    Someone from CARCHEX did a cold call. He gave me some information regarding the major difference between CARCHEX and CarShield, and CARCHEX was favorably received. I like the fact that if anything major comes along, it’d just be $100 out of pocket. The reps worked with me. They gave me my options and the things that would be best for me. They were very informative.

    Signing up was fast and they were willing to be flexible with me. The price included some services that I didn't need because I already had them through AAA, like roadside assistance. They were able to customize a package for me so that I had what I needed, and I wasn't paying for things that I didn't need.

    The rep was helpful. He gave me a discount and he called it being wise as far as being a safe driver. But I noticed that he signed me up, but he didn't talk about a contract number. He did express that the booklet would be in the mail in 5 to 10 days. I realize there's a grace period, but when I called back, they were asking me for a number. I said, “I don't have a contract number.” So, I just had to go by my phone number.

    I bought my wife's car about three years ago and I bought the CARCHEX warranty for it. I did the payments over time. I'm always leery of warranties and what they cover. We did our first claim three years later on a window and it went through seamlessly. Everything worked out. I added my '21 Ram Rebel pickup truck to CARCHEX and the rep I had was very patient with me because I can't make any decisions on my own. I had to call the wife and get the go ahead. He let me place him on hold, take a call, ask a couple of questions, and flip back and forth. I was really appreciative of him. The price was really good compared to other ones. The biggest benefit of CARCHEX is its ease of use. Everything was pretty good.

    I had a CARCHEX warranty on my previous car that I traded in. The package that I had covered a lot of things. I wanted the same package on my new car, which I got. It went well. A lot of times, I got the runaround. "I can't do this price," but CARCHEX came back and ended up doing that price.

    I've had three policies through them. I like their customer service. Their reps were very good. The problem is, they're a broker. I also had one warranty through them that I wasn't really crazy about. You really have to read the fine print. If you don't go through it, you get surprises. I had a claim and they didn't wanna cover a dealer part, they wanna use an aftermarket part. But it says in the contract that they could just replace some parts.

    I got the highest level of coverage. So, rather than paying for it for many years, it's just a month-to-month, which works out. But it seems CARCHEX could make up their own price of whatever rep is there because the rep would make the price as opposed to it's listed on a brochure, and I would know ahead of time what I am getting myself into and be able to compare with other companies. CARCHEX doesn't cover suspension shocks and struts, which makes sense. But the biggest benefit for me would be the electronics.

The rep named all the parts that I was satisfied with - electric, transmission, engine, and clutch for my son because he had it in his Jeep. But the Audi, they said that they could only give me the gold-plus because it's 2015. But the agent spoke well. He told us what they cover and what they don't.

    The CARCHEX rep and I were on the telephone for an hour, which was a very long time. I had a lot of questions. And there was a big push to get me to hurry up and agree to it and close the deal. They were going for the fast close. I asked questions about, "Was this commission based?" I know what the gig is, so I wouldn't feel pressured to rush myself through the process. I was very thoughtful as we worked our way through it.

    The funny part was, because I had researched it online, I knew what the price parameters were. They started out much higher than anything that they advertised. When I began to pause and have reservations, they started lowering the price. So by the time it was over, it had come down percentage-wise a bit. So, it was just a big game. I've thought about people that don't do any research and don't understand how the sales machine works, probably not a good thing, because they're probably paying more for it than they should.

    I liked the flexibility and where I could take my car for service, that there's no end date to it, your payments are fixed for however long you wanna maintain the plan. And I can cancel it anytime I want to. The only thing it doesn't cover is standard maintenance. I bought a used car, so I was looking for something that was all-inclusive. So if I keep it for 5 years, I keep it for 5 years. If I keep it for 10, I keep it for 10. But for right now, it fits my needs.

    When I used CARCHEX to do a repair, they only paid 1% of whatever I had gotten done. I had to pay out of my pocket. But I paid the $200 down payment for my deductible, which was too high. With my previous warranty, I only paid 100. So this time, I paid more than what I paid for the whole year. I still had to come out of my pocket with $1,000 to get the repair done. So I wasn't satisfied with that.

