History
When Frank and Bette Piacente started PRco in 1989 with offices in San Francisco, their goal was to provide buyers of pre-owned vehicles with the highest level of security and protection for their investment. But more importantly, they wanted to provide this protection in an environment based on trust and integrity. In 1998 PRco relocated their offices to Walnut Creek, and finally in 2001, PRco moved to its current location in Lafayette. That same year, PRco started to offer GAP coverage to further protect customers in the event of a total loss of their pre-owned vehicles.

Since our beginnings, PRco has focused on the used car market. PRco continues to offer broad coverage for qualified vehicles while maintaining easy to understand contracts.  In 2009, PRco began marketing its PRcoPower Dealer Management System, a fully functional software package to manage used car dealerships.
