Customer service was awesome but the coverage available on silver plan was crappy. It hardly covered anything. Also for the price it was not good for what was covered. I had an older car 2004 Toyota.

Their customer service plain stinks. They sell me a policy, and never want to deal with you. They sold it to me, not their subcontractor. They are ultimately responsible for my satisfaction. They failed to disclose certain things to me, they failed to tell me I had 30 days to review it. They failed to produce a paper copy of it for me, ever. They failed to call your subcontractor and fix my issue. They failed in EVERY way possible. I would never recommend them.

CarShield contracts you to a car warranty company, good or bad and that's the extent of their involvement. If you have a problem getting service with the warranty, "and you will", they do absolutely nothing to help. In my case, the warranty company was United Car Care Inc. They supported their decision to deny my coverage and cancel my contract of one year, stating I gave them incorrect mileage when registered so therefore I was never covered. Yet I paid monthly for a year and a service I was never covered for. I requested a full refund. CarShield did nothing to try and resolve this denial. In fact they seem eager to dissolve my contract and hand me a prorated refund. I contacted the CEO of United and was granted a full refund of all the money they received from me. CarShield claims to be there for you, when your car needs repair is fraudulent. Join them at your own risk.

It's great to get a warranty before car start having. I look into this 'cause I seen the commercial so many times.

CarShield cancelled me because we had a conflict in the contract. When I signed up for it, it was fine. Then the car had a problem so I took it back to Chevrolet to get it fixed. CarShield paid for the first time they got it fixed, but there was a problem. When I took it back to Chevrolet, they discovered that there was another problem so they sent the guy out to look at the car. But they didn’t approve the work because I do Uber with this car.
I tried to talk to them about it and I explained to them that their contract needs to specify Uber drivers. They’re doing it in yesterday’s world. In today’s world, we have Uber, Lyft, and different things going on that people use their cars for. When they had asked me the question was I gonna use it for commercial, I paused because I didn’t know if they considered Uber commercial. It’s my personal car, and I’m choosing to do what I do with the car. That doesn’t really fall under commercial and that’s how I explained it to their guy.
The contract should specifically state out Uber, Lyft, or any kind of food delivery services. Then when a person will say, “Yes, I do Uber,” then it could be for a different price. They kinda messed me up because if I knew that was the case, I could’ve gone with another company, and I still will be with that company. Now, I got more miles on the car so it’s gonna cost me more for the extended warranty on the car. But I don’t think there’s a problem with CarShield itself. The guy did come out and I didn’t see anything wrong with the company at all. I just think that the wording in their contract needs to be improved.

I'm a recent customer; my subscription starting in Jan. 2019. I recently made my first claim. I made a procedural error and it's unclear whether the repair work is covered. It's a special case. I'm happy, however, because there is a special consideration process through the review board. I'm still trying to decide whether or not to continue my subscription. Like most people, I could use my monthly subscription to help pay down debt. Regardless of the outcome of my claim, I like the idea that special cases can be given special consideration.

I had a nicer vehicle that didn't have a warranty and if something happened, it wasn't gonna be a cheap fix. The warranty is more of a little extra protection and for peace of mind. Setting everything up was an easy process. It was all cut and dry and the rep was great to deal with. The experience was great and everything was as advertised. You pay your monthly payment and if you have an issue, just take the vehicle to a certified mechanic. Then they come out to verify if what the mechanic is saying is true. I'd definitely recommend CarShield.
I had an issue in the top end and the bottom end of the motor which made it incapable of being rebuilt. It had to be replaced. Getting the claim filed was easy. We took it to the mechanic and he did his thing. CarShield sent out their representative to double-check and look at it. It took a couple of days, but it went really smoothly. I had to pay my deductible and I got a brand-new motor.

I opened a document with "Personal and Confidential", and "Important" marked above the address window on the envelope. There nothing else on the envelope to identify what this was or who it was from. So I opened it... Inside was a marketing letter addressed to me with solicitation of coverage for a car I'd just bought. WHERE IS THE HONOR IN THIS? Is the product not strong enough that they have to revert to these practices to trick people into opening mail? It worked on me only to get me to open it so I am the fool, but not foolish enough to buy so I ask them how effective this letter was, really. If the goal was to trick me into opening this "important, personal and confidential" letter then it worked.
I don't know about you but there is too much "personal and confidential" information available out there on us all. I take great offense to being tricked into opening a letter from a company who stoops to deceptive marketing tactics to get their mail read. When I called the number and asked for the man whose name was signed on the letter, of course, he was not available. Trickery. CarShield, you have sunk to new lows and have ultimately sold yourself out. This is like throwing a baseball through somebody's window and not having the balls to sign your name on it. Shame on you.

