I have a warranty through Endurance for my car through Endurance. Contract # ***. The car now needs few repairs done , but the claims are denied without any explanation.The plan booklet I have clearly says Drive axle assembly Front
and engine mount repair is covered but we called to find out why axle shaft claim and. Engine mount was denied , they said only engine issues are covered under this warranty.
The consumer has a stated component coverage. This means that every part that is eligible for coverage is listed on the contract. Any part not listed on the contract is not eligible for coverage.
On 9/12, a representative from *** of Orlando called Endurance’s Claims department and reported failures to the control arm bushings, the TPMS, the tires, CV boots, and rear engine mount.
The control arm bushings, TPMS, CV boots, and tires are not listed for coverage and are therefore ineligible.
The cause of failure to the rear engine mount was cited by the *** representative on a recorded call as “broken due to age and wear”. As the consumer’s contract does not cover wear and tear failures, this repair could not be authorized.
Endurance’s Customer Service manager reached out to the consumer on 9/24 to determine a mutual resolution. The manager spoke to Ms. and she advised that the manager should call back the following day to speak to Mr.. Endurance’s Customer Service manager will be contacting Mr. on 9/25 to reach a resolution.
Complaint: ***
I am rejecting this response because no representative has called us so far. I would like a call back on Thursday 10/04 to help me better explain the policy.
Sincerely,
Deepak
Endurance's Customer Service manager reached out to the consumer and discussed the claim. The consumer indicated his understanding. In the interest of customer service, Endurance will be skipping the consumer's November account payment.
Endurance appreciates the continued relationship with the consumer and is committed to the highest level of customer service.

Endurance apologizes for the delay experienced by the consumer in receiving the necessary release. Upon receipt of this complaint, Endurance's Customer Service Manager reached out to the consumer and, in the interest of customer service, accepted the consumer's verbal authorization to cancel in lieu of the release. The consumer's pro-rata refund will be sent out on 9/20.
Christopher was very helpful, proficient and professional. He quickly recognized the issue and rectified it immediately. I appreciate the time and effort he took to make sure I was satisfied.
I unfortunately needed to cancel my policy. When I called I spoke to a very polite and professional rep by the name of Steve *** He was not pushy at all and very understanding. I highly recommend Endurance as their rates are very reasonable and their customer service is exceptional! Thanks again for your help Steve!
DO NOT MAKE THE FIRST CALL TO THEM. I kept getting mailers from them and decided to get some info. You will not be allowed off the phone by the pleasant voice on the other side. I should have just hung up after multiple times I told them that I wasn't going to make a decision during that phone call, I just wanted information about the warranty plan. After getting a headache I finally agreed to look over the plan that had a 30 day full money back if you decided not to continue with the plan.
BUT you only have 30 days from when you get the plan which is about 1/2 a month later after you called. However, you can look it up on line.
Also, when you are trying to get away from the call you will all of a sudden get a discount for this or that which hadn't been offered before, surprise!
So I looked it over and ended up getting a much better plan from my dealer for a lot less money. So I called to cancel (second time trying to do this). I was prepared for the "I'm just trying to help you get the best plan" so I told them I didn't want to discuss anything, I just wanted to cancel the plan. That wasn't good enough. "What's it going to hurt you to tell me about the other plan. I'm just doing my job here. Let me help you." Just to get off the line, I told her the plan and said now will you give me my cancellation? I even hung up at one point because the woman kept trying not to cancel my plan. She immediately called back. I was ready to go to the attorney general I told her. She eventually said she would talk to her supervisor and finally came back and gave me a confirmation number that my plan was cancelled, yet still wanted to talk me back into it. DO NOT CALL THEM.
Endurance is the administrator/obligor for several vehicle service contract sellers. Although sometimes Endurance does market and directly sell its own contracts, we have no record of interaction with this consumer.
