Some of the names given by Car Sheild no longer accept them for payment. Once I found a garage that I could trust, that accepted Car Shield, then it was very simple to get the work done and paid for.

Disappointed
January 9, 2024

I know for sure that other garage is not going to work in our favor at all as contract holders with CarShield so with that said I'm going go cancel my contract the only way it's going to work for y'all is that y'all is to have your own Garage for contract holder only.

Good/Bad
January 1, 2024

When I made a claim the adjuster did not agree with the mechanics at the garage and would only OK a couple hundred dollars on a $4000 project. Why am I paying for a top notch plan that doesn't cover my needs.

Great service
January 1, 2024

It took my mechanic to go through the service, but it was his first time dealing with Car Shield.
The bill was much lower than before I had the program.

They r suck.
January 8, 2024

Take for ever to approve the claim. Give hard time to the mechanic. I took it to the same mechanic and they asked her for too many proofs. It's a headache. I don't recommend anyone.

I only recently joined, and haven't had any need to call on Carshield, but so far as becoming a member, it was a very simple and direct process.

Updated review

Took my truck in to have both batteries replaced. The mechanic told me that I also needed a new starter motor. I told him that I had Car Shied. He took care of everything from there. I knew the batteries were not covered, but Car Shield covered the starter motor at no cost to me.

Date of experience: January 1, 2024

Great feeling to know I am covered.

I have not had to use Car Shield yet so I can not say anything good or bad about the service.
