    Coverage for my car was really awesome. The warranty through Royal Administration covered most of the repairs I needed to get my car back up and running. Good thing it wasn't major either but the convenience of it all to get my car back up and running and the costs being covered was definitely a lifesaver for me. Highly recommended.

    I recently got their policy for my car and good thing too as I also got into a bit of car trouble recently. I woke up one morning and my car just wouldn't start. Good thing I had their coverage so I was able to get it to a shop and had repairs done. I felt confident they would cover most of my repair costs and they did! Such awesome savings instead of having to cover it all out of pocket. The policy has already paid for itself and I've only had it for a few months! Definitely worth getting the policy overall.

      Bought this warranty when I got my used 2018 Ford Escape thinking it'd save me headaches. Had a alternator go bad at like 85k miles, filed the claim and they approved it after sending pics and the shop invoice. Took about 10 days to get reimbursed but hey, they paid most of it minus the deductible. Customer service was ok, guy on phone was kinda short but got the job done. Only gripe is they nitpick everything and ask for a ton of paperwork. It's alright if your car breaks in a common way, but I wouldn't call it great. Probably stick with it for now since it's paid for.

      This policy offers excellent coverage, and I must say I have real peace of mind when it comes to my vehicle. I do not have to worry anymore about my vehicle breaking down on the road, as this service plan covers almost everything. When my vehicle needs attention, the process is simple, and the support team is very quick to respond. With most of the mechanical problems and repairs covered, I can rest assured and drive my vehicle with peace of mind, as I do not have to worry about any sudden expenses. It has been a very reliable solution.

      Total nightmare dealing with this company. I was assured my repair would be covered before authorizing the work, only to be denied afterward for a vague technicality buried in fine print. Every representative gave me a different explanation, and no supervisor ever returned my calls. I paid faithfully each month for “peace of mind,” but when I truly needed help, they stalled, requested excessive documentation, and ultimately refused to honor the claim. I feel misled and completely disappointed. Save your money and look elsewhere for reliable coverage.

      Their warranty covers quite a lot and their support has been more than helpful. Highly recommended. I've had their policy for almost a year already and have no complaints. Price is fair and their support answers all my questions. I even used them recently when my car broke down and wouldn't start and I barely paid anything out of pocket. I really like their consistency and reliability. Not many companies offer this kind of customer service in my opinion.

      I have gas a car maintenance warranty for near 5 years and never filed a claim. This past week my water pump went up on my Volvo and at the same time a coolant hose was damaged. My claim was denied for a water pump because the hose is a noncovered component. I told them no one can say which component failed first but they still denied claim. I had purchased their top plan but needless to say today I canceled because I cannot trust them.

      I received a card in the mail with limited info so I called. I spoke with Brad, who then transferred me to Danielle. I asked what the name of this company was, and she said Royal Administration. She started to discuss the different costs and the great coverage they had. I thanked her, told her that I was not interested, and didn't want to waste any more of her time. Her response: she yelled: "Well, when your car breaks down, don't call us back crying, Baby!" And she hung up on me. Terrible service. I am thankful I did NOT purchase this coverage.

      Buyer beware!!!! I paid on my extended car warranty for about a year. Then my CAS module gave out and the car was completely dead. I called Royal Administrative Services and asked if the cost to replace the module was covered and was told it was. I got a quote and sent it in for approval...was told to send the final invoice in instead...so I had the repair done. Now I'm being told that it was not covered because the plan didn't cover remote controls, key fobs, or keyless components. The CAS module is the vehicle operating system according to the dealership I bought it from, it was not an issue with the KEY! If it was, all I needed to do was get a new key. The salesman who sold me the coverage promised bumper to bumper coverage. What. a. joke. I will add my receipt later as I left it at home and I'm at work. Notice how they just deny w/o listing why.

      I have an active warranty agreement with this company and followed all the steps they outlined to file a claim. Had my certified repair facility call them to verify that the cracked head gasket was covered, and they said it was and he could start the repairs. After the repairs and the paperwork was filed, they came back saying they now want service records. Nowhere in the agreement does it state that service records are required for a claim. They are trying every little trick to avoid paying out on a covered claim.

      They don't deserve any stars or a rate. I got covered for my car thinking it will protect my investment. I was so wrong. It cost me 3,000 dollars. I had to pay for on repairs. One thing I know about doing wrong you will have to pay price for it.

