    I go to the dealership, and they take care of contacting Zurich. The coverage is good and if people need insurance coverage for their tires, Zurich is the way to go.

    My GPS was not working, along with a tire issue and a brake warning. It said to check the brake and the ESC. I couldn’t use cruise control because of it, so I took the vehicle in. The mechanic looked at it and said there was something wrong with the tire. The whole process went by fast, maybe two hours, and they repaired it. I’ve recommended getting a Zurich extended warranty to others. It was hassle-free. But I thought it was through Buick since I purchased it through the dealership.

    I purchased a brand-new vehicle about a year ago and I decided to get a service contract with Zurich. I have used it due to a flat tire since I purchased tire and wheel protection. It was a very good experience filing the claim and the service contract saved me time and money. I'm extremely pleased with what I pay Zurich.

    My experience with Zurich was great but the service contract ran out on me. I knew it was close to being up and I wanted to re-insure because I've got the car for my son, who is in college, and it’s to make sure that if he had any problems, it'll be covered. Over the years, the radiator has been overheating and I’ve had some issues with the steering wheel. Mostly, I take the car to the dealer and they’ll file the claim for me. When I bought my Chevy, the tires were new but they were in poor condition. Zurich helped cover my tires. So, it was a positive experience.

    I signed up with Zurich so my Kia is covered if something goes wrong with it, and Zurich has been great. It's well worth the money. The policy covers anything and the only thing that we did not get covered was the windshield. When you have a claim, you just take your car to the dealership, tell them that you got the coverage with Zurich, and they do the work. It's straightforward. There's no “Maybe,” or “Let me find out.” The car gets fixed. We hit a pothole and it destroyed the tire. It happened on a Saturday, so I had to wait till Monday, and the car was taken care of that day. I got brand-new tire and I only had 20 some odd miles on the car. I'm very satisfied. Having Zurich is super convenient.

    I cannot believe that to process a claim is 2 to 3 weeks. With all the technology it seems like this process would be streamlined a bit better. The average person does not have resources to make 2 and 3 car payments to stay current because the gap insurance's process needs revamping. We should do better.

    I can't believe any dealership would use these scam artists for glass coverage/warranty. They literally get paid for nothing. It should be illegal. They denied our windshield replacement claim because the crack was larger than 6 inches - as many customers/victims have experienced. The size of the crack should be irrelevant when replacement is necessary. Allegedly Toyota doesn't use them for warranties anymore, but that didn't help us after paying $1500 for coverage.

    I blasted Toyota and got partial reimbursement for the $500 deductible we had to pay through our auto insurance. But that isn't good enough. Zurich Shield should not be allowed to get away with this. They should not be in business, and I hope they fold. Adding insult to injury, you have to talk to the complete degenerates they hire when you call to get denied for claims. After you pay for a warranty, despite what the dealership tells you, you find out all Zurich covers is a little glue on cracks in the windshield, due to their "limited coverage." Limited? Nonexistent coverage!

    I had Zurich gap insurance and I’m still going through the lengthy process with them. It took them almost 3 months to finally cover my remaining balance on a truck I totaled and they did not pay off the total amount owed. You pay for gap insurance for a reason and this company does not follow through on their commitment. Do not in any way use this company.

    Hello Charles,

    Our review confirmed that the claim was processed once all required documentation was received, and we communicated with you throughout that process to request any missing information. We acknowledge that there were delays along the way and have apologized for that directly via a private message to you.

    We also reviewed the claim outcome to ensure it aligned with the terms of the GAP agreement. Certain portions of loan balances and fees are not covered under GAP, and payment timing can affect how balances are applied.

    We appreciate the opportunity to review and respond, and we remain committed to handling claims fairly, transparently, and in accordance with coverage terms. If you have any additional questions, our team is always available to help.

    Both times that I had to do a repair through Zurich went perfectly fine. When I hit a pothole, it completely destroyed my entire rim. I filed a claim with Zurich and it was seamless.

    Our records show that we applied coverage to some brake repairs on your truck and were awaiting further diagnosis on the other items. However, shortly after we authorized the brake repairs, the repair facility told us you declined to have any of the work done, so the claim was closed. If you’d like to return your truck to the repair facility, we can reopen the claim and re-authorize the original work we approved.

    My Zurich warranty is fine. It's just that the car is a lemon. I'm in the process of suing Mercedes because they had to replace the CPU unit twice. It stalled all on me and had to be towed from my work to the dealership once. It makes a weird noise on the back gears of the vehicle that they can't figure out, and all these times, I've taken it into repair nine times. I spend more time with car rentals from Mercedes than the actual car. I've had the tires replaced three times because of nail issues. And that actually works out beautifully because each one of those tires are over $500. Zurich is great. I have no issues with it. It was a little pricey but it's worth it because the car parts are so expensive. They covered what I needed to with the three-tire exchanges, which is really good on my part.

    I was tired of repairing my own vehicles for the longest time. So, when I bought a used Ford F-150, I wanted it to be covered under warranty and the dealership gave me Zurich. Unfortunately, I've had claims for a few repairs, a new transmission and an IWE sensor, which is something with the four-wheel drive. The dealership handled filing all the claims when I had the truck in for service, and from what I understand, when I was picking up my vehicle or when they put the claim in, they were quick about getting the approval and going from there. All in all, my experience with the repair process has been good. Some things took a long time 'cause of diagnosing the issues, but other than that, everything was smooth.
