I like how this warranty claim was eventually covered without too much static. However, I wish Alpha would have been more involved at the start to assure the the garage work would be covered instead... See more

Misleading and lies

Dealership upsold this Alpha Warranty Service for a used 2021 GMC Sierra. Did not explain this is a "PART SPECIFIC" warranty. All they said was it covers mechanical, electrical, and powertrain and I shouldnt have any issues with claims. Just had to take my truck in for a park selector switch because my truck leaves a message that says "SHIFT TO PARK" when it's parked and won't turn off for 15-30 minutes. This part I was quoted at $1200. Alpha said it's not listed in the contract. How in the heck would I know what a park selector switch is and why it would not be covered? My truck is basically draining it's battery and they are telling me too bad. What's the point of an extended warranty if it's supposed to make you feel safe, and then you get told you're not safe. This reminds me of the california fires going and insurance policies canceling they're policies. I will be sure to let everyone know in the future about this poor practice when buying a used vehicle.

Dear Mr. Bowling,
Thank you for sharing your experience, and we sincerely apologize for the frustration and inconvenience you've encountered. We understand how disappointing it can be when something unexpected arises with your vehicle, and you feel unsure about your service coverage.
After reviewing your contract and claim, we’ve confirmed that the part in question—the park selector switch—is covered under your Alpha Warranty Service plan. It is listed in the contract as a "neutral safety switch." Unfortunately, the terminology used by manufacturers and repair facilities can sometimes vary, which may have led to this misunderstanding. We completely understand how confusing this can be and regret that this information wasn’t made clearer earlier in the process.
To address this promptly, we’ve already contacted the adjuster handling your claim and instructed them to reach out to the repair shop to offer coverage for this repair. Our goal is to make things right and ensure your truck is repaired without further hassle.
Your feedback highlights an important opportunity for us to improve communication and clarity, both with our partners and directly with our customers. Please rest assured that we’re taking this seriously to enhance our processes and better support valued customers like you in the future.
If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please don’t hesitate to contact our customer service team directly at 800-662-5519. We’re here to help and ensure your experience moving forward is a positive one.
Thank you for giving us the opportunity to make this right.

My son purchase a warranty from Alpha

My son purchase a warranty from Alpha. After 30K miles the cylinder head split a valve seat. Alpha didn't cover the warranty AND gave us a huge run around on paperwork, etc. They denied the claim as we didn't pay for oil changes as we do those ourselves in my family.

A complete waste of $2500. They are not a good company to do business with IMHO.

Excellent experience and coverage!

This was the first time I've had to use the warranty and was extremely happy with the experience! The mechanic had so many really nice things to say about the company. He was on hold for less than 2 minutes when he called in for the approval. By the time my vehicle was done, Alpha Warranty had already asked him where to send his payment. This is nothing like any of the experiences I've had with other companies.

Your approval process is terrible

Your approval process is terrible. The length of time it takes for you to approve a fix is lengthy. I have been waiting for my car for almost a month to be fixed by you guys and I keep getting the same crap it takes 24 to 48 hours for an adjuster to read a claim and each process takes 24 to 48 hours to review this is insane. I have had to take an Uber to and from work. I live 30 miles away one way I have not had my car since November 7. This company is horrible. and now I’m being told that my car will not get its part until next Thursday. That will mean you have had my car down for 30 days.

Dear Michael, we appreciate your position. Being without your vehicle for long periods of time is frustrating. Would it be possible for you to provide some more information about your claim? With just your first name on your review, it makes it very difficult to pinpoint your situation in our system. We take these types of complaints very seriously and would like an opportunity to learn more about why this has taken as long as it has. Please call our Customer Service team at 800-662-5519 or provide your last name and claim number on this review.
