Did what they say. Satisfaction!
April 29, 2025

In approximately 5 years I've used CAR SHILD TWICE. THE SAVINGS HAVE recently equaled the total of the payments. Plus the security in knowing expense of repair is covered. NO BRAINER. CAR SHIELD HAS TREATED ME RIGHT. They did what they say.

Neither the sales person or customer service could tell me where in the Car Shield Agreement it states "Unlimited Mileage". I was told that a supervisor would contact me with that answer and I have not heard from anyone.

Marissa, we understand your concerns. However, there are a couple of sections in the contract, including the Declarations Page, that indicate the contract renews in monthly increments. If you have any further questions or concerns, please contact our Customer Service at 1-800-587-4162.

The company's done much better with customer service than, say, a year ago, but there was a time lag in getting the inspection done. That said, it really saved me a ton of money.

Great Experience with CarShield
April 28, 2025

My experience with Car Shield has been awesome. My claim was accepted and my car was repaired shortly after it started leaking oil from the engine. Car Shield paid the claim without hesitation. I highly recommend anyone needing coverage to get in touch with Car Shield. Rest assured with the right coverage on your auto!

I had taken my car to Kia Service to get my air fixed, as it was blowing hot air. I was then advised several things required fixing on my vehicle. I then advised the servicer I had Car Shield. I called customer service and was advised the plan I had appeared to cover the details in question. Kia service worked with Car Shield and now my car is fixed. Thank you

Sydney, that is unfortunate and we’re sorry for the inconvenience. After further review of your account, it appears the parts that were needed for the repair were not listed for coverage on your contract. You are at a great level of protection and we would be happy to go over the details and parts listed for coverage with you. Please call our Customer Service at 1-800-587-4162 if you have any further questions or concerns.
