    Carchex covered most parts of the car for an equitable price. We negotiated it out for mileage vs. price. The rep was very knowledgeable, very friendly, and very willing to work with me. The only thing was they told me that I would be receiving information at home in regards to the plan, but that was two weeks ago and I haven't got anything yet.

    I had purchased a vehicle and needed extended coverage. I looked online and CARCHEX was rated high. I did an online quote first and they called me with the quote. I didn't have my information with me at that time but I called back the next couple of days and got the coverage. The representative was very professional. He considered the year and the mileage of the car, and that my daughter's driving it. He asked me how long she would be driving it and I said four years. So he was actually able to tailor the plan to four years but the monthly payment he gave me was still a little bit high. But then, they broke it down and spread it over a couple more months. So the total payment is still the same. There were no added charges and they were able to lower the monthly payment, which was good.

    I was overcharged for the warranty offered at the dealership, so I wanted to see if there was a cheaper option that offers the same benefits. I researched online and called a place and then CARCHEX offered me a better warranty for a little bit more. I really like the representative I worked with. He was really great and easy to talk to. And he had all the information that I needed. He also made sure I already cancelled my other warranty, and he did a good job in giving me time to check on that.

    A vehicle protection plan gives me real peace of mind and the pay-as-you-go plan of Carchex sits better with me and is transferable, which is a win-win all by itself. Also, their rep was wonderful. I got the impression straight up that he was being honest and professional but caring at the same time.

    CARCHEX was a no-brainer with the amount of mileage on my vehicle and the coverage that they were offering. What they covered was a whole lot better than what the bank offered. The bank offered only 60000 miles for $3800. Working with their protection specialist and his manager went very well. He gave me an extended payment plan at a lower price.

    I just purchased my car and was paying it off. It’s a beautiful car and it's fairly new, and so I wanted to make sure it’s covered. I went with CARCHEX and the specialist that I dealt with was wonderful. He explained everything to me. At the time, I wasn’t quite ready, and then he called me back to follow up. I thought that was great and it was a perfect timing for him to call me up, due to my mileage was almost getting close too. It was great to know the coverage and how it works. It gave me a little ease in purchasing a luxury vehicle without carrying a note. I got a great extended warranty with CARCHEX and it's a great purchase. It was one rated without the scamming. AAA, as my insurance carrier, had advised me to be careful. There are scam companies out there that don’t carry coverage. But I'm very satisfied with CARCHEX and I’ve already recommended them to others.

    The CARCHEX salesperson that I spoke with was upfront and I truly believe he was honest and loved what he was doing. I was satisfied with him overall. I bought this car not knowing that I should have gotten an extended warranty. Still, I found out I needed it in case something goes wrong with the car. This vehicle protection plan is very valuable and keeps me from paying so much out of my pocket. It’s easier to come up with $100 than $3,000 or $4,000. Give CARCHEX your first choice.

    I read all the good reviews before purchasing this warranty but in hindsight they seem to have been very misleading. As I started reading over their coverage on my car I came across this heading, "WHAT IS NOT COVERED". Going down this list that was nearly 2 pages long I began to realized that this warranty was only gonna work under very precise conditions, for example: A MINI Cooper with a burnt valve would cost me $3000+ to fix out of pocket and it is a very common parts failure in the model year of the car I own and that isn't covered by my specific warranty plan. When I tried to cancel, it was nearly impossible to get in touch with anyone.

As a retailer of Vehicle Service Contracts, we take great pride in providing full disclosure of the coverages we offer. In review of your plan, our records indicate you were provided with a 30 day money back guarantee so you could review the coverage to ensure it met your needs. A digital copy was emailed to you the day of your purchase and you accessed the records multiple times. A hard copy of the coverage was also mailed to you for review.

    Thank you for taking the time to review the coverage. As for the "What is not covered" section of the contract, this is a part of all Vehicle Service Contracts including Exclusionary or "Bumper to Bumper" coverages. It is always important to review these exclusions when purchasing a Vehicle Protection plan.

    With regards to your request to cancel the coverage, our records show an email with the cancellation instructions was sent to you on 5/31/2018 with the coverage cancelled later that day. A full refund was issued back to you same day on the card used to purchase the coverage.