After a couple of weeks of research, I discovered the Endurance Warranty. I did the best homework I could, but being that it was a warranty, I know there are a lot of strings involved. I talked to a nice gentleman, and I purchased the warranty in early June, and the only stipulation was that I had to wait 1000 miles, which I did. About a month after the first payment I stumbled upon good luck and was able to trade in my vehicle. I spoke with the department to let them know what I was doing, and that I needed to cancel my warranty. At this point, it is August 7 or 8th, and I no longer have the vehicle. I talked to a gentleman, and he stated that he was to physically mail me a form, fill it out, and send it back. First, my address was incorrect which was why I never received my contract, but due to the Revdex.com rating, I didn't worry about it. The agent started after I mail back the completed form I would get a check in the mail. The form I received was very generic and vague, with a line stating "Notarized Odometer Statement: (Required to receive a refund, if eligible, per the terms of the contract)." There wasn't a standard notary form so I contacted the Endurance and they started a handwritten mileage would be okay. A couple of weeks later I don't receive a check, so I called back and talked to another agent who tells me that I have to wait at least 21 days to get the check. Today, 09/11/2018, I called and spoke with an agent, I kindly asked what the status of the refund was, and she stated that there wasn't a refund because the form wasn't notarized. After arguing with her for about 20 mins and explaining everything said to me, she said that I should have read the contract, and take responsibility for my mistake, which I refuted she should take responsibility for her agents (she claimed she was a supervisor). I finally spoke with her manager who stated I would get a partial refund.
Subsequent to the filing of this complaint, the consumer contacted Endurance and spoke to the Customer Service Manager, Mr.. The payment has been reversed and the consumer can expect to see it in their account in 5-7 business days.
Upon notification of the continuing complaint, the manager that the consumer spoke to, Mr., reached out to the consumer on this matter. In the interest of customer service, the manager will be issuing a gift card payment to the consumer.
Endurance is sorry for any frustration that this has cause the consumer and is committed to the highest level of customer service.

Alvin was really nice and helped me with my problems for my car. He explained everything to me. One of the best person I know that can get the job done.
Rep Alvin *** and claims Charles *** went above and beyond their job descriptions to fix the problem and get me approved for something that would've cost me easily over $5k at *** of Manhattan. They didn't treat me like a costumer, they treated me like a personal friend.
I wish I can give them BOTH tips and or gifts for their hard work and dedication. Please take care of them both for me.

This company is a big scam!!!! My vehicle has been at *** and GMC for going on 2 weeks now. They faxed over my service records 4 times and I even faxed them myself. After calling them and waiting on hold for 30-45 minutes each time, I was told that they never got the records. Finally after speaking with a guy named James *** he told me to have the service department email him directly. After doing this, I called and they said they finally had them. Once the service department called, someone kept them in hold and hung up 4 times and they were told several different stories from getting transferred to the service department to still not having the records. I cannot understand why someone in the claims dept won't reach out to the service department once the records are received. Avoid Endurance! They are very unprofessional and only scam you.
I took my vehicle into the dealer for service on July 31, 2018. In the process of being inspected by the dealer, they contact Endurance to provide information on the issue with the vehicle (seems engine related). After about a month, the dealer had not contacted me to confirm the issue had been resolved and when I contacted the dealer they indicated that Endurance had denied the claim based on "wear and tear", which is an exclusion under the warranty. I contacted Endurance on this on August 29 and Endurance indicated the determination for wear and tear was based on info provided to them by the dealer (basically saying the dealer said it was wear and tear). On September 5 I went to the dealer to speak to someone in service about my vehicle. The dealer's explanation for why the car hadn't been fixed runs contrary to what Endurance had informed us by phone on August 29. To settle this difference, the service manager got on the phone with Endurance to seek resolution for this claim. The service manager explained to Endurance that they had not determined it was wear and tear and the part Endurance claimed was damaged by wear and tear had not been visually inspected and asked for an inspector to come out to the dealer to visually inspect the vehicle. Endurance indicated the denial for wear and tear stood and would not send an inspector to the dealer. The service manager explained again that the part they are claiming is damaged by wear and tear had not been visually inspected by anyone so their reasoning did not make sense and also indicated it could be another part that was causing the issue. Endurance would not let the service manager speak to a supervisor and indicated the policyholder would have to call back to speak to a manager.
Endurance contacted the consumer and explained that Endurance is not the Administrator of the referenced policy. Endurance is strictly the selling agent of the policy with Interstate National Corporation. Interstate National Corporation is the Administrator of the consumer's policy thus responsible for any claims submitted for coverage. The consumer has been provided the contact number to Interstate National Corporation in order to request the inspection of the vehicle. Endurance advised the consumer to contact the Director of Customer Service at Endurance should the consumer find the need for assistance in dealing with Interstate National Corporation.
Complaint: ***
I am rejecting this response because: the company have advised again that they are rejecting the repair request based on wear & tear and refuse to perform a visual inspection of the part. The part that they are claiming 'wear & tear' has not been visually inspected so they company is hiding behind this reason to deny the claim.
