Hassle free, the new and only way I will buy a car now. We came in thinking we may drive away without the vehicle because I was too good to be true. When drove way we couldn't believe it was really that simple to buy a vehicle. We trade in a vehicle with a high monthly payment, we got an suv that we loved and lower our payment.

Car was to be delivered on set date. I took off work. Received a phone call from advocate saying as long as I uploaded 2 forms of address verification by 9 pm car would be delivered as scheduled. I immediately uploaded forms. Online account status was “you’re all set, sit back and get excited about your car” then morning of delivery I get an email saying I didn't complete required documents and my delivery was cancelled but I could reschedule. I tried chatting with an advocate (you can’t call them directly) and spent 45 minutes with a rude person who answered none of my questions. Won’t use again!

Hello, I just want to say what an amazing team you have at Carvana! I needed a new car once my old car was no longer useful. This is the best car buying experience I have had in my whole life. I would love to be in one of your commercials someday just to tell people how amazing you all are!

When I looked online the purchase my 2017 xt5 Cadillac there was no cosmetic issues on the door panels but when it was delivered to me there were issues on the door panel which I asked him to fix. Never really got an answer. Had the car for 2 weeks. Disappointed but I want to keep the car because everything else is pretty much in order outside of the reclining seat that needs a new Switch.

Best car buying experience I have had. Love my new vehicle. It was effortless and stress free. I recommend to everyone I talk to. Would definitely go through Carvana again. Everything was done and ready to go before the vehicle was even delivered. Awesome experience. Everyone was friendly, helpful and great to work with. They also gave me more for my vehicle than any of the local dealers were willing to which greatly helped.

Thank you for making this process fun and easy and taking the hard work out of finding my perfect vehicle. My credit wasn’t great and it was comforting to know that I could still get a reliable vehicle for me and my family at a price I could afford with teens that work for me.

The new car seemed great until I cleaned it myself. Inside and outside were pretty clean. Literally an inch of mud coating everything under the car! I couldn't do that to a car if I had ll day. Never seen anything like it. I'm strangely still excited about the car so I clean it myself. Took me 45 minutes to get it off with a pressure washer. Chunks falling off like coffee cups. Carvana offered to pay me $100 to pay for a detail but not until the 7 day return window was closed. Whatever. Then, I picked up a friend to go to the airport. When we hit 55 mph the car started shaking uncontrollably. At this point I immediately called to exchange it. Exchange was pretty easy. Same make and model. But I lose the $100 for my cleaning effort.
I get a call the day of pickup on the exchange vehicle telling me that the car has 33,000 miles instead of 3,200 miles as advertised! So we had to change the price and jump through all sorts of hoops to get the deal done. More miles than I wanted but I just wanted it to be over. At pickup, the car vending machine wasn't working so I didn't get that satisfaction. The car had some chips in the windshield that were not disclosed. They agree to buy me a new windshield. The glass contractor they hired gave me an 8am - 5pm window of time when they will come to my house and do the work. Come to find out that they knew all along that they weren't possibly going to get to my house until late afternoon but didn't bother to tell me. 6:15 PM rolls around and they still haven't come. I cancelled the service. Now I'm going somewhere else to get the window taken care of. Still unresolved.
The whole thing was just so disappointing. The inspection process must be flawed to get a car that literally shakes at highway speed and is covered in thick mud. Everyone was very nice along the way but nobody is empowered to really help me. Nobody has a "Here's what we're going to do for you because we royally screwed up". Sorry this. Sorry that. "I didn't write the rules". They've really tried to make things mechanical and straightforward but when you need them to bend they don't. When you need satisfaction you don't get it. So yes. 1 star. sorry.

First purchase in 2022 was thrilling, made special with bow, balloons, restaurant gift card, no delivery charge, very instagram-y, one of a kind experience. That’s all gone now. Here’s the coin, here’s the car, sign and get out. No high touch, nothing special. Very “take it or leave it”, plus we charge you $400 for this crap service. Would not do again.

Carvana claims they do a thorough inspection, but they don't. Shortly after purchase started having trouble with power steering and shop found that there was damage to the vehicle that should have been easily identified if they looked under the vehicle. It had clearly hit something or jumped a curb prior to purchasing. Manufacture warranty was voided on the power steering because someone had tried to "fix" it without taking it in somewhere which if they inspect under the hood they would have seen. They do not want to take any accountability or extend the limited warranty. The 3 months I have owned the car it has been in the shop longer than in my possession.

