I am considering purchasing a warrenty thru them.
They have quoted me 2600 for 4 years or 140K miles with a 100.00 deductable.

I tried doing my research on them but I have yet to find anything to review them. It sounds too god to be true.

 

Its a rip off! See if your dealer has a warranty through JMA. I have heard good things about them from my friends that are service writers.

 

I bought my extended warranty from this toyota agency over the phone, It is same warranty platinum plan as offered at Lexus dealership $ 1590.00 for 3 years over my 4 year factory plan and additional 50 k to a total of 100 k and 0 deductable . Is good at any Lexus dealership and is transferable for $ 50.00 if you sell the car.

I have not had to use the new extended warranty, I was on my factory warranty up till Nov of 2008. My car is a 2005 sc 430 purchased in nov of 2004. The dealership where I bought the car wanted 2490.00 for two years more 25 k more and 100.00 deductable. I would shop around and would recomend you call Troy.

• Class Action Filed Against U.S. Fidelis

A class action lawsuit has been filed against U.S. Fidelis in Missouri, adding to the woes of a company repeatedly accused of fraudulent and illegal conduct.

The company offers extended vehicle protection for consumers whose original warranties have expired. Many consumers who pay for the extra coverage assume that it will cover most if not all repairs, as dealer-provided warranties generally do. The problem, according to the suit, is that U.S. Fidelis includes so many exceptions in its fine print that consumers are usually left out in the cold when their cars break down.

The suit also alleges that U.S. Fidelis misrepresented the level of coverage consumers would receive, and pressured them to sign up quickly or risk losing special benefits. Many consumers were told that they were eligible to receive special rates, which never materialized. On top of everything else, customers who asked to see the conditions of the contract were ignored.

The company has had plenty of prior warnings.

In March 2008, former Missouri Attorney General Jay Nixon filed a complaint against U.S. Fidelis for deceptive marketing and violation of telemarketing laws. The suit alleged that, among other things, the company contacted consumers whose numbers were on the federal Do Not Call list. Several other attorneys general followed suit, and a settlement is now reportedly being negotiated with Missouri Attorney General Chris Koster’s office.

Consumers haven’t exactly given the company two thumbs up, either. The Better Business Bureau has received over 1,000 complaints about U.S. Fidelis and its affiliates over the past three years, leading the Bureau to give the company a failing grade.

According to the BBB’s website, that grade is based on the total number of complaints received, how many of those complaints went unresolved, how long the eventual resolution took, and “advertising issue(s),” which presumably refers to the company’s allegedly deceptive marketing methods.

A press release issued by Jay Nixon in March 2008 alleged that the company sent consumers letters warning them that their factory warranties were about to expire, when in fact many had warranties that wouldn’t run out for months. The release further says that consumers who asked for a refund got either nothing or only a fraction of what they originally paid. The company advertises on late-night TV and through direct mailers.

The company was founded in 2003 and is run by Cory and Darain Atkinson, brothers who live in Missouri. It has already cycled through three names, first calling itself Dealer Services and then National Auto Warranty Services, before settling on its current name within the past year. The company’s switch to the U.S. Fidelis name came after Nixon’s complaint was filed, possibly in an effort to disassociate itself from the allegations.

U.S. Fidelis seems to still hold itself in high esteem, despite the overwhelming number of complaints against it. The company’s website touts it as “one of the largest auto warranty companies in the United States” and “a warranty company that is committed to honesty ... and delivers peace of mind.”
