    I was always told that non-manufacturer warranties were basically worthless when you go to file a claim, and now I know why. After two years of payments and zero claims, I was denied on my first claim. I have owned a Range Rover in the past, and I was aware that the air suspension system on the vehicles was a common occurring problem. It is exactly because of that, I specifically asked the salesperson on the phone, "would my policy cover the air suspension on the Range Rover" and I was told yes. I believe the salesperson's name was Douglas **. I requested that the company pull the taped sales phone conversation, and call me back... which they failed to do.

    Now over a month later I just called them and was informed that they did listen to the taped conversation, denied that the representative said it was covered, and told me that I could not listen to it unless requested by an attorney with a court order. What do they have to hide? MARK LEVIN are you listening to this? I cannot wait to call into your national radio program and let you and the rest of the country know what a "SHAM" this company. Also, they love to talk about your ability to take your vehicle to the manufacturer dealership, and be guaranteed that they will use OEM parts... TOTAL B.S. Before the claim was denied they were already telling my dealership that if it was covered they would not pay for OEM parts but remanufactured parts only. SAVE YOUR MONEY and pay when you need repair.

    I took my vehicle to my local Toyota repair shop. I gave them my CarShield warranty information so that they can get it approved. Apparently my repair was denied because the parts were $500 more than they wanted to pay. American CarShield wanted to send Toyota an A/C compressor and clutch that costs under $300. I called all the auto parts stores in my area and all were $460-$600 range. I assume the parts American CarShield wanted to send are used or very poor quality. They (CarShield) want me to pick my vehicle up at Toyota and take it to a different shop. I have to go through the whole approval process again.

    Both CarShield and American CarShield have been pushing me off on several different departments. I even had a carShield operator give me the number to after hours customer service that doesn't exist. When I first purchased the warranty I was told that I could take my vehicle to the repair shop of my choice even the dealer. What they don't tell you is that you have to find a shop that meets their pricing standards.

    Many commenters do not seem to understand the role of CarShield (CS). CS is an agency whose purpose is to pair a person up with an extended warranty contractor that best suits the buyers' needs, based on car age/mileage, and what they can afford. In that capacity, CS is a benevolent, knowledgeable, and customer-oriented company. CS does not pay for the repair of a car but should an agency fall shot of CS's standards, they will go to bat for you against the agency. They offer a service and do so very well. I can certainly commend the salesmen, I dealt with for honesty, candor, eloquence, compassion and understanding. In particular, I will mention both Bryce and his account manager Kirk who were impressive young men who are impressive intermediaries.

    Customer Service is a highly stressful department for a human. I have never conversed with a more amiable, and service oriented rep than Georgette **. She should be training reps instead of working as one. Absolute attention to my concerns, needs, and questions. Made the entire interaction with CarShield a pleasant experience. I would hire her in my Pharmacy in a flash to deal with customers... What an asset to CarShield. I pray they appreciate her. Basically the same can be said for Jennifer whose knowledge of her company helped me to understand the basic underpinnings of what they strive to accomplish.

    After reading the contract offered to me, I decided it did not fit my needs and expectations. I determined this by reading the "specimen" contract offered by the agency, calling the telephone numbers listed in the contract, and taking notes of issues that bothered me. I was lucky enough to get Jennifer on my first call who encouraged the investigation, then Georgette on my second call who painlessly listened to what I had discovered and initiated a refund of my down payment to my credit card. She gave me a time frame for the refund of 5 business days and I fully expect it to happen just that way.

    These are good people trying to offer a benevolent service to peoples strapped for money, but don't blame them because you fail to perform due diligence and investigate what you have been told. With that, I thank CarShield for their novel entrepreneurship and assure them that, should I purchase a repair contract, it will be from them. There is none more candid and forthright in their dealing with customers.

    After hearing the ad on the radio I thought CarShield would be a good idea to have so I purchased a policy with them a few years ago for my Chevy Impala. My car met all the requirements. About 8 months after I purchase the policy I felt my transmission starting to slip. I took it to my local shop as I was instructed and waited for the adjuster to arrive. They showed up about a week later after I was done without my car the whole time. The shop gave the adjuster the keys and he left with my car for about 2 hours.

    When they returned with my vehicle they didn't even acknowledge to the shop that they were back and they parked my car and one on their way. One day returned with my vehicle. They didn't even acknowledge to the shop that back at the park my vehicle and went on their way. Later pictures stating that I had a old leak in a transmission line. They were starting to make it slip. CarShield refuse to cover you blaming it on 100,000 mile inspection I received 6 months prior. The shop owners assured me there was no leak before their adjuster took my car off of their lot.

    Shield. DISAPPOINTED WITH CARSHIELD'S SERVICE, MY TRUCK IS A DODGE DAKOTA 2005. THE ENGINE HAS BEEN MISSED FOR X REASONS, in the workshop where it is told me that it was because of a spark plug that made an explosion inside the engine. I really do not know what could have happened, but what hurts me the most is that I did not cover the repair or replacement of my engine. I take 12 days without a car asking for it. They are taking me to work to not make you spending a rental car to CarShield and waiting for a good answer from them, for now at the end to say that could not cover the repair because the engine that damaged the engine is not part of the coverage and cannot do anything. That great disappointment with that extended warranty security is the worst, should remove the commercial on the tv and do not deceive more people like I who confident in the coverage service.

    (Peace of mind.) It is just a false to trap to you pay the coverage, since I started with my claim I only had headaches and recovery by the workshop and the adjusters. Recently I made a demand for breach of contract and when I call to inform them, they tell me that no claim number appears and the day before another lady had reaffirmed it, which was the same number from 6 months ago.

    When I purchased my vehicle (almost 2 years ago) I also purchased an extended warranty. I haven't needed it in the last 2 years, thankfully. Recently I started getting these letters in the mail ''personal & confidential, Open immediately". Well this morning, on my way to work, I opened the latest personal & confidential letter as it said ''open immediately''. The letter stated it was time to renew my extended warranty. Now, given that it was 2 years ago when I purchased my initial extended warranty, I had no reason to believe this letter was the crock of crap that it turned out to be. I called the number listed on the letter, I spoke to the first rep, who ended up passing me off to another rep who kept telling me that my prior extended warranty had expired and I needed to add this one. (I kept telling him I purchased this service at the dealership.)

