Transmission replacement
March 13, 2025

I have a 2017 Genesis G80 with only 37K miles; I was having a transmission problem which, ultimately, was diagnosed as faulty. Why, at 37K miles, I have no idea! I just picked up the vehicle today and it runs like new. The only concern I had when talking with the Car Shield folks initially was that my $100 deductible wouldn't cover the needed replacement cost. Although I took the car to the only Genesis dealer in Las Vegas, when the claim was submitted, their hourly labor costs and time for repair exceeded the standard used by Car Shield. Having said that, I AM VERY HAPPY with the amount that was agreed upon--an out-of-pocket expense of $1,770.

It was not complicated. The representative was kind, knowledgeable, and reasonable. She gave me my opinions and sought to cover all possibilities. It was a very good experience. I hope I never need to cash in on my coverage. If I have to cash in Car Shield's coverage then I will truly know of your integrity.
Thanks

Mission accomoplished
March 13, 2025

Received a letter in mail that my Account needed renewal, so I called CarShield and asked why I received the letter; it did not have my account # one thepaper, so I was asking why I received it. Agent clarified/determined it was a solicitation and was sent in error. So I shredded the letter and that was all.

It took a while to get the approval to get repairs done. They were true to their word and covered it! I was honestly expecting problems, but I had none. Satisfied.

Horrible!
March 12, 2025

This coverage is essentially useless! The plan only covered $99 out of my $700 bill. I had to end up coming out of pocket for the remainder. I will never recommend this to anyone! Totally disappointed.

Tommy, we apologize for any confusion regarding your coverage. After further review of your account, it appears there were differences in the labor rates and part prices that the repair facility used and what was recommended by a nationally recognized labor guide. Please call our Customer Service at 1-800-587-4162, we are more than happy to answer any questions you have and explain the breakdown of cost regarding your claim. We are here to assist you in any way we can.

I ended up not using my car shield because the mechanic could not find a problem with my vehicle. But, when I thought I would need it, I called and the person I spoke with was very polite and helpful. It was a simple process.

Car Mechanics

I took my car to the dealership because a caution light came on. My car was immediately taken care of in a very timely and professional manner. I will certainly give kudos to this dealership to all my friends who will need to have coverage for their vehicles. I will let them know positive things about Car Shield.
