Sorry I made the choice
May 1, 2025

I was without a car for almost a week and I ended up paying for almost 1/2 of it after I have been paying monthly for as long as I have been paying, thinking I would only need to pay the deductible. They were not allow to order parts and required to use components that were not new. My car only has ******* miles even though it is 2001 and this was the original AC unit and should of been treated with more respect. I am 79 and very limited in my movement and not having a car for so long is not to my satisfaction at all.

Outstanding!
May 3, 2025

This guy is exceptional! He ordered for my car to be towed and the first tow truck driver was too expensive. He went above and beyond to get a quote that I could afford which was almost $100 cheaper! Thank you! He's truly incredible at making sure we as consumers get the best care and quality experience

1st breakdown. A learning experience.
May 2, 2025

1st breakdown called a tow truck, cause I didn't have info in truck, so had to call to see if we could get reimbursed for at least some of the tow bill. Customer service attendant we spoke with was extremely nice and helpful. Put claim in and still waiting on e-mail response about our claim ticket to see if they'll reimburse us. OUR tow truck arrived in 30 minutes. Next time will try to use their towing provider if we have number with us. Engine control module went out and was not a covered part though.

Totally Recommend!
April 19, 2025

Took care of my needs as stated in my contract. Very professional in explaining what is covered and not covered in layman terms.
Worked in a timely manner with my Repair shop so I could get my car back in a reasonable time frame.
I would totally recommend to someone who needs extra protection when their warranty expires.

CarShield Experience
April 18, 2025

The staff is professional, courteous, and efficient. However, there are times when a specialist adjuster is necessary, which can extend the repair process. I understand the need to properly adjust the claim, but it is difficult when you only have one car. Overall, I have recommended this service to people I know and would do so again.

Disappointed
May 3, 2025

Very Disappointed I was told by two representative that the full payment of my tow would be covered. Unfortunately that was incorrect information unbeknownst to me a change was made in 2023 for the plan that I have. I was not expecting to pay out of pocket especially after being reassured that the tow would be covered 100%.

Ford pick up trouble

Well I discover the many things your service will not cover. Apparently I never completed the fine print. Im thinking that you all talk a good service only to discover you all merely market your product-another company pays the real costs- making you all the middleman

Outstanding friendly service

Long wait times
April 17, 2025

My car has been in the shop for 2 weeks and I still have not heard back regarding if CarShield will cover repairs. Since I'm still waiting for authorization I cannot get a rental car reimbursed. Long delays in claims...

Changing payment method
April 23, 2025

The reason for my call was to change my credit card number for the Car Shield payments. I was disputing a charge from another company and for security purposes they cancelled that card and sent me a new one. The rep was very good helping me with that.

Great Experience with CarShield
April 27, 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!

Could not be more excited about my experience so far with my claim. I am leary as I truly expected a serious fight and will gladly update this upon the conclusion. Tamesha was so friendly and helpful... excellent customer service experience from someone who has delivered the same for more than 40 years in customer service! As I should be, every customer, every time!

Local C. S. representative stated in person had our car and he showed me hole in sidewall. But unfortunately we'd had local inclement weather and his shop had a bunch of water on floor of his shop and he said he was not going to drive a customer's car into his shop until cleared out and perhaps evaluation by an insurance representative. Told him by phone when he could get wheel and tire off and to save HIM time would throw mag wheel and ruined tire into my truck and I would have adjustment done at Firestone Store who tires on that car warranted to. So that is to happen..
