The Good

  • Wide Variety of Plans
  • Roadside Assistance
  • Certified In-Network Mechanics
  • Provider Benefits

Wide Variety of Plans

Through American Dream Auto Protect, clients can construct a customized protection plan that covers as much or as little of the vehicle as desired. Customers also have the option of selecting one of the following plans: 

Platinum  Gold  Silver 
  • Engine
  • Transmission
  • Cooling
  • Electrical
  • Drive axle
  • Brakes
  • Fuel delivery
  • Steering
  • Navigation/GPS
  • Air conditioning
  • Seals and gaskets
  • Suspension
  • Engine
  • Transmission

  • Electrical
  • Drive axle
  • Brakes
  • Fuel delivery
  • Steering

  • Transmission

  • Brakes
  • Fuel delivery

Not all extended car warranty providers can compete in terms of comprehensive coverage that American Dream Auto Protect covers. Depending on the vehicle needs, clients will have the option to choose what works best for their particular situation. 

Roadside Assistance

When most people think about extended car warranties and what is covered, protection from inflated car repairs and replacement work typically comes to mind. And for the most part, that is what extended car warranty providers will offer clients.

American Dream Auto Protect goes above and beyond to provide that peace of mind for its clients. Roadside assistance is available to American Dream Auto Protect consumers, regardless of the plan a car owner enrolls their vehicle in. 

Certified In-Network Mechanics

Through American Dream Auto Protect, any certified and trained mechanic that has been recognized by the American Society for Engineering Education can do repairs on the vehicle. A common complaint of users with other extended car warranty providers is that it is difficult to find a mechanic in-network to do the repairs. That is not the case with American Dream Auto Protect as any ASEE-certified mechanic qualifies and is in-network.

Provider Benefits

The features and services available through American Dream Auto Protect set the company apart from the competition. Customers who enroll in an extended warranty program through American Dream Auto Protect can take advantage of the following benefits:

  • Transferable — A vast majority of American Dream Auto Protect contracts can be transferred should a customer decide to sell the vehicle to another person. 
  • Consumer-friendly service contracts — Regardless of the plan, American Dream Auto Protect clients will have access to a cancellation option, affordable monthly payment plan, free towing, rental cars, and a money-back guarantee.
  • Pre-owned and used vehicles — Some extended warranty providers raise rates or disqualify customers with pre-owned or used vehicles. That is not the case with American Dream Auto Protect.
  • Multi-car discounts — While multiple cars cannot be put on the same service contract, American Dream Auto Protect will discount monthly costs for clients who enroll multiple vehicles.

The Bad

  • Undisclosed Pricing
  • Make and Model Restrictions

Undisclosed Pricing

Even though clients can customize their extended warranty plan, there are cut and dry coverage solutions available through American Dream Auto Protect. These plans, more often than not, meet the needs of consumers looking for comprehensive coverage in an extended warranty.

Despite disclosing plan and coverage specifics, American Dream Auto Protect has not publicly released its monthly costs for these coverages. Other providers can give more specific pricing information, but those interested in what American Dream Auto Protect offers will have to obtain a quote. 

Make and Model Restrictions

Not all cars qualify for warranties available through American Dream Auto Protect. While other extended car warranty companies may cover any vehicle (at an increased cost), American Dream Auto Protect has some restrictions in terms of makes and models of vehicles accepted under its plans.

Additionally, American Dream Auto Protect has a year cut-off date in terms of qualifying vehicles. Cars older than 2007 will not be eligible for any of the extended car warranty plans offered by American Dream Auto Protect.

The Bottom Line

American Dream Auto Protect provides a number of comprehensive extended car warranty solutions to car owners looking to extend protection measures. Clients who decide to utilize American Dream Auto Protect can take advantage of a number of protection plans that best suit their needs.

All American Dream Auto Protect clients can take advantage of roadside assistance services as well as enjoy access to certified in-network mechanics. Getting an extended warranty through American Dream Auto Protect also means that clients will have access to a number of provider benefits including transferable policies, user-friendly service contracts, and qualification for used and pre-owned vehicles.

Despite offering a number of consumer-friendly benefits, there are limitations to what the American Dream Auto Protect extended warranties offers. Even though there are standard plans available, there are no publicly disclosed costs so prospective customers will have to obtain a quote in order to get an idea of what these extended warranties will cost. There are also restrictions in terms of what cars qualify for American Dream Auto Protect extended warranties.

I recently sold my 2010 Cadillac and needed to cancel my extended warranty plan with American Dream. I expected a bit of a hassle, but the process turned out to be incredibly smooth. Sam C, the representative who handled my call, was courteous, efficient, and genuinely helpful. He walked me through the cancellation and reimbursement steps with clarity and professionalism, making the whole experience stress-free. It’s rare to find a company that treats customers with such respect even at the end of a contract. I truly appreciated the transparency and ease of the process. If you're considering American Dream for your vehicle warranty, know that you're in good hands—especially if Sam picks up the phone!