    CARCHEX told me that I had the Silver plan. I tried to get another plan to upgrade. So I called them and they told me that they had a better plan than the one I had. So I upgraded. When I did call them, I tried to cancel the previous plan I had for the Jeep. The cancellation on that was refunded. On the same day I did that, I paid a down payment for the Impala. They took the money out the 28th of last month. But I didn't know they were gonna take it out that soon. I thought they were gonna take it out the next month. I received the warranty package this week on that. But the mileage on their paperwork was incorrect.

    I spoke to a representative from CARCHEX and they told me that the cancellation was put in for the Jeep. I got an email saying it was canceled, but they still took the money out of my account. I never got that issue resolved. The guy said I no longer have the services for the Jeep. But he did see the Impala. On the warranty paperwork they sent me, I had sent her email stating that the mileage on the Impala was 174,000. On the paper, it’s 184,000. So, it's 10,000 miles different. My car had been hit last night. It was a hit-and-run situation. I'm dealing with that right now. But I cannot even use CARCHEX so I need to cancel my policy.

    With the type of vehicle that I have, I need to spend a little bit more than what the average person will spend on their vehicle. I was calling around and checking on different warranty companies. The CARCHEX salesman was great and sold me real good. He basically was telling me the different stuff that they cover. He explained to me the different advantages of going with CARCHEX. He also gave me things that were way better than what I was already getting.

    With Protect My Car before and they will only pay 50%. CARCHEX, on the other hand, will cover the whole thing. There was a deductible of $100. I got the best package. An extended warranty is something that everybody should get because of the simple fact that you never know when a situation may happen with your vehicle. You may not have the financial means to pay for the vehicle so it's best to have an extended warranty. Without a vehicle, your life is on hold.

    From the information I was given, the plan sounded adequate for what I needed, and I like the fact it goes from month to month and the rate will not change. Now, the initial rate for me was too high. Carchex eventually came down, which, after the fact, makes me think how far would they have come down. Nevertheless, compared to the cost of the warranty I was looking at at the dealership, I'm satisfied with the cost of the one I have.

It was 16 articles on the website, but then I received a contract and it was only 9 articles. The representative said that the gold plan is no longer available. I asked if they could make an exception, but they said no. I also get coverage from Endurance, and they cover more.

I clearly told him that I have 114,000 miles." They did nothing. I even spoke with the supervisor and they also didn't do anything.

    AVOID In June 2023, I purchased a Powertrain Plus warranty through CarChex with the provider being American Auto Shield (AAS) under the impression they would be better than the last provider I had a run in with. Very first time I had to use it, all was going good, shop called me about what needed to be done, they called AAS and I got a message from the adjustor, they would only cover 50% of the radiator repair, better than nothing I guess. I called back and approved it within 15 minutes and was told they would call them back and let them know to do the work. I stopped by the shop and they said they never got a call, and it had been over 3 hours since I approved it.

    I called AAS back to see what the hold up was and I got a snippy little woman telling me that the adjustor will call them back within 24 hours. I was like ok, if that is the case, I am already out of work for today and now tomorrow, I need a rental to get around, ohhh, you need to have 4 hours of labor approved for a rental and you have 3.8 hours so you will not get one, so I am out $1500 for no work, $1500 of what I have paid to the warranty company and $500 of what they will not cover. So my total repair was $1096, it is cheaper for you to pay it out of pocket then have to deal with the POS company just screwing you out of your hard earned money.

    Response from CARCHEX

    Thank you for your review. We appreciate your feedback about your claim experience. We have provided feedback to your contract administrator to address these concerns.

    According to the claims notes, your claim was approved in accordance with your coverage using parts of like, kind and quality. Additionally, the labor time for your repairs was verified through a National Labor Guide for your specific vehicle. Unfortunately, the repair shop was not willing to use an aftermarket part or allow the administrator to ship in the approved part(s). This resulted in out of pocket expense. Additionally, the claim was approved with exact diagnostic time and the time to remove and replace the parts but the repair shop rounded up on the repairs.

    We understand out of pocket expenses can be frustrating. But it appears the contract administrator did approve the claim properly in accordance with your contract.

Mind you the rep that transferred me to him already called me by name and told me what kind of car I had without me saying anything. Then he gets argumentative with me when I asked for a supervisor and refuses to get me to a supervisor. He said “how am I supposed to log the call to get you to a supervisor when I don’t even know who you are and you haven’t gave me any information”. Beyond unprofessional!

