Expensive car troubles Q: | I heard you talking about vehicle protection. I have two teenagers, and my wife and I each have our own cars. If someone's car has a big problem — or if more than one of us does — I don't know how we'll afford it. Do you recommend this for us? | A: | The stress of seeing that check engine light come on is real, and that only gets worse with lots of drivers under one roof. When something breaks, it could cost a fortune. That’s where CarShield comes in. They offer customizable and flexible payment plans with no long-term contracts — plus, you can choose your favorite mechanic or dealership to do the work. They also offer complimentary 24/7 roadside assistance and a rental car while yours is being fixed. I LOVE CarShield. They recently took care of a huge repair bill on my Mother's old car.