The process of ordering the was smooth and simple. My biggest issue was with the verification process as I only found out after the fact that my licenses would need to be updated to be accepted as well as certain address verification could not be accepted even though it met the guidelines. This lead to me having to contact customer service multiple times as the AI chatbot did not help in the slightest. I can't say much better for the customer service team as they acted rudely, told me I would lose my purchase and offered no assistance, even though it was information I couldn't have know before the purchase, lied to me about my address verification documents being approved, and over relied on canned responses to push through the conversation. If purchasing again through Carvana I would absolutely prepare an abundance of documentation ahead of the purchase just to save myself the time and headache.

I bought the car and picked it up. Went 80 miles on the I-75 and had no brakes, managed to get the car to a safe place to have it towed. Found out it wasn't checked out. The brake line hose was rubbing on the tire and broke the line. Had 55 pounds air in the front tire and the rest had 44 lb. Car only had 3000 miles. Had the car towed and repaired. I also had Silver Rock repair coverage. Turned all expenses in and they said it is covered, Carvana said it was covered. I still am fighting them to get reimbursed for the repair and the car rental. This is not good. I'm at the point I need an attorney to get my money back.

Happy with the vehicle but not the overall service. I had to call numerous times to get the insurance info worked out and be the mediator between the insurance company and Carvana which to me is unacceptable. At times I felt like Carvana did not want me to purchase the vehicle from all the back and forth for 3 days trying to meet their deadlines. Other than that after all the running around I did I made it worth my while....

The whole sales experience was seamless. So much better than a dealership. No haggle price. The 7 day trial gave me a good feel about the purchase. The guarantee of no vehicles having been in a flood was reassuring. The delivery also was great. The lady was very informed, courteous and friendly. Highly recommend this buying experience.

I absolutely hate buying cars. I am 62 years old and have purchased quite a few cars in my time. The waiting at the dealership while the salesman "Goes back to check with his manager." Is not something that I missed. The normal 5 hours sitting at the dealership didn't happen this time. This was by far the easiest and most pleasurable car buying experience I have ever had. The website walked me through each and every step. And then the grand finale was walking out my door to my car being delivered to my door!

My daughter bought a car from Carvana last year. She's not been able to drive it since purchase and it has sat in now shop or another since she got it with no one able to diagnose the issue. The warranty through Silver Rock was worthless as the shop sat on it, threw parts at the issue and finally the warranty expired. When we called both Silver Rock and Carvana they both said there was nothing they could do because the warranty was expired, as if we had not been waiting for their shop to address the issue. The Hyundai dealership thinks they know what the issue is but now the repair is on us, a half a year of car and insurance payments later while it sat in one parking lot or another. The process might be convenient, but don't expect a trouble-free vehicle or any satisfaction from their warranty process. I recommend buying a car from another company, Carvana does not care about their customers when they have your money. We are considering legal action to recover expense for repairing the vehicle.

Attempted to purchase a vehicle, submitted the funds by money transfer from my bank account and was called 15 minutes later, at 6 pm on a Friday by Carvana rep advising I must secure insurance by end of business day. I tried to explain it was outside of business hours in NY and they said my delivery date that I was required to select during purchase process would be canceled but they would hold the car in purchase pending for 48 hours. I secured insurance the following day on Saturday and uploaded the certificate of insurance. I was called again and advised that it was inadequate since my insurance renewal date on my insurance (I have a bundle policy with other insurance) was in 28 days, they said that I need to secure an insurance renewal, there must be at least 30 days of coverage in effect.
Back to my insurance carrier I went and secured the renewal, uploaded and was then advised that the date of the insurance certificate needed to be changed because the delivery/pick up date had changed. I tried to advise them it was covered but they wanted the coverage for at least 24 hours prior to pick up date. Meanwhile if they just changed the pickup date as they said they did initially this would not have been an issue. So frustrated that I canceled the purchase and here we are one week later and they are still holding the entire purchase amount and have not refunded it. Horrible experience!!!

This is the second vehicle we have bought from you guys. This was by far the worst experience. The people running the location where I picked up the truck didn’t have a clue what they were doing. Damage was found on the windshield that was not in the description of truck. They saw it and agreed and then came back and said they would not cover it cause they already put super glue on it.

We had a good experience with Carvana. Mostly smooth purchasing process. The only hiccup was only one of the key fobs was working at car drop off. I had to go to the Ford dealership and get this taken care of on my own time. We received push back on getting this expense covered by SilverRock despite being within the 7 day window. It's frustrating to not receive the full product you purchased, as the description said 2 keys, and use my own time to get this rectified.

Overall the experience was good. I appreciated the customer service when calling on the phone.

