      I bought a used pick up in September of 2017, truck is a 2017 model and had 6100 miles on it when I bought it. I bought a warranty with it, 7 years or ****** miles, the terms were if no claims were filed a complete refund of the purchase price of the warranty would be refunded. I went to the dealership in July to inquire how to start the process, they then told me that the warranty had expired as of March when the truck was "put in service" by the first owner when purchased in April, this was never explained to me at the time of my purchase, this in fact took 6 months off of the warranty I bought. I then told the dealer that I would like my refund as I no longer have coverage the finance department then told me it would be 4 to 6 weeks to process, it took less then 5 minutes to process it when I bought the truck. I called the dealer today 8-22-24 to inquire the status of my refund I was told that they will process refunds at the end of the month. I think this kind of the old "bait and switch". I would like to warn other prospective buyers to BEWARE they want their money up front and make you wait for yours at there convenience find another dealer

      *******, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are truly sorry to hear that you're feeling frustrated with processing of your warranty refund. I want to personally assure you that we strive for this process to be as smooth as possible. The time frame you were given of 4-6 weeks reflects the standard time it takes to process the warranty refunds due to necessary steps involved with the warranty company, service department and finance department since this is not a prorated refund it is a 100% of purchase price refund. We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused for you and if you have any further questions or concerns please reach out to me directly.

      Thank you for understanding.
