I spoke with Wanda (claims rep) this morning regarding the policy I just purchased on my 09 Yukon. She stated missing (prior) maintenance records from the previous owner would not be a problem and would be covered if I were to have a claim.

I have had my policy for over a year and this was my first time to use it. Everything worked exactly as they advertise. Could not be more pleased. My car was towed to dealership. The problems were Identified. The Dealership called CarShield. I agreed to paying the deductible and everything was taken care of. I would highly recommend CarShield.

Customer service was very professional and courteous. Will purchase Car Shield for all of my vehicles. My Chrysler 300 was in an accident. The insurance totaled the vehicle, therefore my contract with Car Shield is not necessary anymore on the Chrysler 300. Please continue to send me promotional incentives and discounts. Do you have discounts for senior or elderly citizens? If so, please consider sending me the information that I am interested in senior discounts for Car Shield purchases. I already have a contract with my 2012 Toyota Camry. Thank you for your assistance and with your company being number one in the USA for warranties.

I was new the process of this time of warranty coverage. Car Shield made the process from filing to have the work completed every easy. I'm thrilled by the customer service and communication. The plan I have covered a partial payout for the repair, which I thought was very fair. Car Shield saved me thousands!! I am so grateful I got the warranty coverage. I plan on keeping it for as long as I can.

Original review: May 14, 2023

I called CarShield, or a referral to someone who could repair my air conditioner and my back windows which were power windows. They referred me to Pep Boys. I made an appointment and it took three hours for them to discover how much it was going to be, and then to submit it to CarShield for approval, I felt this was an extraordinarily long time to wait. Once CarShield approved it it took them another three hours to repair the damages so all in all it took me six hours of my day to get my car repaired.

We, at CarShield, have little to no control over the decision of your claims. That is up to the administrator of the account. We are always happy to explain your coverage details and assist in any customer service needs, however.

When my cooling system failed, CarShield replaced the whole system. Saving me about $400. Pepboys called carshield and filed a claim. It got approved and Pepboys completed the work the same day. The bill was about $500. After my $100 deductible I drove away a very happy customer.

The whole warranty, what a freaking joke. The only reason I bought this warranty is cause your commercial and your salesman both never pay more than $200 for another car. The expense cost of me over $11,000 to have my pickup fixed. You guys aren't hardly covering ** maybe 3,000.

I attempted to put my car in reverse to back out of garage; but the gear shift was stuck in the park position! I attempted several more times, but I couldn’t get the gear shift to move! Finally, my husband was able to use a screwdriver to get the gear to move. We immediately took it to Burleson Nissan for repairs. They checked it out, informed us of the problem and the cost ($2,000)! After being stunned, I remembered that I am a customer of CarShield, which I had previously purchased after the factory warranty had expired! My husband called the dealership and informed them that I was a customer of Car Shield! From that point, Nissan Burleson and CarShield communicated about the repairs. The Service Dept. informed us that my car was ready. We only had to pay $100! I am a satisfied customer of CarShield! Thank you so much!!

I called with the intention of cancelling my coverage, however, the assistance from Julie has me reassessing my options. Julie went above and beyond my expectations in investigating issues, advocating for me, guiding me through downloading your app and getting my car's information put in. Today was my first direct contact with your customer care and it was very positive. Thank you.

You never cover the repair fully because you must use inferior products as your parts are always much much cheaper than any parts on any repair needed. I wish you would even consider coming close to the cost of the replacement part!!

Great deals, service, and price! I'm glad that I had coverage and never had to use it. Some would probably say it's a waste of money, but it's all in the viewer's eye and opinion.

These people run two different databases between Auto Shield another scam company and CarShield the mother scam company. They use two different databases and claim that a car rental approved for a repair is not valid for reimbursement if sent to another shop for repairs. They are a scam company trying to rip off poor people that have to keep their car running to make a living. Their customer service is rude beyond reason with threats of hanging up at any chance they can because they know they are ripping people off. DO NOT USE THIS SCAM SERVICE!!!!

We're sorry to hear this, however, we have no idea what you are referring to.

I filed a claim with American Auto Shield and in order for them to make my repairs they had to terminate my contract! And reimburse me for the tear down of my engine! Now during my claims period they suspended any action I could take on my account because it was being reviewed by their legal claims agent Nathan **! We came to an agreement to be reimbursed. Now mind you my account was being reviewed by their legal team so I couldn't have my car towed to the other shop that came out of pocket and CarShield was still charging me monthly fees while they weren't letting me use service in my contract! Now remember Nathan ** said I'll be refunded and he would reach out to their legal department at carsheild.

So in short they refuse to refund me the 3 months they was charging me and not allowing me to use the service for repairs and keep misleading the BBB when I file a complaint or just flat out refuse to reply! Going forward I would recommend this warranty service to anyone because I would be ashamed like I am now to let them how they take advantage of middle and lower class and hid behind the face's of celebrities to steal our money! And don't have the decency to return your call even within the 48hr wait period. I've called them 12 times and only got two return calls and both calls were to tell me they're keeping my money. It's like someone doing ** and using carsheild to buy their **.

