Disappointed
December 1, 2023

Not what I expected pertaining to covered repairs. I dropped my vehicle at Pep Boys to have the starter replaced. It was a covered repair, and Car Shield shipped a starter from their warehouse to be installed. However Pep Boys refused to install it and used their own. The difference in price was almost $300, which I had to pay. My out of pocket for a COVERED REPAIR should be limited to my deductible. Obviously this changes my earlier opinion of Car Shield!

Repair
November 24, 2023

The customer service rep was very helpful. I was ready to leave/cancel Car Shield, but she able to calm
Me down. She listened to my concerns and explained what the 1st rep should have given me. She was able to keep me with car shield. Now we will wait what will happen on the next repair. Hopefully all will go well.

Terrible Service!
November 29, 2023

Doesn't cover what contract states that they cover. Customer service representatives act as if they can't help you. Make assumptions about how you've handled your vehicle after a " brake down". Will refuse to fix a part that is still not functioning correctly after being "fixed ".Worst experience EVER. I would not recommend Car Shield.