I paid $149 to start the plan, but then "life" happened - unforeseen dental issues and family illnesses - and had to cancel. Called and spoke with Corey who did everything possible to force me to pay for the coverage and continue the policy. Told him we had family illness (close to death) and the dental issues - he told me $149 wouldn't pay for the travel or treatment I needed. He presented several "what if" situations and tried to convince me not to cancel. I was put on hold for severeal minutes, and when no one picked up the call, I hung up. Called the number on the card and got Sam C, who was extremely understanding and helpful. He canceled the coverage while we were on the phone and said I should receive my refund in 3-5 business days. In the meantime I took my car in to be serviced and had their top mechanic check it out completely. It is in good condition. He also advised me that most of these plans are a waste of money because, if you cannot furnish them with EVERY service job you had had, they will deny the claims. Also there is a deductible for every time you use the plan, AND according to their contract, you have to have preapproval before taking your car in for repairs. If you are on the road on a trip, you may be out of luck period. The review I would give for Corey is '00'. The rate I would give Sam is 5 stars!

Working with Duane T was great. Very professional and thorough. I checked out 4 other companies and overall, American has the strongest credentials for excellent service and customer relations. Definitely a company—and their people—worth looking into if you need an extended warranty. Kind of refreshing that they don’t use high paid celebrities to market inferior products!!!

This morning i was assisted bay an employee of yours. Her first name is Sonia. Let me tell you. Miss Sonia is a wonderful person. She stated that she is from Puerto Rico. I being from the caribbean island of Jamaica, I felt immediately comfortable with her and an island neighbor. She was tender and pleasant and very easy to talk to. I had to be careful and hold my self together so as not to fall in love with her beautifully accented voice. Be sure to treat her right. Thank you American Dream Auto Protect.

Horrible first experience with claim. Warranty department rude not customer friendly. Dealer quoted extra work needed after claim was approved and it was denied had to pay over$900 out of pocket.

I have not used this company as of yet; however, I signed up today. I did my research and found that American Dream is more honest and straight-forward than most other alternatives. I also feel confidence in their ratings and reviews. My representative is Calvin J.. He has been exceptional and very patient, professional and honest with me. He is the reason I signed up. He even went the extra mile and did homework that I gave him to insure smooth transactions in the future. I think anyone should feel safe signing with this company. Note: I have a 2003 Lexus RX in mint condition. Other companies turned me down because of the age, but not American Dream. Thank you, American Dream!

Mark Davis Sun City West, AZ

We had pre purchased a extended warranty policy prior to going to a car dealership from American Dream Auto Protection. Unfortunately the car was not to my wife's liking and the dealership was inflating their prices by adding lines of things to drive up the price several thousand dollars that we did not even ask for.... needless to say we walked away form the deal and won't go back there ever again!!! But Tom M and Sam C both went above and beyond to help us purchase the right policy and also were understanding to fully refund our unused/unneeded policy that we pre bought... Very Happy with them and the services they provide and we are every in need of a auto protection plan warranty in the future I will call on them again!!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

I phoned ADAP to verify some information outlined in the Program Definitions. I was connected with Calvin J. in the retentions department whom treated me with the utmost of respect. He was gracious to listen to my ramblings and assist me with formulating a reasonable plan of action to suit my needs while offering the most comprehensive protection. I appreciate not being treated as a number, not being quoted generalized verbiage from some rote script American Dream Auto Project, Thank you!

I spoke with Sam C and he was very helpful . Unfortunately I had to cancel a policy because the deal on the truck we were purchasing fell through and it looks like it will be a few months before needing another warranty. I will absolutely call American Dream. Rick R was great to work with to purchase a policy and Sam has been amazing to work with as well.

I like the fact that your company seems to be well organized. Unfortunately I was unable to use your services so when I called to cancel my contract, Sam C was very efficient and very polite on handling the matter for me. Next vehicle I purchase, I will definitely give you a Company a call. I will also recommend you to anyone in need of a car warranty.

I like the professionalism, flexibility and honesty of American Dream Auto Protect. The policies are quite outstanding in the coverage offered! I am able to have my car repaired by BMW. My BMW 128i is now fourteen years old and approaching 100,000 miles. The car drives better than it did when I bought it! Understanding that with this mileage, the unexpected can happen possibly bringing hefty repair bills. Having a policy with American Dream Auto Protect gives me the peace of mind to continue driving my much beloved fourteen year old car!

I’ve had a warranty for almost two years but never had a need to use it until today. My car was at the dealership and they were able to submit a claim on my behalf. I needed my car back quickly so I called ADAP to see if the processing of the claim could be expedited and Mark came good for me. Great customer service.