Sincerely,
Maria
Please be advised, Endurance is strictly the seller of the vehicle service contract. Endurance sold the consumer an INDS vehicle service contract. INDS is the Administrator Obligor of the vehicle service contract. INDS administers (approves or denies) the claims and is obligated to pay the approved claims. Endurance plays no role whatsoever in the approval or denial of claims for INDS policies. Page 1 of the consumer’s contract lists INDS as the administrator.
At this time INDS has indicated that the claim will remain denied. As INDS is the claims administrator on this contract, Endurance believes that this complaint is filed against the wrong company. The contact information for INDS is as follows:

***Claims phone number:
Signed up with Endurance, had some trouble with servicing of my vehicle. Contacted Eddie ***, and he was extremely helpful in getting everything sorted.
He was the top-end of customer service and there when you need him.
Steven *** was the best agent ever!!! 14 days ago I traded my car for a new one. Cancelled my warranty, and my auto pay from my bank account. Well they still drafted the money out of my account and as of today told me my warranty was still active. 14 days and 7 operators, 4 hang ups, 2 what do you want me to do about it, and 3 people telling that I did not even have a warranty with them, I finally go Steven *** on the phone. he took the time necessary to find me the system, find that nobody had even bothered to cancel me. He did everything he could to defuse a already horrible situation. By the end of the call. *y warranty was cancelled on a car that was already traded in, the money was arranged to be put back in my account I have to wait 2 weeks ( that is not his fault its the drafting company) He made sure to do everything above and beyond. He emailed me everything every step of the way! This company needs more people like him!! I hope if I ever have to deal with them again! I am fortunate enough to get to deal with Steven ***!!!!

Beware of the endurance warranty company and pay attention buyers who will plan to buy.
I have a terrible experience with Endurance extended warranty and I trusted the endurance and they’re doing like play and fool “scam” In July 2015 (I’m second owner) I purchased 07 *** S550 (78,660 mileage) I checked the *** history about (first owner) 14 services. I tested drive and no sign any problems. 3 years later on June 2018 I reviewed the google of extended warranty coverage for automotive and I see consumer affairs, Revdex.com and other customers rate the warranty and I see endurance warranty is the top quality and rate of the warranty coverage (I purchased it on June 21 superior coverage plan $452 per month for my car) waiting period: 30 days and 1,000 mileage (passed 43 days and passed mileage 1,291) didn’t hope that happen on the transmission slip happen in the highway and brought my car to licensed mechanic shop (after I noticed the warranty and mech guy said found it 2 transmission and torque converter failed. On Aug 6 endurance claims agent ordered tow my car to *** dealership for service and diagnostic 1 week later *** agent called me and said that 2 failed transmission and torque converter like local licensed mechanic guy said it and he tried called to endurance claims more than 15 times per week and endurance claims agent answered it then hang up few times plus hold on the call then disconnect until Sept 6 2018 *** agent spoke with endurance warranty claims agent asked *** to get freeze frame... Sept 7 *** agent sent freeze frame to endurance claims to few hours later *** agent called me and said that Endurance claims turned denied me for transmission and torque converter services! I want to get full refund! Endurance warranty is ripped off!
I appreciate the words of encouragement and I’m glad spoke to you Steve ***,,,Steve says,anything good he learned it from Eddie *** so with that said keep up the good team work Endurance!!
Save your money. This company will lie from every angle to not pay for any claims that are submitted. I HAVE NEVER DEALT WITH A COMPANY THAT HAS SO LITTLE RESPECT FOR THEIR CLIENTS.
