Constructive Total Loss.
  
  On April 3, 2023, we were
  contacted by Ms. *******’s lienholder advising that the vehicle was in an
  accident on March 12. 2023 and considered a total loss.  We advised them of the documents required to
  remit in order to review the claim and sent a letter to Ms. ******* describing
  the same detail.  On April 4, 2023, Ms.
  ******* contacted our office and advised the vehicle was totaled and wanted to
  file a claim.  We advised her that her
  lienholder did contact us already and provided her with the required
  documents.  We corresponded back and
  forth with Ms. ******* and her lienholder trying to collect all of the required
  documentation.  The biggest delay was
  trying to obtain a copy of the police report. 
  For some reason, the police department where the accident occurred wasn’t
  the most cooperative which is unusual. 
  We did finally receive all documents to review.  In our review, it was discovered that Ms. *******
  had a Past due amount of $454.05 at the time of loss and that her auto
  insurance carrier deducted $1,911.00 from the actual cash value settlement for
  condition adjustments.  Unfortunately, the
  GAP Debt Waiver Addendum does not include any installment payment or deferred
  payments that remain unpaid at the time of loss within the definition of Net
  Outstanding Balance.  Additionally, the Actual
  Cash Value does not include deductions for condition adjustments.  Both of these totals were deducted from the total
  amount to be waived which resulted in the $2,411.95 referenced in the complaint
  by Ms. *******.
  
  While we sympathize with Ms. *******’s
  situation, we do process the GAP Debt Waiver claims as fast as we can obtain
  all information to do so.  In this
  matter, we were not notified of the loss for almost a month after the accident
  occurred and we unfortunately experienced an unusual delay from the police
  department with jurisdiction.  Regarding
  the amount waived and any remaining balance Ms. ******* may have, if there were
  not any unpaid payments and her primary insurance carrier would not have made
  deductions for condition adjustments, the settlement amount would have been
  sufficient to clear her balance.
  
  We hope our response satisfies the
  Bureau and clarifies how the claim was adjusted.  Please let us know if you should have any
  questions.

  at the time I purchased the SUV on August 2021.
  
   I was contacted by Ms.
  Freed GAP Claims adjuster on April 4, 2023 requesting several documents
  including the police report. I made several attempts to get the police report,
  April, 5th April 10th and April 18th. On April
  24th I was contacted by the Houston Police Department stating that
  the police report was ready but they could not release it to me. The sergeant
  gave me a direct phone number for Ms. ***** to contact them and request the report.
  I emailed and left a message for Ms. ***** on April 24th letting her
  know that the police report was ready, she then informed me that they had to
  request the police report from MPP’s reporting service. So basically Ms. *****
  could have requested the police report on April 4th instead of
  sending me on a wild goose chase.
  At no point and time was I ever
  late on any payments.

  We regret hearing that Ms. ******* has rejected our response.  The selling dealership forwarded a signed copy of the GAP Addendum and you acknowledged that you had it added GAP Coverage at the time of vehicle purchase.

  Ms. ***** contacted the ******* ** on 4/14/23 and was told the
  report was incomplete.  ******* ** advised Ms. ***** that the vehicle owner would
  need to contact them so it could be completed.  Ms. ***** followed their instruction
  but ended up ordering the report anyway and finally received it on 5/10/23. 

  The March payment coincidentally was due on the same day as the date of loss but remained unpaid so it was deducted.

  I am rejecting this response because:

  We have established that I did in fact purchase GAP coverage that MPP is refusing to pay. I was never late on any payments, the March payment you are referring to was a SKIP A PAY that the credit union allows once a year with no late fees or penalties.

  We regret to hear that Ms. ******* has rejected our second response.  Unfortunately, the GAP Addendum does not cover deferred payments (a payment that has been postponed, skipped, or waived by the Lienholder).  While the lender does not charge any late fees or penalties to the debtor, it has the same effect as a Past Due amount where no principal is applied to reduce the balance.  Again, we sympathize with Ms. *******'s situation but the deferred payment is not covered under the GAP Debt Waiver Addendum.

  We hope our response satisfies the Bureau and Ms. *******'s concerns.

