    STOP!!!! DO NOT BUY THIS!!!! One star only because they didn't have a minus 1! I went to get my car serviced, Only to find that my local repair shop won't accept C.S. because they don't get paid. Having the same problem at my dealership. They want volumes of information, only to not respond to the request. I sat in the waiting room for hours thinking my car was getting fixed. They were still waiting for a answer. They told me to go home. Car was not fixed!!!!

    CarShield requested that the Administrator of your Vehicle Service Contract examine your claim based on the review you have provided. The results of this investigation indicate that the claim has been adjudicated correctly according to specific terms and exclusions of the Vehicle Service Contract.

    If I could, I wouldn't give them any stars! The worst warranty you can buy! I lost $600 counting on CarShield to pay for repairs that were listed as covered, but instead they always found a reason not to cover them! I canceled my warranty and I wrote a letter to the Headquarters asking for all my money to be refunded because they lie about their coverage. I didn't get my money back neither a response on my letter!

    I had carshield in 2020 got the max ******** plan, had no check engine light or any light on, I had ******* + on a clean carfax. 3-4 months in I had a rear main seal leak. I talked to 2 mechanics that were trusted and one told me he'd had 24 carshield customers over the years that had legitimate warrantied issues and 22 of them weren't honored. The 2 that were, were small issues. The other mechanic said in a very short tone they he doesn't waste his time with them. I asked them bout my rear main seal and immediately got shut down so I canceled and took my $500 loss... My new roommate said they got him also and all I see on TV is washed up actors swearing by carshield between 40 or so channels on multiple commercial breaks every day. It motivated me to write this review.

    Our records indicate you made 6 payments and were refunded 4 of those payments by check when you cancelled your contract in October 2020. CarShield has paid over 134 million dollars in claims in the last 12 months. We were not given the chance to approve your repairs. We are sorry to lose you as a CarShield customer. Customer Relations

    Good. It took a lot of weight off me. Got it done I heard they didn't have a good BBB rating and was thinking about canceling and then my car broke down. You guys did what you said you would do and I'm keeping it.

    Seems all the 5 star reviews are some non-specific variation of "I'm so happy, everything was great" as if quickly written by the same person. I had to haul CarShield into small claims court for a friend of mine after reviewing his issue ('14 ****** Corolla, transmission mechanical issue) and coverage. We won. I suggest others do the same. Don't fight with them. Spend the filing fee and take them to court.