If I could leave no stars I would! Horrible. Worst experience ever. NOT SAFELY INSPECTED VEHICLES. It's convenient yes but to buy a car and have it delivered to you and not even 5 minutes into the drive and the check engine light turns on, starts misfiring so already first day had to take car to the shop. Stayed there 3-4days! I contacted Carvana. All they said was to traded it back in or get my money back so it seems like they don't care too much if the cars are safely inspected or not and just again today, I had to leave my car at the Shop once again, not even seven days until my test driving.
Another problem got found. Ball joints were going bad, Rotors were Horrible and all that might not be covered. I'm Not too happy if I have to pay out-of-pocket for some Work that needs to be done that I did not cause its was delivered to me last Thursday. I've had the car only two days out of the 7 day period. It's been in the shop the remaining days, These cars are supposedly inspected And passed inspection and I get no help from the advocates. A lot of miscommunication as well! Damage found on my car and asked for price reduction since I was told we could and they denied it!

Whoever is inspecting the vehicle and sending it off as everything has passed needs to have knowledge of how vehicles work. I shouldn’t be getting a vehicle paying 30,000 with clear signs there should be something fixed before putting it up for sell or giving it to a customer after the purchase. Y'all need to do a better job on inspecting the vehicles. Shouldn’t have happened with 2 cars back to back. It show y'all do 150pt inspections. Y'all need to stay true to that and actually inspect the vehicles. It’s what y'all get paid to do so do y’all’s job correctly.

I bought the car Friday the 11th of April, 30 minutes into driving home from picking up my car in the Norfolk location I was pulled over and told my front left light was out. Then went to the garage the next day Saturday and found out the whole assembly had to be take out 1700 it would cost and a few other things that needed repairs as well. Needless to say your company gave me a 7 day return policy yet my car was in the shop the day after I bought it and I wasn't able to pick it up until the 7th day at 4:30pm so I think that was very unethical due to this was Carvana's fault.
My car was in the shop and I only was able to drive my car 4 hours and that was the day I bought the car so I'm very unhappy. After the repairs I took my car the same day to the car wash to come out the car wash and water spill all over my lap from my visor in my driver's seat.

I purchased my Alfa Romeo Giulia from Carvana. Overall, I'm satisfied with the experience. Mostly because I love the car. Carvana is literally just a dealer that you have no real contact with, which means if things aren't quite right, good luck getting them resolved.
1. Car arrived with a hood that wouldn't latch after opening. It ended up being a simple fix I did myself. WD40 to loosen the latches and a minor alignment adjustment. This should not have made it through inspection.
2. I took the car to the dealer (Alfa Romeo Merriam KS) and they identified all 4 brake rotors as needing to be replaced (heavily grooved). The front pads were at 5mm, which meets Carvana's inspection, but the rear pads were 0mm and 1mm, which does not. After dealing with them about the hood, I've just been sorting this out myself. It's not going to be cheap though. A full set of rotors and pads are ~$3000 for this Alfa.
3. Carvana has ALWAYS missed the first appointment. Once for my purchase. Once for my sale of my existing car. I've heard from others that this happened with them as well.
Recommendations
1. Refuse the car if you don't like the condition for any reason.2. Take the car to a licensed mechanic or dealer to get it inspected within your 7 day return window. If anything comes up, you can return it if they won't make good on it.
3. Do your research and be prepared to put some money into a used car. This is with any service, dealer, or individual sale.

I was notified 20 minutes before my appointment that my car would not be ready on time. Then when I got there an hour later it still wasn’t ready. You could tell someone rushed through a cleaning real quick one they put it up in the tower. I wish there had been a better picture of the bubbled rear window tint that will need to be replaced or taken off since it is as if you are looking through water every time you look behind you. Also picture of key fob showed a nice one but the other fob is solid black where all of the writing has wore off (again no picture of this).
When I got it home to use the fob with visible symbols on it that was dead so I had to replace the battery for it to even unlock. Car also does not have a spot for a front license plate that is required in my state so I guess I’ll figure that out. I would have thought a temp tag should have gone up there too. Lots of little disappointments that could have probably could have been avoided with a little more attention to detail.

Buying from Carvana is not worth the convenience of shopping from home. The first vehicle we purchased was delivered dead on arrival and with far more damage than was described. After being sent back to repair what ever was wrong with it, our re-delivery date kept getting pushed back which caused an inconvenience because we both have to take the day off to sign when it arrives. That purchase was ultimately cancelled and another vehicle was purchased. Then the nightmare with that one began. We requested that the tag from the vehicle we traded in be assigned to the vehicle we purchased.
We live in Florida so I know it is permitted. The tag from the Kia was a specialty tag and sequential to the tag on our other vehicle so we wanted to keep it. Surprise, a new tag was assigned and now I have to deal with the DMV. Carvana is a crap shoot, you may get lucky but more than likely the hassle and run around won't be worth it. I won't make the same mistake again and suggest every else avoid them as well.

