Tow truck service
December 3, 2024

My car was VANDALISED and I was in need of tow truck to transfer my car to Ray Skillman West. He was very prompt. He also assisted me in cleaning up the broken glass from the ground from where my car window was broken out. It was raining and he didn't mind. Thanks for your help.

In correct information.
December 2, 2024

I called Car Shield to ask a question about having my brakes replaced. I was told that you would replace brakes. Took my car to the dealership and they replace the brakes for $888.00. They also told me that Car Shield will not pay, I Advise them that I did contact you and was told that you do replace brakes, he called you and was told that you do not pay for this. Why am I paying you, the commercials say, take it to the dealer before it is too late and cost too much. I am a senior and that hurt having to pay that amount out of pocket. This is why I pay you monthly. Very disappointed.

Robert, we apologize for any confusion regarding your coverage. We recommend having your repair facility call our claims department with their diagnosis to start a claim. After further review, the brake pads and rotors are considered to be routine maintenance, which are parts not listed for coverage. You are at a great level of protection and we would be happy to go over the details and parts listed for coverage with you. Please call our Customer Service at 1-800-587-4162 if you have any further questions or concerns.

Monthly payment is steep and …
December 2, 2024

Negotiations with service shop is poor. I had serious next to catastrophic bearing failure. I took my truck to the closest shop. After long negotiations between the shop, Car Shield and me I ended up covering several hundred dollars. I check with other preferred shops and they said the same thing, they will not conceded to the low ball offer and are not willing to use CarShields parts. Everyone in the situation was very citrus but I ended up taking the added expense.
