ZILLA01 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 i have had my car now for 8 months, kept up all the services sent in the stamped coupon and stuck to their rules about the car, and reciently my engine decided that it had enough and i have blown a ring. I have a warranty with this company that now doesnt want to pay up. (if you read between the lines you will figure it out even if it takes you 24/7). i just wanna know if anyone has had a problem with any of these companies that sell warrantys? what should i do? should i contact consumer affairs or even ACA, Today Tonight. any help or thought guys would be great. cheers Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/115187-vehicle-warranty/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
eMsta Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 hmm, i havent had a problem with my warranty company. But then again the water pump was just a small thing. Id try and get them to pay up again, if not then consumer affairs.

frankxinyu Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 when you read their lines, it says the warrany company reserves the right to not hounor their claims at any time. so it really depends how these dodgy ppl feel i guess. good luck with it! do u mind if i ask which company is this? pm me if you want to. coz im with one company as well and have not made any claims yet.cheers Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/115187-vehicle-warranty/#findComment-2122240 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amaru Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Sounds like the norm for these companies. Youre going to have to prove it failed due to general fatigue/wear and tear. If it failed due to detonation etc youre not going to see a cent.
