    Hi Sean,

    As of 10/7 I am showing your claim is still pending. It appears we have reached out to you and asked for some records. Also, the repair facility will need your authorization to disassemble the transmission to determine the cause of failure. If this claim is approved, we would pay for this expense. Please contact American Auto Shield if you have any questions about your claim.

    I went to my dealership today to have a repair down on the sunroof of my car. I told them I had CarShield to help pay the bill and was informed that they don't honor carshield anymore. When I asked why, they said that for the last 6 months or so they were having trouble getting paid by them so the GM of the dealership said they would no longer accept them. They are a big name dealership here in NC. What good does this warranty do me if the place I take my car to for servicing doesn't accept them?

    The worst decision I ever made was to buy policies with this company; best decision I ever made was to cancel them. Wish I had done it a year ago -- or better still, that I had NEVER bought them to begin with! This company cost me thousands of dollars in premiums, and when I finally needed them, they only paid me a small fraction of my repair bill. I paid 6 months' worth of premiums upfront in a lump sum for two cars, and thereafter they deducted almost $200/month in premiums from my checking account -- but every time I called them for a question or a concern, they told me my policies were "backed out" and I had to go through a rigmarole to prove to them that my policies were still in force. LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE TIME!

    When I finally asked them to cover a repair bill for me, they not only told me again that my policies were "backed out", they told it TWICE to my mechanic when he called to discuss the bill with them. At one point a CSR promised to have a supervisor call me that afternoon, but I never received a call from a supervisor. I called the CSR back the next day to find out why, and she told me there were notes in my file from the supervisor all about the call she had just had with me -- which never took place! And they don't pay you the amount of your bill, they pay you what they THINK you should have been charged by your garage, based on what they claim are national averages. Well, I live in Appalachia, where everything is CHEAP, and they claimed that my bill was almost $100 more than I should have been charged -- so for a $339 bill they only covered $156 of it, after all the premiums I paid them!

    I wasted THOUSANDS of dollars in premiums on this scam, and I lost it all. Some of the CSR's were nice and tried to help, but the supervisors were either non-responsive or rude. One supervisor essentially tried to bribe me into not writing bad reviews about CarShield by offering to refund some of my premiums! DO NOT BUY POLICIES FROM THIS COMPANY! THEY ARE A BUNCH OF CROOKS!

    My car has been at Cottman transmission for 10 days it took 4 days for the inspector to go to the shop. 2 days to hear from Car Shield. Cottman was told to drop transmission and open it up. My car is sitting there now 4 days still waiting. I found online that the Transmission Module for the 2009 model was recalled. Cottman told me that the labor to drop the transmission is not covered by insurance and Car Shield knows that $450 Cottman also requested a different representative as they have had to wait nearly 5 days for a response. I asked Cottman to test the Transmission Module. I am still waiting. The price for extended warranty is great. But when the agent laughs when he told me what will be covered it was very disconcerting. Volkswagen does not accept this warranty.

    When I called to purchase this warranty I was told that as long as I can provide proof the oil was changed it would be fine. I specifically told them we changed our own oil. We have the receipts as my husband worked for a dealership. 3 months after we purchased the policy the timing chains went out. They denied the claim because they said there was minor sludge in the engine-- the car is a 2008 w/ 140k miles--it's an old car. ALL old cars have minor sludge build-up. They said that we did not have the mileage written down for EVERY oil change- this was not in the policy that we had to have mileage.

    They do not have any intention of ever covering a claim if you do your own oil change. They told the service writer they denied the claim due to no mileage on the oil changes. They told us a different story - sludge. Of course they aren't going to tell a mechanic they denied it because of sludge they would have gotten told EVERY car has sludge. The inspector told the service writer the engine was fine. They did nothing but lie. This is a fraudulent company that never had any intention of following their contract.

    Hi Lola,

    Sorry you feel that way. You signed up in late June with us, and that amount of sludge would have been there prior to that date meaning there was a lack of maintenance done. Not every claim needs to provide receipts but in this case it was necessary to verify that you had in fact had oil changes done. We're happy to go over this with you in more detail.