The auto warranty that I previously had only went to 70,000 miles and Carshield went to 125,000 so that was the main thing why I went with Carshield. I got the same coverage but with more mileage for less price. However, it's not pretty good with Carshield. I called in and asked them if they covered a certain part on the emission. They told me that they didn't and I had to fix my own car. This very same thing happened with the first Cadillac I had and it was totally covered. This is almost like everything is the same, but CarShield wouldn't cover it.
For the difference that I'm paying, I just wanna go back to my Cadillac-provided warranty which I never had any problems with. It's not a big deal, but it took me about two, three hours to get to Carshield and I was hearing all that business. I explained to the guy that sold the policy to me that I was 75 and I didn't need to do any of that stuff anymore, and I wanted everything covered. Other than the exception of the tires or rims, I was under the impression that everything else was covered.

A friend has CarShield and it has been great for him. He recommended it and I ended up getting enrolled with CarShield as well and it has been amazing. Setting up everything was a good experience. The customer service was great. I did a quote online, then everything happened over the phone. When I filed a claim for a fuel problem, they took care of business. I took my car to the dealership and told them what was wrong with my car. I also let them know that I was insured on a CarShield extended warranty and gave them a contact number from CarShield. CarShield paid for everything. I gave a deductible of 100 bucks and it was all peaches and cream.

After I purchased the warranty I had an issue 2 months into the warranty. My 2011 Lincoln with just 50000 miles had seat belt light problems. They claimed the harness wore into and didn't break. They didn't pay anything on the bill. The claim was denied. In the warranty description it said in big black letters, the seat motor and harness was covered. They made all kinds of excuses not to pay. I believe they are complete scammers and frauds. I would never recommend this Co. To anyone. In the past I have been with 2 other Co's and they were the same. One was on my motor home at $5000. And the same thing was the case. The turbocharger failed and of course they claimed it wasn't covered at $4800. I don't think any of this type of Co. is honest. SAVE YOUR MONEY.

After many months of diligently paying this company, when my car broke down, they "naturally" denied the legit claim that was 100% covered by the contract. The shop owner where I had my car testified he's been working with this company for long time and they will do everything in their power to deny any and all claims. I called 6 times, and 6 times while waiting for a supervisor someone hung up on me. Sent an email asking to reach back (I'm still waiting for a reply). Time lost, money lost! Don't fall for it!

I researched the warranty companies before I decided on who to go with. CarShield had a lifetime warranty like a lot of them and had a good rating with Consumer Reports. Even people who had other plans said that CarShield was great. I got many calls saying, “We could do better in price and we could do better in this and that,” and I would tell them that I already have a warranty. I'm gonna try to renew it again, but depending on the price because CarShield is a little higher than some of the other people that I've researched.
I do a lot by ConsumerAffairs on what they’re rating, which was how I made my choice to go with CarShield. They're not the only people I use, but they are the most popular that most people will send reviews to compared to other places that do the same thing. They seem to have the majority of the people. So, if one company only has 600 and ConsumerAffairs has 3,000 and with the 3,000 if CarShield got an 80 and the other people have 500 and they only get 90, I can't go with that because the ratio is not as good.
When purchasing my warranty for a Q5 2011, the first rep that I had was incredible. She was amazing and very personable, the whole nine yards. She just bought a car herself and got CarShield for it. When I went to transfer the warranty over to another Q5, 2012 because some drunk driver totaled my car out, I dealt with two men and I wasn’t happy. When I bought this car, it was practically new and it hadn't been even out of the 50,000-mile for Audi itself. It only had 35,000. I originally had 100,000 and I already paid nine months into CarShield. The service was great and I had no problems when I took my car to be serviced.
The car was fixed, somebody was sent out and they looked at whatever needed to be done. That part was all smooth but the part that wasn’t smooth was that they’re gonna increase me six or eight more payments and the warranty will only be 75,000 miles versus 100,000. So, I asked the guy why I would only get 75,000 miles and why I had to pay an additional six or eight months. He told me that they had to pay $300 for something that I had fixed on the Q11, and they had another service for whatever. This car had two big issues and I'm sure the bill was well over $3,000 but all those things was factored into what I was gonna pay. And so, if I use my policy that I paid CarShield for, it's gonna cost me money if I wanna renew it or get a new one. So, that really didn't go over very well with me. I’m still about 20,000 miles away from 75,000 miles but I don't know if I'm gonna go that way again.