    I've had very good success using the extended warranties I've had for my last three vehicles. I purchased a jeep and I want to drive it for at least another year. Although I haven't had many issues with it, I thought of getting an extended warranty to be on the safe side. So, I went ahead and searched around and found CARCHEX. The rep I talked to was very honest, sincere and wasn't pushy. I had a bunch of questions for him and he was very quick to answer and he didn't have to stumble around to get them answered. He was trying to get me go ahead and sign up by paying and I told him to call me back because I didn't have the mileage and the bin. I hope I don't have to use the warranty since it's lock-in terms and it's only a one-time deal.

    I just bought a used car and I looked into getting the standard auto warranty for it to make sure I was covered. I googled the top five auto warranty companies and CARCHEX was on top. I talked to the gentleman rep of CARCHEX to purchase a protection plan from them and it went very smoothly. I explained to him what I wanted and we discussed the options and what was most cost-effective for what I needed. The bumper-to-bumper coverage would have been ideal, but it was too expensive. It was more than the value of the vehicle. So, I ended up going with the Powertrain Plus plan, which seemed like a good fit.

    I'm very pleased with CARCHEX. I bought my car three years ago and then I purchased the warranty from them about six months after I bought the car. The CARCHEX rep was very helpful, friendly and understanding. I have since used the warranty once for repair and it went real good. I was taking my car in for something else and a thing came up on my Verizon Hum, saying it had a transmission, the switch tail was out, saying it wasn't working right. So, I took it into the Honda dealer where I bought the car from and then they called up CARCHEX and got arrangements to have the dealer do the repair. All I had to do was pay the $100 deductible and it went smoothly. The car has been working fine since then. It's very reasonable for the premium coverage. And when you need it, CARCHEX has been very helpful to get it all set up.

    My car's warranty was expiring and so I wanted to get extended coverage for the car considering the high cost of out of pocket repair if something were to go wrong with it. I called the top three providers that I got through a Google search on my phone at the time. CARCHEX had the quote that worked the best for me, as far as the amount of coverage and the amount of money that they wanted. So I went ahead with purchasing it and the representative made the process easy. She was very cordial, answered all of my questions and explained things very well. I had to go to the bank to deposit money into my account to pay for the downpayment for the warranty and she stayed on the line with me and explained to me all the questions. She did a good job and was very easy to work with. I would definitely recommend them.

    I didn't have an extended warranty for my truck and the plan I had just went out. I started looking for a different warranty and CARCHEX popped up. Purchasing the protection plan from CARCHEX was great. The person I spoke with was very knowledgeable about the program and he explained everything to me. He was a nice man, gave me all the right information and assisted me very well. Having a vehicle protection is very valuable. You never know what you might come across.

    Having a warranty on my vehicle is very valuable. When something will go wrong, I can get it fixed. And since my manufacturer warranty was about to run out, I looked for an auto warranty. I liked the price of CARCHEX. Their rep explained everything to me more than once and I had a great interaction with him.

    They were quick to setup my service and take my money but I called 5 times or more in one day within my 30 day time frame to cancel for a full refund and it's impossible to reach a human unless you're buying this program. Each and every single call either ended with a messages stating the extension was not valid or listening to a guy talk about the program only to be routed to a voicemail. I'm not a picky or hard to deal with customer/person but when you don't answer my calls when I've paid for something I become extremely cautious.

    The next step is to contact Chase Bank and file a complaint and get my money back that way. I originally thought I was getting a terrific deal with these guys until I went through Progressive Auto Insurance and found out about Direct Warranty through Progressive... I got 5 years for $99 a month and 100,000 miles. CARCHEX charged me $162 a month for 50,000 miles... Overpriced. I also was able to get a few more extras with Direct for less money than CARCHEX. Please people do your research and watch out what you're getting into. These people love your money but not to talk with you if they don't have to.

    I purchased a used car and I wanted to make sure that I had coverage so I decided to go through CARCHEX. They had good reviews so I went with them. However, our experience has not been very good. CARCHEX debited my account after they told me that they were refunding my money because it says that it is totally refundable, but they did not. I also had trouble getting the bank to do it and had to go through all kinds of hoops to get my money back. They need to stand behind what they say and mean what they say and not just give me a really nice song and dance story, and then not get my money back to me. We are not talking a lot of money. I’m talking like $135. But for the whole thing, I don’t want it. As far as I’m concerned, I don’t recommend CARCHEX at all.

    I went online, looked at extended auto warranty companies and spoke at length with their representatives. Then I entered into Dodge Nitro and the guy sent the paperwork. I signed it but I hadn’t sent it back to them for another warranty company. Then I went against them and went to CARCHEX instead because the guys there were a little more informative. They had a good idea and knowledgebase on what the warranty entailed, and that was comforting. Also, CARCHEX’s coverage included wear and tear, where others waited for a complete failure and breakdown, so that was very attractive.

