Default care repair insurance cmpanies

Has anyone used these repair insurance companies like the US Fidelis?
if so how much do they run and do they honor their claims?
If you have used ones let me and everyone else who reads this know if they are on the up and up.

Thanks

Had one with a different vehicle. Don't waste your time. They are as stated by 4x45.9 a scam. I had to take mine in for repair of the engine and I got the "well you have this deductible and we don't cover those items and this and that" by the time I was done I paid for half the cost of the engine and all the parts that got damaged by the failure. That being said what the hell did I pay for with them except for excuses??!!!!

Fidelity is a good one. Pretty sure its owned by the Moran family which owns southeast toyota. Have done plenty of claims with them through my business with no problems, they pay.

Us Fidelis HQ is about 30min from me, and they have been in the paper and local news for months. Right now over 30 State Attorney Generals are investigating them for fraud and other major offenses. FYI

I have talked to one before to get a quote when my tranny was about to go out and they were more expensive than my repair was going to be. When I spoke to the salesman he basically was trying to intimidate me to buy, Now i'm a 250 lb redneck and can only be intimidated by my wife (every month) this little twrep i wanted to rip through the phone. US Fidelis was one I was wondering about especially with Rusty Wallace as their spokes person I have followed his carreer in Nascar for years thought it might be legit. Thanks any more advice?