    Original Review: Sept. 26, 2020

    It’s been a week since I have had my 2013 Chrysler 300 towed to dealership after it just started leaking red and pink fluid. Dealership checked out vehicle. Said it needed radiator and thermostat and they contacted Car Shield. Car Shield says they will send radiator from their warehouse and not use dealerships. Also they will not cover thermostats which dealer wants 401$ plus 1014$ For radiator. Car shield only wants to cover only 2hrs of labor which each part is 4.5 hrs of labor.

    Ok just when I thought it couldn’t get any worser the dealer calls me today and say that they removed my radiator and noticed the fluids were coming from water pump and they need to call car shield and see would they cover that! OMG I feel like it was the water pump the whole time and dealer did not diagnose my car problem correctly. I hope things get better.

    Hi Lakisha,

    First, sorry for the delay. The inspector was waiting on the repair facility to remove the oil pan prior to coming out. In terms of your actual claim, when sludge builds up in the engine it can cause it to fail and lockup. Per your contract, signs of engine sludge would be cause for a denied claim. You're welcome to contact American Auto Shield if you and your repair facility disagree. We, at CarShield, do not handle claims and have no control over the decision.

    Carshield will not stand behind you when their contracted auto warranty company avoids paying a claim. I have paid my premiums on time faithfully and now that my car desires work I'm being told NO. The rep even asked why are they refusing to pay because she didn't see an adequate reason. She was heartbroken for me as I cried because I'm a mother of 3, furloughed and now have a useless warranty policy and 3k+ pending bill to get my car fixed. DON'T PURCHASE CARSHIELD if you can avoid it.

We are working to help you out as much as we can. American Auto Shield handles claims, however. I do also see a paid claim in June for $598.

    Updated Review on 09/24/2020: Do not add Carshield as a extended warranty company. I've been going through this process for 2 months. 1999 Lexus Rx 300 has been at Lexus Dealership and Mr. Transmission. Their main objective was to find out a cause of failure in transmission. My contract which states if anything happens over 500 miles, my transmission would be repaired if something happens to it, in which I went 507 miles of my contract and something internally caused my transmission to burn out. Now Carshield will not pay the claim because they feel like they are not liable, because an inspector made allegations as if something was going bad in the transmission before I added their coverage. In that case, they should have got the transmission inspected before allowing to add coverage to my vehicle.

    But that's not true. If you Google "1999 Lexus Rx 300 Transmission issues," that was a bad transmission from the dealership, and everyone who had that same year and SUV went through the same issues I had, I added the coverage just in case of somethings like this happening, I was thinking Carshield would be a company that would stand behind their warranty. From 2 month experience, no one needs to add them as extended warranty company because they only want your money to pay for your own repairs in the end, or they want to make it seem as if you're in fault.

    They should not be allowed to operate... Even the inspector has not given me a cause of failure and but my transmission specialist gave them a cause of failure and this is a 60 year accredited company in Greenville, SC. I had 2 adjusters. The first adjuster approved my claim then 2 weeks later after my adjuster resigned, another adjuster along with a specialist disapproved the claim... That's not a company anyone should be giving their hard-earned money to. They should be fined and closed down permanently.

    This happened on 9-24-2020 when my claim was not approved yet it was approved 2 weeks ago. I had a nice rep today that tried to find me a transmission to accommodate me but that is not my responsibility to have to pay for something I had warranty on. CarShield should not be allowed to operate within the United States of America. They owners need to be shut down and prosecuted for giving false information or need to inspect vehicles before letting consumers add coverage to their vehicle because they've really disappointed me with their excuses today.

    Original Review: This has been situation has been an ongoing situation for over 2 months, I am a Senior Citizen on a fixed income and I dont have any more patience for Carshield. I have a 1999 Lexus Rx300 that has a bad transmission. I first took the vehicle to the Lexus dealership, and it wasnt fixed because Lexus of Greenville couldnt give Carshield the exact origin from where the issue with my transmission started, (where does it say that when you first add the policy). Still had to pay Lexus for the info letting them know it was a internal failure.