    Something that didn't sit right with me was the rep couldn't (or wouldn't) directly confirm that this was the same company that I originally purchased my extended warranty through. Keep in mind, I was driving to work while talking to them (therefore, couldn't dig through old files to confirm this was the same company I'd purchased my coverage from). Now given they (CarShield) sent me this letter and said things that led me to (or tried really hard to) believe that this was the company I already had my coverage with I finally gave in and paid the "down payment" because I am a single woman and do quite a bit of driving & am aware that anything can happen at any moment. They assured me that everything would be covered, like A/C, engine, trans, etc... I was shocked at their claim of everything being covered so I mentioned having my alternator replaced about a month ago.

    The first rep said "it would have been covered''. I mentioned that I didn't realize that because I didn't think an extended warranty covered alternators. She proceeded to ask how much I spent, I told her. She said I should have called because it would have been covered... (further trying to make me think they (CarShield) was my company). Something just didn't feel quite right so I decided to do some digging (unfortunately, AFTER I paid the $195 down payment). First of all, this is NOT who I have my extended warranty through!!! The rep on the phone should have avoided making the following statement before hanging up "If someone else calls you, tell them you already have coverage and hang up". This was in response to the last time I mentioned my prior purchased coverage.

    Again I mentioned several times, I'd purchased an extended warranty when I purchased my vehicle. So this jerk listened to me tell them several times, I had already purchased an extended warranty and led me to believe it was through them but time had expired and it was renew time. I went straight to their reviews and must say that I am shocked that this company still has a business license and more disappointed in myself for falling for their trick and deception! Reading previous complaints about customers having such a hard time getting their $ returned, I hope that won't be the case for me but I will strongly advise against this company. Their employees do talk to you very condescending. I am interested to see how my refund process will go with this company given the many negative reviews I've read.

    I would LOVE to be contacted by a reputable manager from this company with some sort of justification for this rather than see the lame excuse provided on the prior 1 star reviews. That is the worst customer service EVER! When you think corny ROMCOM movies that have some used car salesman bit, this company is what you should picture... Terrible way to do business. If someone tells you they have the service you are trying to push on them, don't say things to make them believe they purchased from you and give false idea. I HOPE all calls are recorded because I'd LOVE to have mine played before a judge!

    I purchased CarShield 1 year ago. I had 99650 miles on my vehicle. All they asked me at purchase, was if anything was wrong with my 2008 Hummer H3, and there wasn't. I am a 100% Vietnam Disabled Veteran that uses a mobility scooter with a lift on the back of my vehicle. I made an appointment to do the 100,000 mile service but my H3's transmission started slipping before my appointment so I had it towed in. Mileage was 108500 miles on the H3. I had everything checked with an oil change and all fluids were ok and full 2 mos prior.

    The adjusters did not want to cover my tranny saying I didn't have the 100000 mile service. Ashley, Mgr of the adjusters was rude and cold to the situation. CarShield said they could do nothing because all they do is sell the coverage. I cost me over $5,000 for the repair. GM said they would have honored the warranty even though I was 8500 miles over the service if I was still in warranty with them. I sent all service receipts to them. CARSHIELD IS A SCAM!!!

I told him that all I wanted was to gather information and then make an informed decision at a later date.

    I asked him to send me information through email or written correspondence and that I would take a look at it and go from there. He also asked me what credit card I would like to use today and I responded that I am not giving out my credit card because I am NOT signing up for anything. These people are extremely rude and aggressive. I had to hang up on him just to get him to shut up. I would not recommend this shady company to anyone!

    When I bought the car, I only knew of the dealership warranty. Then I received a phone call two months before I purchased stating that the extended warranty has expired. I kept getting phone calls soliciting me to buy one so I researched and found CarShield and I'm quite pleased with the service. The customer service rep helped me in trying to figure out what’s covered under my policy and how it breaks down. And then, the representative who took my claim walked me through the process and filled me in with all the information that I needed that they could possibly provide for me and I was satisfied with that.

    I filed a claim a little less than a month ago because my transmission was flipping and then it went. I took the car to the shop and it got fixed and the car is driving as new as possible. The claim rep also mentioned that I had a rental under my claim policy and I rented a car. He asked me to send them the bill but I forgot. But the point is, there are no worries and even though the car was in the shop for four days, I didn’t mind that at all. I am grateful that CarShield was able to help me get my vehicle back on the road and get me back to work. It's very important to have an extended warranty because you never know and I've recommended CarShield to several friends. I don’t wanna pay for an extra insurance but I don’t look at it as insurance, instead, what I'm paying for right now every month with CarShield is for peace of mind.

    I purchased a CarShield warranty because I had invested more than $5000 in repairs for my 2010 BMW 335d in less than 11 months. I made it clear to the representatives that I wanted everything possible to be covered. After having my warranty for nearly 3 months I began to get an annoying oil burning smell from my vehicle and my A/C went out. I took my car to the BMW dealership and they informed CarShield of the needed repairs (oil leak on intake manifold, blower motor needed replacing and turbo hose had a hole in it) before the day was over but for some reason it took CarShield more than 4 more business days, 6 days total, to reach out and inform me that they would not cover replacing the manifold. It then took them another 7 days to tell me they would cover the blower motor fix but not with genuine BMW parts and wouldn't pay for BMW certified labor, and they would not pay to replace the turbo hose.

    I was informed that in order to have the blower motor replaced I would have to pay the $100 deductible, $200 for the difference between the Autozone blower they are willing to pay for and $140 for the difference in certified labor. The total cost of the covered repairs would've been $597 and I would've had to pay about $450 of that. Everyone that I encountered at CarShield was rude and completely uncaring about my situation up until I was ready to cancel my membership. Best to not pay them $200 a month and save it myself for future repairs.

    When I first signed up with CarShield I informed them about the reviews I read but silly me I still try giving them a chance. I explained to CarShield representative that my mileage on my car wasn’t in mileage and it was in KM and I only went by the estimated mileage on my dashboard from my oil change. I also told the customer service representative that I was not 100% sure what the mileage was when I signed up. I never received a contract in the mail and I called several time and asked can they emailed me a copy and I never received it, I had to called twice this week after a month when I finally received the contract through email. I went to my mom house and my car wouldn’t turn over, called them. They told me to call roadside assistance, and so I did.