    Getting set up with CARCHEX was easy, too. I filled out the application and made sure I gave them the right miles of the car. Then I gave them money and they promised to fix my car if it breaks down. I’ve been screwed by another warranty company before, Fidelis, and hopefully, it doesn’t happen again. Also, I’ve spoken to my sales rep at CARCHEX and he sent me an email and gave me his direct contact information. So, if I had an issue or problem, I could reach out to him and that’s different than what I’ve had when I had the Fidelis account, so that personal side was helpful.

    All in all, having the protection plan is important and I’m paying a little over $5000 to protect the future issues if they may arise. And if I’m gonna keep a car for a longer period of time, and I don’t intend on getting another one in the next three to five years, then I find the plan vital, at least to protect my interest. I could gamble and not get it at all and just pay when I have a problem, but why do that if I can buy it to take care of the problems?

It was about four days later when CARCHEX called and they were $2,000 less than the one I had talked to previously. It was that much of a difference and the more the rep went on it, he had all the coverages I wanted. Purchasing the vehicle protection plan from CARCHEX was easy. The protections specialist that helped me set it up was good. It’s idiotic not to have a vehicle protection plan and I wish I had done this before.

    I was buying a used vehicle and for the cost of the vehicle, it makes sense to protect it from future loss. CARCHEX was recommended to me and initially, they were cheaper for what I thought was equal or better allowances in the policy. It turned out that the third party vendor that they use happened to cover a handicap modified vehicle. They were able to cover more as far as the modifications go.

    The specialist was very helpful, knowledgeable and explained everything. I was talking to the initial representative’s manager regarding the modification and the particular coverage on whether it’s available or not. He was trying to make it sound that there was no other policy out there that was gonna cover that and that’s something that I’d have to have covered by the manufacturer. It turned out that wasn’t the case. This may be an exception but the company ended up acquiring one. I’m sure they work with anybody but the dealership works exclusively with them so they are more familiar with the modifications. They may also have an agreement to cover them which makes sense so, that’s what the manager explained or what he was telling us why he has been covering. It was not common that they would be covered by a list of your competitors and in this case, they were. And that made me decide to go to someone else, ultimately.

I was with Ethos Group at first but I wasn't happy with what they were offering. So I went and did my due diligence and went online, and CARCHEX came up. I read their reviews and I was happy and satisfied with them, so I called. They had everything that I wanted and needed to be covered just in case and I would be paying the same price.

    I bought an extended coverage through another extended warranty company, Endurance. I found out that the people they call is just a broker and that the people who are selling the policy to you will tell you anything to get the sale. And when it comes down to getting things done, all these things are not covered. I needed a thermostat and it cost me $900 out of pocket, and the warranty company wouldn't pay for it. The dealership said that the radiator needed to be replaced. They don't put that on the warranty, but the rep from Endurance told me that the whole cooling system was covered when I bought it.

    CARCHEX was recommended by the dealership, and I also got positive feedback from the Mercedes dealership that CARCHEX was a more reputable company than the one I bought. They also covered more things for quite a bit more money. I had nothing but good things with the guy from CARCHEX that sold it to me, and the way he explained it to me. He called me back several times. I told him I wanted to make sure those were the parts and things that needed to be covered. Then he went back and modified it. I was told to cover the concern with smaller items that wouldn't be out of pocket instead of all the pistons on the inside.

    Having a protection plan is very valuable. I would tell others to read the policy and the things covered real close, talk to the salesman, see if he's a good guy and ensure that the parts and things that they say are covered without all the fine print. I got my brochure and I read most of it and CARCHEX covered a whole lot more things. I'm just waiting on CARCHEX to come into effect before I cancel the other one.

I told him I was busy during the day and he called me back at the end of the day, which I really appreciated. He got all my information and took my payment on the phone. He set everything up for the end of the month and that was cool.

    This was the first time it was easy for me 'cause I'd bought extended warranties at car dealers and they didn't really explain. When you're buying a car, that's usually the last process. Because I owned my car outright, I knew I had to protect it, and that made it easy for me 'cause all I had to focus on was buying the warranty. Knowing how parts on BMWs are, using CARCHEX just one time will be worth it. And with my luck, I'll never use it because I maintain my cars.

And so, he sent me the new coverage that I was looking at and applied for that.

    He called me around lunchtime the next day and asked me what company I was looking at going with. I told him it was Endurance and they gave me a cash price. He talked to his manager and they beat it by $130 so I decided to go with them.

