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.

I researched a few different companies online and then heard of this one over the radio one morning and it caught my attention. They have good prices and have better benefits. I'm happy I heard them and decided to go with them over the other companies. Their reviews also were good which helped me decide.

My AC went out last summer and I was so glad I had my warranty with Protect My Car. They saved me a bundle of cash and worked very well with me. The claims process was simple. I recommended them to a friend.

After additional review I am finding myself paying a lot more money than I anticipated in the repair of my vehicle. PMC is only paying 25% of necessary repairs. which still leaves a large balance on my vehicle repair cost. Needless to say this type of coverage is useless.

ProtectMyCar.com has been a real blessing for my family. We were driving home from my moms and my children's grandparents home late one night after having dinner and movie. My car broke down on the side of the interstate when my wife reminded me of the vehicle service contract that we have with Protect My Car. I called into the roadside assistance toll free number to see if they could get a tow truck out to get us picked up. The tow truck arrived in 25 minutes, hooked our car up, and brought my children, wife and I home.
