OUTSTANDING
October 22, 2024

From start to finish everything went great. I called on Friday with a check engine light, the representative
Found a repair location 5 minutes from my house and they got me in on Monday and it was repaired the same day. All parties were respectful and caring. CarShield paid all the repair cost except for my deductible.
Very pleased

BMW x6
October 21, 2024

My experience was not bad at all. I m disappointed in the amount of hours approved for my SUV. As a long time customer for the five years or so. For the next customer; do your due diligence and break cover cost with cCar Shield and the repair shop. The disparity in in hours shouldn't be that far apart as my experience with my SUV.

Customers are not first
October 21, 2024

I have had car shield for almost four years and never used it. So now that o have to use it it has just been a run around. They have had my car over a week and have done nothing but give me the run around. I get a call from them on 10/10 saying that authorized the auto body shop to fix the car. I paid for the rental out of pocket the first four days. They gave seven days but never had the work done at the time they had my car that whole week now I will be out of more money plus the cost for the stuff they won't pay for.

Cost
October 21, 2024

Every time I have a problem with my car, it is never covered by Car Shield. I paid for coverage on my car but it seems to be wasted money spent.

I am mostly satisfied
October 21, 2024

Everyone I talked to was extremely helpful. I was given the names of some repair places which were close to me. Carshield made the initial contact for me. Car shield took care of my main issue. I was a little surprise that they didn't cover my truck release. But all in all satisfied. Willing to continue my services with them

My overall experience with Carshield was really good. I had the service since February. They offered a really good deal for my vehicle. Thankfully, I didn't have to use any of the services for my vehicle but it was great to have the coverage when I needed it.

Alternator gone bad
October 17, 2024

My battery light came on and my car was limping. I didn't know what was wrong. I called my mechanic and he told me it was probably the alternator. I called Car Shield from the auto repair shop and they contacted the shop by phone and started a claim. My car was fixed four hours later. Thanks Car Shield.

I gave several customer service reps my phone number, confirmed my car rental and got there and was told they tried to reach me at the number given to them by Car Shield reps hence no rental. Had to reschedule for the next. There has to be some empathy for the customer who is apparently caught up on a catch 22 with claims. Never thought it would be this horrible
