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.

A long Wait
January 15, 2024

First off I could not get a rental car when I dropped of my car. The dealer said I have to go through Car Shield, when Car Shield called me they said talk to the dealer. I plaid games with them till I finally got a rental 5 days later. Car Shield said he ordered the parts I needed for my car on Tues. Said the dealer would have them on Thurs., parts did not show up until Mon. I didn't get my car back till Fri. Almost 2 weeks. It is a good thing I am retired and didn't need a car right away, there should be a way to get a rental within a day.