I received mail from CarShield about extending my warranty. I called CarShield for a quote. They wanted $129 per month for my 2007 Honda. I thought it was too much. Did the math, it is $1548 per year. If I save my money instead I can easily pay for my own repairs. Then, I did A LOT of research. CarShield would NOT answer my questions about who they have done business with (which dealers?), because when you need repairs it’s no longer CarShield, then it’s American Auto Shield.
I kept researching and learned that CarShield is banned in California, they are REVILED on BBB and they do everything they can to NOT PAY for a repair. They pick the most minor reason to not pay. Read the reviews on BBB. Some reviews on ConsumerAffairs are obviously fake. I think most of the five star reviews for CarShield are FAKE. This company is a scam! Do yourself a BIG favor don’t walk... run away from this company. A pure scam all the way. Don’t trust the reviews on this site!

CarShield is a scam and a bunch of unethical liars. Several employees told me I had coverage on my vehicle repair and that I was past my 20 day waiting period and was ok to move forward. In good faith, I made financial decisions due to the information their representatives gave me. Later, they denied my repair claim after the work started and after several days of vehicle rental charges had built up. That time cannot be rescinded nor can the work and expense be undone. CarShield took my money in exchange for coverage on a 5 year old used vehicle. When it came time for them to come through with the repairs they made excuses. They said the claim was denied because the bad part they previously said was covered, was a "preexisting condition". Even though, I started witnessing the problem when I made the claim.
Let me break this down for you. When you decide to cover a 'used' vehicle everything is "preexisting". That's the difference between "used" and "new". Why would I need coverage for a car that can never malfunction? This is the point of your existence. ZERO coverage and Zero claim payments were paid out leaving me with a very large bill. I will never recommend your company to anyone. CarShield is bait and switch/fraud/malpractice/unethical people. I only wish I had read all the reviews on BBB. This website is paid by CarShield and they hide all of the negative reviews. I had to search for the non-fake reviews and boy are there a lot of people who got screwed by CarShield.

My car experience some AC trouble so I took it to the Nissan dealership and informed them that I had CarShield.

When I got on the phone with the claims dept and spoke to a man by the name Mario he informed me that the air compressor would only be covered if there was not a leak that would've cause the air compressor to malfunction. He stated the only way the air compressor would be cover would be if the air compressor stop functioning on its own and that there were no issues causing this.
Correct me if I'm wrong. But if something breaks down in a car it's always because of an issue!!! Nissan stated they have never heard that a warranty wouldn't cover my air compressor and that they have dealt with many other warranties. So now I'm stuck with a warranty that's useless and $1200 less in my pocket for an air compressor. I would never give my money away to CarShield and neither should you.

I did a little bit of research and CarShield has gotten two notches above everybody with the review and comments from other customers. Filing a claim wasn't super easy because I have to call CarShield and I also have to coordinate with the service manager from Acura, but it was not hard either. I spoke to a CarShield representative three to four times, and I had a good experience in terms of coordinating with potential repair. She coordinated straight to the service representative and everything went well. The conversation was very short and very concise. She was pretty much knowledgeable with what was going on. She knew what she was saying and doing. She pretty much asked questions that were necessary to make this claim the quickest.
There was a little delay because of the parts. But other than that, it went well. It took less than a couple of weeks, and I got my car fixed.

