Thanks for calling me an idiot dave. I appreciate it. The vehicle was purchased through Ebay. Please don't knock it till you try it. I didn't have to work with a dealership. Benefit no. 1. The contract I signed does not have a listing of parts that they will/will not replace. I don't know about you, but whenever I go to the Chevy dealer I'm always treated second class so I try to stay away. (Some examples are: 2 weeks wait for an LS1 serp. belt, wanting money up front to order it, inquired about a weatherstrip- was given price on part then sent to body shop to wait again for est to install, etc...) So no, I din't call the dealer and ask if they would work with an extended warranty company. 1str Source claims that they pay with a credit card over the phone. So the claim process is easy. Maybe I'm too trusting but since Ebay hasn't ever screwed me, I figured their reffered extended warranty co. would be ok too. -Stan <davehinznopsamcop.net> wrote in message news:bduj2j$1143ba$1nopsam34476.news.dfncis.de... > In alt.autos.saab sbright <sbrightnopsamail.com> wrote: > > I got ripped on their coverage as well.
