MotoAssure presents itself as a provider of vehicle protection plans with various levels of coverage, like “Platinum”, “Gold”, “Powertrain”, and “Prepaid Maintenance” plans, for instance. They claim that when your factory warranty ends, you will be able to choose between paying a monthly or a one-off amount for the protection that will cover the incurred repair bills (engine, transmission, major modules) instead of bearing the total cost yourself.
The positive side, according to reviewers:
MotoAssure’s Trustpilot score is 4.0 out of 5, based on a small number of reviews (4 at the time of capture). Customers there said:
“This coverage saved me from exhausting my savings when my car’s fuel pump failed last week!”
“After years of unpredictable repair bills… a single call got everything sorted out. No paperwork headaches or bargaining with mechanics.”
- They are accredited by the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and rated “A” in their profile.
- More importantly, blogs and review aggregators report that there are good customer service experiences for the customers whose claims were accepted—prompt response, responsive staff, and fewer bureaucratic requirements.
What reviewers say: the negatives
- Frustrations come from some customers when their claims are not accepted. This mostly happens because of the exclusion clauses that are sometimes hidden in the fine print, “pre-existing conditions” the customer was not even aware of, or no coverage for parts that are not labor costs and are higher than the service contract covers. For instance: “This has been the worst experience. MotoAssure tried every trick to avoid paying for our auto repair, claiming that the lot was charging too much for the labor time and that every shop around us was.” The feedback buried within the reviews acts as a reminder to the potential customers that the extended warranties do not guarantee protection against all issues—financially or otherwise; they just transfer the burden of losses to the company that sells the warranty.
- The overall experience seems largely dependent on each specific situation due to mixed reviews (some being excellent, some being quite bad) so the factors to consider are: the exact plan that the customer picks, the condition of the vehicle at the time of enrollment, the repair work done, and the interaction of the service/claims department with the repair facility.
Key things to check if you’re considering MotoAssure
- Exclusions and limitations read thoroughly, and that makes a huge difference (e.g., wear and tear, pre-existing issues) in what is not covered.
- Learn about the claims process: how you claim, whether you must repair the car at certain shops, and how much “labor time” or parts are reimbursed.
- Think about the cost vs benefit: The amount you will pay as premiums compared to the possibility and size of a claim. Sometimes, saving yourself may be a better strategy.
- Don’t limit yourself to the company’s site; check independent reviews — see the range of experiences at BBB, Trustpilot, and blog posts.
- Keep in mind that “peace of mind” really exists, but so do restrictions – one reviewer stated it very straightforwardly:
If you are the kind of person who hates surprise bills and doesn’t mind calling customer support to get the claim, then it might make sense. If you like flexibility and transparency, maybe you self-fund.
Conclusion
MotoAssure has a lot of positive feedback, indicating that some clients might have obtained real value from it, and it also gave a good opportunity to escape big repair bills. Nevertheless, the smooth experience is not guaranteed for all customers. For those who want a warranty/coverage plan that is organized and are okay with the terms and possible limitations, it seems to be a good choice. On the other hand, if you’re on a tight budget and want complete transparency or if you have a high-mileage car with existing problems, the advantages might be less significant.
