“Piece of mind”

Jeffrey B.
12/1/24

I have 2 vehicles covered under car shield including my 19 year old Land Cruiser. It comes with specific & straight forward guidance if we ever break down. Very happy to know I'm covered in the future!

“Horrible, save your money”

Cody g.
11/2/24

Engine blew up and they only covered $1200 out of the $6000. My shop provided all the necessary details from cause of failure to freeze frame data. They refused to pay the entire claim. Even though all parts were covered under the contract. If you google this company you'll understand why there's a 10 million dollar lawsuit for deceptive ads. No shop or dealership wants to deal with CarShield either. They are difficult to work with and do not pay out. Save yourself and go with another company.

Have no experience with Carshield other than I pay my premium and yall accept it so I don't have an opinion.

Reason I chose this business:

To be pro active.I have a great little 2011 ford and have had no problems but I figure that probably the time is going to come.

Car Sheild approves a price they will pay, rest is out of your pocket. Depends on mechanics costs and labor.

Reason I chose this business:

Cars need repair, never have cash for car emergencies.
