Description

I received a letter in the mail stating that my vehicles warranty was up, and that I qualified for a new warranty. There was no return address and the only contact information given was the phone number, the business name of “ Service Activation Center,” and the “Fl license #G158355” I was assuming this was from the dealership which I had purchased my vehicle, so I called the phone number. The operator then verified my name, the amount of money I owe on the vehicle, and the monthly payments I am making. No other personal information was given. He then explained to me what the warranty covered, and that I would not be charged until January 20th of 2026, and then I would be charged around 160$ every month for 30 months. I then started to think this was fishy, so I asked what company this was through and he did give me a name which I have forgotten. He then stated that their company is the company that I would have gotten warranty through had I purchased my vehicle directly through Chevrolet. I then told him that their price was too much and I was content with the warranty that I got with my dealership. He then tried to lower the price and offer me it again, to which I declined. I then told him that I would have to think about his offer and get back to them at a later date. After doing some research it seems that they are not a real company.
