    In January 2022 I signed a contract with Guardian Auto Shield stipulating that for 4 years till **** or ******* miles my car will be covered for most repairs described as Deluxe package .I paid $1000 down payment and for the next 18 months till July 2023 I was automatically billed monthly $327.41 for a total of $6,891.00 I have been calling the company for a service coverage for the last 2 weeks and nobody is answering and now their line is disconnected. My further inquiries found out that Guardian Auto-shield has filed for bankruptcy during the summer of 2023, while still collecting my monthly payments. Now they have collected all my contracted patients of $6,891.00 and left me with no coverage for my car for the remaining 2 years of the contract that they signed and took a responsibility for. I need to be reimbursed for at least half of my full payment to them for only half of the contract coverage provided by this dishonest company that never informed me re their bankruptcy filing and kept collecting my monthly payments.

    I bought an extended warranty through this company. I just finished paying it off and I had to get my water pump replaced. When I called to make a claim I found out they are no longer in business. I paid over $3,000 for this warranty which expires 5/28/2026. What should I do now?

    Purchased a policy and paid on it for almost over a year. Decided to cancel the policy 2 months ago. Told me I would get a refund. Called today, 12/23/2022, and was told I wasn't eligible for a refund. I never used the policy. Why can't I get a refund?

    To whom it may concern; on April 2022 I purchased a new vehicle warranty with Guardian Auto shield. I paid $279 to start and from May 2022 to October 2022 this company took $179 out of my bank account every month. In September of 2022 it took car to be serviced at a ****** dealership and tried to use my warranty on an item that was stated in the policy handbook that was covered, turns out they did not accept my warranty coverage so I called to cancel policy as I no longer needed the warranty. I was told I do not get a refund even though my guardian Auto shield handbook States if I cancel policy I get a full refund. This is robbery of over $1000 of my money i have paid to this company and I have never used this warranty. Help!
