Description

This after market car insurance. I saw and add called the number and was told about the protection coverage. I was given a price of $106.00 per month for my 2015 Toyota Avalon. I paid into this program for almost 3 years before an issue came up with my electrical system. The repair cost was approximately $1,700.00. I was told to give my information to the dealer and that Car Shield would pay them directly. This did not happen. I was contacted and told that Car Shield refused payment. I called Car Shield and was told that they were out of business; and they would not be able to help me. A day later I was contacted by I believe was Ensure auto. They told me they were taking over for Car Shield and that they would pay $700.00 if I agreed to sign on with them and that they could help me get my money back from Car Shield. That cost went up to $165.00 per month. I did this for 2 months - nothing happened. At this point I realized I had been taken. I canceled with Ensure Auto. I then posted this story on face book to protect others. Now I am seeing advertising on TV for Car Shield and I am furious that they are allowed to continue to operate as a business in Ohio. This prompted me to contact you.
