  • Review fromLeo G

    Car Shield told me initially They Covered Auto SYSTEMS not covered by regular Car Insurance. They implied all was covered. Living in Arizona and anticipating problems caused by heat, I bought and paid on their Policy for many months. My Cooling System went out and they Refused to cover it. They did not tell me there were "exceptions" to their coverage.

    I have been on the phone for the past 3 days trying to get my car repaired. I need a new confessor for my air conditioner. They said my mechanic would receive it on Tuesday. They never received it and car shield said they could not track the package. On Wednesday we still did not receive it and found out it was out of stock. NEVER WAS INFORMED! They agreed to let me have a rental car with **********. Went down to get my rental and they had none available. Today is the fourth day with no car. I have asma and am 72 years old. I need a car.

    I called to cancel my car shield because I lost my job and could no longer afford it, I spike with ******* to cancel and I kept being pressured to just take aower payment, I can't afford it, she kept arguing with me instead of just canceling it for me, They only care about the almighty dollar and I did not appreciate the way she handled things and the pressuring. Horrible company

    This company is a joke. They look for every possible way to get out of paying for repairs. Don't waste your money buying their coverage, you will be extremely disappointed and frustrated!!

    Very happy to have this service! A/C compressor went out and they covered the $859 service and I paid the $100 deductible. I was Uber excited.

    Due to all the bad reviews on Car Shield my husband and I chose to cancel our policy. While trying to do so I was offered the gold package for a much lesser price and then when I said no to him he just hung up on me. When I called back I was cut off while still talking. I finally got hold of someone that actually helped me with cancelling the policy.