I contacted Endurance Warranty on 06/23/18 about establishing extended warranty coverage for my 2012 ***. The representative that I spoke with made the coverage sound to me that this was exactly what I needed. So I purchased it. Also, on the same day I took said vehicle to *** to check out the service engine sensor. When diagnostic test was ran with no codes being thrown.. . They reset the sensor and all was good. Fast forward 2 plus months 08/27/18 I go to start my car and a dragging sound with delayed start happened. I then took it to the *** dealership to have it checked out. The dealership calls me to tell me that the reason for the noise is the Cam Shaft adjusters will need to be replaced along with the Valve Body. Ok, no problem I have an Endurance Warranty that says it covers "CAM SHAFT. FOLLOWERS & CAM BEARINGS, LIFTERS, PUSH RODS, VALVES, VALVE SPRINGS, REPLACEABLE GUIDES, ROCKER ARMS, SHAFTS AND BUSHINGS, TIMING GEAR, TENSIONER & RETAILERS, ECCENTRIC SHAFT AND OIL PUMP." Claim was submitted by dealership, Endurance sent an inspector out. 1 day later dealership called to get approval for "tear down" so the inspector can come out to look at the parts. Approval was given. An answer wasn't given until 09/04/18 that Endurance was not going to cover any parts. I called Endurance and had to hold for over 2 hrs. before someone got on the phone to tell me the reason for the denial is the ACTUALTORS aren't covered & the valve body must have being existing because that couldn't happen in 2 months. The dealership mechanic tech called and told them that the ACTUALTORS are the same thing ADJUSTERS. Then it was we cover the timing gear but not the teeth on the gear. They started the word play game. Endurance was asked to give the part number to the ACTUALTORS but one could not be given because its all it not a different part. I have having to pay for something this warranty claimed that was covered. That price exceeds $7000.00.
This letter is in response Complaint ID: *** concerning the consumer's denied claim for auto repairs. Endurance did an internal investigation of company records into the handling of the consumer's vehicle service contract sales, service and the handling of the claim. Our investigation included reviewing the internal notes as well as interviewing the customer service and claims agents involved in the transaction.
The details of the review are as follows. An invoice from Driver’s *** Complete Auto Repair dated 06/23/2018 was provided by the consumer. This invoice showed the check engine light concern to be pre-existing, including documentation of the same diagnostic trouble codes. The consumer had the issue diagnosed and then purchased our policy the same day. The customer declined repairs. This invoice also shows that the consumer provided incorrect mileage at the time the contract was purchased. The mileage reported by the consumer was 500 miles under the actual mileage at the time of purchase. Upon inspection of the vehicle the repair facility showed the inspector a measurable stretch in the timing chain, and indicated this was the source of the noise, thus the timing chains were declined for normal wear and tear.
In the interest of customer service, Endurance is prepared to offer a refund of the 2 payments currently invested with the company and if the consumer wishes to cancel the policy we will honor that request as well.
Complaint: ***
I am rejecting this response because:
1. I stated in my complaint that I purchased the policy on the day I took it to ***.
2. I wasn't in the car when I gave the mileage for the car but tried to come as close as a could remember. At the time of the noise began in my car and the mileage was clearly over the 1000 miles required by over 3000 thousands miles.
3. If Endurance actually spoke with Driver' *** then they would clearly know that no codes were thrown when I had the diagnostics preformed, Except for the Prendle Switch sensor was bad. Nothing else could be found to be wrong with the car.
4. Endurance declined to repair the Valve Body before they declined the Cam Shaft because they had to actually see the part and that couldn't be done until the motor was open. Still to this day I'm not even arguing about Endurance not covering the Valve Body. I had already decided that I would cover that because I was giving the benefit of good customer service to Endurance. Foolish me. But, to not Cover the Cam Shaft is straight up BS. *** Dealership has shown me the Cam Shaft which is 1 piece, the timing belt is not a separate part by it self. It is all one part that is oil driven. Endurance just admit that this company is a Sy company that DOES NOT stand by their policy. I see complaint after complaint on the same thing that is happening to me to others and Endurance should be ashamed.
Sincerely,
Sharon
My 75 yr mother up for a extended warranty plan with Endurance on May 5th 2018 she made a down pmt. via credit card of 150.00 she subsequently made 2 more monthly pmts via auto deduct for 118.00 in June and July, she decided that the coverages that she signed up for were not adequate coverages and decided to cancel the plan. based on the contract she has the right to cancel plan at any time and if no claim has been filed she is due a prorated refund.
On July 13th I being the son Shawn *** and also on the plan called Endurance and requested to cancel the plan, I was advised by Tony that I would need to fill out a form and mail back with notarized odometer statement. Ten days later July 23rd I recvd the form in the mail both my mother and I signed and notarized the cancellation request and odometer form mailing it back 2 day signature required. On July 25th the form was recvd by Endurance and signed for by a CSR. 3 weeks passed with no response, I then called Endurance and spoke with Jeff who advised they forgot to cancel plan and would rush out a refund by Aug. 26th. As of today Sept 4th we have still not recvd a refund or any communication from Endurance. I spoke with Endurance a total of 6 times in reference to cancelling the plan and was assured each time it was being processed. I feel at this point I am getting the run around and doubtful a refund has or will ever be issued. I feel this company is not holding up to the contract and I will look to seek further action. Buyer beware!!!