I purchased a used vehicle from a dealership and immediately purchase a warranty from CarShield. I ask very specific questions to the representative as to what would not be covered. With that said I bought it and have made my payments. I recently had some issues with my rear end making some noise so I took the dealership service department and was advised there was several issues wrong with my vehicle.
After going back and forth for over 2 weeks CarShield refused to pay for any of the repairs that were more than 16,000 in repairs and they would not cover one item on the list. I am a widow and my income is fixed. The cost I paid to this company was to bring comfort in knowing that I was covered when in fact nothing was covered. Very disappointed that companies can advertise one thing and do when called. I didn’t expect them to fix everything but to deny every single item shows that they are not very honest and reliable for warranty coverage.

I heard the advertisement for CarShield on the radio and we didn’t have any issues when I purchased the warranty. I had a camshaft that went out on my car and I put the claim in. I went to the dealership and then, they ended up calling the number that’s on there. The rep worked with the mechanic to get things processed. The quality of CarShield’s service was good but the cost was expensive. I would've spent the money either giving it to CarShield or giving it to the dealership when my camshaft went out.

I contacted CarShield protection for our 62K mile C6 Corvette we've owned for 5 years which is in excellent condition and was purchased from a friend. I received the same "well-prepared professional sales pitch" other reviewers have reported. The first cost quoted was $135/mo. and after I stated that was too pricey the cost quote was incrementally reduced to finally $100/mo.
Prior to authorizing coverage I requested the contract to be emailed to me so I could read it, and instead they emailed me several paragraphs describing how good the CarShield protection....no contract was provided. The representative also said that I could purchase the coverage by giving them my credit card information, and if I decided that I wanted to drop it I could get a full refund within the 30 day free trial period. For me, that was a red flag. Cancelling a service can take many conversations with representatives, on extended hold, etc.
Their 5-star customer reviews only describe how nice the sales representative was and how they now feel happy that now have extended repair coverage. (Wait until they file a claim and discover that they have paid a lot of money, and their claim will be denied).

When I reinstated my service with them ‘cause my contract had run out, they gave me a date of when my contract would be in effect. I mulled it over then I thought I wanted a different date. I called them back and told them I wanted another date, and it was fine. I picked my own date for my payment.
When I had the engine and suspension fixed, I took it to the dealer. They told me what I needed and I told them I have an extended warranty on the car. I gave them my contract, they called CarShield, and that was it. The only thing out of my pocket was $100. It was a Friday and I got a loaner car.

