My first experience 😊
February 9, 2025

I was having issues with my radio and Sirrus XM, I called CarShield first and explain my situation. The young lady that helped me was very professional, she listened to my questions and guided me through the process. Once the problem was resolved, I was happy to have my radio working properly. Thank you.

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.

Bryana, we apologize for any confusion. We send out the contract at the time of sale and address on the sales call the required waiting period. Our contracts include a waiting period that must be completed before you can file claims. This is to make sure there are no pre-existing conditions with the vehicle.

Great Service
February 9, 2025

I took my Infiniti QX60 hybrid in the the dealership because my car was jerking. I told the tech that I had Car Shield. He called and was given an estimate. Car Shield paid to replace my transmission and I paid a very small portion plus my deductible. Had it not been for Car Shield, I may have been without a car or would have had to trade mine in with a shotty transmission and gotten pennies for a trade. Glad I have it.

SCAM
February 8, 2025

I have filed 2 claims with Carsheild and both times they have me pay a deductible and 1/2 of what they say they cover. Unless your mechanic shop wants to use cheap parts you will have to pay the difference for good parts. The mechanic was going to have to replace my water pump and CarShield would not even cover the fluids. Be careful, when I signed up they said the engine is covered but when I had to file for a leak they said not internal parts are covered. I would have been better off saving my monthly payments and just paying out of pocket.

Hugo, we apologize if there is any confusion regarding your coverage. We do send out the contract at the time of sale and address on the sales call that at the Administrator's election, repair or replacement of covered parts will be made with parts of like kind and quality, including but not limited to new, used, or remanufactured. The contract does explain that all parts and labor hours are verified per nationally recognized labor guides. We are happy to go over the specifics of the coverage with you. Please call our Customer Service at 1-800-587-4162 if you have any further questions or concerns.

When I brought my van into the dealer to look at the issues I was having, he told me that some of it might be taken care of thru CarShield. He called CarShield & within 24 hours I found out that CarShield approved the work to be done. Absolutely no hassles

Caring
February 7, 2025

After speaking with multiple representatives there's was only one that got things in order. I haven't had my car since December 20,2024. And I still don't. I'm praying that exhausting experience will be my last. I don't wish bad experiences one anyone. As this is my first one with car shield hoping in the future I can have my car back with 72 hrs and 30 days n counting.
Communication still be much better with the option on your list.
Thank you
Just wish I had my car back
