I bought a vehicle in December 2024, it recently started overheating I took to dealership, results are it needs a new engine as well as some other parts. The warranty covers it however proguard warranty is taking extended amount of time to resolve. It is next to impossible for myself or the dealership where my vehicle is located to get ahold of the adjuster, his name is ***** his extension is 163 off of the proguard number of ************. My vehicle has been at dealership for over a month now and nothing has been done other than the diagnosis the dealership did and Proguard sent an adjuster out to inspect it because they do not feel it needs new engine however it does. They are trying to get out of paying for the engine and only want to do certain parts.Business Response

I've been trying to contact an adjustor at ProGuard Warranty. I called ProGuard numerous times and they redirected my call to an adjustor's voicemail. I initially contacted ProGuard because I purchased a warranty through financing my vehicle, and my car was leaking oil within a week of being purchased. Pristine ************** based in ********, is not the car dealership I bought the vehicle from, but a car dealership that ProGuard told me to drop off my car at so they can do an inspection, then do repairs through them. It has been about a week since I dropped off my car, and I'm beginning to feel frustrated that no one is ******* this. I have had to take Ubers when a family member hasn't been able to assist me, so it is urgent for me to get my car back repaired soon.Business Response

On 1/9/2025, I purchased a vehicle from ******************. As a part of the sale, an extended warranty was included in the purchase. On 2/24/2025, I took my vehicle to a local repair shop to request repairs. I was informed by ****************** that my repairs would be covered under warranty. I was contacted today by ***** ******* Auto and Tire of ************, that the warranty company refuses to complete any of the listed repairs.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:
I am rejecting the claim made by the company. I feel that ProGuard Warranty is not transparent about its policies and procedures, making it difficult to understand how claims are processed and why they might be denied. The company takes the point of view that a part that is not covered is the causation of a defective part that is covered. This stance reduces the ability of any consumer to have any repairs covered through use of tactics that make it difficult to file a claim. Considering this is my first claim and I am not happy, I would rather have the fee that was paid to them refunded in full.

Procured warranty is a 3rd party vendor that sold me a gap warranty through the dealer where the car was purchased. The vehicle was stolen December 2024. As of date, Proguard warranty HAS REFUSED TO PRocess the *** CLAIM in the amount of $1805. This amount was provided to them in a payoff letter sent to them in Feb 2025. The lien holder advised they spoke to ***** who advised it will take 8 weeks. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE FOR ME TO CONTINUE YO PAY A VEHICLE THAT I HAVE BEEN PAYING SINCE IT WAS STOLEN. Had Proguard not denied the claim initially, this payment would have been processed. I am not in a position to continue to pay the lienholder payments while waiting on Proguard to send them the check. If I have to make another payment, I will take PROGUARD TO SMALL CLAIMS COURT ON A REFUSAL TO HONOR A CONTRACT! I have til March 12 to make another vehicle payment while waiting on Proguard.Business Response

I purchased an extended warranty from ProGuard Warranty for my 2013 Tesla ******************* (P85) to specifically cover major EV components, including the high-voltage (HV) battery. I paid approximately $5,200 for this warranty with the expectation that it would provide coverage as stated in their policy.I have successfully filed two prior claims under this warranty:Drive Unit Replacement (2024): ProGuard approved and covered this claim.Bearing Replacement: ProGuard only covered $1,200 of the $1,700 cost from *********, I need to replace my High Voltage battery, which costs $16,000 from *****. ProGuard Warranty is refusing to cover the full amount, stating that my car's value is only $12,000 according to ****** and they will only pay approximately $2,800 toward the repair.Why This Is ******************** Unlawful 1. Violation of Georgia Consumer Protection Laws Under Georgias Fair Business Practices Act (O.C.G.A. 10-1-390 et seq.), businesses cannot engage in deceptive practices. ProGuard never disclosed that previous claims would be subtracted from my vehicles Carfax value to determine future claim payments. This is an arbitrary and misleading policy that was not included in my contract.2. Violation of the ********-**** Warranty Act (15 U.S.C. 2301 et seq.)This federal law prohibits warranty companies from misleading consumers and denying valid claims using undisclosed, arbitrary limitations. Since my warranty explicitly covers EV high-voltage batteries, ProGuard cannot simply create valuation restrictions to avoid paying legitimate claims.3. Arbitrary and Misleading Vehicle Valuation ProGuard claims my vehicle is only worth $12,000, despite the fact that my Tesla Model S P85, with a newly replaced drive unit under Teslas 4-year warranty, is worth closer to $22,000.ProGuards claim valuation process was never disclosed in the policy contract and is being used unfairly to avoid paying a legitimate claim.Business Response