    I'm not one to bash anyone but when the public needs to be made aware of deceptive trade practices this is where I voice my opinion to make everyone aware. PLEASE READ YOUR CONTRACT. This company will send you an email for you to review and it has everything listed that they will cover during your warranty period so I truly thought we had finally found an honest and outstanding warranty company. I waited got my contract and placed it in the lockbox only to find out now that I need the warranty the list sent VIA email is not the same listed in the contract itself. They will not cover the issue we are experiencing please. I am now having to file a complaint with BBB and take to small claim court. And will also notate this on my other Yelp and Google reviews. This is wrong to pay for a warranty only to learn they were not truthful in their coverage. Why can't people simply be honest. This is insane. Pay over 6.000 for a warranty and it isn't true.

    Thank you for your review. We will address your concerns on your recent claims experieince for the coverage on your 2013 Mercedes Benz E350.

    Please note, as the retailer of your coverage, CARCHEX does not approve or deny claims. The contract administrator is responsible for all claims. As such, we have reached out to your contract administrator for the claims details to respond to this review.

    According to their records, there have been 4 claims called in for your vehicle. Claims were approved in September 2019, March of 2020, and May of 2020. Most recently, in February of 2023, a repair request was called in for your high-pressure fuel pump. Unfortunately, this is not a listed component on your coverage and the claim was denied.

    In your review, you have advised customers to read their contract. We appreciate that recommendation. ALL of our Vehicle Protection Specialists are trained and required to read a closing summary of the purchase where we tell all of our customers to read their contract. We provide a 30 day money back guarantee to protect our customers so they have an opportunity to read the contract and call us with any questions or concerns. We have verified this closing summary was read word for word to you at the time of purchase.

    We take great pride in being a full disclosure company. And while we understand the frustration of having a non-listed component fail on your vehicle, the claim was denied correctly within the terms of your contract.

    I googled and CARCHEX turned up and I saw that it had positive reviews. I called and customer service was very helpful. The sign-up was easy and so are the monthly payments. They come right out of your checking account. Also, you can cancel anytime without any penalty. If you decide you don't want to pay $100 anymore or you can't afford to pay, you call them and quit. I made sure of that in the beginning. I didn't want to be obligated. I've been happy with CARCHEX. We had one or two claims and they paid the repair shop right away and I didn't have any issues. One of them was expensive. It was transmission work. The repair facility got their money immediately and it was seamless. It was very quick and easy.

    Signing up was good. I got basic coverage on the powertrain and major parts. I had an issue with the front differential and I took my vehicle to Ford. They said they wouldn't do it. I called CARCHEX and they gave me some recommendations on where to go. The first place they sent me to said they didn't do that anymore and that CARCHEX was too hard to deal with and to do paperwork with. He said that he had to take everything apart, take pictures of the stuff on the ground and then wait for CARCHEX to approve it. Most of the time, they can't afford to have a truck up on a lift for two days waiting for the warranty company to approve the repair.

    I called again and CARCHEX sent me to a second place. I dropped the vehicle there and the next day, the dealership called and said they don't have anybody who can work on my vehicle. I went to a different Ford dealer and the guy there said he would do it. I was without my vehicle for 40 days.

    I had a horrible experience. As a matter of fact, I'm trying to get my money back right now because Carchex drew another payment out of my checkbook. I canceled it in January, and they drew the payment out two days ago. I've been trying to get ahold of them, but you gotta wait on the phone for 15 minutes. When I took my car in to have it fixed, the garage said that the fuel pump was bad. The Carchex claim agent went over there and said the compression test was not right. My mechanic said, “I don't know what your guys are looking at, but I'm telling you, I'm looking at the diagnostics of this thing, and it is bad.” But they refused to pay for it.

    Then the motor mounts went out, which are not covered because it's not greased, but that's fine. But when they ordered all the extra compression tests and then didn't pay for them, that was not right. My mechanic said that there was no reason to have these extra tests. But Carchex said, “Well, if you don't do them, then we're gonna refuse the claim.” So he performed the tests, but they refused the claim. So now I'm stuck paying $500 for all the tests they had the garage do. I am totally unhappy with them.