  Purchased the extended gold warranty for my 2018 Chevy Silverado from the ***** ****** ** ******** ** on 11/07/2020. This is a 60 month warranty. I paid $4,000.00 for this extended gold warranty. Contact * ********* In September 2022 I took in the vehicle to the Chevy dealer in Deland, FL due to transmission issues. The Chevy dealer determined that the transmission was faulty and needed to to be replaced. This warranty company put in a used and defective transmission from their junk yard on October 10, 2022. Also they stated that they would NOT honor a 1 year warranty on the replaced transmission which is against Florida law. Florida law states the warranty must be for a minimum of 1 year. May 7, 2023 the used transmission that this company put in my truck which was not even re-built failed and I was getting notifications on the dashboard after driving the vehicle for 5 minutes that ACTION REQUIRED "TRANSMISSION HOT IDLE ENGINE". After idling the engine and having the warning message go away it came back again after another 5 minutes of driving. On May 9, 2023 I had the truck towed to **** ***** Chevrolet in Orlando, FL for an inspection and assessment on the transmission. It was determined that the replaced transmission the warranty company got for my truck in October 2022 was defective and needed to be replaced. The Chevy dealer has had my truck for 2 weeks and this warranty company has still not inspected the vehicle or approved the repair. According to **** ***** Chevrolet this warranty company's parts department is a literally a junk yard. They put in parts they recover from their junk yard. I have been without a vehicle for 2 weeks and it is not determined how much longer it will take for this warranty company to inspect and approve the transmission so I can get my truck back. The warranty company will not allow **** ***** Chevy to put in one of their own rebuilt transmissions, **** ***** will have to accept a transmission from their junk yard as replacement.

  Dear Ms. *******

  we are in receipt of your letter regarding the above referenced customer and ID.  In reviewing our records, we do find that on or about November 20, 2020, Ms. ***** purchased a 2018 Chevrolet Pickup.  At the time of vehicle purchase, she also opted to purchase a vehicle service agreement.  On September 27, 2022, we received a call from a repair facility advising that Ms. *****'s vehicle was in with a complaint of trans shifting rough and has burnt smell.   They advised they wanted to replace the transmission with a remanufactured transmission.  We sent an inspector to verify the cause and extent of the failure and concurred the vehicle was in need of a replacement transmission.  Because of the cost differences, we opted to send in a remanufactured transmission of equal kind and qualify.  The remanufactured transmission cured the problem.  On May 15, 2023 (8 months and 12,000 miles later) the repair facility called and advised that the transmission was overheating and needed replaced again.  We contacted the vendor from which we purchased the transmission and have a replacement transmission being delivered.

  In Ms. *****'s complaint, she states that we refused to honor the warranty on the transmission.  The transmission that we procured was a remanufactured transmission, same as the shop would have replaced with, and not a used transmission.  It was purchased from a reputable company and they stand behind their warranty for the remaining term of Ms. *****'s vehicle service agreement.  Upon receipt of your letter, we contacted Ms. ***** to update her on the replacement and she seemed satisfied with our actions.

  We hope our response satisfies the Bureau.  Please let us know if you should have any questions.

  Dear BBB,
  
  I am writing to file a formal complaint against MPP Co. Inc. regarding the cancellation of my service and the refund request of $4100. I followed the terms and conditions outlined in my purchase agreement but have faced significant difficulties in resolving this matter.
  
  On 04/14/2023, I promptly canceled the service and requested a full refund as per the agreement. However, my attempts to resolve the issue with MPP Customer Service have been met with unhelpful and uninformed representatives. They provided incorrect refund numbers and conflicting information about my service contract. I have attached proof of purchase documents to clarify any discrepancies.
  
  As part of my efforts to address this matter, the dealer provided me with a cancellation form, which I have completed accurately, including all required information and lien holder details. I have made every effort to fulfill my obligations and provide the necessary documentation to facilitate a smooth refund process.
  
  Therefore, I kindly request your immediate attention to this complaint. I would greatly appreciate it if you could thoroughly review my case, considering the proof of purchase provided, and take appropriate action to initiate the refund process promptly. The refund amount of $4100 holds significant value for me, and I firmly believe it is only fair that I receive it back in full.
  
  I anticipate your prompt response and a successful resolution of this matter. Thank you for your attention and assistance in addressing this issue.
  
  Enclosed Documents:
  1. Service contract
  2. Cancellation form
  3. Policy card

  Dear *** *******

  We are in receipt of your letter regarding the above referenced complaint and customer.  We do show that on or about April 13, 2023 Mr. ****** purchased a 2023 Ford.  At the time of vehicle purchase, he also opted to purchase a vehicle service agreement with added scheduled maintenance.  We were advised by the selling dealership that they had recontracted Mr. ****** on a different plan without the maintenance so the cost was going to be lower.  We were contacted by Mr. ****** advising he wished to cancel the vehicle service agreement.  However, when we presented a full cancel refund quote, he disagreed with the total amount because of the cost differences noted above.  The total refund he was expecting was $4100 and we were quoting him a total refund of $1997.  We advised that we could only refund based upon what the dealership had shown as the recontracted amounts paid.  Upon receipt of your letter, we contacted the selling dealership and they verified that while the total cost was originally $4100, the customer was recontracted for different coverage and different cost after the initial sale.  After much review by the dealership, the dealer agreed if we were to refund the total amount of $1997 to Mr. ******'s lienholder, they would issue a check in the amount of $2103 to make up the difference totaling $4100.  As agreed, we issued our check to Mr. ******'s lienholder and the selling dealer issued a check for the remainder of the balance.