I would run as far and as fast away from this deceitful company as possible. After reading my review you may agree with the companies overall determination on my claim, but that does not negate the fact that the customer service is horrible. They did to me the exact same things that they have done to other customers who have filed complaints, only to have CarShield deny these actions. They have also unnecessarily cost me a large sum of money that I shouldn’t have had to pay when it came to fixing my truck.
In October 2018 I purchased a 2016 Chevy Silverado Black Widow Edition truck from Mike Freeman Chevrolet in Fayette, Al. From what I have been told by the dealership the original owner bought the truck new from them and had it special ordered because of the color. He later traded it back in on a newer one. During my dispute with CarShield there was some misunderstanding on my part that I now have clarity on, but will discuss later on during this review.
Due to the amount of miles on the truck I decided to purchase an extended warranty through CarShield. I had heard it advertised on a local radio station that I listen to and in which 2 of my favorite radio personalities have them as a sponsor. I called a few weeks following the purchase of the truck and was able to negotiate the rate down to $89 a month. The individual I spoke with told me it was bumper to bumper. I authorized the payment and the monthly withdrawal every month on my credit card. I got the contract and stuck it in my glove compartment. I was irresponsible and did not look over it, which falls back on me.
Fast forward to Monday April 2. I take my truck in to my local Chevy dealership (Carl Cannon in Jasper, Al). The engine is making a noise and the AC has stopped blowing cold. I provided the service rep (Logan) the warranty info and specifically told him not to do any repairs till he got the approval from CarShield. He called back later that afternoon and spoke to my husband. I needed a new compressor and I had a lifter drop in the engine. The warranty was supposed to cover it and the work should be done by Friday April 5. I was extremely impressed and was getting ready to be the biggest spokesperson for this company. The key word being “was”. Friday April 5 rolls around and we check with the dealership. My truck isn’t ready and it's not been approved by CarShield.
Fast forward to the following week. We check back in on Wednesday April 10 and is told by Logan at Carl Cannon that we need to call Car Shield. He had attempted to call numerous times, was being placed on hold for long periods of time over the course of several days, and that the contract was ultimately in my name. I called and the original lady I spoke to told me that she couldn’t see any info on her screen about it. She asked if I wanted to check back the following day or if I wanted to speak to a customer representative. I choose to speak to the customer representative named Bob and was finally told that an inspector came out on Friday April 5. He confirmed scoring on my engine and they were having to wait on his report. The case was under review with customer relations. There is a clause in the contract for vehicles that have modifications, lifts or oversized tires.
Bob discussed how he could put me in another contract that more adequately covered my truck if this claim was denied. I commented why would I want to give this company more money for them to deny another future claim. I also encouraged Bob to find a more honest company to work for in order to support his family. I called CarShield back early on the morning of Friday April 12. The claim had already been sent back twice to customer relations and a determination had still not been made. I tried to explain to the rep that I spoke to that the truck was purchased new in this condition and that it came from the manufacture this way. He attempted to conference call my service rep Logan at Carl Cannon but was unable to reach him. My claim at that point had not been denied. He also told me that if I could get a Vehicle Build Sheet that this would help my case.
Very shortly thereafter I got a phone call from Logan. He had just gotten off the phone with CarShield and they denied my claim. He also mentioned how he had received a phone call during the time that he was speaking to them, from someone else at CarShield (which I’m assuming was the conference call I was on). Why would they tell me that my claim had not been determined but at the same time tell Logan that it was denied? On 4/12 I received an email stating that my contract was cancelled due to MY REQUEST. On April 15 I received a voice message saying that the coverage was cancelled and that $89 was being refunded to my card. Someone from CarShield would later call back and I would get to speak to them directly. This was the first time during this entire process that CarShield had called me. They reiterated that they were cancelling my policy due to the “modifications, lift, and oversized tires” that was on my truck.
When they said they were refunding my $89 I asked if they were refunding the rest of my premiums that I had paid. If they’re saying that the policy doesn’t cover my vehicle to the point that they deny a claim and then cancel it, then why would they not refund the rest of my money. She told me no, and that I had lied when asked while taking out the policy if the truck was on the lift. I was never asked that. I was so furious that I admit that I hung up on her.
So here is where I am at. Does my truck have a 6 inch lift and larger tires? Yes. Was I asked this when I purchased the policy? No. Did I know what was in the policy other than it was bumper to bumper, when I gave them authorization to bill my credit card, thus unknowingly agreeing to terms and conditions in a contract that I had not yet seen? Yes. Did I read the contract thoroughly when it arrived in the mail? No. Was the truck purchased brand new by the original owner in this condition and warranted by General Motors? Yes.
I have spoken to Michael Hixon at SCA Performance in Trussville, Al in order to gain some clarity on the process. The following is how he described it to me. SCA is an approved upfitter for General Motors. They get the chassis from the manufacture and then build the conversion kit. Once completed the dealership purchases the vehicle from SCA and sells brand new to their customers. SCA is required by the manufacture to match the original warranty, which is 3 years or 36,000 miles. Again, this truck was special ordered and came off the dealership lot brand new.
CarShield, which isn’t really CarShield, it’s Auto Shield, says that the process submitting a claim is quick and easy. This is false. It took almost 2 weeks of me and Logan calling and being put on hold for long periods of time, and the only time I heard from them was when they cancelled my policy. They say you can use whatever mechanic you choose. Which is probably true, but think about this. You will need to go to a dealership that has multiple service reps who have the time to stay on hold for long periods of time. Smaller shops will not have the manpower to be able to do that. The flip side is that larger dealerships charge more per hour than other shops. So if your claims gets denied, then you’re looking at a large amount being charged.
While we are on this topic let’s talk about my engine. The quote from the dealership was $6482.89. I had thought about trying to take it somewhere else after CarShield denied the claim in an attempt to see if I could get the work done any cheaper. That was till I was told that I would still owe Carl Cannon around $1000. See CarShield required that the engine be broke down even though the dealership knew what was wrong with it and has since told me that it didn’t need to be. So regardless I was going to have to pay the $125 an hour rate x 8 hours for the engine to be broke down due to CarShield requiring it. After all the hassle I left it there and had Carl Cannon do the work.
I have since spoken to a lawyer. This companies practices are deceitful and something needs to be done about it. The kicker is that there is an arbitration agreement in the contract. So even if I wanted to take legal action against them, I would have to go to Colorado to do so which doesn’t make financial sense. So my plans are filing this complaint, sending a complaint to the radio personalities in hopes that they may drop them, sending this to my local news stations so that they may do a story and save other individuals from using this company, and telling any person that will listen to stay away from these crooks. If you don’t believe me I encourage you to look at other reviews and see the similarities with my story and theirs.

