I recently broke down and had to have a tow truck take my vehicle to my Chrysler dealership. I called CarShield and spoke to a person on the phone and explained the situation. Because I was at work all week, it was hard for me to be on the phone to handle everything, but CarShield worked hand-in-hand with the dealership. I didn't have to do anything. The dealership sent the pictures and information that was needed and within a few days time I had my vehicle back and CarShield paid over $2000 worth of repairs and left me my small deductible and a little difference in labor for a total of $170. They have really stepped up their game. Their customer service is great and the whole experience gave me complete peace of mind. CarShield is worth having and I highly recommend it to anyone who has a vehicle, especially if it is not a new vehicle and you are concerned about electronics and other parts breaking down. My problem was to do with the powertrain valve body, an 5 hour repair on my Chrysler 300C, and my vehicle only has 42,000 miles on it. CarShield was amazing to work with. Thank you so much, CarShield!

Great Service!

My windshield wiper fluid wasn't working. The motor went out. It was covered under this warranty with $100 deductible...still cheaper than paying out of pocket for it. Fast claim time and payment to the company who fixed this for me!

A Very pleasant call with your agent Taylor. Purpose of call was to confirm a particular part (tire sensor) was covered in Our CarShield Diamond plan. Taylor confirmed that this sensor and labor was covered and then placed notes in Our plan to assure that when dealer agent called to cover sensor and labor cost. Then CarShield Agent taking call would already have ALL information in Our file to take care of Our repairs at said dealer. Taylor was pleasant, knowledgeable, professional, timely and We believe Taylor wished to take care of Our Needs and Requirements for repairs on Our 2019 Chevorlet Equinox Premier vehicle. JBB and JLB.
