    Upon learning the A/C Condenser was leaking, my 1st thought was this covered. When I went to search for my contract and could find it I was getting anxious. Then upon searching the internet, Car Shield stood out. Upon calling Car Shield Customer Service I was relieved to learn I contacted the right service.

    We live in Hawaii and one of our relatives had a problem yesterday with his car. When he called me for help, I told him I have the CarShield plan and he forgot that he also signed up a few months ago so he called for assistance. His name is David **. It turns out the Toyota Dealer, Servco Pacific in Waipahu where he was instructed to have it towed to was no longer a participating repair shop with CarShield cause they had issues with repair claims mainly with the cost in shipping parts to Hawaii. He tried calling CarShield again but the office was closed, Hawaii is 4 hours behind in time. Today, he had to have his car towed again to a repair shop that is on the list. I just called and checked on my own plan & will proceed to find out the options available for myself to avoid this same result occurring with me then I will need to decide whether to continue with CarShield or not.

    I purchased a warranty from Car Shield back on June 26th 2020. After my conversation with the rep went pretty good I felt after he answered all my questions on engine failure, Heads are part of the engine cooling system transmission timing belt ETC. On July 15th 2020 my car was not running right. The temp needle started to rise so I pulled over to cool it down for 20 min. I then went directly over to the Honda Dealer which was less than a mile away. They did a Diagnostic check. They told me my fans were not working correctly that it was.

    The electrical heat sensor connection which they denied to pay for also the radiator needed to be replaced as well. Which at first they denied. Then they approved but they would not cover the electric sensor connector which is an electrical part which is covered in my contract. Then they informed me the heads needed to be repaired which they denied and the heads are covered. They are saying that it was caused by the over heating which I disagree on. I spent a easy 15 hours playing phone tag. When I asked for the Adjuster's name and phone number they refused to give it to me. I one of the agents I spoke with insinuated that I was a liar and refused to give me any info. but I spoke with Kyle and the Ayhesia who were pleasant to talk to. All I want is my car repaired so I can move on. My acct **.

    Thanks for the review. The repair facility says the head gasket was warped which is caused by over heating. We still need confirmation of a diagnostic to determine this, however. So the claim is still pending

    Car Shield states that they cover older and higher mileage cars but there is a catch that the sales people do not tell you. I have a 2007 Ford Freestyle with the CVT trans and I purchased car shield. Now that being said the sales rep I spoke with stated that with the Silver package this would cover any lubricated parts in the engine or transmission. I bought this car and decided that the warranty would be a good investment. I was wrong.

    Now that also being said I have no history on this car. I bought it cheap and used. Had no idea what services were done, how hard the car was driven. Well after having the car a few months the trans went out on it. Only put about 750 mile on it since I bought it. Well I was thinking to myself that I was glad to have purchased the warranty and that I was good to go. I had the car towed down to a shop that I personally used to work at as the head ASE Master Certified mechanic. I am certified and have been for almost 20 years. Well after bringing the car to the shop by tow truck they looked at it with me and after reviewing it on the lift we came to the conclusion that either the CVT belt of gears failed.

    Well the shop started the process of a claim. I figured this would be straightforward. I was so wrong. The shop was asked to fax over the tow receipt and several other things. They would call in and be on hold sometimes for over 45 minutes. The shop finally gave up and told me that I needed to come down and pay my bill and get the car because they did not have the time to go back and forth with car shield. So I paid the invoice of $200 out of my own pocket and had to pay again to have it towed to a different shop. This time I towed it to Ford.

    Ford wrote up the service order and got the car in to look at it after a few days. They have a trans tech there that has been working for them for over 30 years and he knows these cars inside and out when it comes to the trans. He came to the same conclusion as we did the first time. Either the chain on the CVT broke or the gears it rides on broke. Well we know that is a total failure and that the trans is now junk. After diag and shop time I have a bill of 450 bucks just sitting there with no repairs completed.

    Now Car Shield is stating that I have to approve a tear down of the trans so they can decide if they are willing to pay out on the repairs. That would cost $2000 for them to pull the trans and tear it down. Well according to the adjuster that I spoke with at Auto Shield that does the claims for car shield, he stated that until this is done there is nothing else that they can do. Well the problem is here that if they do not cover the repairs I will be out a total of $2200. The adjuster stated that there is about a 70% chance that he repairs would not be covered. So I was lied to over and over.