My first payment was made on a Visa card that was a gift card and a refund would not be allowed towards a gift card. They said they would send a check in a couple of weeks but I never got the check. When I called back, I got transferred nine times and hung up on three times. Finally, they connected me to Zurich, who is the administrator of the plan, and they said they have nothing on file stating that the contract was ever canceled.

    The contract was never canceled. I have the lady's name who was handling it and she apologized upside, left and right, and all this jazz. I spent over two hours on the phone to get a ridiculous check and it's still not resolved because they have to call someone else to get it. It's ridiculous. Some people along the line tried to help me. They weren't successful at it but at least they tried and it goes to show you that the system stinks. At one time, I was volleyballed over to a recording and the recording was saying, "On a basis of one to five, how would you rate the following...?" I didn't even speak to anyone yet. How can I rate someone?

    Also, the first day I called, they put me on hold and they said they were experiencing a lot of calls because of the weather. If you know it's going to be bad weather, all you got to do is turn on the television, see if it's bad weather, then you call in extra people to put on the phone so people don't have to hang on the phone for two hours.

The dealership said the issue was a timing belt and they told Carchex. The car dealership told me that Carchex said they have to send out an inspector. I called the warranty people to see where they were at with that and they said that they are waiting on a diagnosis. It's a bunch of confusion and I'm still without a car. It's my first time doing this and I don't know if this is typical.

    CARCHEX offered me the best price and they offered me the best way to pay for it. Most of the companies wanted half down and then pay the other half over the next two months. Carchex said they could do it for over four months and takes just a quarter of it a month instead of having to have half of it down. At first I thought the rep was really pushy. I told him one day I have to talk to my wife about it and that if he calls me one more time, he will not sell me anything from CARCHEX. He changed his whole attitude. I called him back a week later or so and told him that we decided we're gonna go with CARCHEX. He asked if he could call me back the next day.

    I had a problem when my bank account and my phone were hacked. The CARCHEX payment got there sooner than my new card did. Mike called about the issue with the payment and told me to just give him the new card number as soon as I can. Two days later, my card came. I called him and he took the new number and I haven't had any trouble since.

    I purchased a Warranty (Centennial Plan) on 11/26/21. I tried to use the warranty on an issue with my car regarding a failed “Window Motor” on March 10th, 2022. This is clearly covered under the Plan Coverage under Electrical components covered. I was sold on the premise that I can “Take your Vehicle to a licensed repair facility of Your Choice” which includes a dealer, that was confirmed since I take my car to the dealer for service.

    The motor was covered but only at a fraction of the cost quoted by the Dealer, of which the “Shop Rate” was not covered as well. Even though I called prior to let them know I was bringing in the car for service and asked what I need to do for the warranty be initiated by the repair facility. I was told “to have them call prior to anything being repaired, and that all I will have to pay is the $100 deductible”. This was not the case they were only willing to pay the following:

    • Half of the shop rate
    • A fraction of the covered part

    • Part of the total time of repair

    The Royal Administration Services Representative known hereinafter as (RASR), the underwriter for the policy’s excuse is they found a cheaper part cost and relayed to the dealer to order from a specific website. Anyone who works for a dealer or any other repair facility, knows that all repair facilities have specific procurement process’. They also would know that there is a repair book that has all times for part replacements, of course some may be 1-2 tenths of any hour difference due to an ordered process of removal vs any shortcuts along the way, this removes the chance of breaking something to squeeze out a part.

    RASR said I would have to pay the difference of the cost voiding their claim “Take your Vehicle to a licensed repair facility of your choice”. I spoke to a Colleen from RASR and asked her provide me a facility they recommend due to the issue experienced above so I don’t have to go through the same issue again. She provided Brake World, Firestone and Honest Once Care.

    Fast forward to 12/28/22, I brought the car to Brake World for the exact same issue, and once again gave the same run around with the Shop Rate $139.99, Total repair time 1.7 vs 1.3, and the part cost dictating to repair facility to order from this particular site or me to order the part then bring it to them to install, was told to me by the RAAR, Dennis, knowing that is not feasible as they won’t certify the repair or cover under warranty if I chose to do so. Interestingly enough, in speaking to the RASR, (Dennis), I asked why was the Shop Rate not covered in whole, per my request from the other RASR, that provided me the repair facility. He mentioned their Shop Rate was $199.99 and they will only cover $134.99. This struck me as strange as Brake World Displays the shop rate clearly as they are obligated to do.

