I Purchased a BMX bike from walmart.com and I also purchased a "1 year replacement plan warranty" which covers the bike broke. The frame bent. I called walmart.com and they referred me to the warranty company which is National Electronics Warranty, LLC. The warranty covers:
Frame and Bearing Surfaces
Seat
Electric Motors
Levers
Pedals
Brake Mechanics (Foot and Hand) Cables
Spokes
Derailleur
Rims
After getting the run around National Electronics Warranty, LLC claim their warranty does not go into affect until after the manufacturer warranty runs out. The manufacturer does not warranty the frame therefor it ran out the day I purchased it! National Electronics Warranty, LLC says no. Their warranty starts 1 year after the purchase date. Since the frame bent during the first year it is not covered therefor I will have to purchase a new frame. She also stated that she has noted my account so if I call back in 6 months it will be treated as a preexisting condition and will not be covered then either. What a ripoff!!! Walmart.com advertises this warranty as "Get long-term peace of mind for your new purchase with a Walmart Bike and Scooter Product Protection Plan". That could not be further from the truth. Now my son is out of a bike.