    After back in forth with carshield/autoshield I was told to take it to Mr. transmission, because they want to know what caused the internal failure, Please Read this Thoroughly, the transmission has been torn apart, pictures were emailed over about the cause of failure that a hight mileage transmission with 160,000 on it was caused from. They are trying their best not to pay this claim that they are obligated to pay, this is false advertising, and they are the biggest scam artist that has ever conned me, just taking people's hard earned money and not approving their claims.

    These transmission in my particular vehicle go bad after from 75,000-150,000 miles so no matter what they say the cause of failure is which assume they are trained to say it's something that I did (wear&tear) or something that is not within the claim approving transmission guidelines the truth is they just scam individuals out their money.

    I did not know until I done further research and I googled "1999 lexus rx300 transmission issues" in which lexus should have recalled these transmissions but they didnt, so Carshield's late night advertising, allowed me to be conned into thinking I had additional insurance just in case my engine or transmission goes out, so me being gullible and having Old Age Carshield/Autoshield have taken advantage of me, they should have let me know they were not going to warranty my transmission before allowing me to add additional coverage on this vehicle for this Powertrain Failing Situation, before allowing me to think they were a accredited company that would pay claims in situations like this because I would have added a better extended warranty to my car for Engine and Transmission.

    The adjuster and a female supervisor know that my claim should of been approved they made it sound like they were going to pay the claim but I call everyday and they never return my call, and all the reps are able to give me is that it is pending. They are taking advantage of American Citizens making Mr. Transmissions do additional work then attempt to make it look as if the consumer is at fault but you can see from my experience that I done nothing wrong because it is thousands of individuals that had transmission issues with this suv, just Google "1999 lexus rx300 transmission issues" and it's there in plain site. It was a design flaw in the valve body. Also scroll down and enter some forums, such as lexusclub, carproblemzoo and many more, I have been waiting for what particular excuse they are going to give me to not approve my claim.

    Please Google "1999 Lexus Rx300 Transmission Issues" and you will see it is Thousands of 1999 Lexus Rx300 transmission issues, that was a internal failure that would just cause the transmission to stop and they were complaining to the lexus dealership, by me not researching my car until an issue happened I'm stuck having to stress myself out with Carshield/Autoshield about them paying the claim to my vehicle in which their Fine Line Print still meets the requirements from which they are supposed to get me another transmission.

    If not they need to shut this company down and pay all the claims that they have denied cause my situation where they are prolonging paying my claim trying to make me look like it's something I done but in reality it was just bad transmission that lexus put in that particular vehicle that should of been recalled but nonetheless carshield/autoshield should not be stressing me out by having me pay monthly or having to try to try to come up with money to fix my own transmission when that they are responsible for, I want my damn car fixed, if not I advise NO ONE to add carshield as an extended warranty, they are a scam.

    I should have researched carshield/autoshield before I allowed them to swindle me out of my cash, yet my situation is a perfect 2 1/2 month ongoing situation of why you should not add carshield as your extended warranty yet all they do is Brag about how many million they have spent this year on claims but my claim has been pending for almost a month for a situation involving a bad design for the 1999 Lexus Rx300 transmission....From which they are trying to make it look as if something that doesnt involve them paying for, from the fine lines customer service reps dont send tell you when you add them as extended coverage.

    I want everyone on Instagram, Facebook and every other social media outlet to know that they are a scam and all the adjusters try to do is work against you as if you are dealing with the opposing insurance company who wants extended warranty company that tries to work against you my advice is to add any other car extended warranty to your car. Just Do NOT Add Carshield from my experience....

    If my claim is not paid within a couple days I Promise I will try my best to let every social media outlet know how shiesty Carshield/Autoshield really is. Then what really insane is how they are making the hardworkers over at Mr. Transmissions in Greenville, SC do additional work breakdown a transmission to find a cause of failure just attempt to make it look as if the consumer caused the issue from something I did, which it was just a Bad Transmission that was installed into that particular vehicle, it's nothing I done that transmission just gone bad from 75-160,000, miles...