I would have liked to know about it because if that is better than the one that I was approved for, then I would have liked to have the choice to understand what the better level is.

    The guy was very helpful, hospitable and informative regarding the entire plan. I have no complaints about him and I was quite satisfied with the choice that I made. But for anybody new signing for an extended warranty program, you would like to know the best options available prior to being approved for a specific class.

    I looked into getting an extended coverage as a safety net. I called CARCHEX and they responded on time. They informed me about the plan and when I asked them about the coverage, they said yes to everything. They also said that I had to wait for one month or 1000 miles before I could make my first claim. They gave a positive answer to every single one of my negatives like when I asked why they had so many bad reviews and customer complaints. They took me down to the Better Business Bureau website and told me that they addressed all customer complaints so they have an 8+ rating with the Bureau. That convinced me to go ahead and move forward with them.

    The rep who I worked with was agitated by some of my questions but in spite of that, I got the thing done when I talked to a manager. The manager gave me the deal I was looking for. Initially, they were asking for $3,600 for the plan I was interested in but I negotiated the price to $2,800 and they accepted. That was a huge price reduction. Overall, I had a great experience with CARCHEX.

    The auto coverage that I bought from the factory has already expired. I researched three extended coverage providers and the first to call was CARCHEX. Their salesperson, Gary, was very professional, respectful and he explained the options that I had. It seemed reasonable so I went with them. Nowadays, having a vehicle protection plan is very valuable because those cars are not like what they used to be in the past. The engines are so complicated and everything is computerized.

    Thank you for your review and an opportunity to address your concerns. CARCHEX takes great care to provide coverage from the top Vehicle Protection Companies and coverage is selected by the highest level of coverage at the best value for our customers. We take great pride in being a full disclosure company providing our customers a 30 day money back guarantee to review the coverage to ensure it meets your needs.

    With regards to your purchase, according to our records, you spoke with us on 5/2/2018. Our representative spoke with you and quoted you our highest level of Exclusionary coverage. Our representative spoke to you at this time and summarized your purchase including who the administrator of the coverage is and the terms of the purchase including the level of coverage, the term and miles purchased, and that the administrator of your purchase was American Auto Shield. Our representative reviewed the financing information for your purchase and advised there is a 30 Day and 1000 mile waiting period before any claims can be filed. At this time you agreed to the terms of the purchase and a digital copy of your coverage was emailed to you. A hard copy of the coverage was mailed to you at this time for your records as well.

    On 5/9/2018, we received a call from you asking if a claim could be filed prior to the 30 day & 1000 mile waiting period. Our customer service representative properly advised you that any failures occurring during the waiting period would be denied coverage and considered a pre-existing issue.

    We spoke to you again on 6/6/2018 regarding your claim and again on 6/7/2018. CARCHEX has reached out to the claims administrator, American Auto Shield, on your behalf to determine the status of your current claim. During these calls, we discussed the cancel process, administrator, and pre-existing conditions. Because we are beyond the 30 day Money Back Guarantee, a cancellation fee would apply in accordance with the terms and conditions listed in your contract.

    If you wish to cancel the coverage at this time, please give us a call at 877-227-2439 Ext. 6001. The cancellation instructions is also listed in your contract.

    I had a 20-year old Explorer that broke down on me so I've been looking for a car for several months and I knew that whatever car I was going to get, I was going to get an extended warranty. I Googled "Best Extended Warranty for Used Cars" and CARCHEX came up the top-rated one. I called and Ben was the first person whom I spoke with. I looked at a whole bunch of cars and dealerships at private parties so I called about a dozen times about different models. He was so helpful, wonderful, extremely nice, informative, friendly, wasn't pushy and I loved my interaction with him.

    He told me what cars to stay away from and what cars were good. There were a couple of cars that I looked at that had over $100,000 miles and they were only going to be able to offer me a one-year warranty. There was a luxury vehicle too and if I happen to need something fixed, they may or may not have been able to offer me another warranty at the end of that year. With those, Ben told me to try to get a car that had less than 100,000 miles on it. He took so much time and effort to talk to me and to go over things with me. I bought the most expensive one because he said that the warranty covers everything except oil changes and regular maintenance. However I did not know that there was a 90-day-3,000-mile period before I could use it.

    When I had the car inspected at a dealership, I told them I had gotten a four-year warranty and it was this amount with a $100 deductible. They asked if it covers electrical and I said that it covers bumper to bumper, top to bottom and everything except their maintenance. They looked at me and said that one had bought a warranty for their car and the warranty cost more than mine and it doesn't cover electrical. I definitely and absolutely will recommend CARCHEX to people I know.

