There is no experience yet! I will let you know when my car needs repairs, and if I will have issues from car shield not willing to pay my dealer or any other car shop! I only called to get some additional information, etc.

Keep going Car shield.
December 29, 2024

I'm not sure why I am receiving this message. I didn't contact Car shield?
I was out of town, on an elk hunt. Didn't have much contact with text, email, or phone calls. So what is going on with my account?
I should only have 1 vehicle. And only one address. Thank you

I was contacted by a representative, showing concern about how my vehicle was being taken to the same shop 3×'s for what appeared to be the same problem, she then went on to help me find another shop that accepted carshield she was patient and kind, I think we were on the phone for about a hour or so but she wouldn't give up, we googled and researched, she gave me big sister vibes she was awesome.

Transmission Repair
December 28, 2024

WONDERFUL! From the moment I first called I was taken great care of. Car Shield scheduled my repair appointment; they arranged for a car rental and they kept me abreast of what was occurring. When I picked up my car, the repair bill was $8,600, (rental additional $1,000). My cost?….$108.00
Yippee!

Deceptive practices
December 28, 2024

I was lied to out right by a representative about bumper to bumper coverage (Platinum Protection) and when it came time to utilize coverage I didn't have Protection for a sensor problem and to add salt to the wound I had to pay for diagnostic fee the worst $500 dollars spent. Read this contract before signing any especially the fine print and try your best to read in-between the lines and record your conversations whenever talking with anyone within this company. Left with a disabled car and a $1000 dollar repair. 👎🏽

D'andre, that is unfortunate and we’re sorry for the inconvenience. After further review of your account, it appears the parts that were needed for the repair were not listed for coverage on your contract. We are always willing to review your contract with you, explain the claim process, and address any issues. Please don't hesitate to contact our Customer Service Department with any questions or concerns you may have.

Called Carshield to explain covered insurance on my 2015 jeep. They explained all the coverages and advised what to do and how to proceed with my repairs. After inter acting with the mechanic they sent an inspector to review claim and then approved the majority of repairs,