I had an appointment with an insurance representative which is about 10 minutes from my home. I was driving back and all of a sudden, right as I got into this construction zone, I heard this loud thud. I immediately pulled into a vacant parking lot and that's where my car stopped. It wouldn't go any further. I've noticed that when I put it in gear, it was rolling backwards so I knew it was a transmission. The people at the shop filed the claim for me. They called CarShield and found out exactly what was covered. While I was in there with the transmission, I happen to tell the guy about the problem I was having with my windows and door locks. He looked at my contract and saw that that too was covered.
I only paid $100 deductible. What I did not really agree with was the car rental because where I rented the car, when they first sent the transmission, they sent the transmission and then they had to send something else, which caused me to have to keep that car for a longer period of time. I feel that they should have covered the entire car rental because the holdup was because of them and not because of me. But I've always had a good experience with CarShield. They’ve answered my questions or they've connected me with the person that could answer my questions. Someone always got back to me in a timely fashion. I have referred them to several of my friends and family already.

Updated 03/21/2020: Leaking pipe and pump. This is my second claim where the adjuster did not cover the amount of time for the repairs. Two hours just over $300. The last time, I had this same issue after several telephone calls and writing a letter with my work order I received a check for an additional hours. That is not good customer service.
Original Review: I’ve had one claim with CarShield and they paid half of my expenses on it which kinda disappointed me. They were very friendly and upfront but they didn’t pay all the labor and all the tax. They didn’t pay for all the parts. I was at the assumption that having CarShield, the claim would be taken care of. It was a water pump on a Jaguar and they’re outrageously expensive. The people at CarShield was saying the dealership charges a lot. Why didn't they tell me to go some place else that doesn’t charge a lot?
I paid up the warranty until the expiration of it but I won’t buy it again. I’ll go some place else. The dealership also said they always had trouble with CarShield, that they nickel-and-dime things. I won’t recommend CarShield. I’m dissatisfied. It may be great for everyone else but not for me. I wrote them a letter but they didn’t answer that either. And it took almost a year to get the contract after I had paid for it. They said they mailed it three times. I never got it in the mail and I’m able to get other mails pretty well. The contract is fairly long and I printed it out on my printer.

Last year I had saw an ad for CarShield and thought that it might be a great for my aging car (2013 BMW 535). I called them up and got some basic information but they would do EVERYTHING they could to not let me off that phone. They made up stories to relate to me, gave me hypothetical horror scenarios, and kept coming back to offer discount after discount. When I tried to say that I would call back after speaking with my wife, they pushed even harder for you to commit. I ultimately did but quickly cancelled the next day and got a full refund since they left such a bad taste in my mouth from the experience.
Fast forward to now - a sales agent called me back last week and did the same spiel to get me as a customer again. This time I was very non-committal but they did the same thing (relate, worst-case scenarios, the whole bit). When they started to ARGUE with me to sign on, I hung up and blocked the number. Next day, ANOTHER agent called to try and sell me the warranty. I hung up immediately and blocked the number. TODAY, I get a LETTER in the mail making DEMANDS to respond back and sign up for their warranty, even a deadline! They are just the worst. I work in sales and they clearly have no concept of what going too far is.

Responded to a tv ad. Had some 1990s celebrities on the commercial. Sounded pretty good. I have 2005 F 350 crew with 141,000. I purchased it last August. It's in perfect working order. Following day a rep calls and explains to me the benefits of car shield, sounds great. Guy claims bumper to bumper coverage. Anything goes wrong, they will cover it. Well the price was $145 per month. I told him maybe in a few weeks. The dude kept going on and on about how great the coverage is and my truck is old and thing will break. I should give him my card # right now to cover my truck ASAP.
He then proceeded to to explain the blackout period of 20 days, I'm like "Ok, but I still have to wait. Money is waiting to come in." Then PRICE DROP ALERT. Took 25 off, then 10 more, then 10 more. He was down to $100.00, red flags around. Any company willing to drop $45 off a monthly charge is only interested in getting the card number, so I let my fingers do some internet research. Needless to say I'm not buying Carshield, I'd rather put that c note into a saving account a month and have a fund to repair my own vehicle.