    My experience with CARCHEX is horrible. I'm in the process trying to cancel it and the customer service totally sucks. Initially, the buying process was fine. But when I had questions about the thing, the people became belligerent. The problem is with their other provider, American Auto Shield, not CARCHEX. When I look into American Auto Shield, thousands of people are saying that CARCHEX never pays. They find an excuse not to pay, that the car has rubbed around the tires so I feel ripped off. Once I found out it was American Auto Shield and not a company called CARCHEX, I called the same day that I purchased it but they put me off until Monday to cancel it. The woman was incredibly rude, condescending, and ignorant to me.

    I have a construction business and not everything always goes perfect, not every customer is happy. And to immediately become rude and condescending is unbelievable. I was treated poorly when I decide I don’t wanna buy their product. They said that they were recording these conversations. If these people worked for me, it would have been their last day. She kept telling me that I was gonna have some problem and if that was what I really wanted to do. It is my money and I get to decide what I do with it.

    And that goes from their sales manager that I spoke to at that day on Saturday, to the woman in their cancelation department. She started sending me emails about the reliability of my vehicle and recalls that were on the Toyota FJ Cruiser. She came up with the headlights and an issue with the mounting bracket on the seatbelt. So if this is all the problems they could find with a vehicle that’s 11 years old when it comes to recalls, it’s pretty pathetic. I would advise anyone not to do business with them.

    Beginning of February, my car's warranty was off. My car is a very nice top end 2014 Maxima with only 20,000 miles on it. It's 90% electric, touch screen, and all the bells and whistles. It's a sport model, Titanium and got everything. A friend of mine at work used to work for CARCHEX. And I got another referral to go to them. So I called and talked to a gentleman, named Sean. I called in three or four times. Sean happens to be local and takes his Nissan to the same place I did. He was great. He told me he'd email me and he did. I called him again and he explained the warranty to me. He knows a lot of ripoffs there.

    Since the whole warranty thing sounded good, it fit together. And God forbid something does happen, I pray that I don't have any problem getting me covered and fixed. And I hope I never have to use it. But at least it's there and I'm comfortable having it. I want everything to work perfectly. The car is in 95% immaculate shape, so little things happen.

    CARFAX had a link that would see if a car, based on its mileage and type, would be available for an extended warranty. Once I went into that system, I called the number, registered online, and they said that I could be covered and I wanted to get that coverage. I purchased a CARCHEX plan and it was easy and their site was user-friendly. The people on the phone were pretty professional too. The first guy I talked to was the sales rep and he discussed the coverages with me and sent things to the email while he was on the phone so I could see what was being offered. And when I told him that I couldn’t do the 18 months, he made me hold for a moment then he came back and he put a supervisor on the phone. His supervisor talked to me and he said to go ahead and offer me the 24 months. Afterward, he put the original guy back on the phone.

    It's very valuable having the extended car warranty. I had cars in the past, one was a mini van. It's was a used car and something happened to the engine. Thanks to the fact that I had coverage on that, the company tried to rebuild it but they couldn’t so they went and found a compatible engine in another vehicle and put it in. The warranty covered it well. Since this car is 2014 and the coverage lasts for six years, I thought that if anything happens to it, it would be covered. Everything was pretty good with CARCHEX. The car that I purchased, a used car, was a bank repossession and I’m glad that the previous owner did not ramp up the mileage to the point that CARCHEX couldn’t cover me. I very appreciate that they could cover me and we got the job done within 15 minutes.

    CARCHEX denied to cover the cost to replace fuel pump on my vehicle even though the inspector who they sent out official report states that fuel leak originated as follows: "Findings RFI : Found fuel tank had no impacts. Fuel tank had evidence of fuel leaking from area of fuel pump/sending unit. Found outlet port on fuel pump was broken. Port is a plastic elbow & tech states it was partially cracked & broke off completely during tear down. Also high pressure plastic fuel line shows to have been leaking above quick disconnect clamp. No impacts. Metal portion of fuel line has no abuse or corrosion. Tech states there is not a 2nd fuel line but that new part # requires the additional 2nd line. Inspector's Opinion of Cause of Failure: 1. Material failure to fuel pump outlet port. 2. Material failure to pressure line from fuel pump outlet port."

