Steve Hagar Fairbanks, AK

NO, AutoPOM did NOT provide me with "Peace Of Mind" While the POM in autopom may stand for "Peace Of Mind" for others, for myself, it was nothing short of "Promises Of Malarkey", or autoPOMP, that being "Preying On My Pocketbook". Having seen all the Car-Shield commercials over the last year, I decided to do my research, and found that Car Shield had a very low BBB rating, whereas there were many other providers rated higher...so I decided to send some business to autoPOM for my newly-purchased (used) 2009 Dodge Journey, with just short of 100,000 miles on it. Edward B. was the agent I was put in touch with for the sale of the extended warranty, and he was competent and friendly enough. I asked for the plan that provided the most coverage (apparently Powertrain Plus, though I now see there's an "Exclusionary" category), and agreed to the over $3K purchase price, paid over 2 years, providing coverage for 4 years total. I then did the 1000 miles of driving post-policy purchase, followed thru with a Jiffy Lube run for all the fluids, and I was good to go (or so I thought) Fast forward to early last month (Dec 3)...car engine light comes on, and the temperature light at the same time, about a mile after I left home. pulled over, lights went off, turned around and went home, and parked the car until I could get it into the shop on Dec 23. used my AAA for the towing (vs. autoPOM), and in the shop it was. This is where I was put in touch with Alan R....who I believe is an Omega agent. and this is where it goes sideways and gets a bit shady....on December 28, I was asked to send a copy of the most recent oil change records to Alan and a 2nd email address...which I did within an hour. Two ***weeks*** later I get a call from Alan, asking me to send those records. though my email clearly shows that those attachments were sent weeks prior...to both email addresses...having done what I was asked prior, the two week time frame seemed a bit strange/long, to say the least. Longer story short (taking about another week), my claim was denied (after talking to Cori at my shop, who Alan raved about, btw), due to "seal or gasket failure". that was the reason given to Peger Auto. However, all of my seals and gaskets are intact! Apparently, there was a mix of two different coolants 12-18 months prior to my purchasing the vehicle, and it slowly turned to peanut butter in my coolant system soon after my purchase of the vehicle. So where I'm at now is: -----I owe $1400 to the shop for the teardown, and need to get the vehicle off of their property within 2 weeks -----there are $26,000+ in repairs to be made to the vehicle, thru no fault of my own. the ***only*** covered repair, according to Alan, is about $900 for the driveshaft -----AutoPOM has done ***nothing*** for me, right down to even zero alternate suggestions to salvage some sort of value out of my ruined vehicle that they refuse to cover. . . -----Cori, at Peger Auto, on the other hand, has been fantastic in at least giving me some starting points of where to go from here. If I could give AutoPOM zero stars, I'd do so heartily, but I do not believe that is an option. Buyer beware, as when I hear stories about "insurance being a scam", this full experience fits quite neatly into that box. No idea why their customer service is rated an "A" either, as my experience was a far cry from such. My experience: stay away from AutoPOM. they do not care about their customers whatsoever, at least in my instance regards, -Steve Hagar

I first learned of Mr. Hagar's unfortunate situation with his Dodge Journey when I was notified of this review posting. I immediately called the policy administrator and Mr. Hagar to get the details of the claim.

First, it is important to understand that autopom! is the marketer / broker and the policy administrator, a 3rd party, makes claim approval and denial decisions per the terms of the contract (emphasis on the word "contract"). Autopom!'s position as a broker/marketer provides us with zero incentive to see claims denied. We want to see our customer's claims paid.

A vehicle service contract protects your vehicle from unexpected mechanical and electrical breakdown per the terms of the contract. One of the terms of Mr. Hagar's contract under the section titled "Exclusions From Coverage" states the following is excluded from coverage: "For any repair cost due to contamination of any kind".

Mr. Hagar's coolant had become contaminated, apparently due to mixing of two different coolant types which overtime, caused a chemical reaction resulting in a thickening of the coolant which clogged the engine and cooling system causing catastrophic damage. Chrysler has published a Technical Service Bulletin (07-004-120 warning about topping off or mixing coolant types.

This was due to no fault of Mr. Hagar. The incorrect fluid mixup occurred during the previous ownership of the vehicle. Unfortunately, the contract does not state that the cause of contamination has to have occurred during the current owner's ownership - it just states that repairs for contamination of any kind are excluded. In my experience claim denials due to contamination are rare. In fact, Mr. Hagar's was my first.

Due to the age and mileage of Mr. Hagar's vehicle, the Powertrain Enhanced policy was the only coverage plan the vehicle was eligible for. Repairs due to contamination are excluded in all plans we offer regardless of coverage level. autopom! represents multiple policy administrators and contamination of fluids is specified as an exclusion in all their contracts.

As to Mr. Hagar's admonition for buyers to beware, that is good advice. There are scams out there but autopom! and our BBB A+ Rated and Accredited policy administrators are not a scam.

As to Mr. Hagar's statement that autopom! does not care about its customers, well, that is not true. I think Mr. Hagar was referring to the policy administrator not realizing we are two different companies. A little online research will illustrate that autopom! cares deeply for its customers and as Mr. Hagar noted in his review "autopom!'s customer service is highly rated.

I was and am extremely sympathetic to Mr. Hagar's unfortunate situation. On behalf of the customer, I spent several hours making many calls to the claims supervisor at the policy administrator and the service advisor at the repair facility in an attempt to see Mr. Hagar's claim covered. I also had several conversations with the customer. In the end, there was nothing I could do except give the customer a prompt full refund for the entire cost of the policy.

Lessons learned: 1) Mr. Hagar's case reminds us that buying a used car comes with risks and you cannot transfer all that risk to a third party. The reason we exist here at autopom! is to mitigate or minimize the risk of buying a used car. As this case illustrates, a vehicle service contract does not entirely eliminate your risk as certain conditions are excluded from coverage. Read the contract! 2) When buying a used car, along with having it inspected by a qualified mechanic, I would recommend getting the coolant flushed because you just don't know if some well-intentioned technician, at some point in time, has topped it off with the wrong coolant!
