“Almost cancelled, glad I didn't.”

John L.
12/23/24

A couple of months after I signed up, I almost cancelled. Car shield reps worked with me to find the right coverage that better suited my needs that fit with my budget. I questioned my decision from time to time, all the way up until my transmission AND differential both gave out simultaneously. Over $8,000.00 that they covered. I had to pay almost $450.00 for the stuff that wasn't covered like fluids. Saved my A**! As long as you read your contract and know what to expect, Car Shield is a very good service.

“Phone call”

Jose D.
1/4/25

I was called twice about my bill not gone through my credit card when I had a email from my bank showing that went through OK. So by the third time I had to tell the operator to recheck because it was paid. So I don't know why I was called when it was paid on time so looks like one department didn't know what the other department was doing

There is no experience yet! I will let you know when my car needs repairs, and if I will have issues from car shield not willing to pay my dealer or any other car shop! I only called to get some additional information, etc.

Reason I chose this business:

Saw commercials with Ice Tea and Vivica Fox!

First call to Carshield she was very helpful in finding a shop that would do the necessary work and accept carshield. But after my truck was a week at the shop with no action taken (Avoid Firestone Lakeland, TN!) called carshield back and told them I had to find a new shop and she basically led me to believe I'm on my own. They sure don't mind collecting my monthly premiums.

See above.

Reason I chose this business:

Thought it would be good since my original warranty has ended.

I bought this extended warranty while I had less than 30,000 miles on my truck. The price was right and the service is exemplary. I had a great time dealing with the company, and am looking forward to the peace that having this warranty will give me for the next 5 years

Reason I chose this business:

The company offered me a good monthly price and coverage and deductable that was very agreeable.

This is the first experience I've had with this type of insurance. The Representatives could not have been nicer, taking the time to lay out what needed to be done, details to submit, then going over the mechanic bill item by item to be sure it was understandable before approving the payout. My mechanics also remarked about what a pleasure it was to work with good reps who know what's what and are responsive and easy to understand. No hidden agendas, all right up front. A pleasure.

Reason I chose this business:

Honestly? Because my Brother had just purchased it and had a great experience.