    I dont my money back from the months I paid I want my transmission fixed or face some lawsuits....I've already lost a job from this situation and I'm ready to take y'all to do what I have to do to stop companies like this from taking advantage of the common American Citizen no matter their race. If any lawyers have read this and are willing to sacrifice a lil time, penmanship and knowledge to this situation you will not be sorry from the outcome....This is my 2nd time writing BBB about this situation. First time never received a reply. Hopefully I will get a reply this time. My claim #**.....and my pain and suffering is making my heart even worst....

    I will be leaving Car Shield after this repair is completed. From the service, where none of the reps I spoke with (at least 4) had any idea what to do, to the actual work. My garage/repair shop had the part - a radiator - but were not allowed to use it given they were forced to wait to receive another 're-manufactured' radiator from Auto Zone in Memphis. This caused me not to have any transportation for at least 5 days longer than necessary. As I write this, I am still without a car because of this unnecessary situation created by Car Shield.

    One of your supervisors even told me that the reason you use re-manufactured parts is so that your customers (me) don't come out of pocket any more than we already are, to which I responded, I am paying for a service with CS which so that I won't have to come out of pocket at all. Otherwise, what do I need CS for? He had no answer. But, the conversation is certainly apropos, given CS says it is also not going to pay for some of the labor charges needed to replace the radiator. An all around angering experience. Which is why I am leaving CS, and telling the world about my experience via social media.

    I called the dealership of my Subaru Forester to make an appointment to repair my "Humming" noise of my rear end bearings and also my "Leaking" transmission. I gave them the number to contact CarShield and they completed the repair in a few days and when I went to pick up my car I was so surprised to have a bill for only $381.00 for the major repairs that would've cost me over $5000.00 if I did not have any coverage at all!

    Hi Leslie,

    I see we emailed over the contract the day you signed up. You then have 30 days to review your contract while you're in the waiting period. As stated on the call and on the contract, you must also surpass 500 miles from the day you signed up before you can submit a claim. However, we see you needed seals and gaskets and shock absorbers replaced. Those are not listed for coverage. Please contact us and we can go over your coverage with you and answer any questions you may have about it.

    Dissatisfaction with the person I talk to when getting the diamond package. I thought it would cover my convertible top when the motor quit working. I'm a very dissatisfied customer. There were things that I was not told. There were things that was covered. They misleading people on TV too. They would let me talk to anyone until they got my money and told me after the monthly payment was taken out of my account.

    Car dealership laughed when I said the word “CarShield”. $2600 NOT covered. Went to smaller repair shop — laughed when I said “carshield”. Spend a lot of money to be told NOT COVERED. Carshield is actually just a salesman. Insurance is through another company. Carshield could do nothing nor call and dispute the non coverage. Take your money and run. Truly a sham company.

    Hi Keith,

    Sorry to hear we could not help out on your repair. We have helped tons of our customers save over $1 billion in repairs. However, it looks like the repair you needed is not listed for coverage on your policy so we cannot help you pay that. You are correct, we are not the administrators of your policy. That is through a different company as stated on your contract. We are the marketing and customer service arm for them.

    I was told that my plan covered the power windows. First the master window switch went out. Not covered. Then the window regulator/motor went out. First they said it was covered, then after I got it fixed they denied the claim and said it was not covered. Other than the window glass itself, which I know is not covered, the window switches, motor, and regulator is all there is to the power windows. So if you don't cover all the components of power windows, then exactly what DO you cover when you say power windows are covered?

I asked them what if it take some time for my car to go in drive. That's it. To be denied after they (Car Shield) finance company tell me to take my Car to a shop I got towed 200.00. They paid 125.00 and I paid 75.00. Again they denied me my service. NOW I HAVE TO PAY for towing again which is another 75.00. That's 150.00 total. I also have to PAY FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC. I AM DEVASTATED AND DISGUSTED. My car wouldn't crank because it needs a starter. If I put a starter on my car would go. BEcause they don't cover that on my plan but the other 3 they DO. I also need a water pump and timing belt. If I said anything about a transmission a month ago SAY OK FINE BUT I JUST SAID SOMETHING ABOUT A WATER PUMP.

    NOW IT'S NOT FAIR TO BE DENIED ALL 3 SOOO.... In a total amount they took of my money was 471.00 oh and I have to pay diagnostic so that's 150.00 ==621.00 I personally would not recommend this company to anyone.
