    Wait time was very unsatisfactory but service once dealing with a rep is very good. They were competent and courteous. There is also a bit of confusion between the insurance carriers that work in conjunction with your company. It seems there is an element of one hand not knowing what the other hand is doing.

    I asked to be sent paper bills monthly, but decided not to go this route. The rep was very helpful. He explained the reason for automatic payments is that customers may forget to send in the payment and the plan will be canceled, so there will be no coverage when they need service.

    Replace evaporator core and recharged system. We are new clients so we had never used Car Shield before and our car has never had any damage or broken things. The air conditioner was working fine and suddenly it was blowing air but not cold air so I took it to the dealership and the service advisor he didn't know what he was doing. It took a whole week for me to get my car back but it wasn't because car shield didn't do its part but because the service advisor didn't know how to do the claim online and did not send the pictures that were asked of him.

    Replacing a cracked radiotor in a Hyundai Elantra 2004. When dealing with the authorization procedure, the person I was speaking with, went to the trouble of telling me that I was being ripped off. I told him, I have been coming to this repair shop for over 10 years, and they have been nothing but good to me, and all they were trying to do was give me a lifetime warranty, which in the long run would have been a lot cheaper for me, because the radiator would have cost me nothing when the plastic radiators crack or go bad. He was rude, and abrupt, and never did say how much Carshield would cover of the lifetime warranty radiator, which I would pay the difference.

    The whole experience was quite irritating, since it was my first time, and the whole order would have been easier to understand if this individual would have been nicer. What accepted was a 12 month/12,000 mile warranty radiator, and since I paid the $100 deductible, the whole order cost Carshield only $210.92! Being the first time I used it, it was not a good representation of what I have seen on your T.V. ads!!

Customer service did not explain the whole detail. And I had pay for the deductible $. I think it a RIP off..don't pay electric parts. I want my money back so I can start looking for another warranty. From now on I will read between lines. Whoever heard you only cover inside of engine.

    I have a 1999 BMW 323I with only 107,000 miles and 5 days ago my Water Pump started leaking. So I took to my auto Mechanic and he said I needed a water pump. He tried calling in my claim to Car Shield and he called me back and said you need to call Claims because I dont have time to stay on the phone for 45 min. with other customers. I went to the shop today and called claims myself. It took 20min. for them to answer and when I handed the mechanic the phone it took 40 min. for them to approve the Water Pump. They then still left me with a bill of 240.00 that I have to pay. The shop does not want to fix anything else for me as long as I have that Warranty.

We offer online claim submissions which could help when the admin is experiencing high call volumes. We explained why you needed to pay the $240 which is because the repair facility is over charging on labor hours and would not negotiate down. This is a service we use to help our customers not overpay for repairs. Please let us know if you have any questions about this.

    Charged me $109.00 a month and when the car started consuming oil and took it to the dealer Car Shield said that's normal for cars over 90,000, but could not verify that information with the Chevrolet manufacturer. Then when the transmission cable broke and took it back to the dealer, the deal said Car Shield took forever to get back with them and when they did they said they don't cover that. They also don't cover anything electrical with the transmission either. Why am I paying them $109 a month for basically no warranty. When I called to cancel the contract the customer service rep. told me they have to charge a $75 cancellation fee. I told her your company is a scam and I will dispute and further charges with my bank. The lesson here is always get the warranty through the car dealer instead. I will never use Car Shield.

    Updated on 07/24/2020: So I submitted a claim on 6/10/20 for repair of my vehicle's A/C condenser. My repair facility has been in contact with the adjuster who was attached to my claim but they were disconnected. She (repair facility) tried to call back to reach them and was on hold for over 30 minutes. She reached out to me and I tried to call as well and I was on hold for literally 2 hours and 15 minutes. Now I will say I have been able to speak to customer service who stated they cannot give me the adjuster's info as they are with American Auto Shield. I was told my repair facility just has to call back and they will be forwarded to the adjuster. Problem is, they are busy and have other customers so the repair shop cannot sit on hold for long periods of time. I don't see why the adjuster can't just call the repair shop considering they have their info.

    I have not been contacted about anything regarding my claim and it's been over a month. I have been paying my monthly membership but have yet to receive service. Unacceptable. There should be some form of follow up with the customer considering I am the one paying for a service. There have been 90-100 degree days as of late and I am riding around with no A/C in my vehicle for over a month. Highly upsetting and I need my vehicle repaired.

