    Is anyone currently using them? I've had it with my truck from arrow. My oil cooler went out and they paid 2200 of it as i was not at a shop that uses OEM hours so i paid 2,000...Today i found out all 6 injectors are corrosion at the tips and this dealer wants to replace them. My MPG is just bad and they say this can also be the cause as its over fueling.. They passed the cutout test but they are not in the best shape. I don't wanna put out 6,000 to replace these when they should be covering them.. Anyone else have problems with them?

    Are they some kind of warranty company? Your money would be put to better use fixing your truck out of your own pocket. Unless you like giving away money? It's been posted a gazillion times here but might as well get posted again. Warranties on used tractors are worthless garbage not worth the paper they're printed on.

    Yea its a 3rd party warranty you get when u buy the truck. It covers most major failures in the truck.

    Sure it does. Like I said they lose money when if they pay out on you it's not going to happen. The house doesn't lose.

    They are only good for internal lubricated parts, unless it can be proven that the issue you are having now was a result of an internal lubricated parts failure then they will not cover your issue.

    With a name such as that, you'd think there would be no worry about anything going wrong with your truck. I don't get why people buy into the warranty deal. Even with my girlfriends car, under warranty and I still pay out of pocket for items that are supposed to be under warranty.
    6k is through the roof in my opinion. I'd find a good mom and pop shop or do it yourself.
