Re: GM factory extended warranty?

The parts just were left laying on the floor and the kids had no money to put it back together again. Here the story gets longer, but the short version is I had to sue them to get them to do what they clearly should have done to start with. Since I'm an attorney, and he was my son in law, and I was pissed, I donated my time. Otherwise, unless there is an attorney in the family, the insurance companies just get away with ripping off people they know can't do anything about it. I would NEVER buy such a policy. Caveat emptor.
Thank you for your insight! I was on the fence when I read your post. I won't be buying any extended warranty now. Reality is I've really never heard of anyone really enjoying the purported benefits of the extended warranty.

Caveat Emptor. Yes sir!