    Original Review: I submitted a claim back on 6/10/20 and I have yet to hear anything from anyone about my claim. I've spoken with Carshield's customer service who informed me my claim was accepted by an adjuster but there was no way to contact the adjuster about the progress. Isn't the adjuster supposed to contact me? It has been almost a week and my car needs to be repaired. I called claims directly and was on hold for OVER 2 hours! That's unacceptable.

    Hi Maya,

    Thank you for your patience. I am showing the claim is pending. Typically, the adjuster works directly with the repair facility. The admin, American Auto Shield, is working to cut down hold times and we truly appreciate your patience during these times and hope to have you back on the road soon.

    It takes forever to get someone to answer the phone and it feels as though you all are going to take your time finding a reason to reject the claim or wait for me to tell the shop to fix the truck - seems like a game. Not a good feeling.

    Refund for warranty never used. First of all I'm disabled, and on a fixed income. I first put 99.99 down on the 2007 Rendezvous on 2-25-20 in the amount of 99.99, my car had 131860 miles on it, so on March 2,2020 I decided to pay an additional 1139.88 till May 2, 2021 and when I took it to the mechanic he said he would to even touch the car, because it was completely rusted through and unsafe to drive, when I got the car to the junk yard on June 11th, 2020 I had 132137 miles on it, they gave me 400.00 for the car. When I called Car Shield on a refund they said they would only give me back 904.91, and that was on June 11th 2020, so I would say they owe me and additional 334.96, when I asked the Car Shield rep about what was being done with the other money she said that she could not give me an answer, so CAR SHIELD is pocketing the 334.96, in my opinion only that is stealing! I had only put 277 miles on the car.

    I would not recommend anybody to buy any kind of warranty from CAR SHIELD, yes they do a lot of advertising on TV but that's about it, don't make a mistake of paying CAR SHIELD money cause you won't get it back, I would give them lower than an F rating, if I could. CAR SHIELD said they hated to lose me as a customer and would be there in the future if I needed another warranty, they are something else, this is my opinion only. Read the other bad reviews about CAR SHIELD, some of the other reviews say that CAR SHIELD goes out of their way not to pay for a claim, I say that CAR SHIELD goes out of their way not to give a full refund on a warranty that will never be used, it's bad enough that I'm without a car now, and CAR SHIELD keeping money that's not theirs!

    I made a bad mistake going through CAR SHIELD, don't make the same Mistake that I made, cause if you pay up money and have to junk your car be certain that Car Shield will keep your money and only give you a pro rated refund, so of the 1239.87 that I paid Car Shield, I will only get back 904.91, and Car Shield will pocket the other 334.96, what would you call that? Do the math, and they are walking away with my money and not even giving it a second thought, think about that.

    This is the second review I have submitted regarding the above listed claim and again state that Car Shield customer service is extremely poor. On 06/09/2020 I cancelled my contract and received an email stating no additional charges would be made to my bank account. The following day I reviewed my account and discovered that a charge had been made on 06/09/2020, the same day I was advised there would be no additional charges. A call to customer service resulted in 46 minutes on hold only to be disconnected. The second call finally reached a young lady in customer service who advised the charge had been made prior to the cancellation. I asked how a charge could be made on the same day I cancelled and had received an email stating no additional charges.

    The answer was vague and when I asked for a refund I was told she would have to check with her supervisor and asked for my phone number so that she could call me back...No call received! I have to say that my experience with Car Shield revealed that customer service is merely a name and not a place where customers can go with concerns. I would strongly suggest that anyone looking at purchasing extended warranty coverage on their vehicle should not consider Car Shield and look instead for an insurer that listens to customer concerns and provides timely assistance.

    CarShield didn’t pay for any of my repairs and they keep stalling on my tow charge by needing to “review my address”. CarShield has my address. So they call me from a “private” phone number and asked me to call back but didn’t leave a call back number. So when I just called the customer service number they had to refer me to another number. They can keep the $120.00 for the tow. They probably weren’t going to cover the tow bill anyway. All in all my repair cost $1750.00 and CarShield paid not one penny. WHO DOES THAT? LOL.

