Auto dealers told a Senate antitrust subcommittee that compensation from manufacturers for warranty repairs is inadequate. Warren J. McEleney of the National Automobile Association cited 1962 extended warranties, saying dealers absorb losses and seek offsetting revenue from car sales or service profits. William W.
