I saw the commercial numerous times, saw it this time and immediately called. So glad I did. My sister and I got coverage and it is such a relief. The Rep was very helpful and knowledgeable, and provided wheel to wheel coverage for me and my sister.

I have used Car Shield several times with different cars. I turn to Car Shield every time my new car warranty expires. It's helpful to me that I just drive into my dealership, describe the problem with my car, hand over my booklet sent to me by car shield, and he takes care of the rest. I would recommend it to my family and friend.

Very nice and understanding to me. When I didn't have my fund in the bank they said, "No worries." I still have 30 days to pay or I can just pay 1 month until I catch up and also they changed my payment date to the end of the month which is good for me.

I got CarShield about three months ago for my 2008 F250 In case something else happen. Well I ended up with an oil leak. Took it Ford dealership and car shield will not cover and then they dropped me.
Hi Kenny,
The oil leak you experienced was from a part not covered under your policy so we could not help with that. The contract was voided because of the modifications to your truck. It was determined that there was no EGR cooler and at some point it was removed. Per the contract, any modifications should be mentioned to us.

I will recommend CarShield not to just my family and friends but to everyone. They’re so easy to deal with. I’ve noticed an oil leak from my car and immediately took it to local dealership and my service advisor took care of the rest dealing with CarShield claim department. Once they’ve diagnosed where the leak is coming from the service advisor called me and told me that CarShield approved the work needs to be done without any hassles. I highly recommend CarShield to everyone!

So far the representatives at Carshield have very good at answering all my questions. The plan seems to be too good to be true. I have not needed any repairs so I can not comment on that subject. But comparing carshield to other programs I have had it seems to be amazing. My other plans I paid anywhere from $5000 to $7000 dollars and they expired in about 5 years. One did replace a transmission but I had paid more than that into the plan. I was refused by one of them to replace a water pump that they said was ok but it wasnt and I had to replace it at my own expense. I hope carshield is all they say they are because it is a great peace of mind knowing I am covered. I hope I dont need to use it but if I do then we will find out! By my experience with other companies I highly recommend carshield.

Car Shield is a much better extended warranty on a used car than a car dealership, a car dealership will charge 2500.00 dollars for only 12 thousand miles, so 99.99 a month is a good deal, I don't even drive 2 thousand miles a year, my car is in very good condition, I've done the routine maintenance on my car already, so if anything happens like your advertising says and it will, well Car Shield is there for me, so it's peace of mind knowing I have this extra insurance on my car.

Hi Maureen,
It's important to understand what your policy is able to cover and what is cannot cover. We helped pay for the covered parts needed on your first repair, however, there were other parts needing repair that is not covered under your plan and we cannot help with that. On your recent claim, I am seeing we paid $419 for the parts that were covered. The rest of the repair work is not listed for coverage. Please contact us if you want us to go over your policy with you. We'd be happy to assist.

Carshield / American Auto Shield is a scam and RIP OFF company. Just the fact they use two names should say it all. If you have a Warranty with them cancel and save your money they will never pay. Have a 2010 GMC Acadia for 5 years with a Carmax warranty. They covered all repairs needed to the car over 5 years no questions asked. The Carmax warranty was to expire. Bought a Carshield warranty three months before it expired as we wanted to have coverage.
After about 8 months with no repairs the timing chains went on the car. Due to the engine and issues with the GMC Acadia motors the chains caused damage to cams and valves. Repair shop filed claim with Carshield / American Auto Shield. They make the repair shop remove my engine and strip it down for what they claim is an inspection all at my expense. The inspector comes 5 days later. Says will need a new engine and files the report that damage is cause of timing chains and engine needs replaced.
After two weeks and many calls to Carshield to find out what is going on am told they will not honor what their own inspector reported and will not the replace engine. Instead they have tried to use service records which are perfectly maintained from GMC dealers. Asked the repair shop if was used for commercial use, what does the car look like all in an attempt to find a reason to not pay. While on the phone with adjuster told they authorized the repair, then put on hold for 40 mins (while they find some other reason not to cover my engine) only to be told they will only pay for the timing chains. All other damage I will have to pay. So much for a trustworthy company doing what is contracted.
Now Carshield will only pay for replacing timing chains in a damaged engine, that may last 6 months. In addition Carshield has stated they will not cover any more repairs to my engine unless all the damage is repaired at my Expense. NOW I sit with a car with no engine that will cost me $8000, to $10,000 of dollars to repair. The repair shop as fought over and over with them to do what their inspector agreed was the needed repair. You would think a company that advertises on National TV Radio with big name Host and Stars would not be such a SCAM.
Cancel your warranty OR NEVER buy from them. Your money will be better spent as toilet paper as any warranty from Carshield or American Auto shield. This is a real shame as had Carshield been even half what Carmax warranty was I would have placed a warranty on my sons car. As well as recommended them to family and friends. NOW I know what a SCAM company they are. STRONGLY advise NEVER buy from this company.

