any repairs. [redacted]a suggested that Mr. [redacted] purchase the warranty. [redacted] suggests it to everyone that purchases a vehicle from Genesis Autoplex. He had not entered the vehicle information into the system and gave him an approximate cost of $250. Warranty cost differ slightly based on the year, make, model, mileage and features (i.e., turbo). When he entered the vehicle into the system, it came up at a cost of $375. That is why it showed $375 on the contract (See Exhibit A – Warranty Contract). [redacted] informed Mr. [redacted] that the price was higher than quoted, but only by $25 via a phone conversation and he agreed to pay the difference. He was charged $275 (See Exhibit B – Warranty Purchase Receipt), although it cost Genesis Autoplex $375. [redacted] paid the additional $100 out of pocket because he took responsibility for the oversight. That is why the contract shows the true cost of $375. Genesis Autoplex only charged him $25 more than the original estimate. Mr. [redacted] knew this, but decided to give a false statement to Revdex.com and mislead them with his statement. The amount of the warranty was $25 more than the customer was originally quoted. However, the customer could have declined the purchase of the warranty when he was informed it was more over the phone. If what he claims was true, he could have simply requested a refund for the $25. Why did he contact [redacted] the about warranty questions? In particular about the Turbo issue? He is not a representative for the warranty company and should not be considered a subject matter expert. He tried to answer his questions to the best of his ability. Only for Mr. [redacted] to use it against him. [redacted] provided the warranty contract and their phone number. Detailed information is contained in the warranty documentation that was provided. [redacted] had also texted him a picture of the pamphlet (See Exhibit C – Text Message with Pamphlet) showing him the items covered under the warranty before he made a purchase decision. The vehicle was driven for several hundred miles (321 miles) by Genesis Autoplex after purchase from auction and taken on numerous trips and test drives. It was purchased with 165,361 miles (See Exhibit D – Auction Purchase Receipt) and sold with 165,682 miles (See Exhibit G – Vehicle Bill of Sale).
