We've been going round and round and round and around. We haven't gotten anything done and you keep sending people out there and they all have the same opinions and she sent somebody out there that maybe knows something different.

That is unfortunate and we’re sorry we couldn't help. We can only cover the parts listed on your policy. Hopefully, we can help with your next repair.

I had my GMC Sierra towed to the GMC dealer 8 days ago and filed a claim with Car Shield for transmission repairs &/or replacement. The claim still has not been adjudicated! Their claims service is very slow! I'm still waiting after 8 days! Very disappointing!

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 am very pleased with Car Shields quick response on a claim my transition service shop submitted. Just 5 days from claim submitting to back on the road in 5 days. I had to pay a little over my deductible, however I am pleased it was repaired & paid so quick. 5 star service for sure.

I have been fortunate with carshield's nice knowledgeable associates who know what to do and how to connect me with the appropriate shop or dealership for my repairs.
I have asked what experience the shop or dealership has had with carshield with payment and each time
I was told that they're one of the better auto service companies.

I worked with one of the Customer Service men at Marietta Nissan Autonation, and he handled everything with Car Shield. It went very smoothly from my end. You would have to contact Joseph in the Customer Support center for Auto Repairs to evaluate his experience with Car Shield. I really didn't have any contact with them except for getting my car towed to dealership. I was pleased with the service that was provided. If there is anything else, please let me know.

Fast and professional.
November 18, 2023

I heard an unusual noise from under the hood of my car as my wife was pulling into our driveway. This car is a Hybrid and I had never heard this noise before. It only made the sound when the gas engine was running
I made an appointment at my dealership and informed Car Shield that I had. It turned out that the transmission part that was unserviceable was the culprit. Car Shield was right on it. Between the dealership and Car Shield, the decision was made to replace the transmission and by doing so, I got a 2yr unlimited mileage warranty with the repair. I would highly recommend Car Shield to anyone, they really do take care of their clients. Of I could give 6 or 7 stars I would...
