Great experience
December 20, 2024

My experience with Car Shield was great. I had no problems with my vehicle getting repaired. They got a tow truck to pick my car up and carry it to a shop.

A Satisfied Customer
December 20, 2024

I've been a member of Carshield's Warranty Program for quite a few years. During this time, I've had to do maintenance on several vehicle parts. When claims were called in for approval I must say the dealership handling all repairs have been received positively wit prompt and immediate responses for claim verification. I have been blessed to not have my price portions to be above what I felt was reasonable. All claims are received, quoted a price with repairer, and paid upon completion of work.
Yes! I'm a satisfied and pleased customer with CarShield and my repair dealership, Firestone for excellent care and showmanship of service!
Thank you CarShield for respecting the needs of your customer,
Starr Paul

Why do I have car shie
December 19, 2024

You guys are a rip off. Why do I pay 140 bucks a month with a 100 deductible. You guys don't cover all the cost of the repairs being made.

Randy, after further review, there were differences in the labor rates that the repair facility used and what was recommended by a nationally recognized labor guide. Please contact our Customer Service at 1-800-587-4162 if you have any further questions or concerns. We are here to help you understand your contract, explain the breakdown of cost, and assist in the claims process.

Pearline, that is unfortunate to hear and we apologize for the inconvenience. After further review, it looks like you were several months behind on payments and the account cancelled for nonpayment. Our coverage plans vary depending on the age and mileage of the vehicle, therefore, our sales agents place you into the highest level of coverage your vehicle qualifies for. Please contact our Customer Service Department at 1-800-587-4162 for further assistance if you have any questions or concerns.

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.

Good to have a backup
December 18, 2024

We got Carshield to have a piece of mind. It works. Although sometimes it may take a while to get approval and stuff. I noticed that car dealer shops are not very excited and fond, when you tell them you have a Carshield. Anyway - I still had to pay deductible, and for parts that are not covered. But it was worth the money. Without the Carshield I would have to pay way more
