Excellence!
January 17, 2024

Haven't had to use in the 3 years we have had car shield. I have had verbal communication to make all is okay and to be assured there would be no problem if and when a claim is requested. I'm assured there would be no problem.

Dissatisfied with approval process
January 24, 2024

I waited 2 days to get approval for a repair. I do not understand why it took so long. If so much information was required for approval, why wasn't it requested when I signed up?

Sorry to hear this. We have had over 2 million customers and the negative reviews online are a tiny fraction of our business. That said, we are always working on providing better products and services each day. If you have any feedback about how we could have served you better, please let us know.

My experience had been a good one because you are never hounded or pressured about anything even if you change your service and that feels great in the times that we are living in now.

Towing
January 16, 2024

I had to call Britton's wrecker service in Mounds IL to tow my car, because the one car shield was charging too much out of pocket money for me. I didn't get the $125, they was suppose to pay. It cost me $250 which I paid.

Immediate favorable result.
January 16, 2024

A Car Shield representative contacted me to let me know that my January payment had not been received. My Car Shield payments are automatic and my bank records showed it had in fact been paid. Almost immediately, the representative saw that my payment had been received and apologized for the accounting error.
