Incidents
This is a list of all consumer protection incidents this company is involved in. Any incidents not mentioned here can be found in the CarCover.com category.
CarCover.com sold many car covers under the guise of a "limited lifetime warranty". At one point the warranty and terms of conditions stated 3 car cover replacements per 1 purchased car cover. They have now updated their T&C's on their website and changed their policy to do a prorated replacement.
I've recently made a warranty claim for a product purchased in 2023 while under the 3 free replacement clause however, they are wanting to charge me the prorated fee for replacement under their updated T&C's.
Original Warranty policy: https://web.archive.org/web/20230327163228/https://www.carcover.com/terms-and-conditions#Warranty-Policy-Conditions
New Warranty policy Gold Shield 5L covers: (Cars, SUV, Truck, Van) 0-6 months: Free cover 6-12 months: 80% Off 1-2 years: 70% Off 2-3 years: 60% Off 3-5 years: 50% Off 5+ years: 40% Off
