“Piece of mind”

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!

“Dissatisfied as dissatisfied can be.”

Chester P.
10/15/24

After many years (7) of being with your company and very little repair claims; now that a major repair is needed you'll have dropped the ball with a lot of red tape and inquisitions. I've paid my premiums like clockwork every month. I'm not at all happy with your service or professionalism towards fixing my car, you'll looking for the cheap route to solve my issues. Cheapness seems to be your best interest and not satisfying a seven (7) year customer!

Not only do they find loop holes to avoid covering you but the representatives take it personally when you call to cancel the service, the rep. Argued back and fourth with me although I just wanted to cancel, he said " You should have read the agreement" although I called and asked them several times what would be covered, my part was covered but because of how it broke even through I did nothing wrong they found a way out, as I was cancelling the rep asked to place me on hold, I said that's fine but I sat on hold for at lease 10 minutes I went home the call dropped in the garage so I called back got the same exact rep. He asked " did you hang up the call" I said no i entered a garage he asked to place me on a 3-4 minute hold AGAIN so I asked if it would actually be a 3-4 minute hold because I held much longer the 1st time, he paused for so long I thought the call dropped again I had to say "Hello" he then blitzed through cancellation terms and then hung up on me like he actually ended the call said goodbye and hung up on me If you were able to blitz through like that and then hang up on my why did you place me on hold to begin with? Then ask to place me on hold again? He took my wanting to cancel very personal, I did not want to argue or talk I wanted to cancel that's it. I'm disgusted with the whole experience from start to finish.

Tip for consumers:
