You will not get your money back.
My problem with Car Shield is that they debited my account monthly for a whole year and the first time I need their services, they refused to pay for car repairs. The claim adjusters were rude and belittling on the phone. I even used a car repair shop they recommend,
They do not pay!! Beware!!
THANK YOU!!!
Thanks to all that posted reviews on this company. I almost gave them my business.
Warranty Service
This company expects your used car to be in new car condition when you contract their service. to be declined a claim due to pre-existing conditions knowing the car is used is puzzling.
Carshield is a scam. Don't waste your money.
This pertains to Carshield Auto Warranty. I have taken my car to the shop for the third time and was denied. My car was in the shop for three different issues, and an excuse for each was given for the denial. In total, I will have come out of pocket $9,000.00. Every issue has included my drivetrain. I spoke to a representative and clarified my policy to see if I was covered on this latest issue and was told I was covered. Hindsight is 20/20, and if I knew all of this, I would have saved my money instead of giving it to Carshield. I canceled my policy today and wasted two years and $2,500.00 for nothing. I will never recommend Carshield to anyone, even my enemies. I feel like a fool for falling for this scam and should have canceled after the first issue. I would give this company 0 stars if I could. This is for anyone out there, avoid this company. This company is a scam.
RIP Off
They don't cover what they say, twice I have been refused coverage on items they said they would cover with their premium plan.
I believe Carshield is a scam.
I had carshield for several months when I was driving across country from Michigan to Arizona. When I was in New Mexico my engine blew. I had no warning whatsoever.
My car was less than 5 years old at the time. Carshield said they would not cover it because I would have had a warning. So I cancelled it and they still took out the next months payment from my bank account.
Respect your customers and do not lie to them
CarShield will take your money and they will not fix your car, they always give you excuses not to fix your car...
Do Not Subscribe To Carshield
I rate CarShield a Minus 5 (-5). There are way too many hoops to jump through to get vehicle repaired.
My truck has been sitting in the parking lot over a week waiting on authorization from CarShield to do the repairs while CarShield flops back and forth between adjustors.
Bottom Line DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT SUBSCRIBE TO CARSHIELD. Trust the BBB "F" rating. It's a scam and a waste of time and money.
so true
Ding Dong The Wicked Witch Is Dead!!!!
I wish there was a minus one star. This company is horrible. DO NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM CARSHIELD. They will deny any claim and that’s if you can find a mechanic who will accept them. They are rude as well. AVOID THEM.
I don't know if any auto extended warranties are worth it but I know this is the worst I’ve ever seen. The people are ruthless and rude, so I hope if you try this again it won't be with CARSHIELD!
so true
DO NOT SIGN WITH CAR SHIELD
so true
Carshield buy your car parts like there professionals, not the actual car shop
Lousy, Carshield decided to find their own car parts. Meanwhile, your car is sitting in a lot days. The actual shop had the parts I let them put it on, instead of Carshield, I had my car back less than an hour. I didn't get any support from carshield at all and I haven't saved no money.
so true
They find every excuse not to pay for fixing my car. I have towing with my insurance already and phone company. This company deserves a bad rating. Mad mother of three
Car Shield is the worst provider of car warranty services. They have a load of exclusions for things they are not going to cover. They advertise that they cover over 6,000 parts and that is a lie. They list over 6,000 parts they do not cover, so the only way they will pay is the motor or transmission falls out of the car without other components failing.
This is the worst Auto Warranty insurance in the country, choose someone else, Don't pay for this crock...They don't care about people, my daughter is on her last leg (on dialysis) trying to care for her two children and pregnant sister with no car. Join me in suing this company. They owe us better coverage, a better description of what they do cover and better service.
so true
Zero stars - They won't cover your repairs
To be clear, I am not even giving them 1 star, but because this site requires that I pick at least 1 star. This company does not even deserve 1 star.
I have a 2016 Smart ForTwo Pure. It has less than 50,000 miles on it. In December of 2021 I decided it would be a good idea to get a repair warranty to cover anything that went wrong.
Fast forward to January of 2023. My car displays a warning "Transmission malfunction. Visit workshop". No, I'm not paraphrasing, that was the exact message. Given that this car is build by Mercedes Benz, and that I purchased it, after leasing it for 3 years, from a local Mercedez Benz dealership, I had the car towed to their service department. I followed Car Shield's instructions, and gave the service writer my Car Shield contract documents. He said that they would diagnose the problem, and then submit the repair recommendation to Car Shield for approval.
Two weeks later, after I had to agree to $400 worth of more diagnostics demanded by Car Shield, Car Shield denied the claim. They refused to cover it because, apparently, the "dry clutch" (this is an automatic transmission) was the cause of the failure and the clutches are not covered under their Diamond contract (for which I have been paying $137 a month).
The cost to repair would be almost $12,000 dollars, which I cannot afford, and which is more than double the blue book value of this car in good condition, Not to mention I still owe $3,000 to the bank on the car. So now, I have a useless vehicle. I am out more than $400 for the diagnostics, and I have to dispose of the car.
so true
Uncooperative Customer Service
Wow! After reading all the reviews I am definitely NOT going to buy this policy. Thanks to all of you for the warnings. I hope more people take the time to do their research.
They Suck! Hands Down For Customers And Shops!
I am an auto repair shop in Las Vegas. Currently I have 4 claims on going. I can't get anyone to call me back, and when I do they put us off requesting insane requests. I've had vehicles in my shop over 1 month and still don't have a proper claim going. I'm ready as a shop owner to stop servicing this company!
Scammers
CarShield???
I purchased not one but two warranties from CarShield at least two years ago because I was impressed by the actors and the sports personalities that they used to push their products.
About a month ago my car had an issue with the engine and when I contacted them to inform them of the issue, it took them a while to get back to me. Then once they contacted me, I was told that it could be fixed and they gave me about 8 locations to contact.
When I contacted these locations, I was told that they did not do that type of work. I called CarShield and spoke with a representative who stated that they are not aware of what these locations practice as far as fixing cars.
I replied then why would you recommend them if you didn't know what they do. Sounds a little strange to me so I asked to talk to a supervisor. No help there either. She played the part of being concerned by trying to call the places while I was on the phone but with no success.
She said that she would call me back the next day and I am still waiting. They are a scam and I am disappointed at the fact they these actors and sport personalities who I look up to are out here helping scam people along with common folk making it seem like they are best and scamming people out of their money.
I will be contacting the Better Business Bureau to seek assistance. This is just wrong. Since they make you place a rating, I put one star but i would have preferred to put nothing.
stole my money
MEPCO CAR SHIELD May not be as reliable as the commercial says. I will update this tomorrow when I get my bill. More to follow!
I just took my car to get fixed because the CHECK ENGINE LIGHT was on. I was told they have to replace 3 injectors and my bill will be 1,098 dollars. The garage just informed me that this is not covered. When I bought this policy; I was told that I would pay $99 no matter what the cost. Did I get ripped off when I bought this warranty? I will find out later when I call them.
More to follow!!