    The sales people just want to make that commission and not go into details with the customers about the coverage. It is a bait and switch! That is against Federal Laws according to my attorney. So all of this being said I am already out $700. I could have just brought this car over to a place that sells and installs used transmissions and had this back on the road for about $500 more. This has been going on for over a month and still it is just a back and forth with Auto Shield/Car Shield. If you have an older and higher millage car your better off either doing the work yourself or find a cheap shop to do the work for you. Do Not Buy Car Shield! They will just leave you with bills and laugh at you!!!! If you have a newer car and 150k or less get an extended warranty from a dealership!!! Works out to be cheaper and you do not have the hassles or deductible you have with car shield... We less stress and calls to make. Car Shield is a joke!!!!

    Cadillac CTS 2012 overheated. Gasket damaged. I had called 6/30/20 when my car overheated on the expressway. Tried to call car shield. No answer. Odometer mileage came on so I drove to the dealership. I spoke to Tracy on Fri. 7/3/20 3:45pm. She said she would call Naye @ Heritage. And I could rent a car at Enterprise if I can't get one from the dealership and car shield would reimburse me.

    I spoke to Nathan 7/9/20 4:30 pm. Coverage related. He checked with Dave at client relation who stated he would call Naye at Heritage. Naye said he never got a call. Nathan did give me a disc code xz12g45 for my rental car. I called Fri. 7/10/20 12:10 pm. Spoke to Brittany customer service. 12:25 pm spoke to Sophie who transferred me to claim related. 1:20 pm spoke to Leon. He stated that he need a diagnostic and I explained that Naye had held on the phone for several hrs. And I asked Leon if he would call Naye, but he refused. I need my car repaired and this is unacceptable. It will be two weeks Tuesday 7/14. With no results.

    We have had a contract with Car Shield since April 2020. When the air unit went out (JULY 90 degree weather) my husband reminded me that we had Car Shield. I called Car Shield and they shared with us the initial procedures...I then called Firestone and arranged to have car taken to them by appointment. I had to make plans to bring the vehicle and eventually had to leave it...I had to pay out of pocket for the diagnostic eval as well. Firestone attempted to contact adjuster and my subsequently learning that Auto Shield handles things from that point.

    Back and forth calls by me to Car Shield and Firestone. Placed on a queue hold....We learned the next day (quite inconvenient having no vehicle all this time). That next day started by my calling to make arrangements for a rent a car...was told that had to wait until they received a code authorizing a warranty rental....(How disappointing).

    I then called Car Shield and was told to call Firestone to have them put request in online. I called Firestone (by this time it is late in the afternoon) and this is when I was told my claim was denied....I called back to Car Shield and wanted to cancel my contract. I felt that maybe the next time I needed help I would be denied and utterly inconvenienced. My husband and I are pastors and have tried to handle this situation diplomatically as you can probably determine from this experience response. Please call me to share further my intent.

    When the repair shop tried to call you they were on hold for a long time, eventually they gave up and left a message to be called back. It took a few hours to be called back. After that everything went great.

    I have been trying to get information on a claim I made and was told on 6/26 that someone would call me on 6/27. No one called. When called the number turns out it was closed Saturdays. I called 6/29 and was placed on hold for 20 min before I was placed in queue in the CS side. The line picked up but no one said anything even after I said "hello, hello". Then the line hung up. I was at work and could not call back again. I have been trying to get a decision on a claim I made.

    My experience was good with Customer Service. I felt that I received a good price. The sales representative really went above to get me the price that I requested. The only thing that I have not received is a document showing what all is covered by this plan. I am glad that I have the coverage. It gives me a peace of mind. Thank You.

    CarShield adjusters recommend parts that are not correct for my 07' MB R320CDI. Also the time quotes for labor repair are significantly less than the actual time required to properly diagnose, remove failed part and reinstall the warranty approved new part. These deficiencies result in additional expenses above and beyond the required deductible that I am required to pay. Any assistance with this matter would be greatly appreciated.

    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!!

    My car was suppose to be fixed on the 24. It was was a covered part. My repair person Brian ** from Burns Auto spent 1 hour trying to get it oked by person who gives go ahead. WELL THEY NEVER CALLED HIM BACK SO I COULD NOT GET IT FIXED until the next day 'cause they never called him back with the ok. Not fair. I had to go without my car for 2 days 'cause of you all. You owe us and our repair man a big apology. This was uncalled for. Very upset how this was handled. The person who handled this should be told how to do their job.

    I was told it covered my engine. And other major part but when I move forward to deal ship they said it was only covered inside of engine cost 4800$. 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. All cars are made now with electric part and should be covered. So very disappoint. If they not going help me getting my car fix I need my refund back so I can get fix.

    I have to give Carshield a ???? because they were very helpful and explained the warranty to me to where I understood completely what I was getting and what it would cover. They were very professional and kept asking if I didn't understand anything and asking if I understood what I was getting. Overall a very satisfying experience.
