  I purchased a lifetime warranty car cover from CarCover.com on Oct. 22,2019 with free delivery. It failed on or before Sept. 18, 2022. I requested a free replacement which I was given on Sept. 30,2022 for a $30 fee. The replacement cover failed about Oct. 29,2024. I have requested a replacement again. Car Cover will replace it for $84 now. In two or three years and the cover fails the price will rise again and soon you will just be buying a new cover every 3 years. This company knows it cover will not last as they indicate in their advertisement, and they will not stand behind their product. They should not be allowed to offer a lifetime warranty.

  Thank you for reaching out and sharing your concerns. We understand your frustration and want to ensure you have the best experience with our product. Our lifetime warranty follows a prorated replacement schedule, allowing continuous coverage for as long as you own the cover. While there is a replacement fee based on usage over time, we always aim to provide a fair and affordable solution. To better assist you, we’d like to offer you a replacement for $60 as a goodwill gesture. We value your trust and appreciate your feedback. Please let us know how you’d like to proceed. Best regards, CarCover.com Support Team

  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.  The company is pro rating the cover from the date of the purchase of the first cover on October 22,2019.  The cover I am requesting to be replace was the replacement cover (2nd cover) I received on September 30,2022 and failed on October 29,2024.  On the first cover I agreed to pay a $30 shipping fee, even though the original had free shipping.  I will agree to paying $30 as before, if in 2-3 years when the cover fails again a fair shipping fee is also charged.  I do feel the cover should be replaced for free.  The company should not advertise a lifetime warranty when they do not stand behind it.  Regards,  ****** *******

  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  I offered to pay the $30 that they charged me 2 years ago for shipping to replace the cover, but instead they will simply keep increasing the replacement cost each time till it is not feasible to replace it.  How do you pro rate a lifetime warranty?  Who's lifetime? If I am 80 years old does this mean 2 years is a lifetime, or if I am 20 years old does it mean a 62 year warranty?  This was not the case when I bought the first cover and the $30 was for shipping, not a prorated amount.  I will pay $35 for shipping, to cover a increase in cost.   Regards,  ****** *******

  I purchased a car cover with lifetime warranty. It was supposed to be the best cover with 5 layers of material, it costed me around $200 dollars. I bought it in nov 2023 in anticipation of moving to Florida and won’t have a garage anymore. I didn’t move to Florida in April of 2024 and did not use the cover right away. I probably only have about 6 months of use and it’s already falling apart. The material is ripping and rips easily especially when there is moisture under the cover that happens ever morning. I have a hole on top I covered with tape temporarily. I sent an email to the company with photos and told me I had to pay a 70 dollar fee. When I called the company they lowed it down to 50 and made some excuse that they “improved” the product. Supposedly it’s washable but I did not even attempt this bc it’s too bulky and it would probably just fall apart. I bought this on the false premise that it is water resistant and it is not. Water gets trapped underneath without it even have rained. I’m hesitant to spend 50 dollars on a sub par product that has only lasted about 6 months of use. No where did I see on their description that their “lifetime” warrantee requires a fee to replace. They also have a website by the same owner called carcoverstore.com and carcovers.com and I think it’s meant to confuse people. Their “lifetime warrantee” is deceitful and I should not have to pay 50 to replace.

Please contact us to resolve this matter.

  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  As stated, I ORDERED IN 2023 and did not use until 2024. I used less than a year and it’s FALLING APART. you should make your “lifetime warrantee “ clear but instead u put it in the small print on purpose. Why don’t u put it in the banner that u have “lifetime guarantee “??? You are a bunch of scammers [To assist us in bringing this matter to a close, we would like to know your view on the matter.] Regards, Gina Aversano