    The advertisement on Car Shield is good but it doesn't tell you that you have to have a pre-repair item faxed over to your company and the music and voice mail are very long and does not send your phone call to where you leave your name and phone number but just plays the same music over and over and then, the people you talk to tells what is needed and then, the next person tells you that you are not covered because of not faxing the pre-repair work that needs to be done!!!!

    Hey Suzanne,

    Sorry to hear there was confusion about the claims process. In the future, have your repair facility determine what the cause of failure is. After that, have them give us a call and we can determine whether the repair is for a part listed for coverage. If it is, we'll send a check to the repair facility. I hope this helps clear any confusion but please let us know if you need anything else.

I called back with correct mileage then they called me back saying they has around 166,00. I couldn't put 20,000 miles in a week maybe in a a few months cause I do use the car a lot and travel Frequently. Then they called and got it correct After me getting the inspection the day after I bought the policy.

I even compared my old policy with their policy according to him and he agreed that they covered all of what my previous company covered. A couple months later when my Mercedes Benz was taken into the dealership, they denied my claim. So I requested an adjuster, they still denied my claim even though the salesman said it was covered. I called a supervisor who outright lied, telling me she heard a recording of my conversation and the salesman never told me any of what I had claimed. So I asked to hear the recording and she refused and said, "Take us to court and the recording will be revealed then" and the unprofessional female (not a woman or a professional) hung up in my face. I DON'T RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY TO ANYONE!!!! SAD AND PATHETIC.

    I seen the commercial on tv and it sounded like a winner on top of the fact that my extended warranty had just expired. I called and spoke to Alec **, he was very helpful and patient with me. He answered every question without hesitation. He went over what was covered and what was not. I have not used my policy as of yet, so I can't say whether the claims area is just as easy as the call was. I will review at that time. I do like the fact that I have 60 days for a full refund if I do not like my purchase as long as I don't use it. :)

    However, I read the reviews on Google and I started second guessing myself whether I made a good decision with this purchase. I called back and spoke to Derrick, he was understanding and gave me all the answers I needed and assured me that I could indeed have a refund if I was not satisfied. He referred me to Consumer Affairs and the reviews are definitely different. My advice is to ask questions, understand what you are paying for.

    This is the best coverage you will ever need. They were super helpful and had no problem when it came to repairs needed for my car. I would definitely recommend them for anyone who doesn't have a warranty on their automobile.

    For the repairs, I need on my vehicle. Needed major repairs. Said that was not covered! So what's the use of having a plan that I can't use. My tierods and wheel bearings that needed repair $1250,84 later, makes me think what's the sense of paying for this. And still, more to come.

    I was with another warranty company and for some reason decided to switch to this company. The man I originally got the policy through was extremely nice! I decided to keep my other warranty because I didn't know that I only liked 1 payment and I would still be insured for 3 more years. I told the lady that I might consider coming back to them then. She was not at all co-operative! She kept lowering my bill and didn't want to give me a refund and it was the day after I purchased it.

    The other warranty company I had for 4 years on 1 vehicle and 1 year on the other vehicle was going to give me my money back with no hassle since I hadn't turned in any claims! Then today after a week when I was expecting a refund, the money was taken out of my bank account. I told her that she was being pushy and that my original company that was willing to fork out a lot more money than her was very nice about it and not pushy at all. I also told her that she was making me uncomfortable by being so pushy! She said that they didn't have any competition. I said yes ma'am you do.

    I was told to look on the Consumer Affairs website and I did. I told her that my company was ranked the same as hers! Could she just please give me my money back please? She acted like she processed the refund. Yet it came out of my bank today on Saturday and it was Tuesday of last week when I talked to her. So, this will be put on BBB! I don't trust a company when they keep lowering your bill to a ridiculously low rate that you know isn't right and then tries every stall tactic in the book to not give you your money back after a day when I know I had at least 30 days!

He worked with me and the Chevy Dealership service person (Bob) to ensure my problem was being resolved. They spoke very highly of Shay's diligence in working with the dealership, which was a first. Per the dealer service advisor (Bob) the "extended warranty" company doesn't usually get that involved with the dealership, but Shay did. Shay

    Why does Car Shield not pay any part toward a Ford brand alternator? The generic alternator, which Car Shield approved, has a 6 month warranty. Ford brand has a 2 year warranty. Iss Car Shield that cheap? The Ford part would cost $200.00 more if I pad for it myself, but it would be worth it because I get more from it. I will really think about Car Shield when I get my next car.