They don't take it off the truck until you sign. Immediately I was missing a charger (it's a Tesla and it was in the photos). They tried to tell me to deal with warranty. I am still trying to resolve this. FURTHERMORE, a trim piece for whatever reason was incorrect and I was PROMISED this would be resolved if I kept the car. Upon Tesla installing the part, they showed where bodywork was done incorrectly and I have chipping clear coat. Carvana will not repair it. Both Tesla and the Tesla-approved local body shop believe Carvana did some repairs before sale, as they even pulled some masking tape off the car.
I would have returned it, but I was promised this would be fixed and the first appointment Tesla had was just outside of the return window. I trusted Tamara when she promised they would fix this. They just pass it off to "warranty" (also their company), who tells you to get bent. Don't trust them. They won't drive you happy. They are selling my trade at a $10K markup, and can't even get this fixed at a shop of their choice. I have tried to work with them but apparently lawyers and telling this tale to my 300K social media followers is what they would prefer. Beyond disappointed.

I previously put a claim they Silver Rock and the mechanic that came out told me it was all normal. What the heck is normal about the car idling erratically and losing power.

They could not fix it because don’t have a mechanic. I drove 4 1/2 hours to pick this vehicle up so that means I had to drive the vehicle 4 1/2 hours back with no tail light.
They said the warranty department could take care of it for me but when I called them, they said I would have to make a complaint through the app. The closest place to me to Take care of this issue was over three hours away. This whole process has been an inconvenience. I’ve had to spend more money in this vehicle when purchasing it. Everything should’ve been taken care of within a two weeks of notice of me purchasing. This whole process has been an inconvenience. I will not be purchasing another vehicle through Carvana again. I recommend saving yourself time and a headache by going elsewhere.

My entire experience was great! The online viewing, financing to pick up of my car, all went well. I'd definitely recommend Carvana to a friend and use them again if I have to. My seven days trial made was also great. While driving my Nissan Rogue around for those seven days I felt assuredly if I didn't like the car I'd just return it. But it all worked out.

Everything was great and very easy. The only thing I'd say if I had to pick things apart was the detailing of the car was a bit weak. There were crumbs in the cupholder (ew) and it was missing an air valve cover on a tire. The windshield also took a ton of scrubbing with residual from an old registration. All easy fixes though. Delivery guy was awesome and the whole process very straightforward.

Frustrating Experience with CARVANA’s Military-Unfriendly Policy. I’ve spent the last two weeks trying to purchase a vehicle through CARVANA, and it’s been nothing but frustration and wasted time. As an Active Duty military member temporarily stationed in Mississippi, I went through the full ordering process—only to be told I needed a Mississippi driver’s license to proceed. I explained repeatedly that I’m only here on military orders, and that by law, I’m not required to change my license or home of record.
Despite that, CARVANA’s rigid policy insisted on a state license. I tried to cancel, but then another rep would call, saying they could work it out. That led me to start the process all over again—several times—each time with the hope that it would finally work. Meanwhile, a substantial down payment was pending the entire time. Every time I canceled, I was told it would take 3–5 business days for my refund. That money could have gone toward a local purchase with less hassle and more respect for my military status. Mississippi law only requires that I show my orders—not change my license—and yet CARVANA wouldn’t budge.
At this point, I feel like I’ve been tricked and led along just to prolong the process and tie up my money. It’s incredibly disappointing. CARVANA’s policies seem out of touch with military life, and the runaround I experienced made it clear that convenience is only a selling point when everything goes perfectly. For those serving on orders out of state—look elsewhere.

I am going to write a story. On April 26th, after much consideration, I decided on a vehicle and started the process to purchase online. I chose my vehicle and was asked to upload documents after reviewing the financial agreement. a down payment of 1400 was required in addition to a 190-delivery fee. I started submitting docs through the portal and was asked to upload 2 years of tax return docs. I only had the most recent because I didn't work 2023. My income is nontaxable.
I contacted Carvana and tried to explain and they insisted on requiring the 2 years. I immediately asked them to cancel the order. This all happened within a span of 45 minutes. The order was cancelled, and I moved onto other options of purchasing a vehicle online. Now mind you, within the first 10 minutes of starting the financial agreement docs, Carvana had withdrew the 1400 for the down payment and 190 for the delivery fee. It is now 20 days later and counting... I have not been refunded those fees.
I contacted them today. I was told their automated system never started the refund process and they had to submit a ticket. The ticket is so that a real human being can begin my refund process. The review of the ticket and it being accepted by someone to being processing will take 24-48 hours. THEN my refund will take an additional 5-7 days. UNACCEPTABLE!!
If I had to make a car payment to Carvana and I was, let's see, add up all the time in taking, processing, and returning my refund, approximately 30 days for them to receive my car payment. Would I not be charged interest? Would there not be a penalty? Well businesses like Carvana should be handled the same way. We deserve the same interest in our payments as they would receive from ours. I AM 100% DISAPPOINTED in this WHOLE EXPERIENCE with Carvana. NOW I have to wait another week to finish buying a vehicle I HAVE been approved for because I need the down payment to complete my purchase.
For anyone considering Carvana, be aware—if your order is canceled, you may be waiting weeks for your refund, even when the cancellation happens in minutes. This experience has delayed my ability to purchase a vehicle elsewhere, and it shows how little urgency Carvana places on returning customers’ money. Disappointed isn’t a strong enough word for what I feel right now.

