    Two claims "DENIED" under the Supreme Plan I purchased in May for my 2019 Honda Pilot, which had approximately 39,500 miles at the time. Approximately four months later, after driving about 1,700 additional miles, I took my Pilot to Honda for a recall. During a long trip, I had noticed the vehicle hitting harder over bumps. Honda inspected the vehicle and found that the front struts were leaking oil and needed replacement. Honda also found that the timing tensioner was leaking and submitted a claim to Endurance.

    Strut denial: Endurance stated that the adjuster saw too much dirt and grime on the strut and therefore concluded the leak must have existed before I purchased the plan in May. I find this conclusion completely unsupported. Dirt and road grime do not establish when a mechanical failure occurred, and there was no inspection at the time I purchased the contract proving the struts were defective.

    Timing tensioner denial: Endurance stated that a seal was failing and that this was not covered. I reviewed my Honda maintenance records and there is no scheduled maintenance requiring replacement of the timing tensioner or its seal. I purchased the Supreme Plan specifically for mechanical failures like this, not routine maintenance. Most concerning, when I requested the denials in writing with the evidence and contract provisions supporting them, Endurance told me they did not have to provide written proof and would only give me a verbal explanation.

    After these denials, I attempted to cancel my contract. Instead of simply processing the cancellation, Endurance repeatedly tried to retain me with a credit and cheaper plan. It took approximately 1.5 hours on the phone to get my cancellation request addressed. I believe consumers deserve the coverage they pay for and a clear, documented explanation when claims are denied.

    If I could give Endurance zero stars, I would. In the past, whenever I bought a used vehicle, I always purchased the extended warranty through the dealer. Every single time a car broke down, those third-party warranties honored their promises, respected the contract, and covered the repairs without hassle. Endurance, on the other hand, is hands-down the worst warranty company I have ever dealt with. When you talk to their sales representatives, they make Endurance sound like the absolute best warranty on the market. They promise you top-tier coverage and total peace of mind. But the second you actually need to file a claim, reality sets in: they will look for any loophole, no matter how unrelated to the actual issue, just to deny coverage.

    My check engine light came on recently, so I took the car to a repair shop. The mechanic diagnosed the issue and told me the vehicle needed a new turbocharger. I checked my Endurance contract, and turbocharger replacement is explicitly listed as a covered component. However, when the shop submitted the claim, Endurance denied it completely. Their reason? They claimed I "drove the vehicle despite the warning sign and caused the damage," arguing that I should have immediately stopped the car on the side of the road and called a tow truck the moment a check engine light appeared.

    I have owned cars for years, and I have never heard of someone needing to pull over and tow a car for a standard check engine light—especially when the car is running fine enough to safely drive to a certified shop. It is a completely ridiculous, bad-faith excuse designed solely to avoid paying out legitimate claims. Do not fall for their smooth-talking salespeople. Endurance does not respect their own contracts, and they will leave you paying thousands out of pocket for repairs you thought were covered. Save your money and go literally anywhere else.

    About my policy in January 2026 they told me it covered everything on my car. In my AC start working about a month ago, take it to the shop. They declined. It did not pay to get it fixed. I told me it was not covered under my plan. I was surprised by this. I had to come out my pocket. Myself and pay 3000 when I called the counsel this policy, they put me on a phone with supposed to be a manager. And this was today, August 31, 2026 and he was very rude with me, got an attitude. Very nasty, so to be honest with you all who reading this, I don't want to deal with people like this. Who taking my money out of my account every month and claiming they're gonna cover everything on your car. When something go wrong, if you already talking to me like this on the phone like I'm nothing. So I feel like, is anything go wrong with my car?

    In the future, you're gonna take more money for me. And tell me the claim is not covered. So I think I did the right thing. By cutting ties with this company, so just beware. When I tell you, your claim is denied. And if you try to cancel, they're gonna get an attitude with you. So everything I'm saying is true, and I'm very mad, because I had the ways my money. When I asked, could I get some of my money back? Since I didn't never use it, he told me no I was not gonna get anything back. Wow

    Endurance comes highly rated and my service has been ok the two times I've used it. Recently had to have an evaporator for A/C replaced, cost approx. $3,000 on my vehicle which is a 2015 Nissan Pathfinder, with 125700 miles. They do not pay for everything as advertised, fact! They paid approx. $2200 & I had to pay nearly $800 of out pocket! The initial amount until I called them was only $1100, which they corrected.

    In talking w/ them I learned that the amount they pay is based upon the "wholesale value" of your used vehicle; yet they brag & advertise about how they take care of any vehicle 20 yrs old or less or less than 250,000 miles, which mine is well below and is still got a lot of life in it. Their advertising is not accurate and they should have all exceptions in bold print in their contracts!! So it the amount they pay goes down as mileage/age increases then why the hell doesn't my $171/month do the same.