      Put in the claim in July. Now it’s October. Followed step-by-step everything they wanted me to do. But out there inspector after inspector inspected the car said no need for a tear down. They call me. They want me to tear down my engine, pay for it, and then the recent inspector to inspect my engine, been going back-and-forth since July. I just need my refund because they are a scam. They sold me a warranty, not knowing their license was revoked in the state of Illinois. They couldn’t sell or practice in the state of Illinois. It seems like they scammed a lot of people. I don’t understand how they are still in business. I’ve spoken to six different people. Every single person told me something different. It seems like everybody that filed a claim got the same service as me got scammed.

      Great Company to do business with! They are well known throughout dealers nationwide. I'm not big on writing reviews but I knew I had to after my last experience. I was about 8 hours from my house. My car started having issues. I called the number on the ID card, they had someone to me in less than 15 mins. Towed me to the dealer. I was a little nervous being it was my first time actually using the coverage however I ended up getting a rental and they had my car finished the next day after swapping a computer module. It would of costed almost 2800 dollars! Thanks to this fine establishment, I only owed my 100 dollar deductible! Talk about a breath of fresh air. I would recommend this firm to anyone who drives a car!

      They wanted 20 years of documented maintenance records before they would look at my claim. I was told this after my purchase. This was not explained to me on the phone. This is my experience with this car warranty company. You may have a different experience. I took the car to the dealer. The transmission was $5000. I was given a new transmission. My cost was $1800. I would not recommend this company.

      Dear Customer,
      To review your claim, Royal needs your vehicle's maintenance records. Per the contract, contract holder must maintain your vehicle per the manufacturer’s specs and keep all receipts (oil changes, lubrication, etc.). This ensures your service contract's validity.
      We apologize for any inconvenience, but our adjuster must adhere to the contract regulations.

      Thank you!

      Royal Administration Services, Inc. (my extended vehicle warranty) denied my claim for repairs to my vehicle even though I was within the contract stating "required" maintenance to be done on the vehicle. Per the vehicle manual, there is "recommended" maintenance which was also taken care of. This has been an ongoing battle with them since 5/17/2023. I had to get my vehicle repaired as I have to be able to get to and from work whether or not they denied the repair. I accrued the cost of repairs and rental vehicle costs due to a false denial of service in the first place. This totaled out to $3,612.20. I am seeking reimbursement of these repairs and the five days reimbursement out of the full rental fees per my contract. I asked to speak to a manager and was told one was not available with no attempt to have one call me back either. Very disappointing and I would not recommend using this company for ANY warranty help.

      Bought “coverage” on drive train. Engine seized on Audi during coverage period. Filed legitimate claim for drive train repair. Denied due to hitch on a car designed and advertised to tow 7700 lbs. How do you tow without a hitch? This is a total scam. Avoid at all cost. Royal Administration and United Service protection Corporation is a total rip-off.

      I am the owner of a 2011 Audi A8. I am writing as I was wrongly denied coverage on a non working strut which is covered under my Auto Warranty controlled by Royal Administration Services. Background: In May of 2022 I dropped off my 2011 Audi A 8 at German Automotive Service Center in Glendora, CA. This was due to the front of the vehicle sitting very low to the ground. A few weeks went by and the inspector from Royal inspected the vehicle. The replacement of the passenger side strut was approved but the driver side was not nor was the pump for the suspension which is also advised by Audi to be replaced when the front struts are to be replaced.

      The owner of the shop and I were frankly surprised regarding the driver strut not being approved. As it was very clear it had failed (see photos below). The vehicle should sit level indefinitely and not lose pressure in the struts whatsoever if they are operating according to manufacturers specifications. Neither the passenger Nor Driver Side were functioning based on these standards, and the car would quickly lose pressure and not hold pressure on the passenger side and lose pressure within minutes on the driver side. Per the policy this alone would have been grounds for approval of the driver strut replacement. It is also improper and not safe to replace only one strut. There are dozens of articles and my personal calls to several suspension shops (and German Automotive Service Center) which would verify this. Replacement of one strut would make the vehicle lose control at highway speeds.