VIN: **. We bought a Tesla which had a power cord with adapters pictured on the Carvana site. When the car arrived, there was no wall power cord and no way for us to charge the vehicle. This was noted by the employee dropping off the car and told us Carvana would be in contact to follow up. We took possession of the vehicle on a Sunday and weren’t told until Friday that we would be provided with a credit of $210 for purchasing a new wall power cord. This amount however does NOT cover the cost of a Tesla power cord and adapters.
We found a similar bag and wall cord for $325 but Carvana is refusing to provide us with a power cord to charge the vehicle and not willing to give us the appropriate amount to purchase the power cord/charger that was pictured in the for sale add. This is unacceptable that we bought a np electric vehicle that didn’t come with a charging cord and now we’re not being reimbursed for the appropriate amount.

The car buying process was easy, but that was the end of “easy” with Carvana. First our car was delayed, the day it was supposed to be delivered. We received no warning till the day of and we had already had to schedule work off that day. Furthermore, the car was then delayed a whole week. We finally got the car and the next day noticed a reflector was broken on the rear bumper and the key fob was completely dead (we bought a new battery the day of receiving the car as well).
I then had to schedule through silver rock to get a new fob, your customer service is the least useful group I’ve had to deal with. Multiple conversations with queued prompts that led to frustrating conversations. I was being quoted 350$ for a new fob and your customer service basically told me to “work with the dealer to see what they could do”, I’ve had it less than a week, you should have been jumping through hoops to make sure I was satisfied and Carvana did not. I finally got a hold of silver rock folks and they waived it for me in the end. I shouldn’t have had to do all that. Overall, I like my car, but I’m never buying from Carvana again. Terrible customer service and terrible awareness throughout the whole process.

The 150 point inspection: my brakes were squeaking on day 1, vehicle had significantly more chipped paint (appeared to be fresh..maybe during transportation?) that was not pictured in the photos, + back taillight had moisture leaking into the inside of the light. Took the vehicle to one of their in-network mechanics + they said the rotors were unsafe to drive on + needed to be replaced. They said standard practice was to replace the brake pads too so they correctly fit on rotors. Carvana agreed to pay for the rotors + taillight, but not the brake pads.
Registration: I communicated to Carvana that I wanted to keep my previous plates+the delivery guy handed them to me before taking off. Was given a window of time for registration to be completed, but was given no notice about when I could put my plates on. Called Carvana, the rep said they didn’t note I wanted to keep my old plates, so issued me new plates, but they were never delivered. Tracking number said it was delivered but only showed a zip code…my correct address was on file but they sent it “somewhere.” I asked what could be done + they said they could send me a duplicate set. WHY would I want duplicate plates? Where did the first ones go? And WHO has those?
Then she said I could go to the DMV to try to register my new vehicle under my old plates….1) Carvana already charged me for new plates, 2) how was I supposed to communicate this mess of a situation that CARVANA caused, 3) I don’t want some rando having the same plate number as me that would be traced back to ME..what a MESS. Best she could do was escalate to the resolution department.
Carvana as a company did a terrible job. Luckily I did my research + looked at the Carfax report, which showed the previous owner took really good care of the vehicle. That was my saving grace. I also appreciated how much Carvana offered for my previous vehicle. But in summary: their crew did a bad job on the brakes (one of the few things they needed to fix before selling me the vehicle), chipped the paint in several areas when transporting the vehicle, missed the cracked taillight, + totally screwed me over with the registration (I still have no plates+ no resolution).

I feel deceived at the end of what seemed like a transparent process. There were chips on the windshield cleverly concealed by staff who prepared my car for delivery. I checked the vehicle but it didn't occur to me to remove the stickers. I asked the driver, "Are there any steps that I am missing in checking the vehicle?" and he could have suggested to take off the stickers but they obviously were concealing imperfections. I researched this tactic and saw that this a common practice by Carvana. In fact, many customers have attempted to sue and in vain were only able to submit complaints to the Better Business Bureau.
After talking to Carvana both via chat and by phone, I was told that my only recourse was to return the car and get a new one since I was still within the 7 day return policy. Carvana could have remedied this deceptive practice by fixing the cost of the chipped glass that happened on their watch but they decided to deceive their customers despite promising the contrary.