I was having some problems with my car and I was excited because I knew that I had the coverage. I was trying to get some insurance when CarShield said, "Wait a minute." They looked my records up and said I already have the insurance. I was told that in fact, I have an excellent coverage. When I first got the car in 2014, the coverage was already in my payment plan. The coverage was paid out in 2015 and at that point, I had top priority to get my car done and anything I needed to be done on my car. That was last year and I turned the car in so it was good. The CarShield coverage was excellent. Vehicle warranties are very useful.

When I took my car to the dealer for a claim, I didn’t really even talk to CarShield. The car had an oil leak and it was leaking transmission fluid. I went in to the dealership, told them what was wrong with my car and that I had CarShield, and then I left the car. After that, they called me back and told me that the inspector was coming out to check it out. Then the dealer called me back and told me the claim was approved.

The price was originally the reason why I chose CarShield and compared to my previous provider, CarShield is a lot better, particularly in terms of the quality of service. It wasn’t hard to submit a claim. However, to get the work done was a nightmare. I had transmission problems and instead of having the dealer put in a transmission, these guys sent one from way back East. Now they’re telling me it should be here in a day and I’ll have my truck put back together in two days after that. But it took about 12 days just to get the transmission delivered out here.

My vehicle was getting older so I purchased a warranty in case it has any problems. It was actually my mom who told me about CarShield and the rep I spoke with was good. I was kinda leery because it was my first time doing something like that so I had all kinds of questions but he answered all my questions. Then I had a transmission issue that I filed a claim for and the people were really nice. I really didn’t have to do anything. They just knew what to do. They took my booklet, called CarShield and took care of that part.
They had a person come check the vehicle out and make sure that the issue was what it was. Then once they confirmed it, they went ahead and ordered everything. Then the vehicle went in and got fixed. It was a little bit longer than I thought but it was okay. I know it takes time and I’m not complaining. I’m just ecstatic because I do the monthly payment and I didn’t have to pay anything out of my pocket right there and then. It was already taken care of. That was really nice.

Purchased a contract through Carshield in October of 2018, finally had three issues that the dealership wanted $15,000 for in order to fix in May 2019. These issues were exactly why I had purchased this protection plan in the first place (replacement of A/C Compressor, rear differential replacement and water pump replacement). Instead of paying out of pocket I chose to rely upon my extended warranty through Carshield that I pay a premium to every single month. I filed a claim which took about a week to get results back only to hear that they would not honor my claim due to “pre-existing conditions”.
The A/C compressor had been something my service technician recommended I replace due to it falling apart in January of 2019 which fell after the “waiting period” that is outlined in your contract. They denied that claim with no hard evidence to back it up. The rear differential noise was something I had mentioned in prior services before the “waiting period” window, but it was never deemed a “failed” piece of equipment until the vehicle was inspected in order to file a claim. Also, the water pump was listed as a “pre-existing condition” because the first owner of my car had some coolant residue in the engine bay which led the inspector to believe that the vehicle hadn’t been properly maintained.
Don’t waste your money on this ridiculous gimmick of a service contract that Carshield and American Auto Shield are selling. They have the ability to deny any claim and spin anything as a pre-existing condition in order to cover their rear ends instead of having to take care of their customers. The person I spoke with from American Auto Shield about the water pump said that if the engine were to fail it would no longer be covered because of the coolant that had been spotted from the previous owner. What the hell do I pay this company money for? Don’t even waste your time. Absolutely inexcusable.

