GWC Warranty claim at a Miami repair shop

GWC Warranty tells drivers to take the vehicle to a licensed repair facility that can follow the guidelines of the contract. The shop must send GWC an estimate before any work, and GWC issues an authorization number if it approves. Sprinter Garage near Bird Road handles those steps and shows you the answer in writing first.

Choosing a shop under a GWC contract

GWC's how to file a claim page says to take your vehicle to a licensed repair facility that can follow the guidelines of your contract. That means you can bring it to an independent shop like ours. The guidelines matter: estimate first, wait for the authorization number, and put that number on the invoice. We follow them on every claim.

Common used car claims in Miami

Used vehicles in South Florida see a lot of heat and stop-and-go traffic. Claims often involve transmissions, AC compressors, water pumps and cooling parts, and power steering. Your coverage level decides what is paid. Keep oil change and service records, because an adjuster may ask for them.
