False claim coverage
November 28, 2024

My monthly payments for coverage apparently were a waste of money. When my check engine and overheating sensors were going off, and taking into one of your approved bodyshops, you come back with we're not paying for it and there's nothing we can do about it. With no attempts to fix your fault.

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.

Disappointed
November 28, 2024

I pay on my Car Shield monthly, and to say the service were not covered, I can't believe that. Seems like I'm just wasting money.

My credit card I use to pay my Car Sheid bill with was hacked. They let me know that the latest payment hadn't been received. Not only did they let me catch back up without a prenatally, they also let me pay for a 6-month period with the discount.

Satisfied but it could have been better
November 28, 2024

We have been paying for Carshield for years. This is the first time we've had to use their service. The representatives were friendly, but the back and forth with the repair shop was frustrating. The mechanics are the experts and Carshield fought them every step of the way. In the end they did make a significant payment towards our car but we still had a large out of pocket expense.

John, we appreciate the time you took to leave a review. After further review of your account, it appears there are some parts that were not listed for coverage under your contract. Furthermore, 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.

Worth it for peace of mind
November 28, 2024

I had to use my warranty one time and overall the experience was good. They did want to use aftermarket parts for the repair which I understand but I chose to pay extra to get OEM parts installed. It did give me a peace of mind on my Ram which turned out to be a less reliable vehicle than I desired. I ultimately ended up selling it otherwise I would have kept Car Shield.
