My payment declined causing my plan to be void and no one called or emailed me i found out when i had to actually use the warranty . I am so disappointed in Carchex.
Carchex was recommended to me by one of the car mechanics my fam uses . I got the warranty set up over the phone . I hope i dont need to use it but having it is something that i wanted for this car .
They will call you and annoy you everyday until you buy a warranty from them .Very pushy salesman
CARCHEX i is not what it is claimed up to be. Thy refuse to pay claims .
Great service from carchex warranty and they got me a very fair prices. Thank you !
I had Carchex for over a year and every single time i needed help with a repair they gave me some bs that its not covered . i would stay away from carchex they are a joke .
I wish they would stop calling me. I have asked them over 10 times to remove my number .
We have a big family and do a lot of driving . Carchex gave us the most amount of miles with a 5 year plan . We needed the extra miles so we ended up purchasing with them .
They will take money from your account without permission. STAY AWAY FROM CARCHEX
First of all the roadside service is horrible. I ended up paying out of pocket to have my truck towed. My truck has been sitting at the repair shop for 3 weeks now waiting for them to give an approval for repairs (wheel bearing failed which is covered). They even sent their own inspector out to look at it but yet here I wait for them to send it to another Dept for approval so they can send it to another Dept for approval and so on and so on. I wouldnt recommend this company to any one. They were sure quick to take my money and promise me quick repairs, coverage and service but will look for any excuse not to have to pay for needed repairs.
I can tell you from my own experience that carchex always helps out and they provide one of the most affordable extended auto warranty out there .
Policy was updated May 25, 2021. Have yet to receive the newer policy by email or mail. Checked emails both spam and trash, nothing. Thirty day money back guarantee will end in 3 days. I have nothing in black and white but my previous contract.
Called to get an approval for belt tensioner to be fixed. The Honda dealer only had a Saturday available because leaving for a trip the next week. Royal said no one in on Saturday and work won't get approved for payment. Cars don't breakdown or need repairs only M-F. They need to work for the customer time frame not their own. I don' believe the policy says anything about the weekend and not being able approve for repairs. Also are they going to pay for the time off to have the car looked at when it's convenient for the Royal. I think this is the many hoops the company relies on to try and get out of paying claims... They make there money off of customers deciding to cancel the policy months after taking the policy out (can't get an approval) and then receiving only a small portion of the proration of the policy refunded. Also hate to think if I was broken down somewhere and trying to get a hold of someone, wait times are terrible. Rep's only talk in circles once you do get a hold of someone. Better look for a better company than this one. I give them a F+ rating.
I would not ever purchase anything from this company. They are liars. I bought a new truck and wanted to look at other warranty company other than Ford. They told me that covered everything from front to back and everything inside. Well it does not ! i paid $2751.00 It is a Joke. i give the them a negative rating. The B&B also received a call, email and letter reporting them.
I would recommend Carchex to my family and friends i was very satisfied with the warranty plan i got for my car .
I called Carchex to cancel my auto warranty plan . After terminating my account they still continued to bill me . I contacted my bank right away and disputed the charge . Very sneaky / sketchy warranty company .BUYER BEWAIR
Carchex said they're not going to cover my repair. i am very disappointed in my warranty company
Horrible company I will not spend my money with this company again or recommend them, please be aware I spent almost 4000.00 for a warranty that is NOTHING, I know I purchase emissions coverage and they told me I didn’t, don’t let the sales person double talk you, I spent a lot of money and I have been turn down multiple times. I wish I can get back half of my money and go with endurance or carshield. I don’t feel safe with this company, AND THEY DO GIVE YOU THE RUN AROUND!!!! Stay away from this company.
The service i have got from Carchex has been great . I highly recommend them to anyone that has a older car without a warranty .
When I reached out to get a price on a car warranty thru carchex i spoke with a gentleman that was very knowledgeable and i really enjoyed the conversation we had. Thank you !!
Save your money from this SCAM company . Every time i tried to use my warranty coverage i get the run around .Carchex is good for nothing .
The worst company had to sue to get paid, it took 6 months to settle
Carchex is the worst company hands down. They just want your money
I stumbled across a lot of bad reviews from carchex customers . I think im going to cancel and get my money back since i am in my first 30 days
i have been using Carchex a few months now and so far they are pretty quick to help when i call in .
Every time I call Carchex I'm on hold for at least 30 minutes. This is not ok
I had a good experience when i called to purchase a warranty for my Ford fusion .The agent i spoke with at Carchex was informative and not pushy.
Carchex did a great job explaining the policy that I purchased
Pass on getting a warranty with Carchex .There are a lot of other company's that are much better than them
Very easy to get the warranty plan set up but when you need to use the service during your car braking down It did not feel so easy .
The times I have called Carchex their response time was long
I tried to make a claim and they informed me that someone would call me back . I have still not received any call back . Pleas help
My experience with Carchex was terrible. I called for a engine light that came up. Took them forever to send a inspector .Not how i wanted to spend my day
Carchex responded quickly when i emailed them about some of my concerns. I got good customer service
I appreciated and value Carchex warranty for their quick response and resolution of my issue/concern
Very knowledgeable
My advice is to NOT buy a warranty plan with Carchex . Each time i called them it felt like i was talking with a robot who was not listening to me and they do not provide service.
