Knowledge is power

‘WAS’ interested in buying a car from an independant dealership circa the £10.000 bracket. All their cars have initial AA warranties with the option of extending. Checking backgrounds and all matters relating to a potential purchase I won’t be buying a car from the dealership solely on their choice of warranty options. AA warranties are an exclusion policy (NOT an inclusive one). I’ve checked not only feedback reviews from this site but a host of others. The general feedback can be categorised in to the following.1. Car dealerships - give good feedback as they take their percentage from selling the warranty.2. Some customers leave positive feedback which isn’t relative to the product ie: the sales pitch & not making a claim on the policy.3. The customer - there is an unacceptable percentage of feedback that relates to claim avoidance (either partial or whole) and what appears to be a faceless, corporate and concerted effort to make claims difficult & obstructive to the client. It also appears from reading and researching cases that when a car is submitted for repair, the garages and technicians used are ‘the cheapest’ the warranty providers can find (not the best qualified or approved). So basically your car could end up at some dodgy back street garage being bodged up by Mr. Scarper & crew.So - on that amount of research and findings - an AA warranty is not something I wish to purchase - PLUS my trust in forecourts that use such warranties has drastically diminished.Thankyou for reading my review and hope that this information informs any further decisions you make about any future purchases you make.
