As previously stated I was very pleased with Delores who cancelled. She was very professional, pleasant, and extremely knowledgeable. She cancelled my account after I advised her that I was going to get another car. However, because of the many representatives that I spoke with, and the last representative Delores. I was extremely happy with the service I received. Additionally, I will definitely use CarShield in the future when the need arises. Thank You.

If you have a motor that's leaking oil and it causes catastrophic failure that's $6,000 motor not counting the labor but you guys don't cover gaskets or seals and gaskets and seals is what keeps the motor, the transmission and their rear end working properly. You guys should be covering your assets and cover your assets you should replace seals and gaskets. It don't make sense to me. It's not cover seals and gaskets on your assets of a very expensive parts to replace when you could have had the gaskets and seals done very cheaply.

Seems lots of parts you need are not covered such as my timing chain cover and ABS control module which I would think would be covered in one of the categories.

Every step of the way, Carshield was helpful and provided clear procedural information to ensure an efficient process. My only comment is that when the Transmission repairs were completed, Carshield communicated directly with mechanic shop and took care of everything...nice, but I was not informed of the cost sharing/split from Carshield. Instead, I learned from the mechanic shop what was agreed to or approved by Carshield. That seemed a little odd to me as my contract is with CarShield and not the mechanic shop. All in all, it was a great experience. It was just a little peculiar to not hear from CarShield on my share of the costs and why.

Let's keep it short: Car Shield promises to provide you a level of comfort, should your car break down, that they will be there to take care of everything for you and get you restored with little hassle. Well, my truck isn't fixed and it's been nothing but hassle from the moment my mechanic filed the claim. I am using a trusted mechanic in business for 30 years that this company's claims representatives don't trust. My mechanic told them exactly what needed to be repaired on a broken AC compressor and they asked that each and every component be opened to prove their claims. This added layer of work would not be compensated, BTW.
The company then required an inspector to come out, which is fine, but even if he verified everything the mechanic said we would have to wait up to a week for the cheaper parts my mechanic says is unsafe. All of this added drama is so far extending my repair by up to a week and your contract only gives you 4 days of a rental (Of course).
The cherry on top is that the customer service reps for the insurance company through CarShield are awful. They openly admit they know absolutely nothing about cars and one guy even asked me: "What do you want me to do about it?" Well, nothing I guess, because after this repair I am dropping this company and putting my payment into a savings account. CarShield might save some money on a repair one day, but they are going to put you through the wringer to get the job done and your mechanic is going to hate you!!!

Car Shield is a Fraud company, I put in a claim on my BMW 2014 X1 after I had a oil change and the company saw a gasket leak. They gave me the service amount and the print out and ask me if I had extended warranty. I said yes car shield. THEY LAUGHED in a very snickering way and then said good luck with this claim. CAR SHIELD do not like to pay!. I chose to listen but ignore the service department person. I called car shield and told them about my situation. They said have BMW call them and they will take it from there. And here we go the madness begins. BMW called Car Shield, told them about the oil leak and the ordered a crank pressure test. Neither BMW or CAR SHIELD call me or contacted me about updates on whats going on, this is day 3.
I call BMW and ask them what's going on, all this time I thought they were fixing my car. GO FIGURE! BMW said to me that they sent them the test and then they wanted another test. Test after test, And guess who had to pay for these test. Me! $600 the car shield said if they don't approve the claim I would be responsible for the test cost. Day 6 no car no resolution in sight. I getting so angry now because Covid closed down my salon and I was using my car to do delivery and God knows a day missed is a day broke. Day eight after going back and forth with both companies each day all day car shield never gave in, they denied the claim saying that the test was inconclusive and they need more test. BMW was saying to me that there is no more test that can be done that would show them why the gaskets were leaking. THEY JUST WORE OUT! This is what BMW told me.
I call car shield and ask them why did they deny the claim and they said to me the crank pressure test was not completed and they wont pay for the test because the claim was denied. Day 9 I got to BMW and pick up my car of course I was very angry. It cost me $600. I got nothing done, the same problem exists and CAR SHIELD ask my why did I drop the policy. Are you kidding me? Pay another month for what. I noticed that all the five star reviews that I have read not one of them said that they had any service done to the car. They only thank them for good customer service.

If I could give a -0 stars I would. The only thing this company is good for is to take your monthly payment. Customer service will not work with you. The only thing they are trained to do is give you as much attitude as possible and transfer you so that the next rep can do the same thing. I have over 3 million followers on my Youtube channel and I will tell my horror story on there.
I need a new transmission for my vehicle. Everything they have asked me to do including changing the Carfax I have done for them. Now Carshield is refusing to pay because they do not want to pay more than $2800 for a transmission. It does not say this in my contract that they will only pay a certain amount. Trying to talk to Carshield is impossible. They will only transfer you to voicemail which NO ONE will return your call back. Since Carshield went back on their part of the contract I asked to get my money back and they will not do that either. RIP OFF>>RIP OFF>>>RIP OFF.

I purchased a warranty for my wife's car last evening while she was out driving. I was asked the mileage on the car and told him it was about 113, 250 miles. He said the computer would not take a round number and he would put down 113, 248 and my price would be $115.54 and I agreed, and purchased the warranty based on the price.. He told me to call back with the actual mileage this morning and it was actually 113, 658. When I called with the mileage I was told he wrote down 13,248 and because it was 100,000 more miles I now had to pay $142.04. I don't know if I would have paid that and feel like ti was bait and switch. I will give you the benefit of the doubt and say it was an error, but I am not happy about it and will continue the warranty for a few months to see how it works out.

