Thoughts on frustrating situation.

I work at a GM dealer in the parts department and our sales department sells."Ally" warranties on all used cars GM or not. We have great luck with what they cover, the only caveat is they will only pay list price, which is fair.

The customer only owes the deductible,.which is anywhere from $100-$500 depending on the plan they get. What's nice is the warranty is a one time charge not a monthly, like you see on TV. ie Car Shield.

So my advice is to call the aftermarket warranty company and see what they cover and who can do the work. Ours can be taken to any dealer or independente repair shop, nationwide..
