No labor on the invoice!
January 20, 2024

I have been trying to get a reimbursement for 1,750. I'm being told because there is no labor on the invoice I guess I'm not gonna to be reimbursed. I don't understand the job is a replacement for a problem with the old screen. The price is 1,750 total this job the labor is built in to the price. Tesla sent a message saying this is how this particular job goes and they can't manipulate the invoice to put it there the labor. So if I don't hear anything from carshield by Monday because like I told the person on the phone on Friday no one is going to call me back. And they didn't.

We are always happy to explain your coverage details and assist in any customer service needs, however. We, at CarShield, have little to no control over the decision of your claims. That is up to the administrator of the account.

I'm still waiting for the answer to my question about my cards milage mistake. I need to know how much my bill is before its a late payment.
The woman that took my call was a pro! She was a real pleasure to talk to. Other than the problem not getting answered yet, it would be great! She told me I would get an email as soon as you guys figure out the mistake, so I'm just waiting on you guys now. I need to make my payment, please reply.

Car shield
January 13, 2024

I had car shield for several months but didn't use the service because my car runs great. I stopped the service because I'm going to Florida for the winter and the car will be stored in my locked garage.

Frustrating
January 20, 2024

I was told multiple times to scan my tow receipt for reimbursement and I did just that and I have yet to receive my reimbursement. I have been waiting a week to about two weeks and I haven't received any emails explaining why I haven't received it or if I even will.

Buyer be ware

I've had these kind of coverages before and I learned my lesson. Take care of your vehicle like it's your baby and it will serve you well. Abuse it, then you pay for it.

Patience helps
January 13, 2024

I've used CarShield several times and it has saved me a lot of money. The only issue I had is that they like to send parts to the shop instead of using local suppliers. This could add a day or two to the work. They are looking at the bottom line so I can't argue with saving money but put your patience hat to wait it out if this happens.
