Had some issues at place were we took are vehicle they said they called called car shield they never did. But car shield called them.
I realize the timing was very close from when I canceled to when the next payment was due. However, I canceled the service prior to the payment being auto charged to my account. Most companies would have refunded the payment for a service not used. I will leave it alone as the service representative that helped me doesn't make that decision, but I do hope you change your philosophy soon.
Alex, we apologize if there was any confusion regarding your account. After further review, it appears that you called in to cancel after your payment had ran. We only offer refunds within the first 30 days of the coverage, however, your vehicle still has coverage for the month the payment was taken for. Please contact our Customer Service Department at 1-800-587-4162 for further assistance if you have any questions or concerns.
Great attention was given to address my questions and concerns.
We are pleased to hear you found our customer service team helpful! If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to give us a call.

Terry, we are pleased to hear our team was able to answer any questions you had. Thank you again for your time!
I'm very disappointed in how Carshild my claim has been handled. It has been one week plus and my car has not been repaired. My seven day rental has inspired. I don't have a car to drive to go to work and I don't know what to do at this time, I'm disappointe.
Varney, that is unfortunate to hear and we apologize if there may be some confusion about your claim. After further review, it appears the claims department has been requesting certain documentation from the repair facility in order to move forward in the process. If you need further assistance in understanding what is needed to resolve the issue, please don't hesitate to contact our Customer Service Department 1-800-587-4162.
I had a flat tire Saturday and went online to get it changed but no one called back. I then called CarShield and told them the situation and after several times being placed on hold they said they would send someone to change my tire. After about 45 minutes a tow truck pulled to tow my car away. All I needed was a tire change. I had to get help from somewhere else. I am wondering why I pay them for service and get nothing.
Raymond, we apologize that you were not satisfied with our services. Reviews like yours, help us to identify and target the areas where we need to improve. Please contact our Customer Service Department at 1-800-587-4162 for further assistance if you have any questions or concerns.
My car's air compressor decided it was time to die after 12 years of faithful service on a Thursday afternoon. I drove straight to the same shop I have been using for years, dropped the car off along with the Car Shield Contract paperwork and I was back on the road the next Monday afternoon. Everything went well and I could not be more pleased with the service.
Donald, we're absolutely thrilled to hear that! It's wonderful to know that you found our service helpful. Don't hesitate to give us a call if you need anything else.
I asked about using my non-profit tax exempt status on my purchase and could never speak to the supervisor who denied it...just got from the person on the phone "They said" you can't use it...that I should call the state local representatives!
Unprofessional!
Elaine, that is unfortunate to hear. After further review of your account, we can verify a Supervisor did reach out to you but the call was not answered. Unfortunately, we have no control over state taxes and regulations. Please contact our Customer Service Department at 1-800-587-4162 for further assistance if you have any further questions or concerns.

Car Shield had very good customer service when I signed up. The person I talked to was very knowledgeable, friendly and took the time to answer all of my questions. I got much better coverage at a better price than with Endurance. The best thing is my price will never go up!

Answer: It's affordable, excellent customer service, and efficient claim precessing!
Answer: Great question! Please give us a call and we can answer any questions you may have!
Answer: Carchex & endurance. But beware if any car warranty!
Answer: Car Shield only SELLS the policies. American Auto Warranty is the company that administers is the warranty. BBB grades them an 'F' rating & I agree.
Answer: That depends on the level of coverage that your vehicle qualifies for at the time you set up coverage. Give us a call with your VIN and mileage and we would be more than happy to go over that with you!