    I gave them my contract number and they couldn’t find my contract and told me I would have to pay and get reimbursed and I said no and called CarShield again. This was Tuesday. I didn’t get assistance til yesterday (Thursday). My car ended At Pep Boys. They said there’s a knocking and before I made them go any further I told them to call CarShield and tell them, what the issue was. They thought my car was in mileage and told me it was 187,000+. I told them my car isn’t in mileage but in KM. They estimate the mileage to be less than the 117+. What originally was on my dash board. Because the mileage on my car was calculated wrong from the previous mechanic CarShield doesn’t want to honor the contract anymore. And believe me I wasn’t surprised because I read all the reviews but I wanted to give them a chance and I wanted to be the 1% that gives them positive review.

    But unfortunately what they did was prove everything that was written on every negative review to be right. Let’s also add they really have poor customer service. When signed up they were nice but once there’s an issue and they have to pay, you get the nastiest attitude. The last customer service argued over 10 min after I asked to speak to a supervisor because they wanted me to send in a Mail in a cancellation letter for me to get a refund because it's over 30 days. She stated that was in the contract that I didn’t received until Tuesday of this week. When she FINALLY gave me the supervisor he was nice enough to give me the email address after I explained the above. But I would suggest not to sign up with CarShield because they would find ways on not paying for the car to be fixed.

    Save your money and don’t waste your time because it’s a headache to get your money back and right at this moment I have to pay Pep Boys out of pocket and I won’t be seeing my money anytime soon. Car-Shield please don’t even respond to this comment, because I will not be contacting you guys again and I really don’t have any interest in what you guys have to say unless you guys actually going to honor your contract but because I know better and that’s just not going to happen. I think everyone here should file a class action lawsuit against CarShield for breach of contract and false advertisement.

    I had a warranty on my car, but when it ran out I didn’t get it renewed. I had seen CarShield and I just got with them. Their certified vehicle protection specialist explained to me the different packages and I picked the package I wanted. They ran down to me how everything works and I was satisfied with them. I bought into it and pay every month for my package, and I’ve been with them since last year. When I made a claim, the only thing I didn’t like about it was they gave me a week for rental, but my car wasn’t ready in a week so I had to pay the rest of the amount out-of-pocket when I had to keep the car for another five days. But overall, they took care of the bill and I couldn’t ask for any better. And if someone asks me about CarShield, I'd tell them that they're still cheaper.

    I’ve had good experiences with CarShield. I had AutoAssure before and they didn’t cover things that CarShield covered, but yet I was spending the same amount of money. It prompted me to get with CarShield then. They are a lot better. I had called in and CarShield's representatives explained everything to me. They even matched the price of AutoAssure. And they told me when I would be able to file a claim if I had something that happened. Also, they told me that I had 30 days to figure out if I did or did not want the plan and if I wanted to upgrade. They were pretty nice. I call in to do my payments as well because it’s cheaper that way. I also like that they told me not to pay it off, if I wanted to, in one lumpsum payment. I’ll be calling in today so I can make my payment, and I like that they’re quick. I give you my credit card number, and it’s done. So, I appreciate that. With AutoAssure, it took so long to have to do so much.

    I had a claim with CarShield, and the dealer didn’t seem to have many issues. I had my car back in two days, which usually does not happen. When I dealt with AutoAssure, they always sent the adjuster out and I was without my car for at least a week every single time. So, CarShield handled it really fast. So, I like that because I wanted my car back. I feel more confident with holding on to my car since having CarShield because they covered so much. I recommend them all the time. I recommended them to my mother and to somebody else and they both signed up, too.

    I got a certified pre-owned car and I wanted an extended coverage more than what it was automatically coming with when I purchased it. A guy from CarShield called me and the price is right for the amount of extra coverage and the quality of coverage that I was getting. It was basic coverage and most things that could happen mechanically on the car. The guy knew what he was selling and he gave me the rundown. I had to squeeze a couple of extra years, and I made him put more mileage. We finally negotiated on a little bit higher mileage and year coverage. So, he was willing to work with me a little bit based on my needs.

    I had to use the warranty not too long ago and filing the claim was a fairly painless process. There was an interaction between the mechanic and CarShield, and although they didn’t cover one of the belts that was damaged with the claim, it was an $80 part. It would’ve been nice for them to cover it, but they covered about $1400 worth of damages. So, that, in exchange for $100 deductible, worked out my favor.

    I had a service contract on our car when I first bought it. The previous warranty company I was with only covered up to a certain amount of miles so I went shopping for a different company and I found CarShield. CarShield had the most reviews over any of the other companies. It was just that as far as what it covers, CarShield covers less than what I had in the previous company. Other than that, my experience with them had been fine and they seemed to be easy to work with. The warranty was more expensive than I thought it should be. But customer service remedied that when I called back to pay the account in full instead of doing a monthly payment. They lowered the price to give me a discount so it came down to where I thought it should be.

    Filing a claim was very simple. I just took the car to the dealership and they handled the rest. It was great and that was what I wanted. Everything was fine just as I had expected. I already have told a couple of people that I was happy with my plan with CarShield and I recommend it. We take a lot of family vacations and it feels good to have a protection plan knowing that when something major happens, I am mostly covered.

    Most of the factory warranty on my vehicle had run out and despite its age, I could still get coverage on it so I got a service warranty. I got calls from a couple of different places but I’m glad I got the extended warranty from CarShield. It only took a month for that coverage to kick in and I've only had to use it once. I called the number, spoke with the people at the dealership and everything was taken care of promptly. I brought the car into the dealership because I was hearing a noise and the low tire sensor was going off. It turned out I had a flat tire and they explained to me what was going on with the rear end of the truck. I had a problem with the bearings in the rear axle. That was no longer covered under the factory warranty and I told them I have an extended warranty.

    I gave the paperwork to a lady, she made a couple of calls and got back to me. That was on a Friday and I brought my truck in on Monday. They had somebody from the warranty company come and look at it and I had my truck back the following Friday. All it cost me was a $100 surcharge and the bill was over $1,600. I didn't have $1,600 lying around so the warranty was very valuable. I was very happy and I had a good experience. CarShield is definitely worth it.

