Stress-free protection for your car
Multi-Shield Tips, Info & FAQs
Set of purchased protections for new or used car
Want to be protected against future problems? Looking to add value to your newly purchased car? Our Multi-Shield protection package offers a number of benefits:
Tire & Wheel Coverage includes 100% repair or replacement reimbursement for a covered road hazard. No deductible or hidden fees for tires and mounting, wheels, balancing, valve stems, sales tax and customary labor charges. Protects against metal, nails, glass, potholes and debris.
Windshield Repair—A professional technician will repair your damaged windshield. Windshield replacement can cost as much as $1,000 or more, so this will help you save on a costly windshield deductible.
Dent & Door Ding Protection for minor dents and door dings. No sanding, painting or body fillers.
Emergency Roadside Assistance including mechanical first aid, tire, battery, delivery services, extricating service, auto accident towing and lockout service. Nationwide toll-free sign and drive roadside service is available 24/7 throughout the year.
How to make sure your loan doesn't outlive your car
It’s not a pretty turn of events: having a car that no longer works, but that you’re still making payments on. Here’s how to prepare ahead and make sure this doesn’t happen:
1. Insurance
Keeping your insurance up-to-date means that when something happens, your insurance will pay you the value of your car. Depending on your insurance, it may not cover all your costs, but it can be a big help.
2. Regular maintenance
Regular maintenance helps you avoid problems in the first place. The majority of breakdowns can be avoided for years if you are careful to do regular oil changes, tire rotations, and fluid checks.
3. Gap coverage
Buying gap coverage means that your insurance company will pay you the value of your car and the rest of your loan. Often, these numbers differ, so it’s an important safety net to consider.
4. Warranty
Some companies will also let you purchase warranties for your used car. If you can’t afford a lot of risk when it comes to major car failures, this is something you should think about buying.

Reviews
Let me start by saying, Lisa is fantastic! I purchased a new vehicle and got talked into purchasing all kinds of things I didn’t need which caused my payment to go up tremendously. The dealer refused to cancel all the extras even though it was an option per the paperwork. Lisa at United Texas CU was able to assist me in getting everything canceled and money returned. I refinanced with UTCU and was very satisfied with how easy the process was. They were able to accommodate virtually and have local offices to work with. Thank you Lisa Rakus for the fantastic work and time you took to help me.
Hi Christina - Thanks so much for letting us know about your recent experience with Lisa at our Medical Center Branch. We appreciate your choice to finance your auto with us and we're happy we were able to help you get your money back on the extras. Thanks again for being a member and enjoy your new ride! -Karla :)
