When I called the first time to cancel the CSR was very professional and offered things for me to check before I cancelled. When I bought my car they included an extended warranty. I checked my warranty for my vehicle and they were the same. That is the only reason I cancelled. Neither of the CSR's tried to pressure me into not cancelling. When my warranty expires I will most likely call Car Shield again. Thanks.

I recently bought a CarShield Auto Protection Plan. I thought it was a fantastic deal since Mike Ditka is on their commercial. Problem Number 1. The warranty does not kick in until you reach 1,000 miles and/or 90 days from purchase. I was told coverage started after 30 days. I did not find this out until I went in for A/C service and repair - it was denied because of the 90 day rule. I didn’t meet the mileage because I only had 800 miles and only 77 days. Long story, I did get a refund, however, it was pro-rated and they kept 2 months of payments please let me know if you have been mislead. I still want my 2 months of payments back, that’s all I want and CarShield refuses. I am open for any suggestions, maybe ABC 7 on your side?

I found the language of the contract to be confusing (like a lawyer's language). The instructions recommended saving records and I am not good at that. I'm 85 and beyond struggling with language.

Haven't really had to use it yet, but it's 79.00 a month covers everything. My repair center looked it over and said it covers a lot and to me 79 a month is better than a bill for like 2500 and then maybe another 1200 a short time later. Rather pay it. This way it's 100.00 deductible, even covers computer panel with radio, and Bluetooth etc.

Respect the promise from my contract #: **, approve my claim! The denial of my claim is subjective and it is not based on the contract. The adjuster was using his technical interpretations to deny the claim instead to respect the contract as was written because my part which failed was part of the contract but the denial was not part of exclusion.

Updated on 01/14/2021: I am extremely disappointed in CarShield. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone and will in fact tell people not to go with your company. I've heard from a couple of dealerships how terrible your service was and know I've experienced it. I have your top service product and it took weeks to hear back from you if you would fix my Yukon. Only to find out you wouldn't cover my transmission issues. Very unsatisfied and a major waste of money. I paid for your warranty and still had to pay out of pocket for repairs on my 2017 Yukon.
Original: I am very disappointed in the actual service I’ve paid for. When I call the customer service person they are very nice but nothing gets done. I have the top tier plan and my Denali is sitting in the shop for two weeks with a broken transmission. No offer to get a rental car and no response from the adjuster. The dealership says the Carshield doesn’t often pay for repairs. They have stopped taking your warranty because of these situations. I would not recommend Carshield to anyone.

My experience has been nothing but unpleasant in every aspect. I've had have two claims, in which parts was supposed to been covered and I ended up paying out of pocket. My mechanic received the ok on the work, and was told what was covered and still I ended up paying out of pocket. It seemed that I could never get a direct answer to my question, when speaking with a representative. That's until I spoke with Nathan on reimbursement. I emailed Car Shield my invoices on the 22nd of December and still haven't heard heard back. Very disappointed! Nothing as advertised...

On 12/21/2020 at 6 pm I was in Brooklyn 11229 zip code, parking my car started to send a “check coolant level” message, I checked the coolant pump (after the car cool off) and I noticed the pump was empty. I tried to fill it up and the liquid spell on the floor. Then I called CarShield and spoke with CarShield’s emergency representative, she asked me for the location of the car and where I want to take it to?
The car was at 11229 zip code and the mechanic’s zip code I choose to go to (4 blocks away from the Mercedes Benz maintenance service) is 11101 zip code, after she asked me the addresses she gave me the “News”: first that her system calculated 25 miles (which is absolutely ridiculous) cause the shortest distance is 13 miles (local route) and the longest 24 miles(making the whole Brooklyn and Queens round). Also by regulation the a tow truck can not take my car by highway or parkways. Second and more important, CarShield does not cover tow truck service for more than $125 and my 25 miles(wrong system, wrong calculation) quote was for $425 or the cheapest $375, although I have to pay $300 or $250 out of my packet or call another company on my convenience.
I took the cheapest one and the driver took the local route, and charged me $255 cash only (no even the $250) + taxes. Then today I’m waiting for the mechanic tell the diagnostic to CarShield to see if they going to approve the work. I’ll be updating my review to let you know how is going!

I took my vehicle in, because the heater wasn't working correctly. The dealer said it was part of the switch, and possibly the blower motor. CarShield said the switch wasn't covered, and the switch must have damaged the blower motor. They said that if a non covered part damages a covered part, then none of it is covered. Why would the heater/ac system be covered, but not the switch that turns it on? It's just another "loop hole" for them to slip through.

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.

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.

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!!!

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?