    CarShield called me shortly after my service contract run out. I liked their service plan because I got 100,000 miles and it seemed like it covered a lot of stuff, so I signed up with them. Their sales reps were very cordial and they laid out the payment plan options, the cost of it, and the life of the service. They were also pretty responsive in sending me information and confirming everything when I decided to get it.

    Last month, I submitted a claim with CarShield. Their reps spoke directly with my mechanic and he said it was easy to get the information on what was covered and what wasn’t covered under the warranty with the repairs that I was getting. He only needed to spend a few minutes on the phone with them to get that, so their interaction went nicely and quickly. I had to pay additional fees because a couple of things weren’t covered under the service plan, like some of the brake stuff I got done, but as far as the main issue that was wrong with my car, which had to do with the transmission, all of that was covered. The warranty also required the mechanic to do a little extra preventative maintenance on that part, so that was pretty good. I wish more things were covered but what's covered now is enough. I see the value on having the warranty and I'm happy with my experience with CarShield.

I dropped my car off and the inspector had to go there to make sure everything was okay. My car was fixed and then he had to order parts for it. I could have gotten a car from CarShield at that time, but my son took me wherever I wanted to go. But next time, I will get a car.

    The warranty is $2,500 and they said that when I finish paying that off, then I have three years that I don't have to pay. So I told CarShield to let me know since I am keeping them.

    My vehicle stop moving while in gear, I had it towed to an authorized Nissan dealership, which diagnosed my vehicle as having a defective transmission. Carshield refuse to cover the diagnosis because they stated it was an electronic issue in the TRANSMISSION, which caused the transmission to become defective. And the dealership stated that it was a defect in the transmission that caused the electronic parts in the transmission to fail. Regardless the transmission failed which was supposed to be covered in my warranty plan that Carshield is refusing to cover. I would not recommend Carshield to anyone because of their immoral business practices.

    I was looking for somebody for a warranty. I needed one on my car since mine had run out. CarShield was recommended to me and I looked online to see their rating. My experience with them was pretty good. The vehicle specialist explained everything and broke everything down to me. Recently they fixed a problem that I had on my car. My lifters and camshaft had messed up and I was covered on that. I had to wait a little while because they have to send an assessor but other than that, everything was good. I just had to pay my deductible and that was it. That was like a $1,300 job.

    CarShield has refused to complete their part when it comes to repairing my wife car: So far $1800.00 in car rental fees, $110 in towing fees, and now accumulating storage fees from the repair shop. The operators at CarShield are useless when it comes accomplishing any progress in the process of repairing vehicles. I don't even know why they are in this business. Car currently sits in pieces at repair shop due to mandatory tear down for further diagnosis and inspection that was ordered a week ago (3/29/2018), and today 4/5/2018 I was told that they could not authorize an inspector to come and inspect what they wanted to inspect.

    At this point, I have no words and I can only laugh. CarShield has received Diagnosis from the dealership, specialist, and two separate Auto repair shops, and still they are asking why is the car not working. NOT MY JOB, I PAY, YOU FIX!!! It's like they don't understand their own business concept. Bottomline: CarShield is a continuing criminal enterprise pretending to be car warranty firm. To whom it may concern, FAIR WARNING: CARSHIELD WILL ABUSE YOU IF YOU DECIDE TO BUY WHATEVER THEY ARE PRETENDING TO SELL. 1st hand experience-stay away from this company.

    I hate writing this review. I've researched reviews on Carshield now and I've discovered there are 2 stages with very similar reviews. The first is of the ordering process. It's positive (like my own experience). The second is of those trying to have a claim paid, those are negative (like my own experience). I can pay to have my vehilce torn apart to see if the repair is covered and if not I'm responsible for any and all cost of the teardown and repair or simply putting it back together.

    From what they explained over the phone there is a 95% chance it won't be covered. That's not why I pay nearly 10% of my annual income for a "new car warranty" as the very nice salesman called it. That's a huge gamble! I'm not willing to take that gamble, my gamble is paying the high premium every month for a policy that said they would be there for me. I told the salesman upon purchase "I'm hesitant because all is good now but when I need you I'm afraid there will be some technicality and I won't be covered". He assured me that's not how Carshield works.

    Now that exact thing has happened; so unfortunately I've got exactly what I expected from Carshield. I called to discuss my situation and got transferred several times 2 times back to the same people that were supposed to "handle my situation". I'm frustrated even further because I've already paid well over the amount of my repair to Carshield, but still owe even more than that to fully pay off my policy. I have great apprehension going further with the new lack of trust I have with Carshield. They have not contacted me further even though I have reached out for more discussion on this matter.

    Dairyland was my company and I was looking through different insurance plans and I looked at CarShield’s plan and I liked their plan too. My idea was that I pay so much and they pay so much, and if I get an accident and it’s not my fault, insurance is going to pay for everything. I liked the policy and CarShield is a fair company and I wanted to deal with them. I wanted to overcome all the obstacles out there to prevent myself from getting in an accident. Their cover sounded right to me so I got it and I’ll work with it. My vehicle is my line to go to work and to come home. I did the setup process online and the person that got me to them is my brother. He was also the one that did all interactions for me.

    When I purchased my vehicle, I waited a while and I found out the transmission was really bad so I called CarShield and got it fixed. I like the quality of their service so far because when I brought the car in to be fixed, they were right there and looking at the transmission. I paid so much and they paid so much, and I got a brand-new transmission. I like how quick they were. Since purchasing their protection plan, I feel safer and I feel like I got somebody on my shoulder that’s helping me with different things. It was the best policy I could think of because with Dairyland, if I got hit and it wasn’t my fault, they would pay for everything. I would call them and they would jump right in. It’s very good for me to have CarShield. If there are any problems, I can call them and they’ll cover and take a picture and see what’s going on.

    I would tell my friends CarShield is a program that helps their vehicle and it’s a better thing for them because if they’re going to drive their vehicle and have a problem with it, CarShield is right on it. Like me, I rented a car for two days. I brought my car in and they said it’s going to be about five days. And it was only two days when I went and picked up my vehicle from being fixed. It’s going to improve and I’d recommend it.