I got in an accident The last week of November 2024 and reported it to my insurance. My insurance and my lien holder and my ******************** were all made aware of this incident. My lien holder and *** said they would communicate to get this claim handled and paid out. Over many weeks *** has not provided assistance in getting my claim handled. My insurance has already paid my lien holder and now they are just waiting on Gap. *** said they didn't even start to process my claim until January 6th of 2025. My loan through my lien holder has now gone to collections bringing my credit down over a claim that should have been handled. Whenever you call them they say because it is a total loss you have to email them but when you email them they just send you an automated email. I have been patient but they are not taking my claim seriously and i need this handled.Business Response

2017 Chevrolet Corvette purchased on 3-1-24 along with an extended powertrain plus warranty from Proguard both sold by ************* Sales, salesperson Amid. Amid assured me that when I purchased the warranty, the car would be fully covered under the powertrain warranty if any issues should occur regardless, to any aftermarket parts that were installed prior to my purchase of the vehicle. On 12-2-24, I took my car to Mayhem Motorsports because the car was not running as smooth as it was, would cut off when making sharp turns and hesitating while driving. On 1-6-25, Mayhem informed me that Proguard had never responded to their request for warranty services. 1-9-25, Mayhem contacted me and said the adjuster came to the shop and looked at the work that would be required to repair the vehicle. 1-10-25, Employee ****, contacted me from Proguard and informed me that the underwriter said the warranty was null and void due to aftermarket parts, longtube headers and harmonic balancer. **** said the underwriter will not honor the warranty due to "after market parts that are related to the issue." I asked to speak with a supervisor and was redirected to whom he said was his supervisor, Claims Adjuster/Examiner, ***** *******. ******* basically repeated the same thing **** said and told me to refer to my warranty and then rudely hung up the phone while I was trying to gain additional clarification from him. I have not had any parts installed in the vehicle since I purchased the car. I only had the vehicle serviced at Chevrolet ********* and they installed a new battery and performed oil changes.Manager and Mechanic, *****, who informed me that the aftermarket parts that Proguard is referring to is not associated with the issue and that the vehicle's camshaft and lifters is what needs to be replaced. Resolution I am seeking is for Proguard to pay for the repairs.Business Response
Date: 02/06/2025
The customer's vehicle was inspected after claim was initiated. The inspector determined that aftermarket parts, including headers, had been installed on the customer's vehicle. The service contract specifically excludes "any mechanical breakdown that or Failure that occurs to or results from non-standard (any component not installed by the original manufacturer)...including but not limited to the use of oversized tires, installation of header pipes, Vehicles lifted above six (6) inches." As a result, the customer's claim was not approved.Customer Answer

I am rejecting this response because:
I purchased this vehicle from the dealership with aftermarket parts already installed without my knowledge along with the warranty from Proguard. Why would the company accept my money for the warranty when the parts were already installed in the car before I purchased the vehicle. Subsequently, the mechanic told me that the aftermarket parts that Proguard is referring to does not have anything to do with the mechanical issues that were reviewed. So how is it that warranty services will not be honored.

I purchased the ProGuard Level 3 warranty. As recommended. It is bumper to bumper. Covers engine and transmission. ***. My car has been to the shop 3 separate times for warranty work that is stated covered under warranty. All 3 times has been denied warranty coverage and have paid out of pocket. There is always some excuse as to why they will not pay for anything. On top of that you are always out of a car for days, but usually weeks on end, trying to even get a hold of their warranty department to get any communication.Business Response

Our records indicate the repair facility refused credit card payment via telephone. Therefore, payment was made by check which required mailing time. ProGuard released payment by mailing a check to the repair facility immediately upon receipt of the invoice. While we understand the customer's frustration, we remain confident that the claim was processed as swiftly as possible considering the circumstances.
