Choice Manufacturing & Mepco Finance Vehicle Warranty Class Action Lawsuit

By Kimberly Mirando

 

Mepco FinanceA federal class action lawsuit claims The Choice Manufacturing Co. and Mepco Finance Corp. sell “illusory” extended vehicle service warranties they refuse to honor.
 
According to the Choice Manufacturing and Mepco Finance class action lawsuit, the companies “prey on vulnerable consumers who have purchased used vehicles and need to have some assurance that they will not be burdened with large payments if the vehicle encounters certain specific types of operational and structural failures. Once Defendants have extracted their full contract payment from the unassuming and vulnerable consumer, they refuse to pay for the repair or replacement of vehicle parts or other services, even though such services are expressly covered under the contract.”
 
The Choice Manufacturing warranty class action lawsuit goes on to say that when a consumer “persists in demanding an explanation for Defendants’ failure to cover repairs, replacement or maintenance or parts covered by their [vehicle service contract], Defendant Choice Manufacturing unilaterally terminates the agreement.”
 
The Choice Manufacturing and Mepco Finance warranty class action lawsuit is brought on behalf of a proposed class of all persons who, while residing in California, entered into vehicle service contracts and/or for engine additive products manufactured and administered by Choice Manufacturing and serviced by Mepco Finance from February 4, 2009 through the present.
 
It is seeking actual and statutory damages, full restitution and more for alleged violations of California business law, breach of contract and breach of express warranty.

The case is Jackie L. High v. The Choice Manufacturing Company, Inc.; Mepco Finance Corporation, et al., Case No. 11-cv-5478, U.S. District Court, Northern District of California.

    Mepco is a scam/fraud do not pay this company .. they r a liar. They Took my money. They refused to fix it. They was rude rudest rudest .,they tried to telk car repair place look on internet for the cheapest part around 68 buck for radiator and fan. The part alone cost over 400. It not include the labor. They refused to cover other repair… they won’t cover transmission or new engine.

    We just found out that our warranty company, Great Choice, has filed bankruptcy. Is Great Choice a party to this class action? If so, how do we file a claim? Thank you.