And at the end said, "Well if you don’t sign today your loss," I tried explaining I would like information in writing to look at and study for myself. He replied, "Well I told you what you get," so I am like really you want me fork out money for something like this without anything in writing saying what I get before I sign!!! So CarShield if you like my business and anybody else’s first fire this guy and second get in touch with me and provide me with simple detailed information about what is truly covered in writing and let me make my decision without a rude push salesman who acts like he’s selling timeshares in Vegas.

    When my factory warranty expired, I started using CarShield. It has been such a long time ago when they called me, and if it was not for them calling me, I would have never known about them. The knowledgeable sales rep told me his offers, how much it would cost compared to other warranties and what it would cover. He told me how much I could save off purchasing the warranty.

    CarShield is almost like the factory warranty if not better. I just had some work done on the Equinox. We took the Equinox to the dealership. They looked to see what kind of warranty we had. They were saying how good a warranty that we did have because we had quite a few things done that some of which were under factory and then the other things were off. I used the warranty and it covered everything. For what I paid, CarShield is well worth it. It is nice to know that even though the factory warranty is gone, I still have a warranty that covers the car from bumper to bumper. If anyone is looking for a warranty that is for a vehicle after the factory warranty has expired, CarShield would definitely be an investment to buy.

    When I purchased the car, the guy from the dealership said somebody will write, but he didn’t say who it would be or from what company. But then I started getting letters from CarShield saying, “This is the final attempt. Your car warranty is running out and you should protect your vehicle.” I wasn’t looking into any company and I don’t know how they got my information but decided to go ahead and use CarShield. The vehicle protection specialist was doing his job and he told me that I could ask him a million questions if I have to. So, I kept asking him and he provided me answers. He was great and he was telling me about the product.

    I told him that I heard about scams like this stuff before where people will come out and say they have insurance or extended warranty. I was skeptical about purchasing this insurance but he made me trust what he was doing. I asked what their coverage was, and then he explained it to me, and I thought it was suitable for me. He told me that I would pay $140 a month, and I went ahead and did it. The entire package is about $3000 plus for the budget of this insurance I have, or $4000. He gave me several options too, so I took the best one. I did a claim with CarShield recently for my transmission. I was driving my car but from time to time, I would feel a little vibration and I was wondering what it was. So, I took it to a shop and they told me that my transmission might’ve been lifting or something. So, I said before it gets any worse, I’ll just have them take care of it.

    CarShield's quality of service is recommended, and I would recommend somebody to the company. I would tell my friends that CarShield is a legit and safe insurance company, and whatever CarShield tells them, it’s what it is. So, they've got to make sure because if anything is hidden, it’s probably because they didn’t read their contract. CarShield is solid as a company. If they’re looking into getting insurance or extending warranty it would be a qualified company because I’ve used them before. I just had the insurance, and I know that if I needed it one day, I would have it.

I need my car fix because I didn't know what was wrong with it. All I knew was it would not start. So they told me that it was my timing belt and that my timing belt on my 1998 Honda Civic Lx was broken and that CarShield wasn't going to cover it and that I was going to be responsible of fixing it myself. They sent out an inspector to the shop to inspect my car and that's when they gonna try and say I already had that problem prior to me putting my car in the shop.

    So CarShield company wouldn't cover my repairs or labor and they told me they wouldn't put me in a rental car either because it's base on what my contract say. I read my contract. So I went back and forward with AMERICAN AUTO SHIELD. They told me even if I would've waited after March 2nd 2018 to get my car fix. They still wasn't gonna fix my car regardless of the fact. The only thing I got was a 400 discount which is a month free from $130 to now $113.00 and that's it. I still would like a refund back of my money since they isn't getting my car fix.

    Great agent experience. Agent was very patient as I tried to figure out if I really needed a tow. I have only used it a few times already and I am super satisfied so far. My first experience was just as rewarding even though I was calling the incorrect phone number, the reps were very kind and knowledgeable.

    I received a call in response to an inquiry I made online for a warranty. I explained that although the deal sounded good I couldn't commit while on the call, that I would need to do my due diligence. The man was ultra aggressive, reminiscent of a "timeshare closer" (the guy that comes in at the end and makes you feel stupid for not signing up). When I explained that I might purchase the plan but not today, he became rude, saying, "If you knew you weren't going to buy, why did you keep me on the phone all this time?" I then remarked, "I'm sorry but you just completely removed your company from consideration." I didn't catch much else that he said, but he never stopped talking. My input was largely irrelevant during the conversation. The call was at 12:18 pm and came from 636-542-5794. Unfortunately this call was such an experience that I would never consider the company, regardless of price.

    I saw an advertisement for CarShield on TV, and I thought I would check it out. After all, they said I could get a free quote so why not, right? I entered my information, and within a few minutes a representative of CarShield called me, as expected. He confirmed my information, and then transferred me to a sales rep by the name of Matthew. Matthew started off nice, offered me a quote that I was not going to be doing so I turned down the offer. I told him a couple concerns and he offered a second quote. I tried telling Matthew multiple times that I was looking for a quick quote so I could do a little research on my own to determine the best option for my budget, and even if I could budget it. Matthew ensured me that this was in the best interest of my budget, but he was not interested in letting me actually determine my budget.

    We went back and forth for a few minutes, and I continued to tell him no until I was forced to hang up on him because he was becoming rude at this point. When a company will not put a quote on the table, and allow you to think about it for even 24 hrs that is a red flag. When a company will not send you information on the plan they want you to sign up for without giving them $150 start up fee... that is another red flag. When you have to hang up on a representative because they will not take no for an answer... a third and final red flag. Perhaps this company is legit, but due to poor customer service I was never able to actually find out.

    We have two cars warrantied with CarShield. My daughter Erica bought this warranty for me on another car as a gift. I don’t have the other car so it's still in Erica’s name but I'm the guy who pays for it. CarShield did right the first time but now, I don't know what they got going on over there as dealing with their customer service team was horrible. Instead of putting a rebuilt motor in the car, they got a motor from the junkyard that was supposed to have 30,000 miles on it. We’ve been driving the car for about three weeks and now, it's leaking oil again. Also, they're saying that they're not going to cover the rental car.

    The motor on the second car went out also and they said that they couldn’t cover that because it had carbon in the engine. Any engine you start up and run is going to get carbon in it. It has just been a bad experience all the way around. After this, I wouldn’t do it with CarShield again. They’re charging us money every month. All they care about is what they could save at sales. I wouldn't have come back a second time if they hadn't been right the first time but now they're doing things different.

