I'm going to list items that were covered and paid for by my warranty. If it's for a non-covered repair or the purchase of normal wear items like batteries, tires, brakes, etc, I will not be including it in this list. I will list the issue, remedy, and total cost of the repair. You can subtract $100 from each claim for my deductible. I will update this list periodically as I have more claims.
1. 2-20-15: Replacement of gearshift lever which my wife broke off: $562.70
2. 6-2-15: Whining noise coming from engine, transmission shifting harsh. New idler pulley installed, as well as MB remanufactured transmission: $7395.35
3. 8-20-15: Check engine light on and ABC dampener very noisy. Vacuum hose replaced and new pulsation dampener on ABC pump installed: $733.54
4. 2-16-16: Excessive vibration during cold weather and running loud. Replace 3 motor/transmission mounts: $923.68.
5. 2-27-16: Check engine light came on and car running rough. Installed left side ignition coil: $1849.75.
6. 10-21-16: One horn and washer pump not working. Installed new parts: $630.94.
7. 5-23-17: Driver's window not working. Tested and performed update of door control unit: $330.00
8. 11-7-17: Homelink not working & engine making jet engine noise on shut down. Replace rear view mirror and replaced air injection pump: $3512.90
9. 12-11-17: ABC malfunction light comes on occasionally, fluid leak, and car makes creaking noises all the time. Replace ABC pump, replace turbo coolant line gasket, replace lower control arms and ball joints. $7817.35
Total claims paid to date: $23,756.21.
My responsibility: $900.00
Final mileage at last repair: 48,500

Quality shield protection plan offered by Porsche. It appears to be under written/supported by Safe-Guard Products Int'l and the Safe-Guard Warranty Company.
When I was digging around for information on them I found out that Goldman-Sachs has a large interest in the company. Goldman tends to back companies that are solid and will make them money.

How many miles on your car? You may still be able to purchase MB coverage through a Benz dealer if the car is still under warranty.
