The extended warranty "contracts" are actually insurance policies and are managed as such. You pay your deductible and the "insurance company" pays the remainder of a "covered loss" (up to a maximum allowable under the policy term).

Some policies provide for the policy holder to select the place of repair, some have specific locations that honor their policy, some will pay for repairs ONLY at authorized locations, some will only allow repairs after specific "adjusters" have verified the loss. There may be other rules that must be met, depending on the terms of the contract.

Just as a State Farm service center won't process Progressive losses and Allstate won't write checks against a loss from a GEICO claim, your specific "extended warranty" has terms that you must meet before the company will pay for repairs. Each company, each type of policy and each "servicing agent" has rules and conditions that you must follow to make a claim.

Read the terms of your specific policy, it should tell you who can do repairs to your RV and how they must document/file the claim for reimbursement. Most don't have restrictions on repair facilities other than that they must be licensed and certified as a "real business". Read your policy to see what restrictions that "insurance company" has placed on the contract they have with you.
