Overall Rating: 4.4 / 5 (Excellent)

Protect My Car provides vehicle warranties with coverage tiers, a cancellation policy, and rules regarding claims that are all industry-standard.

Unlike several of its competitors, however, Protect My Car’s liability limit is a flat rate, rather than dependent on the covered car’s specific value.

This allows customers to clearly manage the details of their policies. The company has an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau and a "Great" score of 7.4 out of 10 on Trustpilot, which speaks to its excellent customer service.

This is no scam, no hidden surprises like some other companies I've dealt with in the past. This company is legitimate. They have held up their end of the deal. They've saved me money, time, and stress. Couldn't be happier.

I called Protect My Car, had a discussion with someone over the phone, and I liked what they offered. I had a little issue with my car and the people who worked on it took care of everything for me. I feel pretty safe with having Protect My Car.

I called Protect My Car and had a conversation with someone over the phone, and I liked what they offered. I had a little problem with my car and the people who worked on it took care of everything for me. I gave them my information and the number that I had, and they took care of it from there. They told me everything was taken care of and they did not have any problem at all. I'm satisfied with that entire experience as well as the rate I'm paying.

I've only used Protect My Car once, but they took care of me. I gave this old number to my guy at the Chevy place. He looked it up, fixed my car and it only cost me $100. I check the payment out on the 27th of every month. Even when I don't have the money in the bank, if I call them, they will hold it off until the next week. I've had to do that a couple of times and it's very nice. It keeps me out of paying the bank $35 fee. It's been a pretty great experience overall.

I saved $1,100 using protect my car. I definitely didn't have a thousand dollars to spend on a repair bill and was so glad I got coverage. Only having to pay $100 deductible is so worth it. Now I have extra money to spend on other stuff I need.

They helped me out when my AC went out this past summer and they were life savers. I saved over $600 and all the stress and hassle of dealing with the repair shop. I'd recommend them.
