NOTICE: On February 12, 2020, the Pennsylvania Attorney General’s office filed suit against Omega Vehicle Services, LLC d/b/a Delta Auto Protect and its owners for violation of consumer protection laws. The complaint alleges that in numerous instances Delta Auto Protect failed to authorize covered repairs, wrongfully denied covered claims, failed to respond to claims inquiries, failed to refund consumers for contract cancellations, and otherwise misrepresented their business practices. This case has not yet come to trial and the truth of these allegations has not been adjudicated.


Since 2013, Delta Auto Protect has provided affordable extended car warranties throughout the United States. Located in Philadelphia, this company offers 24/7/365 roadside service, transferable service agreements, and Automotive Service Excellence-certified technicians.

Overall Rating: 3 / 5 (Average)

Delta Auto Protect's plans are some of the most affordable in the industry with industry-average restrictions and covered components. Warranties are backed by an A.M. Best "A" rated insurance company. The company offers specialty system coverage including high-tech electronic components and factory navigation systems.

The company's online reputation, however, has much room for improvement. It is rated "poor" by Trustpilot and F by the BBB. Many of the complaints about them concern a lack of customer service, difficulty in contacting them, and refusals to resolve customer disputes unless negative comments and reviews were withdrawn. While complaints about customer service are common in this industry, Delta Auto Protect garners more than their share.

If you are looking for an affordable auto warranty plan, Delta Auto Protect might be the right choice for you, but if things don't go as they should, you may experience frustration in trying to resolve your issues with them.

Delta Auto Protect has an F rating with the Better Business Bureau and a number of negative reviews and comments. The BBB also has an alert on Delta's page that states "It has come to BBB’s attention that the business is requesting that a customer(s) withdraw complaints filed through BBB as a condition of resolving the complaints. BBB does not withdraw complaints under these circumstances." The company's reputation on Trust Pilot is no better and earns it a "Poor" rating. Many customers complain that the company is very difficult to communicate with.

We did work for DAP on a policy holders car. After 30 days, several false promises of payment, and several follow up calls seeking payment, still nothing. After about a month of getting strung along we decided to warn people via sites like this. After the reviews were posted, we contacted DAP again. This time we were told that a stop payment was put on the claim because of the reviews. They would pay us, but only if and when the reviews were removed. They went so far as to give us the cell number and a name to call for one of the sites to have our review taken down. Once they were removed, we did get paid. I'm posting this as a warning to repair shops and consumers alike that this is a... Read More

I've had Delta Auto Protect for 2 years now on my hyundai elantra. Recently my car started acting weird so I took it to my local dealer who ran some tests and found out the rack and pinion on my steering system was failing. My dealer contacted Delta directly and Delta paid my dealer directly over the phone with a credit card. My car was repaired and I was on my merry way in no time. I recommend Delta to anyone looking for a car warranty!

Domonic W. Oklahoma City I purchased a warranty though Delta Auto Protect and was a little skeptical because the price was so much cheaper than their competitors by almost 50%. That along with all there positive reviews.. So I got cold feet and ask for a refund... They simply ask why and gave me my money back within 48hrs..