    After reading a lot of reviews about Mercedes diesel, purchasing a service contract seemed like a smart move so I got one with CarShield. One time, I was on vacation in southern Maine and the car was towed and it had to stay at the dealer so that CarShield inspector could look at it. CarShield wouldn't do it with photos, Skype nor FaceTime. The dealer was willing to do everything. She wanted that car out of that shop because my car is a diesel and when there's a problem with the BlueTec system, it winds down to so many starts. When you get to the last start, the car is basically a brick and has to get towed. So, the car was in the service bay, dead.

    However, the dealer was very upset that they had to wait a full business day, on a holiday weekend only for the inspector to show up at 5:00 in the afternoon so the car couldn't be repaired till the next day. The dealer filed the claim for me, did the repair, and CarShield paid the $2,000 repair, except a $50 deductible. The car sat at the dealer for four days over a holiday weekend. I could have spent $250 a day but there was no way to rent a car, and the dealer didn't have one. Being stuck for days with no car in the vacation area, where you have to drive to go anywhere was terrible. I called CarShield and complained afterward but they told me that was their policy. They have to see the car in person and I was in an area where there were no inspectors, and the inspector drove a 100 miles to look at the car.

    The service contract I had with the car had expired. At that time, CarShield stood out because of their price. When I was about to purchase my warranty, my questions were about how much I am going to pay and what CarShield would be covering. They told me that I'll get the whole book, which I was expecting in the mail. They also told me that I had to download it so I did. I was able to save it at the office and it came in handy. However, they didn't cover tires under my warranty. I remember when I purchased my car, it was right during winter. There was so much salt and we had potholes galore. With my car being low, I tried to avoid it. But many times, you just don't.

    When I called first about the car because I had to get all my tires straight from the dealer, the ones that were put on me were gone. I had to purchase new tires since they told me that the tires aren't insured. They have to get other warranty stuff. And so I went to the tire place, they told me that they couldn't give me insurance on the tires. So then I get the warranty after a couple of months. I was able to use the insurance on the tires but I didn't even think about asking about the extended warranty. Still, CarShield handled it okay since I know that due to the weather and the snowing, it was difficult to come through. However, my thing is they told the car dealer that they have to take everything apart and the dealer called me up to just rant. He said that they're not touching it until they get paid. So I had to go that night and go give them $500. Other than that, CarShield was able to cover my tow.

My car was a 2011 and only had 40 some thousand miles on it. But the warranty carried me through a 125,000, as I ended up trading the car to a new one. I then switched my CarShield to my other car. But CarShield wasn't very good. They tried to tell me that my repair was a preexisting condition when I had it at the dealer but my service records didn't show any of that. I talked to the adjuster supervisor and then they ended up approving it and worked it out with the dealer. I had no problem after that and the quality of the service was fine.

    The adjuster that CarShield was supposed to send didn’t come when he was supposed to. The first time he had a car accident and the second time, he was on holiday. So the car remained in the shop for almost three weeks and I needed to get a rental car. We were not supposed to pay for the whole rental car but I ended up receiving not even half of what they were supposed to pay. I was billed with $1,500 and the reps I spoke with on the phone said they were going to pay for it. I wasn’t told that they were only supposed to pay for six days. Apparently, I should’ve read the agreement first. If I knew that they were going to bill me for the other days maybe it would’ve been better if I stayed home and not work at all. So I would recommend CarShield to others but I would advise them that whenever they are supposed to get a rental car, they should really look into that and ask CarShield about it even if it’s necessary to call a couple of times.

When we spoke with the people at the dealership they said that the place was closed. But we told them that we had to get it done so they fixed it. After the fact, we found out that CarShield only covered $250 of the cost because they didn’t get the call first. We weren't happy about it, but that was written in the contract and it was very black and white.

    Other than that, we've been happy with CarShield. Not long ago, we also had something happen with that car and CarShield took care of it except for our $50 deductible.

They convinced me based on the information they gave. Filing a claim with them was simple. I called CarShield and drove the car to Volkswagen which they said they worked with. I didn't have to do anything. Volkswagen called CarShield and explained what the issue was, then they sent a technician. The technician checked and he contacted CarShield back, then I called CarShield again and they said my claim was approved.

    I called a couple times to have some claims clarified and some of their reps were knowledgeable and explained everything. There were others though that were very rude. Also, I didn't like that when my car was in the repair shop, CarShield didn't tell me that I could get a rental car until several days later when basically my car was ready. But it's always good to have an insurance or a warranty to cover your car expenses. CarShield was able to secure the claim that I had.

    My prior extended warranty company had horrible service. I had something that needed to be repaired and they didn't cover the service. I called CarShield and I liked what their rep said. I even gave him the information about the tire work I had done and he said it was something that they cover 100%. So, I ended up switching. Everybody at CarShield was very courteous, and the process of signing up was very easy and seamless. My second interaction with them was good, too. The guy was prompt with calling me back and keeping in touch with the dealership, and even my dealership was pleased with CarShield.

    The claims process was very straightforward, quick and easy. I simply had to give the service guy the dealership number. He called, he had people come in the next day to do the evaluation and within 48 hours, the decisions were made. This last service would've cost me over $3,000 and I only had to come out of pocket with $1,000. So, having CarShield was definitely worth it because I never had any problems that were as crazy with the engine, which was like a fluke. I'm pleased with CarShield and I have recommended them to other people. They're an affordable car service especially when you're outside of warranty, and it's the next option to help pay for any extra cost on a car repair.

    I had retired and I figured if I had problems with my vehicle, I was going to need some help so I got a service contract for it. I used to have the original manufacturer warranty and it did a little better than what CarShield did because I had a bit of problem getting CarShield to do what we wanted them to do. But CarShield fixed it. I just had to argue with them a bit. The service manager in the service department at Barkley wanted to put a new motor in the truck but they wouldn't let him so they ended up putting oil pump on it. That fixed it so far but we'll see.