I paid for the extended warranty on my 2011 Chevy Cruze for 2 months before I needed any assistance from it. My car ran hot one day with NO WARNING at all. I did not know what the problem was because I never had a problem with the car. I immediately drive me and my toddler child back home and call Car Shield for a tow truck. Get the car to a shop he checks it out and says there is motor damage because it ran hot. It ran hot because water pump went out. There was a recall on the water pump for that model car I was unaware of.
So I think I'm covered by Car Shield. They make me and the shop owner wait 2 weeks before giving us an answer on ice they would cover it or not because their system is down. And then refused to fix it because the car ran hot! WHAT!? How else would I have known the car was having trouble ? It never gave me any other sign! Not to mention I was told I would be reimbursed for the rental car I had for 2 weeks but DIDNT! Worse purchase I ever made. I will never recommend them to anyone! If I could I would give them 0 stars. Total waste of time and money!

CarShield officially sucks ass. I highly recommend for others, not to get it. Unless you want to pay out of your own pocket, a good portion of the costs and be out of a vehicle for weeks on end. I have the Diamond Package and was told the majority of everything was covered, like a Bumper to Bumper warranty, and only the regular maintenance items (like oil change, flushes, etc) wouldn't be covered. The pamphlet even shows all these things covered. I guess the fine fine fine print, shows all the things NOT covered, because I didn't see that part for this plan.
Come to find out, after my vehicle being in the shop for almost 3 weeks, they only covered the part and labor of what needed replacing but the fluid, gaskets and other needed items for that replacement were on me. And, even though they say they cover car rental, they base it on labor hours, so after having a rental for 7 days, they only covered 1 day of that.
And don't get me started on their customer service. That was a nightmare. Their agent never answered my call and rarely returned my voice mail messages. And even though they dealt directly with the dealership, they took forever to get in touch. My car sat a whole week at the dealership before anything was even began to be discussed on fixing it. Then, it took forever for them to decide what needed to be done. And then they required an inspection of what needed to be done, making it take 5 more days for an inspector to get out and inspect. Then another 3 days to approve and finalize it. NIGHTMARE! DO NOT GET CarShield.

Cannot believe this co. Is still in business. When people start catching on, you'll go under. Finding a way to weasel a way out of paying claims is ruthless. No thanks, I'll just put my $100 bucks in a savings account.
Hi Karri,
There have been no claims started on your account so we never had an opportunity to help you out on any repairs. I see on 9/17/20 you called us about a problem you had but we never heard from the repair shop about the diagnostics. We have helped millions of our customers save on repairs which is why the majority of our customers enjoy having us provide coverage for them. We are sorry to hear this didn't work out for you.

Took this policy out 6 months ago paying $110.00 per month. The policy does not state up front on which is covered. It is a scam on what is covered. Dealership told me up front they had trouble getting them to cover anything.
Hi Thomas,
We did not refuse to cover the repairs. They were simply not listed for coverage on the policy you were paying for. We do apologize if there was confusion about that and we do give you a 30 day money-back guarantee to review the policy and understand what is covered and what is not. We are also always available to answer any questions you have about it. We have helped our customers save over $1 billion in repairs and we wish we could've helped you, too.

After I traded my 2014 truck for a 2020 Silverado I no longer needed an extended warranty. I asked to transfer it to a 2012 Jeep my son recently purchased.

I signed up for a CarShield ext warranty, I have had factory ext warranties and a few after market. I did lots of research. Reading reviews, especially the negative ones and concluded that the warranty would work for me. The price started out at $130 a month and then after several times to "think about it" for a day or so the final price offered was $60. So take your time and get the best price and review the coverage. I had a previous ext warranty that covered trans axles but would only cover one axle for the term of the policy. Note that an adjuster will probably come out to review any large claims before your car is repaired to be sure it is legit and you can have several days of wait time before the repair is authorized.
Hi Robert,
Thanks for the review and welcome to CarShield! Each claim is different, and there may not be a need for an adjuster during your claim. Some claims are done in 1-2 days, others can take more time. A lot of it depends on communication between the repair shop, yourself, and American Auto Shield. We appreciate your honest review and please let us know if you have any questions about your policy.

Carshield did help me out with my repair, and proved to be a value, but it did not cover my entire repair as promised. My repair for my water pump came out to $2800, but Carshield only paid for $2000 of it. The process also took longer than it should have. They reimbursed up to 4 days for a rental car, but the process took so long to get going that the H2O pump repair didn't even begin until after the 4 days was already used. I have had to arrange for transportation for almost a week and a half now. I still don't have my car back. Customer service was very helpful and actually reduced my monthly payment for Carshield by $20 because of this hassle. Overall I am very glad that I do have this service because it has save me $2000 that I really didn't have. I still have to come up with $800, but it could've been worse.

Very disappointed in allowed coverage. Was told that I should never bring my car into the dealership as they always charge more than anyone else. Disallowed was part of the cost of the replacement part and part of the labor. If that is the case, you should state that before any signs up for your service.
Hey Barbara,
We use a nationally recognized labor guide and we can see when some repair facilities overcharge on certain repairs. If they refuse to lower their prices, that means they are overcharging you. This doesn't happen too often but we would recommend going to a different repair facility that way your out-of-pocket expenses will be less. This is listed in your policy and could be read during your 30 day money-back guarantee. Let us know if you have any questions about this.
