Empire does anything and everything to get your sales, but after filing my first claim, they stated they can not help me, they said the are brokers only, they transfer me to a company called Head Start Warranty Group, which lied about my claim stating I was using my van as a Commerical vehicle without any proof.

Original review Apr 17, 2025
I am writing to formally express my concern regarding the denial of my extended car warranty claim by Headstart Warranty Group. I purchased a vehicle service for my 2017 Ram, and Promaster 2500, which I rely on for to drive back and forth to work.
On 3/30/2025 my vehicle experienced My engine was making some noise, my radio was not working, the doors would not lock, and the battery was draining.

I promptly filed a claim, anticipating coverage as outlined in my contract. However, the claim was denied on the grounds that the presence of work-related equipment in my cargo van constituted commercial use, which allegedly voids the warranty, I told them that my vehicle is not used as a commercial vehicle, and I was a truck driver for a company, when I first bought the warranty I told them that my van business was closed in 2020, so I know longer drive as a independent contractor nor do I have commercial insurance to operate my van as a commercial van, but the adjuster Greg told me they made their decision based on what material I had in my van, and my van was registered to my closed business, but they knew my van was registered to my previous closed business when I bought the plan and Lance Richardson from the company who sold me the plan from Empire Auto Protect at 888-964-****.

They also refuse to give me a denial explanation based on assumption that Im using my van as a commercial vehicle, other than my clothes and truck driver materials.
Upon reviewing my contract, I found no explicit clauses indicating that carrying work equipment would nullify my coverage. The denial appears to be based on an arbitrary interpretation, which I believe is both unfair and deceptive.
My vehicle is still sitting in the dealership with all parts taking out, and the dealership is waiting for payment.