    I have had the top of the line Titanium Plus coverage for well over a year and this was the very first time I put in a claim with them. When I spoke with the adjuster, he lied to me and stated that he was saw no indication of a fuel leak coming from the top of the fuel tank. I then requested copies of the inspector's vehicle inspection which contained five pictures labeled "Top of Fuel Tank Shows Area of Fuel Leaking" in addition to the part labeled #1 above which resides on top of the fuel pump ($900.00 to replace). Some of their Customer Service Representatives were extremely rude as well when I contacted them for assistance. They basically passed me around to different claim adjusters and other Customer Service Representatives who obvious never read the vehicle inspector's report in its entirety nor did they contact the dealership to get additional information from technician.

    I just bought my vehicle and the dealer's policy seemed very expensive for the kind that they were offering. I decided to look into it myself and I pushed in the top warranty places, and CARCHEX came number two. I went to their website and then I called the number and David, the gentleman I was talking to, offered me a way better deal than what the dealership was offering me. The way we talked is like I've known him for years and he was very good at what he did. He called me back, did a lot of research for me, and gave me CARFAX. He went over and beyond for me and it was a surprise that he did. He got me quotes from other places and he took time to break it down to me and let me know what CARCHEX offered that the others didn't. And CARCHEX still came lower than them all.

    I had a really good experience with David selling the warranty to me, finding me the best ways to go and the best policy. They try to start really high and he tried to give me the triple gold to start with. But I told him what I was willing to spend and he met those needs. I was very happy with David and the service. It has been about three weeks since I got the policy and I haven't received my packet yet. But also, it's only been a couple of weeks since I had the car. And for what CARCHEX says that they cover, it would be stupid of me not to have it. I would definitely recommend CARCHEX, especially if they got a phenomenal guy like David. My experience with CARCHEX has been wonderful.

    I called CARCHEX and immediately the individual that I spoke with asked me some questions about who I was and where I was. Then he put me through to the individual who was the California representative. He was great and he answered all of my questions. I’m quite a researcher and I had a lot of questions. He provided me all of the information that I needed to take to my mechanic. He works with a lot of extended warranties from different companies and he went over their policy with a fine-tooth comb.

    My salesperson with CARCHEX was very responsive, too. I left him messages a couple of times and he called me back right away. I was so impressed with the information that I got from him that I really didn’t do a lot of shopping beyond that. I also liked the transparency around providing all of the details of the product. Whereas if all the questions hadn’t been answered, I might have felt that I needed to shop more and find somebody who answered all the questions.

    One of the things that I also love about CARCHEX is that I wasn’t feeling locked into something that I couldn’t deal with right in the moment. I compared their product to what the dealer was offering and now that I know what kind of miles I will most likely be driving, I’ll be able to go back, look at their policy, and if I needed to massage it a little bit, I have the window to do that. It was a great experience and I’d recommend CARCHEX in a heartbeat.

    A car protection plan is very valuable and everybody needs to have one, especially when you're purchasing a used vehicle and in a state that is a no-forestated-issues. I wanted my car to be protected this time and not have to go through those options of something going wrong with it. That was important. I’ve been speaking with CARCHEX for a minute and they seemed to offer the best warranty around. I really wanted to go with it. Some of the other warranty companies were talking about, "You have to have insurance so get a car warranty." But what does that have to do with a car? Those were two totally different things. CARCHEX had a great salesperson and every person that I talked to for three months was an excellent customer service rep. I have no complaints. I spoke to two different guys and the last time, I spoke with another individual. I had a pretty good experience overall.

I bought the contract of Carchex and their rep was great. He couldn't have been better and more helpful. I went on the internet and all glorious things that were said by Carchex impressed me. I also talked to Endurance and Car Shield. The problem with Endurance was that they have an ironclad rule that you have to go a thousand miles before you are effective to get the insurance. But with Carchex, there is an alternative of three months and two hundred miles. For me, it sounded very appealing. The plan fits me perfectly. I would recommend Carchex to anybody.

    I had a very expensive car and I knew that it could be costly to fix should anything happen so I got a warranty to make sure that it would be covered. CARCHEX made the process easy and they got to me quickly. Purchasing the vehicle protection plan was mostly done over the phone. They were transparent and showed me the contract before I purchased so I could see what was covered. They gave me a good deal to purchase and made it affordable by doing it in monthly payments. The only frustrating thing is the back and forth between the warranty company and myself. Also, if you have a warranty issue, you don't call CARCHEX, you call the warranty company. So, CARCHEX ends up just being a broker and they didn't do a good job of explaining that to people. But still, CARCHEX is better than most out there.