      The owner of the shop attempted to call Royal several times and was on hold for extended periods. They refused to change their opinion. As this Audi has the specific sports suspension the struts are in short supply. NO store locally has them. Finally a shop was located in Florida who rebuilds them. Both struts were ordered. Audi stated the struts would be $2300 each and take 8 weeks to arrive due to the pandemic shortages that still exist. So the shop in Florida was chosen due to this delay.

      The struts finally arrived in early October. The Driver side strut now, was very clearly not holding pressure and a reexamination by Royal’s inspector was ordered. They denied the coverage again. I became involved and called Autopom! The broker who sold the policy originally. I spoke to Colgan **, who attempted to help. He suggested that I email and the following was sent out on 10/13:

      "Good morning, I am the owner of a 2011 Audi A8. After several weeks of going back and forth coverage has been denied for the drivers side strut. The passenger side was approved. Both sides are faulty and NOT holding air (please see photos below). According to the Audi manual these should hold air almost indefinitely (and not deflate when the car is off, and level when the car is on). The car is sitting on the ground. By definition they are faulty. One is not holding air whatsoever.

      In addition on the A8 it is required to replace both struts as the wear on one strut and a new strut on the other side will dangerously affect the steering and driving of the vehicle. Every suspension shop I have spoken to would NEVER replace one front strut. A simple google search also verifies that replacing one strut over the other is potentially very dangerous. According to the policy a part that is affected by the failed part is covered for replacement and this would also be the case here at the minimum. Though both are clearly faulty. This is a car I drive my two year old in and this is unacceptable. If the driver's side is not approved by Friday 10/14/22 I will have no other option but to take legal action against the underwriter of the policy. Thank you and I look forward to your prompt reply."

      I received no reply to this email. I then called Colgan ** back and he stated I should call Royal on Monday 10/17/22. He suggested that I request the California Claims manager, by the name of Henry. I called and a person named Dennis at Royal Administration picked up the phone. I asked to be connected and Dennis refused. I brought up the points above, and he still refused to connect me. He also stated that they were not responsible for safety issues resulting from one strut being replaced. He became belligerent on the phone. I asked who their agent of service was and he stated ‘I am under no obligation to give that information’ and refused. The phone call ended.

      I inspected the car and took more photos, including the exterior photos and the photos of cosmetic damage caused by BOTH failed struts inside each fender (which showed the strut rubbing against the top of the inner fender. This was present on BOTH sides). The President of Autopom got involved and contacted Henry, Henrys response was provided to me via text by Autopom! Which was a further denial.

      I picked up the car on 10/19/2022 and paid for the other strut and the $200 deductible. (See receipt). Royal’s reasons for denial are that the driver side ‘worked’ or the shop did not demonstrate a failure, this is ridiculous. Royal also refused to communicate with me in writing. They also refused to contact me directly (Henry claimed he contacted me but I received no message and no call). Clearly they wish to merely deny the claim and hope I go away. Their arguments are faulty at best.

      The driver strut was bad, per the policy if a part is not within manufacturers specifications it is covered for replacement. When I dropped off the car in May neither strut was holding pressure overnight, by October both failed. The damage to the inner fender from the wheel and other parts rubbing against it due to a bad strut was present on BOTH sides. Per the policy struts are covered Replacing one strut and leaving a failed strut on the driver side would lead to the car being dangerous and a loss in handling not to mention issues with alignment, etc. At this juncture I am demanding coverage for the Driver Strut and labor totaling $1146.73.

      This company is one of the worst to deal with in a situation when repairs are needed on a vehicle. Communication is non-existent. When the vehicle is taken to the shop, it takes days and sometimes a week to get an adjuster out to inspect the vehicle. They will find any way they possibly can to avoid paying claims. Company lied to me on multiple occasions.

      On my 2nd go-around with this company, the lifters went bad in my Tahoe and they denied the claim on a full coverage warranty because when they turned it on, it wasn't showing the problem. I have now been without my vehicle for 3 weeks, they decided to deny the claim. First for the oil change slips not being signed and now because they couldn't find an issue with the vehicle. I am speaking to company management, adjusters, etc. to get this issue resolved before the vehicle gets any worse and my vehicle returned to me, and I am currently not getting anywhere with them. If you want to continually argue with the company to back their product and pay the bills on warranty claims by all means go with this company. I would highly advise not using this warranty company. I hope this helps anyone avoid making the mistake that I did with entrusting this company.