The consumer's pro-rata refund was sent out on 8/24/18. If the consumer has not yet received the refund, Endurance requests that he contact Customer Service at for further assistance on tracking.
Endurance apologizes for the delay in processing the refund, and as committed to the highest level of customer service.

On August 25th, 2018 I took my 2008 *** to a AAA car care center. The vehicle was experiencing a loud fan noise and was beginning to rise in engine temperature. It had not quite begun overheating but was very close. In order to avoid damage, and ensure I was covered by the warranty, I took the vehicle into the shop. The mechanics there notified me that the fan clutch has to be replaced. They said they wouldnt know the reason for the failure of the fan clutch until they replace it in order to see if there is further damage to the engine. I asked them to contact Endurance as I had my contract with me and saw that this was a covered part. They contact Endurance in front of me, on speaker phone where the representative asked questions related to the cause of the part failure. Each time that the Endurance Rep asked that, the mechanic said "I won't be able to tell what caused the fan clutch to fail until I replace it." After 20 minutes, the Endurance Rep came to a conclusion that, because the vehicle wasn't yet overheating, the part wasn't covered as it failed due to normal wear and tear. Again, the mechanic tried to tell them that they didn't know if that was the cause or not and needed to replace it in order to determine what caused the failure. The Endurance Rep still said the part failure will not be covered. I paid $685 to have this part repaired even though it was covered. There was no way for the Endurance Rep to have known if the part was broken due to normal wear and tear because the mechanic didn't even know that as she had stated several times during the phone call. I am extremely upset about this situation and have already requested cancellation of my current policy. I would also like to request full refund for the $685 repair that was clearly outlined as covered in my contract.
Upon receipt of this complaint, Endurance performed an audit of the consumer's claim. Endurance discovered a reporting error in the claim and subsequently overturned the denial. Endurance sent a reimbursement check to the consumer in the authorized amount of $412.67. The check was sent out on 9/10/18 to the consumer's address on file.
Endurance regrets this error and is committed to continually providing the highest level of customer service.

Revdex.com Serving Chicago and Northern Illinois Complaint #*** - This complain was filed by me on July 29th, 2018. It brought up your company's disgusting advertising policies created to scam the elderly and otherwise vulnerable with overpriced and unnecessary services by soliciting alarmist letters that give off a false sense of urgency. The company claimed that I was removed from the mailing list. This is the 3rd time I have received your disgusting letters, and the first time since this Revdex.com complaint was supposedly resolved.
As I reported earlier, these letters are full of inaccurate, incomplete, and often completely fabricated information. The are drafted in an alarmist and extreme way to abuse the fear response in the uneducated and elderly. The only people who would respond to these letter are those who do not think critically and do not analyse claims before responding to them. This is a disgraceful practice. I will be submitting this example with the historical information of my previous Revdex.com complaint to the FTC as well as local law enforcement. I will be submitting a new Revdex.com complaint citing what I have cited here.
Take me off of your mailing list. I have no interest in your 'business'. I would never do business with an organization that utilizes deceptive and underhanded advertising techniques. I would never do business with an organization that lies when it states that I am being taken off the mailing list - three separate times over the course of 4 months. You are dishonest, borderline fraudulent, and disregard common decency.
We are sorry for the frustration that Endurance's mail piece caused the consumer. While Endurance did place the consumer on our "Do Not Mail" list as a result of the previous complaint, the most recent mailers had already printed and processed by the time the consumer was added to the list. Endurance will assure that the consumer is on the "Do Not Mail" list and has been since 7/30/18. The consumer will receive no further mail pieces from Endurance. If the consumer receives another mail piece that he believes originated from Endurance, we request that he immediately contact Customer Service at .
Revdex.com:
While they still unapologetically send misleading and nigh fraudulent alarmist letters, I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me so long as they aren't blatantly lying.
Sincerely,
Ben
I have received multiple pieces of junk mail from this company telling me that my car's warranty is expiring, which include an "example invoice" which is obviously designed to try to scare me into paying up (I also don't own a car). This is incredibly unethical and probably bordering on illegal.
We are sorry about any frustration Endurance’s mail piece caused the consumer, and as a result of the consumer’s complaint, our company placed the consumer on our internal “Do Not Mail” database to ensure they do not receive any future direct mail advertisements from our company.
Complaint: ***
I am rejecting this response because: the response does not address the unethical advertising practices that Endurance is engaged in.
Sincerely,