I had to put an extended warranty on it so that if something happened, I wouldn't have to worry. I went online to check out all the coverage and CARCHEX was one of the top companies out there. Purchasing my vehicle protection plan was great. The specialist was a nice a guy. He explained everything to me from A to Z, like when you purchase an extended warranty and how bad you need it if something happened so you won't have to worry about it.

    The best thing though is that if something happened, I would only have to pay $100 out of pocket. Since everything was explainable, it made me get the coverage a little faster. Thus, having your own personal car insurance is good. You have that extra peace of mind when you don't have to worry about fixing it up. Overall, it was my first experience with CARCHEX and my interaction with their customer service was good. By opening up their door with a smile, these guys were not bad at all.

    The extended warranty on my car expired and a friend of mine who had Carchex before highly recommended them. Buying the extended warranty was very smooth. It didn't even take us over an hour to get everything set up and get the policy instated and I was really shocked about that. Our rep was very friendly and patient. He told me the area that he was in, which was in Louisiana. Because of that, he understood my needs. That stood out to me because most insurance companies that you call, they are in another state and they will not understand what you need and what type of protection you need.

    He was also very open and very honest, but, most importantly, he was very attentive to what I needed and what I was looking for. With that, he really caught my attention. Some insurance companies when you call them, it's just a money thing. But with him, he found the best policy that will fit my need. That was what I liked about Carchex. After I reviewed the coverage that I received in the mail, it was what I wanted. It was the exact same coverage I had with the extended warranty from the dealership. This extended warranty comes in handy because I have a Lincoln luxury car and it is fully loaded. If anything was to break on it, it would be very expensive for me to have to come out of pocket to pay.

    I have a used car and I've had it for a year now. I had some repairs already so I figured I'd need it to be something. CARCHEX had very pleasant and nice people and their rate was okay so I went ahead with them. I just started with them. Others should call them too.

    I used CARCHEX last year so I decided to re-up with them again for convenience and professionalism. Their people were efficient. But when I used the plan last year it wasn’t a great. I had a big problem in getting my vehicle serviced. But I can’t put a value on having a warranty on my vehicle, especially on a vehicle that I’m still paying for. Also I received excellent assistance from the protection specialist. Right now I’m satisfied with the service from CARCHEX.

    CARCHEX’s price was pretty okay and they’re more reputable than other places I saw. Their rep wanted to make sure that I got the right package and went out of his way to find other packages and compared it to them. He was very knowledgeable about his craft. If something happens to the car, a vehicle protection plan is very valuable. CARCHEX is a good company and if you need them they’re there for you.

    We had cancelled our previous coverage because we thought about selling our vehicle. Unfortunately, it went through before we decided we were not going to sell the vehicle. At that point, we shopped around and decided to get a new warranty. I Googled some warranty companies and CARCHEX had some good reviews. Their representative was very helpful. He answered all the questions I had and he walked us through the process. He kept in touch and worked with us pretty well. Having a vehicle protection plan is very important. We’ve had it in our other vehicles that we have paid off, and it helped a lot. I have a coworker that just purchased a vehicle and I will definitely recommend CARCHEX to her. She can always reach out and get a quote from them.

    I've been with CARCHEX for a couple of weeks now. They were one of the top-rated car warranties from a website search. Their rep introduced the program to me and answered all questions I had. He was prepared to give me some customized quotes on the first call and he was very conciliatory. He worked with my concerns and my actual needs because CARCHEX has four different levels and he challenged me with the best level. He gave me an appropriate level of coverage for my need and he asked very good questions to discover what that was.

    I appreciate that CARCHEX was a very professional and non-pressure-related. But their payment was a little on the high side. We're going to keep the car that I have and replace a car payment so they’ll pay the car off. Assuming that CARCHEX does what it says it will do, I consider it an adequate amount to pay for that. If anyone is interested about CARCHEX, they should make sure to talk and be honest with the company and give them all their needs because CARCHEX will answer their questions. Whether it's the answers you want or not, they will accurately tell you what they can offer. They're very honest and forthright in their dealings.

    My vehicle was new and I wanted to have a warranty on it because you never know if something’s going to happen in the future, so it’s always good to feel secure. I was going to go with what the dealership was offering but I decided to do a little more research and found CARCHEX. I liked how the website looks and there was a lot of information so I made a call.