At delivery we let the rep know about 3 dents, a nasty interior spray painted wheels and several windshield chips, I should have walked away in a bund and needed to get a car for one that was totaled. He said customer service handles any undocumented damage. I thought that meant someone would reach out. 4 days go by nothing, paid to have car detailed. Called customer service.
They state only 3 days left to take care of this. He gave me authorized repair location almost an hour away. Contacted them. They said they would need the car for at least 3 days. We bought because we needed a car, not sitting in a service facility. Our 1st carrot carvana also had damage but we were able to take to a local body shop who ordered thr parts and fixed in one day.

The process itself was actually ok, but the truck showed up with a large dent on the rear passenger side that was not disclosed in the sales process. I accepted the vehicle based on an assumption and driver confirmation, that Carvana would make this right as it was clearly an oversight based on how detailed they were with any other imperfections the truck had. Keep in mind this is a 2024, basically new $66k vehicle, with barely over 1000 miles on it. BUYER BEWARE - they do not fully disclose issues and when it arrives you roll the dice if they will fix it, which in my case they denied with absolutely no justification. They also wait to deny your claim until your 7 day return policy has expired. I will not consider Carvana for any further purchases. If this was not intentional, they would make it right, which tells me all I need to know about this company.

This was my second vehicle purchase from Carvana. My first purchase was awesome; this time not so much. I do like the car I purchased, but it was not exactly what I expected. Firstly, there was significant cosmetic damage that was not disclosed prior to purchase. Secondly, I have had this car for less than a week, and I just spent $1300 repairing it. I attempted to file a claim with Carvana/SilverRock, but they claimed the repairs necessary would be covered by the Subaru powertrain warranty. Because the repairs were required due to prior accident/collision repair (the collision history was listed on Carfax) Subaru would not cover any of the repairs under warranty.
I know things happen, but there was obvious audible noise coming from front tire area that should have been addressed prior to listing this vehicle for sale. While I acknowledge that I likely could have refused the vehicle during my 7 day window, I feel like that is a flimsy excuse for failing to fully document glaring cosmetic flaws, as well as selling a two year old vehicle with 4 bad tires and a faulty wheel bearing.

As soon as I accelerate, car starts cutting out. I take it to a local national branded shop that is within their network. They tell me that it needs a new intake manifold. I go through the process with their warranty company. Repair is completed at no cost to me. I bring the car home, after 8 days in the shop. Now it is leaking oil all over my driveway and garage. I take the car back to same repair facility. I tell them it still is cutting out, feels like it won't shift from first to second gear. They keep the car for 2 more days. I pick it up now the 7 day return (and $0 copay period) has expired. They tell me I have a $100 copay.
The Carvana inspection crew did not replace crush washer on drain plug. They simply put a second one on, so once oil got warm, started leaking. Had the car another week. Still was not shifting right. I took it into a specifically transmission shop (now I am out of network) they tell me I was right, it needs a new transmission. They have had the car now 9 days. Today I received a call, warranty company approved the repair with a $350 copay. Today is Wednesday, I was told that the transmission should be in on Monday, at latest I get car back next Thursday.

Complete Disaster – Incompetent, Unprofessional, and Costly Mistake by Carvana. I’ve had one of the worst car-buying experiences of my life with Carvana. What was marketed as a seamless and modern way to buy a car turned into over three months of stress, financial loss, and sheer incompetence. After purchasing a vehicle, I was left completely in the dark regarding the registration process. I couldn’t legally drive the car for over 90 days, during which I received little to no communication, only empty reassurances from different representatives who clearly had no grasp on my situation. The delays cost me lost income, as I depend on having a vehicle for work. Carvana’s lack of professionalism and urgency has real consequences for their customers, and they clearly don’t care.
And just when I thought the ordeal was coming to an end — they finally sent the registration, but somehow managed to register my vehicle as a semi-truck/trailer. Yes, you read that right. A standard passenger vehicle was registered as a commercial truck. This kind of mistake is not only unbelievable but downright negligent. It’s insulting to go through months of delay, only to be handed a registration that makes the vehicle unusable again.
Carvana has completely failed to deliver on even the most basic responsibilities of a car dealer. Their processes are broken, their customer service is disorganized, and their mistakes have directly cost me time, money, and peace of mind. I strongly urge anyone considering Carvana to think twice. This company is not ready to handle something as important as your transportation needs.

