Fast Response to Claim!
February 5, 2024
Updated review

We have several of our vehicles with Car Shield and every single claim has been handled with the most professional attention and fast responses. Most claims have been accepted and even those which did not qualify was due to our lack of understanding of the contract (not the 'fine-print')...
Keep up the good work!

Extended Warranty thru Carshield is a 'Must"
November 13, 2023
Previous review

Car Shield's extended warranty service is a 'must' for those unexpected vehicle problems that can put a real crimp in your cash flow. The service is fair prompt when working with the repair shops. We have four vehicles under this warranty and it allows us to keep each of them in top running condition.

My transmission needed repair and I was dreading the expense. However, CarShiled picked up most of the cost. It was fast and easy to file a claim and have the service department paid for the job!

Car shield makes their own labor hours
February 12, 2024

I brought my Tahoe to have work done on the front end. They had to replace control arms and ball joints. The shop quoted 8 hrs but Car Shield would only pay 4 hours, eventhough the labor rate was 8 hours per the book that is a universal pricing that ALL mechanics go by. I had to pay 400.00 plus the 100.00 deductible to have this done. I think it was very unfair that I pay for a warranty with a 100.00 deductible and end up paying 500.00 more to get my car back. I called Car Shield and they say said that's the rate Car Shield set. 👎👎. Boo for Car Shield.

Waiting on car shield to Reimburse me
February 12, 2024

I suppose to have good coverage with my policy if I'm broke down over 100 miles from home with hotel and car rental and meals.I have faxed copies of all my receipts in 3 different times and they claim that they have not received them yet. Also I broke down on a Sunday and couldn't find no service center until the following Wednesday because Monday was a holiday, Tuesday they had a ice storm and no one was open. So on Wednesday finally got to a shop, they couldn't Diagnose my truck until Friday the day they filled a claim. Then it was the next Wednesday before I was fixed so the point behind all this was I had more days stuck in a hotel that was not my fault waiting on getting my truck fixed. I think car shield should take evey case by case. I also call into them every day and was keeping them posted on what was going on, they told me to save my receipts and seed them in.so I have done what they ask.still waiting for car shield to get back to me and let me know how much they plan on helping me with.

The experience was a good one. The tranny went on my 2016 Chevy and they replaced. The whole transaction took 5 day from start to finish.

My bank account was compromised and had to be closed. I had to wait almost 2 weeks to get the information for the new account. Carshield was very patient while waiting for their payment.
