Dreadful

Unbelievable. Rejected claim for failed electrics despite being told by the garage I purchased the car from it would be covered. Explanation is very unclear and it's just a "computer says no" response

I had a warranty of £4000.00 when my car had a major issue after only 30 days. Autoguard have failed to pay the full warranty out and have left me out of pocket to the cost of £2100.00. Why be given a warranty if they wont pay the full amount out.

The day before trading in my car it developed a fault, but would not give the time needed to get the repair authorised, as a result the claim was declined and I paid out of my pocket. Unless time is on your side you are at the mercy of their get out clauses. Even though my claim would have met the criteria, ie a faulty pressure sensor, Autoguard chose to reject the claim.

The worst warranty you can possibly buy

It is one of the least honest, and most greedy warranty company I have come across. Having a 6-month warranty is utterly pointless.

They will not fix any issues listed on the 'premium' cover, even though it's listed on the actual cover policy. Additionally, I gained written diagnostic from my garage so Auto Guard can understand, but they just apply their own logic to a complete false decision to not honour the warranty.

Save your money, and use that for any car repairs, this is pointless.

Can’t Recommend Enough

I bought a 3yr extended warranty with Autoguard nearly 2 years ago and I have made use of their service twice now. On both occasions, my expectations have been surpassed. The key things are:
- good communication
- the phone has always been answered quickly
- Straight forward chat
- Clear instructions
- Cover main dealer labour costs (optional)
- I’ve had no quibble over my parts/diagnosis on two occasions (adblu system, alternator)
- Quick processing and change control
- Quick payment
- Easy simple processes
- my Audi dealer were also highly impressed

Make sure you get clear breakdowns from your garage.
Have your full service history available.
Know your mileage.
Simple as that. Thank you team, don’t let your performance drop. Shout out to Jeremy Welton 5*

AVOID

AVOID - ABSOLUTE WASTE OF MONEY.
Took out a 3 year warranty with them at a cost of £1300.
Faulty Window regulator on Range Rover sport was causing the window to move slowly, grinding and sometimes stopping, then the window dropped into the door.
Rang Autoguard and explained what had happened, said it was covered. They asked to provide photos and vat invoice for part and labour, got it fixed at a local garage to be as cheap as possible, sent photos and official invoice from the garage approx £600.
Then they said sorry it wasn’t covered under warranty as the plastic clips that hold the window to the regulator had broken and that was wear and tear. The garage said the clips had snapped due to the stress of the motor as it was faulty. Told me to look it up is a very common fault with window regulator.
Then after chasing the warranty company someone came back to say they would finally ‘make a contribution’ towards the cost but didn’t make any further contact.
Such a scam - stay away from Autoguard.
***Youve now come back and asked for the number plate, NHZ55, let’s see if you do anything.
THIS IS THE 3rd UPDATE ON THE POST NOW AND STILL NO CONTACT FROM AUTOGUARD - please read the reviews before buying as you will see most are red in the past month.
My claim has now been taken up by the Motor Ombudsman.

Scam Warranty

I really wouldn’t bother with this warranty, waste of time. Supposed to be peace of mind but just weasel out of paying for repairs. Very drawn out frustrating claim process as well, complete joke. I now had to buy parts on eBay and fix myself. Not recommended at all.

Hi Richard,

I can see on our system that the repair has been approved for the bonnet catch & associated labour.

Please get back in tough with our repair team to discuss further.

Great customer service!

The adviser I was emailing, Carl Searles, was excellent. He replied so quickly, explained things for me, then chased up another department for me straight away.

I will say I am rather annoyed that my repair is almost one month away, and the fact the excess fee was never mentioned when I took this warranty out, otherwise this would be 5 stars!

Wriggled out of paying when they should

Vehicle developed a knocking noise when turning and a vibration when accelerating after owning the car for a few weeks, nothing when we bought it, it turned out to be a driveshaft and they are common to just go, however this company used their age related clause to wriggle out of it even tho driveshafts are listed as their coverage! The van is 2019 and immaculate! You think you are safe buying with warranty but it’s all lies!

Hi Hannah,

We’re sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.

Your recent repair request was declined as the fault was due to gradual deterioration of performance of a component in line with the age and mileage of the vehicle.

We understand this can be frustrating, but we aim to be clear and transparent about what is included within the plan.

Each repair request is reviewed on a case-by-case basis, so should you have any questions or concerns in the future, please do get back in touch.

Kind Regards,