    I called to confirm, and they provided me the invoice, of which clearly states $139.99 shop rate vs the $199.99 that was provided to me by the RASR. There was clearly a miscommunication not sure where, but the RASR said their intake form is verbal from the Repair shop. Further discussing with the RASR, on a mutually recorded phone conversation, the RASR was very combative. I explained to him now knowing the actual shop rate, I won’t have an issue covering the $5 difference in the shop rate vs $65 difference RASR claims is the Shop Rate. The RASR agent would not consent as to the veracity of the intake knowing the Rate is incorrect.

    I clearly asked Dennis, if I can ask repair facility to resubmit with the actual shop rate to get the car repaired since I have no way of confirming that the shop provided that info or their intake person misunderstood and he said “you can have the shop call in the claim or resubmit but in the likelihood, it won’t change anything”. So, they would cover the original rate they took down in error not the correct shop rate with proof. Please note I called RASR and spoke to another person on the 29th, and she said the shop rate was $180, and when I asked Dennis to confirm the Rep’s name he would not, and only stated we have no one with that name even though I may have had the name incorrect, only stated we have no one working with that name. Not very pleasant at all, but indicative of their policy.

    Stay away. I would ask the following for those who are considering an extended warranty. 1. Do you have a Shop Rate maximum you would cover. 2. Which governing book for repair do you use; this dictates the time they are willing to pay for a particular repair or lower. 3. If a part needs replacement, do you cover a part on an average around the country or lowest being used or certified repaired, New, and what cost. 4a. If you find a part lower, do you have a parts company you use, or will recommend if not covered under the shop’s normal procurement process? Keep in mind, most won’t do so due to liability. If they do, beware trying to claim again with CarChex RASR as they will most likely only cover a portion then throw at you it would be covered but seems like it’s a defect and won’t cover at all, good luck in trying to prove that otherwise to them. Stay away!!

    Initially, my experience with Carchex was good. But it hasn't been so good since.

But I dug deeper into my current policy and it doesn't expire for a year. I have another 5,000 miles on it. I don't drive the car that often, so I decided rather than buying a new policy, I would hold on to the one that I have.

    It's been within seven days since I signed up and I haven't even gotten the contract from CARCHEX yet. I sent that in an email over to the team requesting cancellation last week. I spoke to someone on Monday and they said they were gonna send me a cancellation form. But I have been calling every day since Monday to speak to someone and haven't been able to get to someone. My intention was to come back with them within the next year after my policy expires. But based on the experience that I just had, I'm definitely not coming back.

    I had a telephone call with a gentleman from CARCHEX and he quoted some prices, which were fairly high but I could live with. He then sent me an email to confirm his phone discussion and each, for five years, was $1,000 higher than what he had quoted on the phone. It took about a week to work that out and that didn't thrill me. Eventually, CARCHEX honored the original price that I was quoted on the phone.

    I've had other plans on vehicles so I'm familiar with the program. For older vehicles, it's very basic coverage. It's mainly your drive train and key points. It's a limited coverage policy. I went with Endurance's four-year policy, largely based on price. I don't expect to have the car beyond four years. I just received the policy yesterday. There's a 30-day and 1,000-mile waiting period.

    CARCHEX didn't come through as a high-pressure sales tactic. They presented things and answered questions that I had. They did not go, “Oh, if you don't do it today, you're going to lose a discount of such and such,” or different examples they would come up with. But CARCHEX needs to make it clear and upfront that there is a period of one month or 1000 miles that you're actually paying for that is excluded that you can't turn a claim in. They're all good at sidestepping that issue.

    My policy with CARCHEX should be here within a week or so. By then, I will be able to evaluate if I really want to keep it or if I want to cancel it. I'm going to go over the policy once I get it and scrutinize it to make sure what I have been told is actually in black and white. I want to see what they exclude from warranting. It's easy for the other firms to say, “Yes, this is what's covered under warranty.” But there are things that fall through the crack that gets overlooked. For example, omissions and things of that nature.

    The biggest thing I liked about the CARCHEX rep is I know they're a commission, but they weren't pushy. He also brought his manager on too. I would deal with CARCHEX again if I had to call them for their service.

