Q: Acceptance of repair warranties?

asked by on December 27, 2016

I have a repair warranty (MaxCare), that I purchased when I bought my car. I need a repair now, but no one can seem to tell me if your company accepts my warranty or not. The CSA was completely useless, and told me the only warranty you accept is the warranty that comes with any repairs your mechanics perform. I need an answer today, please!