The part is on backorder until May 23 and the vehicle will sit until it is repaired. Totally unacceptable.

I had seen the commercials, but I never knew anyone that actually used Carvana. At first I was a little hesitant because I was not sure of how the process went. However, after looking through their inventory and finding a car that I wanted, the process was very smooth and efficient. I don’t have the best of credit right now, but Carvana was able to get me approved for thousands of vehicles, most of which are newer used vehicles with lower mileage. After I found the car that I wanted, I was able to get through the paperwork with ease and picked up my car from a local Carvana location two days after approval. They give you a seven day exchange or money back guarantee period which is a plus. During that period I was able to drive the car and also see how it would fit into my life. I was not satisfied with the car after test driving it and wanted to make a switch.
Switching vehicles was just as easy, if not easier, then going through the purchase process the first time. During the exchange, I was able to find a newer year vehicle with even less miles on it. The vehicle was practically brand new. Now I have a vehicle that I love. When it comes to cars, get the gap insurance (something I wish I knew a few cars ago) and the extended warranty. After seeing how easy the process was, my mom also bought a car from them. Overall, if you are looking for a used car with guarantee behind the name, I would recommend Carvana because with them you can shop with confidence.

I was super excited getting the vehicle I’ve been wanting for a while now. The purchase process was great. I was satisfied with the amount of the vehicle and everything. Unfortunately on day 7 after getting the vehicle, was when I started having issues with the vehicle, because the vehicle is considered luxury. Which means pricier. I anticipated on having maintenance issues down the line, but not within 7 days. That’s crazy! Unfortunately, I wasn’t in a position at the time to do a diagnostic test at the dealership (which was $300) might I add. So I drove about an hour away to another dealership that was more my price range just to hear that the vehicle needs a new battery and some electrical work done. Another unfortunate thing is the warranty expired before I purchased the vehicle. So I’m having to pay everything out of pocket and I haven’t even had the vehicle two weeks yet… Smh.

Purchased a car from Carvana in March of 2025. Took delivery and drove home. Upon further inspection I noticed that one of the tires had a 3-inch hole on the sidewall and a large gash and dent in the rim, damage to the front fender as well as a damaged hood latch. Issues that Carvana missed during pre-sale inspection or maybe worse just simply ignored. The detail job they did was pretty crappy too and the car smelled like cigarettes and cheap air freshener. Figured it wouldn't be a big deal to reach out and get at least a new tire due to the clear (according to their customer service team and Firestone) safety issue. Wasn't as concerned about the latch or the rim but tires are $500 and this one was not due to normal wear.
The people there were very nice and advised that I call the insurance company that they contract with Silver Rock. They were nice as well but that's where the positive experience ended. I have now had the case opened and closed three times and each time with this is not covered from both Silver Rock and finally today also from Carvana. Had the tire blown out and caused an accident this would have been a serious lawsuit given that Carvana was negligent in their inspection and someone could easily have been hurt.
The right thing to do would have been to simply replace the tire. Instead, I spent at least 10 phone calls and several hours on the phone being reassured they would take care of it. Not once did either company keep me updated. Every time I had to follow up. In the end both Carvana and Silver Rock are just like many other big businesses. Luckily it is a minor issue as the rest of the car is in good shape. As a consumer I feel like they really missed the boat on customer service. In the end I am out about $1,000 but the experience has left a bad taste in my mouth. With all the buying options I would not use Carvana again. Had this been a more significant issue I feel like the results would have been the same.

Lesson learned. After spending $1,200 for a vehicle advertised to be under manufacturer warranty to be shipped and delivered, it lasted three days before failing to start. Actually, a claim was submitted ON DELIEVER DAY with a faulty radio. This means Carvana took my money to ship and deliver a vehicle they knew was fault. My small child and I were left stranded in the parking lot needing a jump. I took it to the SilverRock approved repair shop for a diagnostic. SilverRock then said it needed to go to the Jeep dealership for any diagnostics or repairs since it is still under warranty. The dealership then found multiple irreparable damages. I'm definitely feeling scammed. Please do better by your customers, especially when taking a risk in this economy.