    CARCHEX was a nightmare to cancel. I signed up in the evening. Then the next day, we went and bought our car and discovered that we already had all that warranty on it. So, we didn't need what I had signed up for. So I called back to cancel it. It was wonderful when I signed up but then when I tried to call back to cancel, they kind of gave me an attitude. I spent a couple of days trying to cancel it but it was finally canceled now, so it's all done.

    I had to settle for a policy that is very expensive! I had to cancel CarShield at $110/ month (very affordable) then had to cancel Omega because I was conned into this program thinking it was Zurich at $110/month. $140 is very expensive. Hope I don't have to cancel because of affordability!

    I did a check on feedback and on reports on who was satisfied with Carchex. The sign-up was very easy. I talked to a gentleman and he was full of a lot of information. He told me a lot of stuff so I felt very confident with him. I went with the best policy there was for what I have. If something happens, this policy is very valuable. If nothing happens, then it's a waste of money.

    I just purchased Carchex and there's a waiting period. Everything's good. I talked to customer service right after for some questions and they did a very good job explaining it. I only have one concern. Carchex is not really the policy facilitator and they sell it to other companies. I'm worried that there will be issues over there.

    I've had my hands on my motor too much and I was getting tired of trying to fix it myself. Carchex was just a precautionary measure in case something worse were to happen. It would save me time, effort, and money. The initial gentleman I spoke with was very upfront and very welcoming. He was able to help me understand what I was looking into and was able to explain to me the needs that I was asking and made sure that I understood it all. He turned me to his supervisor because at first because I didn't really like the monthly payment. They were able to get me to a payment that I was able to agree upon. They initially wanted 200 something every month and that was a little out of my price range so they got me down to about 170. I was more comfortable with that. It’s an extended time period of paying but it's better than over 200 a month on top of the 300 that I already paid for my car.

    I found an email from CARCHEX so I gave them a call because I went online and I saw that CARCHEX was higher rated than Endurance, which I initially worked with. The representative that I talked to pointed out something very important, which is the limit of liability. I wasn't aware of that. My car is a 2011 BMW and it's a beautiful car. It's not new and it's only gonna go lower over time. The limit of liability to the value of the car renders the policy useless. By the end of the policy, you would have paid more money for the policy than what the car is worth. If you're gonna cover me for $5,000 and charge me $600 for the policy upfront, this is a scam. CARCHEX offered a $15,000 limit of liability, which is more than enough to fix whatever happened with the car. Even if it's something with the engine, the warranty still covers it.

    The rep I spoke with was perfect. He was very clear about what he was explaining. I reached out to him a couple of times on the call and he always answered. He was very informative and very respectful. I really liked the experience. The only thing with CARCHEX was I didn't get an email with my policy. Endurance sent me an email with the booklet type of thing. With CARCHEX, I got an email with a separate contract and the representative told me that I would be getting the actual policy in the mail. It's no big deal but I would have liked to get the actual policy.

    Fred, the rep I talked to over the phone, was a nice guy. But yesterday, I called Carchex to try to cancel my extended warranty because I found out I’m going to sell my car and I got transferred four times before they finally just stopped answering the phone. So, I haven’t even canceled it yet.

    They explained everything in full detail when I was signing up and I was happy with what they had. I liked the package deal that I got. They told me I had to make my first payment upfront with my credit card and after that, they're gonna start taking the money out every month for three years. I have to pay for three years but I have five years' worth of coverage. Carchex is a good company and they have great customer service.

    The reps at Carchex were good. I got what I wanted. I have a bumper-to-bumper coverage and I have to have so many miles before I can use it. I had one small problem but it was a computer-generated error. The policy wasn't completely filled out correctly in the book. They spelled my street address wrong and they had a couple of other little errors but the rep said he got it corrected and he’ll send me a new copy.

    The rep broke the coverage down by years and mileage, and gave additional packages that may be suitable for my needs. I was very much satisfied with the coverage I signed up for. I'm very apprehensive about certain things especially with extended warranty programs because they can tell you one thing and it's something totally different. I was skeptical about Carchex because it's almost like they're stupid to be true. I'm just waiting for the catch. But Carchex is a good program.
