“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.

I was misled and uninformed until after I paid two months and waited for 500 miles to pass, then told
The repairs I needed would not be covered

"sorry that's not covered"

Reason I chose this business:

I fell for the ads.

I haven't had to use their service for a warranty service yet but they are there if I need the service hopefully it willl be proper fully for me.

I had a problem I don’t have my monthly payment automatically drawn but they went in and took it automatically and I went in the day prior and made the payment so they had two payments out on me when I called about the issue they were aware and said it was a computer problem other customers had the same problem that put me in a bad situation problem I had to wait several days to get it fix but been a computer problem it should gotten fix that day that’s my idea I do work for the Federal Government US Postal Service and been there 37 years I try my best to go out my way to help customers and I get great feedback back about how my service ways I try to make customers feel important but that’s me I been there 37 years and I response of my service or help is good that’s me my opinion have a good day.

Reason I chose this business:

I was looking for company that I could get a warranty with and car shield should up so I went with it.