    I haven’t had any more problems lately. But the service manager at Barkley said that the way that the valves were growling, he's scared there may be some damage in that. This oil pump may be a temporary fix and he got a little aggravated with them. It took about 14 days to get it fixed when it should've been fixed in about two days. Nonetheless, the cost is fair and is comparable to others. But people should make sure they know what they're getting when they sign up for CarShield because the way they explained it to me when they kept calling me on the phone, it would cover a lot more stuff than what it covered.

    I had just bought the vehicle and it was still eligible to be on its manufacturer warranty, but when I talked to the gentleman at CarShield, they offered so much more, and he was much nicer than the people I talked to at Chrysler. I read in the manual they mailed me about the parts that were covered, and I've had two claims on my cars. It seemed like everything from bumper to bumper was covered under that warranty, which was another thing that made me choose CarShield. Also, the price for the warranty was outstanding, so I was very happy with that. When I called, the reps just asked for my claim number and what kind of car I had. Then they told me to go get the car fixed and tell the mechanic to call them, and they would be more than happy to assist me.

    Car repairs can be really expensive, and if one has the computer things like I have on my car, getting CarShield is a no-brainer situation. You're willing to pay for some very expensive repairs or you'd be smart and just pay a small monthly fee. You can spread out a monthly balance over a period of time and get your car fixed and you're going to come out winning in the end. CarShield is a great company and everyone I've come in contact with, so far, has been really nice. I most definitely referred CarShield to several people.

    CarShield was the first one to send me something when my manufacturer's warranty was going to expire. When I had an issue with my Saturn, I took the car to the dealership and they contacted CarShield. They said that what was wrong with the vehicle wasn't covered under the warranty. I called them after I found that out since it was a part that should've been checked the last time that the vehicle was worked on and they didn't have a good answer. They just said it wasn't covered.

    I filed one other claim and it took longer than a week for my car to be fixed and given back to me. My vehicle was in the shop, then somebody from CarShield came to look at it and told the shop what was wrong and the shop had to get a hold of me to authorize the fix. The CarShiled reps were the only ones that could do the repair but they didn't stay there at the time and told the shop to wait. They'd go back somewhere else and look at another vehicle. That cost me another day or two before they got back.

    If people have an issue with their vehicle, CarShield needs to make it a priority to get it resolved not just when it's convenient for them to come down and check the vehicle out, but when it's convenient for the consumer. Had I gotten an extended warranty through the dealership that I bought the car from, everything would've been covered and I probably would have my car back within a day or two. I would not go with CarShield again nor would I recommend them to anybody else.

    My wife has a fairly new car and with the type of car that she has, we thought we would get a good coverage for it so we decided to get a protection plan from CarShield. So far, we’ve only had to use it once and it works great. The amplifier went out and she took her car to the service center and they checked it out. She gave them the information that she had from CarShield and the service center got in touch with them and everything was taken care of. They covered everything that had to be covered and we just paid a $100 deductible. The overall quality has been very good. Since we’ve never had to buy anything like this before, the cost wasn’t bad at all. It was quite reasonable. Since we had CarShield, my wife feels more comfortable that if something goes wrong, she’s covered.

    I had the warranty that came with my Porsche SUV and because I have an expensive car, I needed to extend the warranty. Someone from CarShield called over the telephone. He was very knowledgeable and thorough in terms of explaining all of the options that I had in regard to coverage. The price was negotiable and we went back and forth and came to an agreement. It was a price that was within my budget and I purchased it.

    CarShield seemed to be everything that I signed up for. I had to use the plan once and something went wrong with my car, and the interaction was negotiated between the dealership and customer service. It was going to cost me about $4,000 or $5,000 out of pocket because my insurance had lacked and Porsche was willing to give me a way off of only $1,000. They thought they were doing me a favor by negotiating with Porsche corporate office since my warranty had just expired with them. I waited for them to do their negotiation and then I let them know that I have the additional insurance. When I explained it to them what my benefits were, they were shocked that those were comprehensive.

    I was pleased with the coverage that I'm getting from CarShield. I'm a widow so it's just me and I don't know much about cars. I always have the sense that the dealership is going to rip me off. Knowing that I've got them behind, I feel more secure that I have insurance that will cover almost anything that goes wrong with my vehicle.

    After the warranty ran out on my vehicle, I thought it would be a good idea to get another service contract. CarShield sent me a mailer and I reached out to them, asked some clarifications on what was covered and what was not covered and they were pretty helpful. They also gave me a good price, so I went with it. I already filed a total of two claims and the dealer dealt directly with them. I did not get involved. But I recall one time, the dealer wanted some repairs done on my car and had contacted CarShield’s adjuster to come and do an inspection. The gentleman at the dealership said that they were very easy to work with and he was quite impressed because, in the past, he has worked with other companies and hasn't had as pleasant an experience.

    Overall, the quality of service was fairly positive and I haven't had any issues. They've been very responsive and accommodating. I would probably end up paying more for the coverage than the cost of repairs but that's that way it goes sometimes. And CarShield covers what they say they're going to cover and they don't fight you on claims which I think is the most important thing.

    When I received the paperwork from CarShield it said that they would cover everything. But when I spoke with the mechanics they said it was baloney and that CarShield only covers the big stuff. They’re supposed to be more clear. What I receive from the company is supposed to be, point by point, what is covered. I need the information because whatever I pay is supposed to be covered by this company. I don’t know why there are not so many mechanics who respect this coverage or they don’t know how to deal with it. Plus, the mechanics differentiate how to operate the service. Even when I go to the dealer, they are not happy. Nothing is covered and I would have to pay something or go to the other.

    The person who knows the coverage doesn’t know how to process an oil change. He has tried to call but he doesn’t know how to fill up the form and I don’t understand. What I have is like some fake stuff such that they could treat me like an idiot for what I needed. I had a problem with the electronic accelerator and I spent $2000. They charged me twice like they used me and it was not fair. But when I filed about the transmission it was easy.

The garage filed the claim for me, got back to me in a couple of days and said that CarShield accepted. That was seamless. CarShield did what they said they would do. They had work done to my car and I paid a $100 as my deductible. My car went into a garage and laborers spent hours on it and that was compensated. And the part that was mailed to the garage was also compensated. But they took a bad part out and they were supposed to replace it. They replaced it with an equally bad part, possibly even worse.

