“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 give 4 stars for the first time making a claim. I learned a lot.

Fair for the first time experience. I was disappointed with the cost of labor clause, which caused me to have to pay much more than anticipated. I like taking my cars to the dealership because I’ve had better results with them over the general auto mechanic shops.

Reason I chose this business:

Saw ads on TV and thought I would give you a try.

That is unfortunate to hear and we apologize that there may have been confusion about your coverage. We do go over what is covered with you on the initial phone call and also send you the policy right away to review. The contract does go over the details of the coverage and explains that all repair parts and costs are verified per nationally recognized labor guides. Please contact our Customer Service Department at 1-800-587-4162 for further assistance if you have any questions or concerns.