Of course this rating is base on customer service. I have yet to use the vehicle warranty plan and hope I never have too but I also realize that is inevitable and I will eventually use it one day. In reference to my experience with customer service. I have spoken to at least four customer service agents now and every one of them have been friendly and very professionally. I spoke to one agent and was given a quote and she worked with me on a price that suited me fine. The call that we were on dropped and thought that was it and would have to start the process over again but she returned my call. When she couldn’t reach me she courteously left a message.
When I was finally able to call back, the information from the quote that she presented me was still in the system based on our conversation so I decided to purchased the warranty plan for my vehicle. I am pleased to be a Car Shield member and if their vehicle warranty service is anything like the customer care service then I will certainly be around with them for a long time to come. I even have family members and friends who have warranty plans with them and also speak highly of your company so thank you Car Shield serving us.

When I signed up for Car Shield I believed it was a good option for me. I was happy for the warranty they provided. Never missed a payment. Unfortunately, my car was totalled and I needed to cancel. They told me it would take 7 to 10 business days to refund. Once the 10 day mark came I called and they said they had to review my payment and then it would take 20 days to receive my refund. I wish the first time I called to cancel the manager would have made it clear how the process works.
Hi Kailea,
We're sorry to see you go and hope everyone is ok from when your vehicle was totaled. I do see there was some confusion regarding when you will be receiving the refund. While I do not have an exact date, I do see it is processing and truly appreciate your patience while this goes through.

Hi Dr. Valdes,
I do see we paid $865 for your repair! At times, we do offer part sourcing to help our customers save even more. Of course, it's up to you what parts are put into your vehicle so you have a choice whether or not to use it. It looks like you paid 4 months at $99 and we just paid $865 so you're ahead over $400 because of our service.

I was not happy with Carshied regarding my first monthly bill. I was told that my monthly payments will be $79 for each vehicle but when I checked my bank account Carshield had debit it out $89 for one vehicle and $99 for the second vehicle. When I call about this concern I was told that the payment had already been processed. I told the discounted price was not given to me till after they had processed the payment which I could not understand why they still could not reimburse me the overpayment. I figure whatever you discounted monthly payment should be that's what should have been debited out of my account and then give me the explanation that I cannot be reimbursed for the excess amount and it was my bank's decision.
I just don't understand that because my bank only took it out because Carshield submitted to them and it should be Carshield who should reimburse me the excess monthly payment you quoted me $79 for each vehicle. I was told that I got the discount because of some financial issues I was having. Well if that is the case why would you debit more out of my account then what I can afford and then will not give me back the overage. One vehicle they took out $89 when it should have been $79. The other vehicle they took out $99 when it should have been $79. Why can't I get the difference back so no I didn't understand why there was an issue. All of this occurred within hours each other. I just want Carshield to be fair and give better customer service. I checked the BBB reviews and they weren't that good but I was hoping they weren't true.
Hi Audrey,
I have your account up and on 2/19 is when you signed up with us and at the time, you agreed to $99 per month and it got processed. Then shortly afterwards, you added a second car to your account. That lowered the monthly price to $89 for both. So we ran $89 for the 2nd car. Then about 30 min after that you wanted to cancel but both payments had already run. It was at this time we knocked both monthly payments down to $79 to help you out.
So both payments had already been processed prior to us settling on $79 per month. Going forward, both cars are at $79. We do apologize for any confusion regarding this and request you contact us with any questions you may have.

Absolute scam!!! I would not recommend this company or product to anyone ever. Will definitely tell other to steer clear of you all together. I purchased an older vehicle and checked with you to see if it could still be covered. I was assured that it would be. That my transmission, engine, and drive train all were covered if they needed repair or replacement. I double checked with the person to make sure before I accepted the contract and started paying.
3 months later my transmission has gone out, and I am being told that it will not be covered because of some fine print in the contract. Now when I was sold this product I asked over and over what wouldnt be covered, and again I was reassured that all of it would be covered as long as I made payment and kept contract current. Turns out that is not the case and I am stuck with a non running vehicle and out 4 months of payments to your company. I will be sure to let everyone know exactly what kind of business you are running and how your selling techniques are very misleading and inaccurate.

I purchased the Gold plan from CarShield which covers the drive train. I pull a 40ft fifth wheel camper and figured it was a good idea. While 1450 mile from home the pinion bearing go out.. Carshield says, "No problem you're covered." Little did I know they are the good cop. American Auto Shield is the bad cop. The plot is they get you to have it tore down so you are stuck with no choice. They send an inspector to look at it. They not only look at it, they look at everything to find any loopholes so they can deny a claim. Which is what they did to me.
They sent an inspector to look at it. I was DOA when he got there. They claim everything was rusted. Let me tell you I was on South Padre Island and if you know anything about this area there is SALT IN THE AIR EVERYWHERE. Claimed all parts were rusted. Wow what a brilliant deduction. Truck sat opened up per their request. After 5 days till their picture taken got there what do you think happened. RUST. After many phone calls American auto shield said claim is denied. So after 2 hours of more phone time. Their master mechanic said he wouldn't have their policy... Wow that really says a lot about the class company he works for. By the way his name was Jeff. My advice to everyone is Save your money. Because if their mechanics don't believe in them, why should the public. We are not done here by a longshot.

I appreciate his support and his input to let me know that I'm actually going to be in great hands with Car Shield. I'm hoping to continue to receive this level of service.

My initial purpose in calling CarShield was simply to find what I would be charged per month. However, I was persuaded both by the need to protect myself and the very reasonable monthly charge ($99.99) to sign up. The CarShield contract appears to cover all the possibilities. Now, especially because I will be using my car for a long distance vacation this year, I can rest assured.

I ended up canceling my coverage on my jeep then realized I still needed it so I was able to get it reinstated after cancellation of two days. I was told that my vehicle may have been a total loss but then I was informed that it may be fixable so this is the reason for the cancellation and then the reinstatement request. Thank you so much for all your help.

Very pleasant and attentive customer rep. While I was ranting and overstating my issue, she calmly listened (without interrupting) till I was relaxed enough for my words to be understood in order for her to determine the best course of action to solve the problem at hand. Not only did she resolved the current problem, but she added the new CC# to the account (supposedly updated by the previous rep on an earlier date), and changed my due date all on a single call and to my satisfaction. Simply AMAZING!

My Wife and I have just recently returned to Car Shield after being misinformed by a competitor. We found that the competitor only paid a portion of the bill (30 %) and left us paying the majority. Fortunately, we were able to find a mechanic to do the work at a lower price. Lesson learned? Trust Car Shield.

The car seemed to be hesitating and then the engine light went on so I brought the car to my service station. They plugged into their scan equipment and determined that the rough idle and hesitation was caused by one burned out ignition coil and need for new spark plugs. This was a labor intensive job to get at the coils but the car was repaired by noon the next day.

Took my 2004 Audi A6 Quattro to be repaired and they said they will not honor my claim and will cancel as my car has a branded title this they NEVER asked me about at the time I signed up. Every time I call Car Shield I get a different story about my claim. And if my contract was cancelled on 2/3/2020 as one person told me why did the take another payment from my debit card? I come to find out this is a scam company just looking to con people out of their money for a contract they never intended to honor. I have filed a complaint with the BBB. I feel you need to refund ALL my money!!!!