  Purchased 10/23/22 Received 11/04/22 Paid 297.49 This is for an RV cover that was advertised as a lifetime warranty and promised that craftsmanship and high quality were included. I have had to write to them several times in regard to missing a strap when it was delivered hindering the proper use to cover my RV. After several emails and almost 2 months later I finally received the strap needed. Now, not even 2 years of having this product it has ripped in several spots and has a huge hole on the top on the cover leaving my RV subject to rain, snow and sun. I took the time to read reviews about this product before my purchase and was swayed by the promise of the craftsmanship and to cover against any defect in the material. I certainly did not climb on top of my RV to rip a hole in the cover and this is absolutely a defect on the products part. When emailing them to let them know about this issue they sent an email back stating they would send me a replacement for $174.99. After less than 2 years of having this cover, I should not pay anything with a lifetime warranty as they claim. I have now gone on to read complaints about this company and people having the same problem as I am. I honestly would love to get a refund and find a more trustworthy company who actually follows through. I understand that most likely will not happen so I would accept a replacement so that way I have time to find a more reputable company to purchase a cover from later on. As for now, it is about to be the season of rain and snow and I need my RV covered.

  My husband and I purchased a camper cover for our camper on April 2nd from carcover.com. It arrived on April 5th and it did not fit our camper (it was too big). I reached out immediately to the company and expressed it was the wrong size; mind you, they guarantee the fit or your money back. That was not the case. We went back and forth and agreed upon keeping it and receiving 55% back. Prior the agreement, I did ask (having this in writing) since we are getting a refund back, would that void the warranty? They stated "no". We put the cover on and when we took it off a couple weeks ago, we noticed 2-3 holes already. I reached out again and they stated that they can give me a prorated price of $89.99 for a replacement. In the company's "terms and conditions", if it is in the 0-3 month grace period, it's 100% free of charge. I called and spoke to the "General Manager", Issac, and he told me that the warranty WAS voided and he was doing us a favor giving us a good deal for $89.99. He also expressed that he could give us $20 off and reinstate the warranty. I was very confused and decided to reach out to you because this is AWFUL. It was very unprofessional and unsetting. I felt like it definitely needed to be brought to someone's attention. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I look forward to hearing from you!

  Sold me a car cover that is top of the line so it cost more also. I paid for expedited shipping. I received the cover and it is too long for my vehicle. So long that it hangs to the ground. Emailed to inform them of situation. They asked for pictures. I sent them. And inquired again about a resolution. They asked for pictures again. I inquired again and they asked for pictures again. So I sent them along with a note. They wrote back and said that my car does qualify. They said they would send a replacement. I went to the website within a couple days to track my package. Seen that my account with them was disabled. I wrote them asking why my account was disabled and that I couldn't have a tracking # for my replacement. And why I'm not getting expedited shipping since that's what I paid for with my 1st package. I was told that there having problems with their system and that I can rest assured that my package has shipped. So they still haven't giving me a tracking #, but feel good that it's shipped.couple days later I receive a text with a link from **** saying my package was held back cuz of incomplete address info. Now I've seen plenty of these scam texts with malware link. I email the cover company and inform them of link. And to ask for a tracking #. They ask for pictures of my cover again. Asked for my address. But still no tracking #.so it's obvious my cover wasn't shipped. Feel like they are running my 30 day limit on a return out. I WANT A REFUND SO I CAN BUY FROM **** ****. I am still within my 30 days. I've called. And i get a message telling me to email them. And it's difficult to get to their website because there is another company that is spelled very similar. Theirs is Car covers.com. I'm never able to speak to a person, and I'm getting the familiar texts with links that I know are bad links.

  On 4-15-24, I order a car cover for my completely stock 1978 **** ****** in the amount of $79.99 from CarCover.com order#, *********. They offer a perfect fit 30 day money back guarantee. My cover didn't fit properly and I asked to return the cover for a refund. They then offered to replace it with a cover that fit. I gave them the measurements to assure I'd receive the appropriate cover. They again asked if the vehicle has been altered. I replied, "no it does have the factory spare tire carrier on the back". They acknowledged that this issue was the problem with the fit and that I should have let them know. But they only on one fit listed on there sit for a 78 **** ****** that is guaranteed to fit. Now they aren't offering to replace it or refund. I purchased a cover from *****, another car cover business, 3 years ago that fit perfectly and my spare wasn't an issue. Their listing didn't specify any differences. Some 1978 **** ******* had the spare on the back while others did not. It's not my fault they aren't knowledgeable about their listing.

