Excellent Service
May 22, 2025

My questions were answered and problems solved. I needed to change my payment method to CarShield
So I called the phone number and told them I needed to change from my bankcard to a checking and routing number. The bankcard was blocked because of fraud from some unknown source. This will be much better.

Misled About Policy
May 21, 2025

In December of 2023, Carshield Rep said my transmission was being exchanged for a remanufactured unit. When the exchanged unit failed again in May of 2023, it turns out upon further inspection, that this was a straight pull out from another vehicle, and was never rebuilt or even opened up for examination. Not to mention Carshield will not cover 100% of the labor expenses at the dealership.

At the time of purchase, a copy of the contract is provided, and it's also explained during the sales call that, at the Administrator’s discretion, repairs or replacements may be made using parts of like kind and quality—including new, used, or remanufactured components. If you have any questions or would like a detailed explanation of the costs associated with your claim, please don’t hesitate to contact our Customer Service team at 1-800-587-4162. We’re here to help and ensure you have a clear understanding of your coverage.

Bull$#*!
May 20, 2025

You insure a vehicle sight unseen. Ask to keep records of any maintenance done, saying that it is very important, and when an issue comes up you deny service, not from lack of anything I did or didn't do (ie previous owners) not keeping up. Pay for a year and told won't cover an engine for lack of maintenance. Never did you ask to see my records. Not only out 2000. 00 but also a truck. Ripoff

Damian, we're truly sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating this situation must be. We always aim to make the claims process as smooth and transparent as possible, and we apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. After a thorough review of your account, it appears the Administrator requested additional documentation due to a discrepancy in the reported vehicle mileage. Unfortunately, we’re unable to move forward with processing your claim until that required information is provided. This step is necessary to ensure that all claims meet the terms and conditions outlined in your coverage. We understand how important your vehicle is and how disappointing delays can be. Please know that our Customer Service team is here to support you and answer any questions you may have. We encourage you to contact us so we can walk you through the next steps and assist in resolving this as quickly as possible. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we're committed to doing what we can to help.

Calling for help
May 19, 2025

I had done confusion concerning who was actually contacting me as the phone number did not match any info I had. Endurance is not listed. I called the Car shield number and a very nice representative explained to me that Car Shield is who actually coordinates the payment of claims for several Companies. She was able to look up my claim and advise me of the status.
