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.

Protect My Car is an honest company. I had the warranty for almost two years and although I never had to use it, it was good to have because it was economical in case I had a breakdown. And it would be better to pay $49 a month instead of having to pay for thousands of dollars for the transmission or engine. The payments on the warranty were easy, it was taken right out of my account.

This company has treated me fair and have been honest. They cover what they say they will. There are no surprises and I like that. Customer service was good too.

My husband is an army veteran so ProtectMyCar gave us a discount. It’s one of the reasons we chose them over different auto warranty providers. I have submitted a claim and it’s about a problem with my car window. They were able to get everything they needed to fix my window. I only paid $100 for the parts and labor. Good experience.

Protect my car Rocks!! I like this company. It has saved me over $1,000 and has made sure I have everything I need for my car. I submitted my claim and it was super easy. They take my payments out of my account directly each month, so that is convenient.

I did some research and found that Protectmycar met my requirements the most out of the other companies. They have 24 hour roadside assistance, you get free oil changes, tire rotations, small deductibles, and 30 day money back guarantee. I like this company.

I tried and picked the company that met my needs. Protect My Car has been willing to work with me on my payments plus the coverage that they had was somewhat better than others so I signed up with them. Their claims process was fairly easy and went smoothly also.

When I called Protect My Car, I had a discussion with someone over the phone, and I liked what they had to offer. I had a small issue with my car and the people who worked on it took care of everything for me. I'm satisfied with that entire experience as well as the rate I'm paying. I'd be afraid now not to have the warranty because I know how expensive it is to have a car repaired.
