Professional All The Way
December 12, 2024
Updated review

I found everyone I spoke to to be professional and helpful. I received a rental car without any issues, and the staff coordinated with the dealership on my behalf. My transmission was successfully repaired, and when I picked up my car, I only needed to pay the deductible. The only concern I have is that the transmission was refurbished rather than new.

Disappointing
November 16, 2023
Previous review

I called about my window motor which they said they would cover; I was also told if the dealer kept my car for more than 4 hours I could get a rental. Well, they kept my car overnight to diagnose it, and when I called about the rental I was told, oh, that's 4 hours or more of labor. Crazy and information I should have had up front. Turns out it wasn't the motor but the master switch on the drivers side and carshield conveniently does not cover that part. I'm thinking of canceling and putting that money in a high-yield savings account. I've had car shield for over 3 yrs and of the 3 times I tried to use it they only covered one instance, a windshild wiper motor.

Adjuster is slow

Difficult process
December 12, 2024

It took several phone calls between myself and Carshield and the mechanic and Carshield to get approval for the repairs I needed. The advertised service is not as great as it let's on. Switching warranty companies!

Thought I was going to receive more money
December 11, 2024

The initial claim was denied when the repair service called. I called and it was covered- but not for the amount I thought it would be- I do realize there was a deductible.
