2012 Mercury 250 pro xs
Sn# 1b885806
I bought this motor brand new in February 2012 and purchased the platinum warranty thinking that I would be covered under normal operating procedures.
I have had the lower unit serviced twice a year with proof the last one being in December 2016. Now fast forward to last
Thursday I take a quick run out and the mirror dies. I get towed back and come to find out the lower unit went out. Ok no problem .......so I thought .......the dealer informes me that the seal went bad which let water in the lower unit and fried the gears .....no fishing line or anything causing fault other than the gasket failing
The dealer then informes me that mercury denied the claim sayin they don't cover seals ...?
How can you deniy the claim for the thing that spins underwater ???
I have done more than the required maintance and now I'm stuck paying for a new lower unit because mercury doesn't offer and or honor a proper warranty
Am I wrong ??
