FTC sends second payment to people who bought extended auto warranties
What the FTC says about this program
The FTC is sending a second round of checks to people who bought extended auto warranties from telemarketer American Vehicle Protection (AVP).
The FTC sued AVP, alleging that they made illegal sales calls, pretended to represent car dealers and manufacturers, and made false claims about their expensive bumper-to-bumper auto warranties.
As a result of the FTC’s lawsuit, AVP and related defendants were banned from selling extended auto warranties and paid money to settle. The FTC is now using that money to provide refunds to eligible AVP customers.
The FTC first sent payments in October 2024, which resulted in more than $223,000 in refunds. Because there is still money remaining in the fund, the FTC is sending 9,074 checks totaling more than $186,000 to people who accepted their first payment.
If you get a check, please cash it within 90 days.