We purchased a new policy around January last When filing claims, I just go to the dealer and he would take care of it for me. Also, the protection specialists were pretty good. However, I wish the cost was less. Based on my policies, they were around $3,000 a piece and this one is a repurchase of a policy that gets to 100,000 and the other was additional purchase from when I had bought that policy with the 2005.

    I let my credit go towards my new vehicle and I was unaware. I did not really understand the issue with the mileage and the year thing and I should’ve just got my money back and bought it later because we have the car for five years and the policy went out. I actually bought a brand new vehicle and kept the policy going there. I had it paid off within the first year and a half and then five years later, I found out that even if my vehicle had less than 80,000 miles on it, my policy was in the over the five-year thing.

Their vehicle specialists explained the warranty to me a lot better and they had answers to whatever questions I had. To get approved for a claim, I call them and they tell me what I need to do. They tell me to take it to the dealership, and the dealership will contact them after the dealership does what they need to do. I did what I was told and everything was taken care of.

    I was very appreciative how their customer service rep handled my situation, except when I was getting letters from CarShield and I needed to contact them concerning my warranty and other stuff because they didn’t take my name off a certain list. It confused me thinking that something was wrong with our warranty, but they took care of it so I haven’t received anything else in the mail since. Other than that, their deductible is low and I would tell a friend to check them out.

    Claims HandlingCoverage

    Reviewed Jan. 18, 2018

    I planned on keeping my vehicle and I had low mileage on it so I decided to purchase a service contract for it from CarShield. Since getting the service contract all my interactions with my certified vehicle protection specialist have gone smoothly. I submitted a claim for the car about 3 times and it was covered. But when I took my electrical problem up there with them they figured out a way to not cover the repair.

    It came down to where the vehicle is fitting at a Ford dealer. The car repair company submitted the claim and CarShield sent an adjuster down to look at the vehicle and authorize the repair. It's a convertible car and it was raining on the day that CarShield's adjuster came out to look at the car. I live in Washington state where it rains quite a bit. No water was leaking into the car. Still the adjuster said that the electrical problem was caused by excessive moisture in the vehicle. Because of that moisture it would not be covered by CarShield's service contract. Up into that point it was fine. But then all of a sudden, it was like, "I'm not too happy with them." But I'm still glad I have probably the same warranty and hopefully if I do have another incident they don't figure out a way not to play pay the claim. If a friend would ask about them I wouldn't recommend them.

    When interacting with CarShield, I had overall a good experience. Every time I was on the phone with them, they were very polite and friendly. Unfortunately, due to financial reasons, I had to cancel my contract. Even when canceling, they were friendly, although a little pushy on trying to get me to stay. As soon as they realized I was intent on canceling however, they were very helpful in instructing me on how to do so. My car ran into no issues during the term of my contract, so I cannot comment on the process of filing a claim. My only issue with coverage is it does not cover leaky gaskets.

    So I saw the commercial for this on TV, and thought it might be good for my daughter who lives in CA. Went online and filled out the questioner only looking for a quote and was almost immediately contacted by sales. After a brief conversation was switched over to a coverage specialist (Kevin). I couldn't give him the exact mileage cause she's in CA and I'm in MD. Looking for only a quote only on a 2007 Nissan Sentra and the commercial says 20 years or newer. Kevin said to me that due to the age of the car if I didn't purchase coverage by the end of the call they might not be able to get coverage. Told him, "Ok thanks. I'll try something else." While I was hanging I could hear him say, "But don't you want your quotes?". What a piss poor way to try to get business.

    Kody of Carnegie, PA summed it up. Wanted a quote, got passed around and price lowered. Then lowered again. Since I wouldn't pay the fee to start contract right then they didn't send any information. They called me on 12/22 or 12/23 after I inquired about a quote online. I told the first guy I would not give him a yes or no as he went through the script. I thought the second guy understood that right up until he asked how would I be paying for the fee today so he could put my contract in the mail. Then you get to start all over saying, "No, No, No."

    I can make this short and to the point. I was told that my contract would cover the engine, transmission & drivetrain & electrical. I have a 4 wheel drive Suburban. CarShield refused to cover any type of sensor (electrical). They refused to cover my transfer case (a lubricated part). When agreed to the contract, I was told that the only maintenance that was required for me to keep a record of was my oil changes. Once my claim was filed, I was told that I have to keep and have a maintenance record for everything. If I couldn't show proof of it, they won't cover it. The transfer case was inspected but no service was done to it. Nowadays, all vehicles run by computer. Sensors are critical to the function of a engine. It's part of the electrical system in all vehicles. CarShield won't cover anything. They will conveniently find a reason NOT to cover your vehicle.

    Like most people, I like to get multiple quotes before making a decision. I contacted CarShield and told them that I am comparing coverages and prices. Instead of understanding this request, they kept putting different people on the line to explain how I was getting the best deal and that it doesn't matter what the other companies say. In the end, the salesman got frustrated and just said "ok bye" because I told him repeatedly that I needed to discuss the payments and coverage with my other half. They also did not email me the quote they had discussed over the phone. MY ADVICE: If you go through them do not accept the first price they mention because they dropped the price for my coverage at least three times. I will be doing business with Endurance based solely upon their actions on the phone.

    My mother mistakenly took the bait from this company. She has a nearly brand new vehicle and it's under full warranty. When I called to cancel it on her behalf I was given this song and dance of the warranty on her car started when it was built and that the extended warranty she purchased FROM NISSAN was backed by third parties that looked out for the dealers, not the consumer.

    First statement of vehicle warranty starts at the time it was built, not the in service date. FALSE. Your warranty goes active when you purchase the vehicle and it goes into service. Second statement of extended warranty is not backed by Nissan but by a third party. Really? That's very interesting since it's a Nissan warranty and states that it is backed by Nissan, not a third party. Rendering that statement as FALSE as well. This leads me to my next statement. If this warranty was backed by a third party then what exactly is your organization? It surely isn't the manufacturer.

    Finally I would like to further state that the customer service is terrible. We'll call it customer NO SERVICE. They talk all over you, cut you off, etc. so that they may still give you their stupid song and dance of why their company is so great. In my eyes this company is a complete fraud preying on elderly and unsuspecting individuals. If they were the last auto warranty company on the planet I still wouldn't do business with them. I'd rather walk or ride a bike. So buyer beware. You've been warned!
