Everyone I talked to was wonderful
March 17, 2025

My car died in my driveway. Car shield dispatched someone to give me a jump to see if it was my battery, before I had it towed. It was the battery, so I went and got a new battery. Saved me from towing the car.

Car Service Insurance
February 9, 2025

I purchase service insurance because nothing works forever even your body so on that statement I choose Car Shield for my protection and from the commercials I saw on TV I wouldn't want to be in that position to not have coverage on my vehicle to pay out of pocket for sever service breakdown.

I started my repair process because my dealership did not except car shield. The representatives at car shield made the process easy and understandable and they provided great coaching as I went through a process that I wasn't familiar with. They were respectful, kind and attentive and I appreciate it!

Never had to use it but it gave piece of mind
February 14, 2025

Since I never had to use it, I cant really say how the coverage is. I can say that while I called twice, the second representative was less that polite and helpful.

Keith, we apologize for any delays you have experienced with your recent claim. Upon further review, it appears the claims department encountered difficulties in obtaining an estimate from the repair facility. Additionally, an inspector has been requested to determine the cause of the vehicle's failure. We are always available to clarify coverage details, explain the claims process, and address any issues you may have. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our Customer Service Department for further assistance.

Don't waste your money!
February 26, 2025

Don't waster your waste your money! CarShield made the decision to only replace one coil and leave the other damaged coils in my car until they "officially" malfunction even when car technicians disagreed and suggested replacing all. I have been paying into CarShield since June 2024 and when my car needed service CarShield let me down. The company literally planned to have me on the side of the road due to not paying for what was needed on covered services. Nobody called me to explain even when I asked multiple times to speak with the person who made the decision. I even escalated for the decision to be re-evaluated bc it was obvious to technicians that it wasn't if there would be a problem but when. My car stayed in the shop for 5 DAYS for something that took a few hours to complete, but waiting on CarShield took forever. I am a single female that drives very far to work daily. I am not trying to be freezing on the side of the road and I would expect the company that I pay into would care just as much due to the fact that I am a paying customer. In addition, part of your contract states that I need to provide suggested maintenance to my car based on needs. However, when a trained technician states that I need work done or parts replaced CarShield chooses to ignore it. This does not sit well with me. As a result, you have lost a customer for LIFE. I have nothing good to say to family members and friends that were interested in this company.