Easy process to schedule a appointment with my dealership to get some work done .I will post a follow up review on how Carchex handled my repairs .
I was shopping around for a car warranty company and I called Carchex The sales rep started off pleasant but after i told them i wanted tot think about it and not purchase on that call he got extremely annoying and pushy .That is not how i do business NO THANK YOU!
After some homework Carchex warranty came up in the top three extended warranty companies online .Good monthly premium from a legit company
I called carchex for more information after seeing the commercial on TV. the lady explain exactly what was included in the coverage that I was purchasing everything went smooth .
i hope i never need to use my warranty but having peace of mind is worth the investment . I also canceled my AAA membership because carchex offers that to me for free as part of the warranty .
Waiting time is ridiculous. I have been on hold for over a hour .
I took my dodge to get a oil change and the mechanic said my water pump was bad and needed to be replaced . i had them call CARCHEX my warranty company to start a claim . it was such a disaster I was stuck with out my car for 4 days when the whole repair only takes 2 hours . This is not what i was expecting and IT was a bad first impression .
Carchex always pay what they say they will. I am thankful that i have this car warranty
I was having problems getting my repaired covered . They wanted to see service records . That is imposable i just bought the car
when buying a used car from the dealership i got on google and researched the top company's in my area of Florida Carshex looked like the right company for me with the low monthly payments they offer
I recommend this company, They understand their customers. I was helping my son find a good company and decided that carchex is the best warranty for us and his car.
I have filed two claims with Carchex and both been denied. The first claim denied was a little easier to stomach than the second claim denial. The first denial dealt with my rear axle and it was denied due to the level of coverage. The second denial was unacceptable because the camshaft sensor was a power train item and my coverage included the power train. Paying Carchex monthly and the car mechanics is not very pleasing. It would appear I have been sold a level of coverage not effective in the types of breakdowns I am experiencing.☹️☹️☹️
I am thankful that my plan has road side benefits i used the towing and rental car a few times already
Endurance's warranty has saved me $400 and I still have 2 years worth of coverage. I believe this car warranty was a good investment
I like how affordable Carchex was i got a plan stared for $50.00 down now that's a deal that cant be beat
i got a great price and great coverage. Thanks carchex
i always have a hard time reaching someone to help me.i would not recommend carchex
No other warranty company provided the low monthly payments that I needed. so i had to go with carchex . I tried to call over the weekend with some question . But no one was there to help i was told someone would call me back but still have not received a call yet .
Steve help me with my new policy I was very pleased with the way he was talking to me about it I like that you're a local out of Baltimore I would recommend anyone to get a steady warranty with them hey, my new truck
I have not had any bad experiences with Carchex and the service over the phone is always great
My wife got this as a piece of mind policy for her 2011 BMW. We had never used it. So when the starter went up we did. This was the worst. They provided a rebuilt starter. And it got worse from there. Had to use a Dealer or one of the National chains. I’m not letting A tire shop or lube shop work on a $55k car just because they are on their list of approved places. Went to the stealership. Bottom line is lost the car for five weeks got some poor service and the insurance paid less then I did. I asked several times for a itemized break down from the dealer and the insurance and got nothing. This is a scam and Carchex is trash. Save your money and never us these thieves. Research the shops that Carchex uses. They are all lo
Everything is all good with my warranty from carchex.
I had my transfer case replaced and a alternator . My only out of pocket cost was the deductible.
I am very disappointed you think that when you buy a policy and you are given a list of what is covered that they would actually cover those items. Now they expect me to pay out of pocket
I went with a service contract from Carchex and the experience was fine. It was through my repair shop when something was going on with my truck, My repair shop said next time i would need to pay out of pocket and have carchex pay me back. I am not thrilled about coming out of pocket
One of the negative is that I had to pay the taxes
Reimt9 ..r
Carchex is awesome they respond in a timely matter no problems . I recommend them
One of the biggest wastes of money
I feel secure getting an excellent warranty from your company .
They denied my claim saying it was pre existing .I find this unfair and this is a way for your company to get out of paying for my repair .This company is only after your money. I would stay away !
quick and accurate response to my questions.
This company has been good at doing what I have paid for.
The sales rep was great. He answered all my questions and got me a low monthly payment the worked with my fixed income Thank you
My experience with this company was the say the least very very bad. .I will look for another company in the future
I purchased Carchex about 3 mounts ago. The quality of the warranty is the best . I highly recommend this warranty for any car that is out of a warranty.You never know when you are going to need it.
My experience with carchex was great.
The coverage on my car has paid off
I had to wait at the shop for 4 hours because carchex would not approve a rental .
Calling in and speaking to the rep was simple and they were quick to respond. The warranty is going to start in 30 days . I hope i never need to use it
Signing up with Carchex was really easy.
Very good pricing the rep was clear and polite
The representative i spoke with when i called in for a quote was responsive and professional. He got me the lowest rate so we moved forward and i could not be happier with what i got .
Very smooth experience
Excellent coverage very pleased
I filed a claim for a ac condenser. Been waiting 3 days for them to send someone out to inspect the bad part to be able to complete repair. They have yet to do that. Once that is done I will then have to wait another 24-48 for a decision to be made. Looking at a week or longer to get a repair made that takes 2HOURS. BEEN WITHOUT A CAR BECAUSE THEY ARE DRAGGING THEIR FEET.
fast customer service thank you!!!
