You are not required to get a vehicle inspection when choosing a coverage plan. Keep in mind that pre-existing conditions are not covered.

A pre-existing condition is one that, within all reasonable mechanical probability relates to the mechanical condition of your vehicle prior to contract issuance. Failures that occur or begin to occur before the date of contract are not eligible for coverage under your contract.

Your coverage is active from the inception of the contract.  As noted, Pre-Existing conditions are not covered.

Every auto protection plan or vehicle service contract (VSC) we offer comes with a full 30-day money-back guarantee. Our “return policy” is simple. We consider your first 30 days with a new VSC a “review period.” Take your time, read through your policy, and discuss it with your family. If you decide for any reason that this isn't the vehicle service contract for you, call us at (704) 377-8855. As long as you haven't used your policy during those 30 days, we'll be able to refund your money and cancel your contract.

To keep your vehicle protection plan active, follow these best practices:

• Read and understand your vehicle service contract to know what is covered and what can potentially void your plan.
• Have your car serviced on time by scheduling routine maintenance checks.
• Keep receipts and service records to assure that you have a paper trail of all your maintenance services if you ever need them.

You can cancel your service contract at any time. Your refund will be prorated based on the amount of time/miles left on your contract, minus a small cancellation fee.
