Princeton MINI Road Hazard Protection?

I purchased my mini back in September. The finance man talked me into the Hazard Protection Plan through Millennium, which covers windshield replacement repair, wheel replacement etc. I received a letter today stating that Princeton Mini is now known as Crown Automotive and no longer participating with the Millennium Group. Just wondering if anyone else purchased this protection plan from Princeton Mini or am I the only sucker out there!

If you have any ideas how I can get my money back .please let me know.

They offered it to me, but the one they offered me only covered the wheels and tires...I specifically asked about the windshield and they said no. So I assume it was the Crown Automotive one. It was horrendously expensive too.

All of that stuff is worthless. 9/10 times it's cheaper to just pay by the incident.

Call the warranty company. They can tell you how to cancel, maybe with a refund. If not call the dealership and speak to the General Manager as him to help you.

What’s going on at Princeton MINI/BMW, I called the dealership today about the hazard protection plan and also called five other times in two days about getting service done, they take my name and number and no one calls me back. Is this normal for them?

not looking good?

just went to Princeton mini website and got this:

"We are sorry, but this site is temporarily out of service."

Actually it looks as if princeton has been bought/merged or something with crown auto. if you go to http://www.CrownAuto.com/ you see it lists the two mini dealerships one in princeton... I am guessing that there are new owners and that could be the problem. maybe stop by there and see if you can talk to some one.