  I originally purchased a Gold Shield 5L car cover for $150. I chose this particular cover over others because it is advertised with a Lifetime Warranty. The cover eventually failed -- holes developed and the inner fleece material became thin and disintegrated. When I asked for a replacement under warranty, the company insisted on a $30 payment, apparently to cover shipping costs. This is unfair as shipping would not be necessary if the product didn't fail. Modern-day warranties also do not make the customer pay anything (not even shipping) for a product that fails through no fault of the customer and is replacable under warranty. There is also nothing about replacement costs on their website nor in their warranty policy (attached). Reluctantly, I paid the $30 and received a replacement cover 5 months ago in October 2023 (order #*********). This replacement cover has now failed. I asked for a replacement and they insisted on $60 this time. When I asked for an exception to this cost given that (a) this is the second failure, (b) the cover is only 5 months old and (c) the customer should not have to pay anything for a warrantied product, they said they would lower the replacement cost to $40. There is nothing in their literature about any costs required for a replacement under warranty. See the attached PDF of their Terms and Conditions on their web site as of this writing (8:45am Pacific Time, 3/20/24). These costs also seem to vary at their whim ($30, then $60, then $40) and have no specification in their policies nor any tangible way to acsertain their true value or necessity. I am seeking a replacement Gold Shield 5L cover at no cost additional cost to me.

  Better Business Bureau: I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.I am again rejecting this reply based on the same facts that (a) there is nothing in their policies about having to pay for shipping a replacement; (b) this is the second failure of their product; (c) the cover has failed after only 5 months and based on their Terms & Conditions, it is eligible to be replaced for free (0-6 month failure FREE replacement see previous attachment of Terms & Conditions).There are NUMEROUS complaints found in BBB and elsewhere of this company not standing behind their "warranty" and trying to make customers pay for shipping when there is nothing in their policies about this.This cover has failed after only 5 months, is within their warranty Terms for a free replacement, and needs to be replaced at no charge to me to resolve this complaint.

  Order #********* (placed on September 15, 2020 9:26:32 AM EDT) I order a RV cover for our 5th wheel from there website. They state a lifetime Warranty. Here is there policy from there site.   Warranty Policy With numerous companies available, you may be wondering which one is the best choice and why. Well, at ************, we're confident that our covers are top-notch. The likelihood of you having to replace your cover is small, however, if you ever have any issues, our Lifetime Warranty has got you covered.. How does the warranty work? We'll replace your cover with a brand new one if ANYTHING happens to it. This includes defects, soiling, fading, disintegration, stains, rips, and normal wear and tear. How to file a warranty claim? Send us an email us to ********************* and one of our agents can guide you through your claim. _ I have 5 Rips on one side of the cover. Two of them are very big holes. I sent in a claim and there telling me That I need to Pay them $ 239.00 for them to replace it. They said because of the age of cover ( which is 4 years old) that it is prorated because of age. The warranty states nothing about prorated. IT say life time warranty hence one of the reasons we bought it. This needs to be replace as the warranty states or Refund my $399.99.

  Bought a cover for my pop up camper 1/9/21. This cover had deterioration problems from the start with the cover shedding heavily anytime it was removed no matter how delicately. 5/15/23 I try to file a claim for the cover that tore a couple months ago during the winter. They tell me they will send out a replacement but it will be $95 shipping. I can get a set of 4 truck tires shipped from the opposite coast for less. I already paid $260 which is well more than double everyone else is charging only for you to hit me for more money on replacement for a sub-par cover. The person I spoke to via email said the shipping was $95 because it was “coming out of Canada”. I really don’t care where it’s coming from, this is ridiculous.

  Thank you for reaching out, and we appreciate your understanding. As outlined in our terms and conditions, we do not cover the cost of shipping for replacement items. While we acknowledge your concern, the shipping fee reflects the handling of a heavy cover, and unfortunately, we are unable to waive this cost.
  To demonstrate our commitment to resolving this matter, we can, however, offer a reduced fee. Please let us know if you would like to proceed with the replacement, and we'll ensure the process is as smooth as possible for you.
  If you have any further questions or require additional assistance, feel free to reach out.
  Thank you for your understanding.