  We hope our response satisfies Mr. ****** and the Bureau's concerns.  Please let us know if you should have any questions.

  Dear Ms. *******
  
  Thank you for your response. I understand that there may have been some miscommunication regarding the contract and refund amount. However, I would like to clarify certain points to ensure that my concerns are addressed accurately.
  
  Firstly, during my conversation with ***** *** ******* Director at Westway Ford on May 5th, he clearly stated that there would be no contract resign if it meant incurring additional costs to him. This leads me to question the validity of any contract resigning that supposedly took place on May 10th at the dealership, especially considering the amount mentioned was $1,461, which contradicts my original contract.
  
  Furthermore, I have diligently followed up with MPP on multiple occasions, and each time I have received varying refund amounts. The latest figure provided is $2,103, which is significantly lower than the amount I genuinely paid, which is $4,100. Additionally, I have not signed any second MPP contract form at the dealership, as it does not make sense for me to sign another contract while I am fighting for the return of my original $4,100. This situation creates a perplexing loop whenever I inquire about my refund based on the terms of my first contract. I have attached the itemized amount financed that I paid for your reference.
  
  I have also raised this question in the ongoing email correspondence with MPP, but have not received a response for over a week.
  
  Given these circumstances, I reiterate my strong desire to receive my hard-earned money back in full. I find the interactions between MPP Inc and Westway Ford regarding this matter constantly suspicious. The current treatment I am receiving from both companies is unacceptable, and it seems that my electronic signatures have been exploited, which I strongly disagree with. I have attached all my email communications with MPP for your reference.
  
  I kindly request your assistance in resolving this matter promptly and ensuring that I receive the full refund amount $4100 owed to me based on my initial contract.

  We are in receipt of your follow up letter regarding the above complaint and customer.  We regret to hear that Mr. ****** has rejected our response.  As previously noted, we have issued a refund totaling $1997 based upon the amounts the dealership had shown as recontracted amounts paid.  The dealer has a check in the amount $2103 representing the difference for a total refund or $4100.  Mr. ****** only needs to contact the dealership to make arrangements to receive the additional check.  That check plus the amounts that we have already refunded will total the $4100 he is expecting. 

  We hope that our response clarifies the matter for Mr. ******.

  I am rejecting this response because:

  Dear BBB,
  
  I want to address a distressing situation involving Westway Ford's withholding of my check in the amount of $2103. It is clear to me that their intentions in this matter are questionable and unacceptable. Despite my continuous efforts since April 14th to resolve this issue, the refund remains withheld.
  
  The General Manager of Westway Ford, ****** ******, explicitly stated that the check would only be released once I close the case with BBB and sign a release form. This behavior indicates a deliberate attempt to hold my money hostage through the MPP contract, alongside the signing of various dubious contracts related to the MPP product.
  
  I demand the immediate release of the outstanding balance of $2103, which is owed to me by either MPP or Westway Ford. The method by which this amount is reimbursed is a matter for the involved businesses to determine. my primary concern is receiving what is rightfully mine.
  
  I have attached evidence substantiating the unethical act of withholding my funds, which is an affront to any customer. This evidence should leave no doubt regarding the urgency and importance of resolving this matter promptly.

  We regret to hear that Mr. ****** has rejected our response.  As previously indicated, Mr. ****** chose to recontract the vehicle purchase.  Originally, the vehicle (and Vehicle Service Contract) was being financed through ** ****** ***** ****.  In that purchase agreement, the Vehicle Service Contract was priced at $4100.  However, Mr. ****** chose to have the vehicle financed through his credit union so everything was recontracted.  In the new purchase agreement, the cost for the Vehicle Service Contract (with lesser coverage) was amended to $1461.  He also opted to purchase a Club Plus Vehicle Service Agreement for the amount of $536.  The new purchase agreement for the vehicle, Vehicle Service Contracts and all fees totaled $34,370.13.  We are attaching a copy of that recontracted purchase agreement showing those amounts and a copy of the check from Mr. ******'s credit union in the amount of $34,370.13 verifying that the vehicle and all Vehicle Service Contracts were recontracted for the new amounts.  Our company refunded the $1461 and $536 totaling $1997, which was the amount actually paid, to Mr. ******'s credit union.

  While the dealership has no obligation to do so, they have elected to return an additional $2103 to Mr. ****** as a gesture of goodwill and have made those arrangements with him.
