Car Shield is not accepted everywhere and to be fixed is not covered.
I purchased Car Shield went my extended warranty was over. I didn't have any problems using Car Shield. Their roadside assistance was excellent.

It seems that it took me longer to find someone that honors CarShield or any third party insurance than it would have been to take to the dealer and have it done. Fortunately, I did find someone who takes CarShield and they explained the procedure. The situation cleared itself up and I do know what to do incase something else goes wrong.

Car shield towed my car to the garage and had it repaired in record time

I still have questions concerning the bill. I was charged quite a bit for what looks like the labor.
Calvin, we appreciate the time you took to leave a review. After further review, it appears there were differences in the labor rates that the repair facility used and what was recommended by a nationally recognized labor guide.

This is my second time using my Car Shield plan for "a covered repair". The process was decent and the claim process was handled by the coordinator at the mechanic shop.
Tom, we're absolutely thrilled to hear that! It's wonderful to know that you found our service helpful. Don't hesitate to give us a call if you need anything else.
I buy new cars and usually trade-in my vehicles when the manufacturer bumper-to-bumper warranty expires along with the Power Train Warranty. I retired this year and budge is an issue so I may keep my cars a few more years longer. This is the first time I have ever used Car Shield. I worked with the Car Shield Warranty Specialist on the phone and we negotiated a realistic monthly rate that I could afford. Three months later I noticed some issues and took the vehicle to Ford and had it analyzed. It was identified that I had a Transmission issue. Ford reached out to Car Shield and submitted a Claim. American Auto Shield is the Contract Administrator and the Claim Processor. Car Shield has a very structured set of procedures. I/Ford followed those procedures and once the Car Shield Inspector performed his work, I was contacted by American Auto Shield and was informed that the work would be covered and that they told Ford to order the parts and start the work. I was also provided a Rental Car from Enterprise for 7 days while the work was being performed. All I had to pay upon completion of the work was the $500 deductible. I am so glad I signed up for Car Shield and would recommend them in a second if your original manufacture warranty has expired. Thank you Car Shield for getting my wife's car fixed and her back on the road.
Jim, thank you so much for your review! It's reviews like yours, that let us know how much we help people and how beneficial having coverage really is! We appreciate your feedback and if you need anything please don't hesitate to give us a call.
We called about becoming a first time customer and the representative was very helpful and now we are a carshield customer
Robert, thanks for the review and welcome to CarShield! Thank you for choosing us! We want to make sure you're completely satisfied with your policy, so please contact us with any questions or concerns you may have regarding your coverage.
My car needed an alternator. The business called and they immediately told them to send in details and it was approved. Then o was approved to get a rental while my car was being fixed. You all are the best.
Minnie, we appreciate the fantastic review and are glad we could be of service. If you have any further needs or questions, please reach out!
I was hesitant to sign up because I wasn't convinced the plan would pay out as the advertising and the agent I spoke would said. Expressing this concern to the sales agent, I was told to "not worry." Unfortunately, I did have a claim and the mechanic said that Car Shield had paid for a similar problem for another customer in the past; sadly, they denied my claim (to the amazement of the mechanic) and only paid a portion of the charge. I paid more for my premium over a 2 months than Car Shield paid for my claim. I would have been better off not having the coverage and simply paying for the repairs direct.
Joe, after further review the claim was approved. Any out of pocket costs would be due to the contract deductible and parts that were not listed for coverage. We do go over what is covered with you on the initial phone call and also send you the policy right away to review. Please contact our Customer Service Department at 1-800-587-4162 for further assistance if you have any questions or concerns.
I canceled my CarShield plan and changed my mind about it. The professional who assisted me with reinstatement was understanding and well-trained. Nothing more to add to the description of how she treated me professionally.

I called to inquire about several things in my policy and my CSR was very knowedgable about the policy components, what would an would not be covered and even pointed out sections in my policy to illustrate that fixing the part would be covered as a part of electrical failure coverage, in the policy. I was so happy that she told me this, and she actually sent me a copy of the policy and referenced the pages where a description of the covered approval could be located to share with this skeptical major automotive Service Manager. Way to go. What an exemplary employee who understands and is trained in the lost art of Customer Service. So Refreshing.
Bravo! Bravo!
I'm just waiting now when I take the car in for servicing next month and I tell him it's covered so yes you can give me a loaner as this will take longer than 1 1/2 hrs. Lets's see what he has to say to that.
THanks Car Shield. You not only made my day, you gave me the ammunition to totally mess his day up! This is not me being a prima donna, this man was the most rude and it obvioulsy required an individual discussion with him about custermer loyalty and why our customer serve feedback percentage madder and what kin do internal cultureal changes required change to enform a more effective work tream

Answer: Carchex & endurance. But beware if any car warranty!
Answer: Car Shield only SELLS the policies. American Auto Warranty is the company that administers is the warranty. BBB grades them an 'F' rating & I agree.
