California,
I bought the extended vehicle warranty(Mechanical Falure Service Contract). The salesman told my wife and I that we were covered up to 5 years or 100,000 miles if anything went wrong with the vehicle. The vehicle blew the long block and a new engine is required. The warranty company says i must pay for a complete engine breakdown to determine if there is a defective part or the warrenty is void. I signed the front of the contract at the time of purchase. I didnt know there was multi-pages that define it as a defective warranty when there is nothing on the front page relating to a defect. I cant find anywhere in the contract that states that i am responsible to pay for a breakdown. I'm thinking about small claiming the warranty and the dealer for misrepresentating of the warranty. Am I full of it or do I have a reasonable chance. Thanks
