So, my boat has been unused on the trailer for a few months and my steering is completely seized, with only a little springy play at the helm. I took the boat into marine max because I had purchased the Passport extended warranty when I bought the boat.
The dealer called me today telling me that the extended warranty company wants digital photos of the parts before they will approve or deny the claim, however, they can't get the pictures without pulling the parts out of the boat, which is most of the labor right there. So essentially they are saying that if want to see if it's covered I have to take a chance. If they deny the claim for whatever reason, I'm stuck paying marine max about $600.00 to replace the steering cable and helm steering rack. They said the parts were $285.00.
Anyone have a similar experience? suggestions? advice?
