This is a recurring pattern across bank rewards programs where the bank controls both the terms and their fulfillment.

Customers have no practical recourse beyond filing regulatory complaints when dealers contradict the written warranty terms. The opacity of used-car warranty adjudication leaves buyers financially exposed despite apparent coverage.
