AUL Corp vs Complete Car Warranty

Founded in 1990, AUL built their reputation as a dealership-based vehicle service contract provider before being acquired by Protective Life Insurance Company in 2022. Today, AUL-branded contracts are administered through Protective Asset Protection and remain available exclusively through franchised and independent dealerships. This means consumers cannot buy plans directly online, and pricing depends on the selling dealer, vehicle, coverage tier, deductible, and any dealership markup. AUL’s biggest strength is the breadth of their coverage lineup. Their catalog includes powertrain, stated-component, wrap, exclusionary, lifetime, hybrid, and EV, and technology-focused plans. Some products also offer Any Year Any Mileage eligibility, while most plans begin on the day of purchase with no standard waiting period. Benefits may include roadside assistance, rental reimbursement, trip interruption coverage, transferable contracts, online claims submission, and same-day claims payment on approved repairs. However, customer feedback is mixed, with concerns around claim denials, inspection delays, rental reimbursement limits, cancellation complexity, and pricing transparency. AUL may appeal to dealership buyers who want broad coverage options, but reviewing the contract carefully before signing is essential.

Complete Car Warranty is an extended auto warranty marketplace associated with Complete Car LLC that connects drivers with third-party vehicle service contract providers. Public records indicate that the Complete Car Warranty name was in commercial use by 2017, although current company materials do not clearly state a founding year or headquarters. Third-party business listings associate the company with McKinney, Texas.

Rather than offering one standardized set of plans directly, the company helps customers seek vehicle protection from outside providers, with available coverage and contract terms depending on the offer received. Their website highlights unlimited repair claims and the ability to use coverage at dealers and mechanics. Pricing, deductibles, mileage limits, and detailed current plan information are not publicly listed.

Complete Car Warranty is not accredited by the BBB, and recent customer feedback on major review platforms is limited. Older feedback found elsewhere online is mixed, with some customers reporting successful claims and helpful representatives, while others raise concerns about sales practices, coverage expectations, cancellations, and refunds. This review examines these areas in greater detail, including coverage, costs, benefits, drawbacks, and support.
