Several of us here, have WarrDirect. No experience with GE.
Some of us have had to use WD with very good results.

Clock is ticking...WD now has a 30 day no cover period, I believe.

I am looking at extended warranty too. Does anyone think Warranty Direct will follow the Warranty Gold footstep to go bankrupt?

How about GE? Is that a subdivision of General Electric? Where to buy it? Does anyone has experience on claims? Some companies like to make excuses of not paying.

Thanks!!

I have researched Warranty Direct and Auto Warranty Broker and find auto warranty to have the best coverage for the $$$$

I had two visits to the dealer and both times the bill (parts & labor) were paid by WD without hesitation. The total cost of claims paid to date exceed the cost of the contract.

Money well spent.

I have W.D., I have had my rear susp. module go ($910) and a window regulator and they were covered both times. It has already paid for itself in just those repairs