CarShield response

We are sorry to hear this, and we do apologize. We are just the marketing company. When American Auto Shield sent over the void for the contract, they advised to cancel it with no refund due, so we did what they advised. If you do not agree with their decision, you would need to be in direct contact with American Auto Shield. If you need assistance getting in touch with them, don't hesitate to give us a call.

I purchase CarShield I’ve been waiting to repair my vehicle for over 2 months still no results. I will inform the state of Rhode Island attorney general’s office and make a complaint informing them regarding my contract with CarShield.

CarShield response

We're sorry to hear this. We show that the reason for the delay is because claims requested a service record that was on CarFax for the same day you set up coverage, to verify what was going on with the vehicle that day and verify mileage because the mileage in CarFax does not match what you gave us when you signed up. We show that a record has now been received and is currently being reviewed by the adjuster. They will reach out when they are done.

Customer service is non-existent. I'm on my 3rd transmission in a year. The first two times I was without a vehicle for 3 months total. This time is still to be determined. I was told initially a year ago that it was a remanufactured transmission. After these numerous failures, I knew that couldn't have been the case. I talked to 5 different people who would not tell me where the previous parts were sourced from. The last supervisor I spoke with told me they were used transmissions and then hung up on me.

Finally sent an email to attempt to talk to someone who would actually help, got a response that it is their right to determine what parts they provide. I understand to a point, but with a known issue on this transmission, they are not repairing it and holding up their end of the contract by putting in used junk with the same internal issues. Call CarShield, they will tell you they are not responsible for the terrible customer service and it's an issue with American Auto Shield.

Call them and they just don't care. Bad practices all around in my opinion. If you are searching for a decent aftermarket service contract, run as far away from CarShield as you can. Also, take a trip over to their website.. they only display the good reviews that they pull from other sites. Won’t find anything negative there… seems a little one sided to me.

Just very disappointed. I passed extended warranty with The dealer. 1st time I need to use you I get denied. AC went out, mostly all the parts are covered except The Discharging hose. Now I have to come out of pocket. And not feeling very fond of Car Sheild right now.

CarShield response

Sorry to hear there may have been confusion about your coverage. We can only cover the parts listed on your policy. Hopefully, we can help with your next repair.

She has excellent customer service. She was very nice, professional and understanding. She needs to be rewarded. I have called several times. Temeasha was so very helpful and explained information. Please recognize this representative. She made sure to ask if I needed any further assistance.

Car was to be removed from the policy end of February. Was not! We were charged for two months. Call to Kelsey in customer service resolved this issue. Have, in the past, been satisfied with the service. Thank you again!

Customer service was very efficient, very helpful in a timely manner. My first time experience that I have had so far is excellent. They provided information on my vehicle right away. They were very helpful to the mechanic and my part was covered. In closing I am very thankful for the fast authorization so my vehicle can get down.

They approved my order fast in a hurry and make sure if I had any questions it was taken care of, quick response. This was the best thing that I purchased, Car Shield because if I didn’t purchase CarShield, I wouldn’t be able to pay for my car to be repaired.

The people I talk to on the phone were very knowledgeable and professional. I would recommend CarShield to friends and neighbors. I believe their coverage was very good but pricing could be better. Other than that my experience with car shield was a good one.

I was very pleased with the customer service, and they gave me a affordable help that I needed and I also love Vivica Fox Ice-T. I seen the commercial and I think it makes plenty of sense to have coverage.

Two or three Repairs needed and handled with a minimum of time and conversation necessary to get the car back on the road. Service people were knowledgeable and courteous. We were extremely happy with our experience with Car Shield and look forward to the same in the future.

My experience was great. Received a lot of calls back to make sure that everything was ok. Put car in the shop on Thursday. Haven’t heard anything back from Mercedes yet so I’m praying that everything is ok. Not sure how CarShield work. Just need to just the process.

It’s been awful. My car has been at shop 3 weeks leaving me having to borrow a car. As a policyholder I have yet talked to adjuster and you have to talk to someone new each time you call. There is no communication between your adjusters and repair shop CarShield wants to skimp on parts and I think this is because I’m a new policyholder but I’m covered.

CarShield response

Sorry to hear there may have been confusion about your coverage. We show that the claim has been authorized for over $1500. We can assure you, we do not skimp on parts. We use quality parts from reputable part vendors. We show your shop is overcharging for their part, which is why you would pay a difference if they do not let us ship ours. If you have any other questions, do not hesitate to give us a call.

The assistance I received today was very helpful and knowledgeable for the services provided. Thanks and definitely recommending to a friend or family member. I wasn't aware that there were services out here for extended warranty coverages on vehicles that aren't a scam. Thanks for an amazing interaction.
