We truly appreciate the great feedback, Ed! It’s wonderful to know you had such a positive experience with our Customer Service team. If there’s ever anything else we can help with, we’re only a call away.
Was easy to get the best plan.
It was easy to talk to Customer service staff and they were very helpful to get me connected to the right warranty. They explained everything to me and my husband as to what is covered and everything that I needed to know.

Good program lousy approach
I like the program in the since you only pay so much a month and are covered forever. No mileage limits. But the salespersons are extremely pushy and the price starts at $170 and winds up at $79. I feel like it’s your way into pressure people and get the most money you can. Just set a reasonable price and let the person see the value of the program.

After paying for car shield for the…
After paying for car shield for the better part of a year I tried to file my first claim. However after a little back and forth about not having it approved first (it was an emergency and this was my first claim) they agreed to process it only to again refuse because the receipt wasn't in the correct format. I paid with a credit card and attached the receipt and invoice. But because the receipt was paid with a credit card it never "zero'd out". After confirming that I couldn't get a different version of the receipt they refused to move forward with processing it. Despite confirming they could see that it was paid and the total amount. Long story they were a big waste of money for me.

Dev, we appreciate you explaining what happened and understand why you have questions about the documentation.

Supposedly I have the Diamond coverage and there is nothing Diamond about it. All I have received was the run around..$250 deductible cost me $620 all while Car Shield only paid $170. Nothing they advertised for was actualize. I feel deceived. $150 a month for 2 cars and I still had to pay $620 out pocket. Your Contract #: MRF5733336

This is contract you said you could not find
I walked through the cost with 3 customer service persons, 1 conceige, and a supervisor. Each one of them saw the disproportionate price of repairs and COULD NOT EXPLAIN THE DEDUCTIBLE, Along with the additional cost. The only thing they could say was car shield paid there part and the contract states customers may be responsible for additional costs. I ask the same question if Car Shield claims it paid for the labor and I paid for the parts. What is the deductible for?

Dana, we recognize why the difference between your deductible and final out of pocket cost raised concerns. Repair facilities may charge different amounts for parts and labor than what is authorized under the contract, which can result in additional costs. Please contact CarShield Customer Service at 1-800-587-4162 so we can take a closer look at the claim with you, walk through the cost breakdown, and address the concerns you have about your coverage.
