Updated review

I had a main computer failure (a very expensive repair) and Car Shield took care of it all the way from the towing to the repair shop to getting me a rental car while it was being repaired all the way to delivery of my repaired vehical.
A very good experience. I'm certainly glad I joined CarShield

Called to set up rental and had to speak to rental department. That evening, I spoke with 3 different people and all were totally rude (Benjamin, Shia and cannot remember other person's name). I called the next morning and got Shaniya who was so very nice! She took my complaint, seemed very concerned and helped me finish my task. It was so easy to for her to accommodate me and I appreciate her.

Good service
September 19, 2024

They provided a rental car only problem was, the garage it was taken to had it for 2 days and figured they didn't have the equipment to do the job. It then had to be brought to a garage that had the right equipment we had to wait to get authorization that took 2 days and the weekend. Work hadn't started and I had to return the rental. It was a long process.
