We had our AC completely replaced
January 9, 2024

We went to a local Jeep dealer, they evaluated the problem and contacted Car Shield. Unfortunately, for Car Shield to completely take care of the problem, they wanted to use after market parts. In order to get real Jeep parts, we had to pay about $900.

We do apologize you feel this way. We at CarShield have little to no control over the claims, shop process, or the administrators' decision. We are, however, always willing to explain the coverage details or help you with any of your Customer Service needs.

The person I spoke with was very nice. I enjoy having a warranty on my truck without having to buy a new truck every time, and CarShield makes that possible

Customer Service was great!
January 9, 2024

Customer service was great. Payment to the vendor in a timely manner was great. The coverage for repairs is misleading based on the commercials. In addition, to my deductible i had to pay additional funds for my repairs. The commercial lead people to assume that Car Shield pays for all repairs.

Smooth Claim Process
January 8, 2024

Very pleased with the claims process. Coverage could be better, yet will accept for now. Had to have transmission replaced. CarShield paid to have it rebuilt vs replacing with new or remanufactured one at their discretion. Should be at customers discretion. Claims process was very smooth and very pleased with outcome. They even paid for my rental car (retroactively). CarShield worked smoothly with repair facility (AAMCO) which was a great help. Thanks CarShield. Will be sure to keep you for next vehicle purchase.

I've been a customer for about 4 years. That's a lot of money I've paid over the years. My Ford Transit 250 van needed a water pump, radiator and thermostat. They didn't cover the thermostat. Why wouldn't they cover the thermostat since it is part of the cooling system? Also, I had to pay an extra $12.00 a day to get a rental car instead of a roller skate.

Asked about senior discount
January 7, 2024

First, I spoke with a very nice young lady named Jada and she transferred me to another very nice young lady named Jada. I explained my reason for calling and the second Jada fixed the problem. I appreciate the time they both took to listen to my concern and the fact that the problem was fixed so rapidly. Thank you all and keep up the good work!
