CarShield vs Delta Auto Protect

CarShield is a vehicle protection provider founded in 2005 and headquartered in St. Peters, Missouri. They offer several coverage levels for mechanical and electrical repairs, ranging from powertrain-focused protection to broader plans, with options for older and high-mileage vehicles as well as electric vehicles, motorcycles, and ATVs. Eligible vehicles can qualify for coverage with up to 300,000 miles, while contract-dependent perks may include roadside assistance, towing, rental reimbursement, and trip interruption coverage. Customer feedback is mixed, with CarShield holding a 4.1 out of 5 rating on Trustpilot based on tens of thousands of reviews. They are also accredited by the Better Business Bureau with an A+ rating, although their BBB profile shows a substantial complaint history. Their broad plan selection, high-mileage eligibility, contract terms, pricing, and claims experience provide several areas worth examining more closely before choosing coverage.

Delta Auto Protect was a nationwide extended auto warranty provider that pays for covered vehicle repairs in case of breakdown. However, the company shut down their website in 2020 and stopped accepting new customers. This was due to downsizing in staff, which was due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