    The salesman was really nice and very informative. He made me feel comfortable and made me understand that I was getting a really good package for my car. It made me feel secure. Also I had a really good interaction with the vehicle specialist. The person was very professional, very informative and made me feel like I was making a good decision getting my warranty. CARCHEX is a great company and my friend or family member should go ahead and get it. It's a little pricey but it’s worth it.

    I did some research and the other company I found wasn’t insured by anybody else. They don’t have backing in case they go out of business so you don’t lose your money. That’s what CARCHEX told me about. After they said to go check out who back-signed their insurance, that’s when I said okay. They are the only people with actual backing from a company that I recognize. The specialist was good but he was a little pushy. Even so, he said that I could call him anytime. He gave me his extension number in case I have any more questions. I got an extended coverage for my car so I'd have a peace of mind if anything happened to it because it’s my baby. I’m paying as much for this insurance as I paid for my car, which is a BMW, so hopefully it all works out and if anything does happen, they'd cover it. I’ve read a lot of reviews on their website where it says that they don’t cover anything, so my fingers are crossed and I’m taking a chance.

    I purchased the vehicle a week before I called CARCHEX. My car has high mileage so I wanted to make sure that I was covered. I had called another company and the company that I picked was horrible and was scamming people. So back then when my specialist, Jay, called me I told him that I found someone else. But Jay called me back later that day and he was like, “Yeah, you kind of brushed me off at first. I just wanted to make sure everything was good." So it was a really good experience. They just kept up on me and assured me that I was doing the right thing. I’m satisfied.

    Jay helped me and he was amazing. He was very detailed and very knowledgeable about the company. I made him repeat things to me over and over just to make sure I got it, otherwise, he was good and very thorough. So far everything was really good. I'm very happy with my vehicle coverage. I referred somebody before I even signed up myself so a guy called me and he told me that my friend called but he can’t give me the benefits until I sign up with them. If you want a long lasting car and able to be fixed I would recommend CARCHEX.

It’s a very expensive car and its repair cost would be very expensive, so having a protection plan is very valuable.

    I’m a cost communications employee, I get a better rate and a bit of cash back at the end of the year when I go with CARCHEX. So when my coverage ended and I was shopping around for extended coverage for my vehicle, I went with them. I had a good and informative experience when purchasing the protection plan. Their reps told me everything I was getting with each particular plan I was asking about and the specialist I got was good. Initially, when I filled out the stuff, I was at work and he had no problem calling me right back on the scheduled date and time that we talked about. He told me everything I needed to get him and he got things all squared away. The two-year plan I got from CARCHEX was reasonably priced and not as expensive as I thought it would be. I've recommended them to others.

    My vehicle was getting older. I still have my original warranty, but it was coming to an end, so I wanted to make sure that I got covered. I looked at the top 10 companies. I checked out the number one company, and they were very pushy and they didn’t explain the coverage correctly. I spoke to Joshua, the gentleman rep at CARCHEX, and he was a really good guy. He took a lot of time with me, and he went over all the coverage and the prices, including the difference in coverage. CARCHEX met the cost that the number one company was giving me. CARCHEX even did a bit better, and they were really helpful versus just trying to make a sale. With the number one company, it’s a decreasing plan where the amount of coverage decreases as your vehicle gets older. Whereas with CARCHEX, the coverage does not decrease. So it’s a flat $15000 that they’ll reimburse or pay for your car to get fixed, which I thought was a great thing.

    I’m in sales, and most of the time, salespeople are trying to make their sale and move on. I had spoken to a manager of the number one company, and they didn’t want to give me any information. Their salesperson who originally spoke to me was so short that I don’t even know how they stay in business or have an A-plus rating. With Joshua at CARCHEX, the process took a couple of days and he really stuck with me. He was very nice and informative and he answered all of my questions. Also, he gave me information that I didn’t ask because most of the time, salespeople just tell you what you need to know or what you ask. I haven't had any claims with CARCHEX because I just purchased it, but I hope they’re as good on paying the claims and holding up their end of the bargain as they were in explaining the coverage. CARCHEX was excellent and my experience with them was really great.

    CARCHEX had good reviewers online and the service was relatively simple and straightforward. When I called them, they had to transfer me to an appropriate person which was typical for California. But Ben, their protection specialist, did an exceptional job. He got back with a quote and went down for the options on it. He also followed up with emails and gave me everything that I needed. Then he called me back a few days later asking if I had any more questions and if I wanted to move forward with the coverage for the used car that I bought. And I moved forward with it, though I still had been expecting for the package to arrive. Other than that, dealing with CARCHEX on the phone and getting the process rolling was an easier experience than what I was expecting.