I liked CarShield's coverage and when I initially purchased it, I had a fantastic experience with the reps. I called them when I was gonna use the warranty and the rep told me what to do. She told me to drop the car off at the dealer and they would take care of everything. I've used the warranty twice and in both times, all I did was drop it off and give the dealer the paperwork, and I was done. The first time I used the warranty, CarShield took care of it right away. I dropped the car off, then the dealer gave me a car back with a dead battery. I turned it back in, dropped it off, the fused had blown and they fixed it. If it wasn’t for CarShield, I would be paying around $600 instead of $100. So, it worked out. CarShield gives me peace of mind. It is worth investing in.

Still, it doesn't bother me because anytime I call CarShield, they're right there and on time every time.
I started a claim with them in December. That time, before I left from Maryland, Fort Washington, I went to a Mazda dealer and had my car serviced so I could take the road trip. They told me my car was fine to take the trip and that everything was in order. By the time I got down to Virginia Beach though, my car had gone out and it was smoking. I had to call because I was scared to drive it since it started making this noise. So, I called State Farm and had them to tow my car towards the dealer. When I got there and I gave them my insurance information, they contacted CarShield. CarShield told them they were gonna send an inspector out. In a few days, an inspector was out there and the dealership said that they were going to do what they gotta do. CarShield was on the money to pay the people when my car was finished. I will refer them to anyone and stand behind them 100%

I saw the ads on television for Carshield and thought it was a good idea considering I spent over $12,000.00 last year on repairs for 3 vehicles I own. I called Carshield to enquire about coverage and pricing. The Representative was rude and pushy trying every day he could to get my credit card number. After an hour with him on the phone I requested a copy of the contract to read because quite frankly it sounded too good to be true. Well they did not send the info as promised but a different representative did call me back the next day, gave the same presentation but did send me the contracts to read. Again this person was relentless in trying to get my credit card number.
After another hour wasted on the phone I informed this rep the same thing I told the 1st rep which was that I wanted to read the contract and discuss it with my wife before committing. He continued to push for the card number and I finally told him that I was getting aggravated with his persistence and to call me back tomorrow after I speak to my wife and we read the contract. After we ended the call not 10 minutes later another representative called me back to start the presentation all over again. I found this very aggravating and told the third representative that I already made the purchase.
So I read the contracts they sent and it was full of exclusions which contradicted most everything the sales representative told me over the phone. I then checked the BBB reviews and recommendations for this company and was pretty surprised how many complaints they received. I have decided not to go with Carshield based on my research and experience with them, if you're considering this company I would suggest that you do your own research and be cautious giving out your credit card number.

CarShield's rep sounded pretty good. He had to know what he was talking about for me to get their warranty and I did. I've had one claim thus far and though it was not a long process, I wish I would have known I could have gotten a rental car. During the repair, one part wasn't the correct one so they had to send out to get the right one. I was without my vehicle for about two weeks. Still, I'd recommend CarShield. I'm satisfied with my extended warranty.
Thank you for the support! Please call customer service for any questions you may have!

Although rep could not rectify situation, she was able to confirm phone lines down at CarShield Canada and put a note in my file stating that I had attempted to call for authorization for towing. Extremely pleasant and courteous service!

Windshield wipers. Everything was good. No problems. I would recommend you to be my friend. I've never had a problem with Yael and the mechanic says they've never had a problem with getting their payment on the work they have done. The warranty on the work is also been good.
Thank you for your review and we look forward to helping you!

I just started the plan. And hope not to. But if I do it's nice to know I don't have to worry. CarShield will take care of my car and me because living in Arizona in the summer is dangerous for anyone.

The young lady introduce herself, she was superb. Well manner, explain why's it very important to have CarShield, not only protection for my car, in case something went wrong I'm cover. Not worrying about money to fix my car. Best advice ever.

Give her a raise. She was the best. She sold CarShield like a pro. I worked as a sales rep. for DirecTV & Charter and she blew me away. If I could give her a raise myself I would. She is the reason I will be coming back after my warranty.

Great Insurance to have!! My car needed the engine repaired and it was done as promised. I would recommend CarShield Insurance to all my friends or anyone that owns a car or truck that no longer is insured by the manufacturer.
We are happy to hear your service contract was able to give you that peace of mind you deserve! Thank you for the support and have a great day!

Account was on autopay. Didn’t realize I was paying for policy on car I had sold in October when I moved full time to Florida. Your rep was very helpful. Still have policy on second vehicle. Fortunately none er used policy but it’s good to know it was there.
