I have had several things replaced by Carshield. My AC compressor went out and it was covered. My fuel pump messed up, covered! These plans are absolutely worth every penny!

Fraud
January 8, 2024

I had trouble with my car and car shield themselves referred me to one of the mechanics that are on their list. The mechanic told car shield something was wrong with the car, car shield went out to drive the car and said nothing was wrong with it: Now I am driving an unsafe car not to mention it took them 8 days to come and look at it. I have been paying for 2 years I should have been helped with my car! I was left to go on public transportation.

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.
