Third-Party Extended Warranty Claim
Scenario overview
I have an extended warranty from 'CNA National' and my 2019 GMC Acadia's transmission is shifting hard. Can you handle the claim?
What the caller is dealing with
When I bought my used Acadia, I purchased a 'bumper to bumper' extended warranty. Now my transmission is acting up and I think it needs to be repaired. I've never used this warranty before. Can you diagnose the problem and deal with the warranty company directly to get it approved and paid for? I really don't want to have to deal with them myself.