    I still listen to their ads and they continue to brag about how much and how many things they cover w/ no out of pocket expenses. Plus over a year ago they refused to fix my vehicles tailgate and the only thing the rep would tell me, "it was denied!" They need to correct their advertising concerning older vehicles like mine, but still have, I think 10 years of life left based upon my staying with the scheduled maintenance. They pay a lot to advertised, but they need it to be accurate!! Not able to download my receipt - Service at Coggin Nissan Jacksonville, FL. 8/7/2026 - RO#: ** - Tag#: ** Invoice $2840.00

    I enrolled 3 vehicles with Endurance on April 29, 2025. The A/C compressor on my 2013 GL450 Mercedes failed after 13 years and Endurance denied coverage on replacing the compressor. I don't have any clue how Endurance decided to claim that a seal had failed and, thus, caused the compressor to fail. The auto repair shop called Endurance to explain that was NOT the case, but Endurance made the commitment to not cover the 13 year-old compressor.

    This warranty company is by far one of the best companies I’ve ever worked with. From the start, the customer service was fantastic. The rep listened to all my questions, actually cared about helping me, and made the whole thing enjoyable. As a first-time truck owner, I expected to pay a lot more, but they discounted my plan by over 300 dollars, so I ended up paying only 199 for coverage that went way beyond what I expected. And with my truck already at around 91,500 miles, they still covered me for another 75,000 miles or up to 48 months. That level of protection is incredible. It covers major components like engine, transmission, steering, brakes, electrical systems, suspension, and a lot more, all with just a 100 dollar deductible.

    On top of all that, they threw in an elite benefits package that covers extras like key fob replacement, tires, and windshield repairs, plus, plus, trip interruption benefits if you break down far from home. Overall, I couldn’t be happier with my experience. Between the genuine customer service, the savings, and the peace of mind, I feel like I made the right call. If you’re on the fence, I’d recommend giving them a look and seeing what kind of quote you can get. I’m really glad I did.

    If I could give them a quarter star, I would. This is the WORST company ever! I purchased a warranty for my vehicle because I bought it used from the dealership. As we all know, when you purchase a used vehicle, you don't know what may be wrong with it. I purchased the vehicle in Virginia, and I live in Maryland. The vehicle passed both Virginia state inspection as well as Maryland. The purpose of obtaining a warranty is to cover any unforeseen issues you may have. Unfortunately, the transmission went out on my vehicle a month and a half after having the warranty. When the shop contacted Endurance stating that the vehicle needed the transmission replaced, they sent an inspector out to check it.

    Endurance told the shop to break the transmission down further to see what caused the issue. Endurance denied my claim, stating it was preexisting issues from wear and tear. I only had the vehicle for 4 months so if there was any preexisting conditions, I could not have caused it. Because Endurance asked that the transmission be broken down further, the cost to do so was $2,500, which is an expense that I should not be responsible for because they requested that this be done. I can't do anything further with my vehicle until the $2,500 is paid to the shop for labor. At this point, I still have no vehicle and am paying for a worthless warranty. They have no problem taking your money every month; however, they are quick to deny your claim. I wish I had read the reviews before purchasing this warranty because this seems to be the case with most of the complaints.

    Denied Coverage for 2016 Lexus LX570 Front Lower Control Arm – Extremely Disappointed. Rating: 1 / 5 Stars (it would be lower if a lower option were available). Review: I purchased an auto warranty policy from Endurance expecting reliable coverage for major mechanical repairs, but my recent experience proved otherwise. I filed a claim for our 2016 Lexus LX570 to replace the front lower control arm—a critical mechanical component of the suspension system. Despite submitting all necessary documentation, repair shop estimates, and diagnostic notes, Endurance denied the claim.

    When buying an extended warranty, suspension components like control arms are exactly what you expect protection against as a vehicle ages. Experiencing a flat denial on a essential safety and suspension repair makes me question the true value of their coverage. The process was frustrating, and the denial felt like an attempt to avoid paying out a legitimate mechanical claim. I would strongly advise Lexus owners—and anyone looking for reliable vehicle protection—to look elsewhere before choosing Endurance.

    I started having transmission issues and dropped off my GMC Sierra 1500 at the repair shop a month ago and Endurance has been dragging their feet having the inspector show up two weeks after the truck was dropped off and then another delay was they said they needed a copy of the registration. Why didn't the Endurance guy get it out of the glove box while he was looking at the vehicle.

    Then after I had to go to the shop and make a copy of my document and send it to them. Then the inspector made an accusation that I’m doing something illegal or wrong because he said the account is new. The account is not new. I’ve met the contract obligations of mileage and pay my bill. Bottom line is I’ve been without my vehicle for a month and it’s looking like another two to three weeks before it’s done and the kicker is they still have not approved the claim. Avoid this business at all costs. They take your money but don’t want to do what’s right and do what they advertise….