Carvana's 150 point inspection should be taken with a grain of salt. You wouldn't expect a 2016 Equinox with less than 39K miles (at purchase) to have any major issues. The problem starting when during a March warm spell my wife informed me that the AC didn't work. No big deal so I thought, since I'm a vehicle tech for a government agency, I'll check it out.
Freon low? It wouldn't take a charge, nor was I able to command the AC compressor to come on through my scan tool. Found AC compressor fuse blown. Replaced fuse blown. Blows again. Serious problem. On inspection when I pulled the vehicle into my personal shop that there was a rats nest of cobbled wiring that feeds (1) the CV clutch on the compressor, (2) AC freon pressure switch, (3) AC compressor clutch, (4) alternator field wiring that is crucial to make sure the alternator gets the proper feedback to charge the battery, (5) broken connector to the CKP (crankshaft position sensor) and (6) the fan wiring had been spliced with a aftermarket replacement connector and someone had used wire nuts to make the connections.
The reason behind the mess is only a guess? Chewed on by an animal kicked up road debris who knows. Numbers 1-5 connectors had been replaced, but instead of being properly soldered and heat-shrink protection, the wiring was just twisted together and taped with non-automotive electrically tape not made for the automotive environment. Luckily the wire colors matched the terminal pins correctly, but that's the only good thing. Upon removing that section of harness to do the repairs on the topside I had to disconnect the starter solenoid wire and found the starter was loose!! It was held in by one bolt on the bottom. The top bolt was missing!
Found the AC compressor clutch itself is shorted. I measured less than half an ohm which is basically a dead short. I was able to correctly repair the wiring back to its original configuration. I had to replace the crank sensor connector since it was broken and would not lock into the tab on the sensor itself. Thankfully my local Pick and Pull had the connector I needed, plus a bolt for the starter that was missing and the factory correct fan wiring.
Even though we bought the vehicle in January after my wife's 2015 Equinox was t-boned when a girl blew through a stop sign, the inspection should have caught this and had it repaired before the vehicle was offered for sale. My best guess is that they knew this and chose to ignore it. Buyer beware. Do your due diligence and inspect everything that you can and make sure everything works. Other than that, so far, no other issues. I have uploaded all relevant pictures, the last pic shows how the wiring should look, as factory.

I've been on this earth for 43 years, purchased 13 cars and 7 motorcycles. Last week I decided to try Carvana for the first time and it was hands down the worst car buying experience I've ever had. They shipped a car to me that had an obvious problem, it was clear to me that the vehicle had not been inspected thoroughly before it was sold to me. After opening up a complaint they told me I needed to take it to a mechanic in their network so they could work with their partner "Silverrock Insurance".
After scheduling time in my day to find a mechanic and then scheduling time a different day to drive the car to the mechanic, I received a call the same day informing me that "Silverrock" would not cover the car and that it needed to be taken in to a dealership. After extensive chats with multiple customer service agents to try to find out what this process would be like I started calling dealerships to see who would work with this silverrock insurance. I could not get in touch with anyone anywhere and my 7 day return window is running out. I went back to customer service and they were just zero help all around. One rep even reprimanded me for asking too many questions at once..
All in all I wasted 2 full days of my time testing this car and running it around trying to fix it only to have Carvana's insurance company refuse to pay the mechanic $800 to fix it and instead have me bring it to a dealership to wait god knows how long for it to be fixed, which I refused and instead opted to return the car. Once I did I was back on with Carvana customer service who were again supremely unhelpful. The only thing I asked of them this time is that when their tech came to pick up the car that they please text me instead of call since I'm frequently on the phone for work. They refused.
After all of the hassle this garbage company put me through they refused even the most minor thing they could possible do to help me out. I would not buy from them again. This is a garbage company, with garbage partners and garbage customer service. I will recommend loudly that people steer clear of this company until my dying breath.

Overall: Pros: Price transparency. Ease of trade in. Ease of buying a car. Cons: Overpriced for local market value. No state inspection/emissions if required by your state. Possible delays aren't relayed until day of delivery. Ordering Process: Created an account. Researched available cars and compared price/delivery fees (all upfront pricing). Found exact car needed along with Car Fax. Pre-approved financing available and quick verification process. Full loan details and fees laid out before order is placed
Order Placed Process: Upload required documents such as insurance, driver's license, registration info. Insurance required before delivery can be confirmed…weird rule. Insurance update required within 24hrs, but mine was delayed a day. Missed initial delivery date due to insurance going into effect the following week (Not a Carvana issue). Online Notary was about 10 minutes for wait and the verification process. After all documents were signed and approved delivery was confirmed
Delivery Process: Multiple confirmations that delivery was all set and car was at nearby facility. Morning of delivery was told via call, text, and email that due to a delay it would be scheduled for the following Monday…no details except that if there are further delays we will let you know. Monday arrived and driver called when they were leaving Carvana facility…arrived between 5-8pm window at about 6:45pm. Transfer process was quick….signed an odometer update paper and registration, test drove new car while driver loaded trade in, got back and that was it

While I will say, my purchase was approved within a couple of days, much faster than a traditional dealership, the experience has not been the simple, seamless one they market. To start, there was a lot of back-and-forth between Carvana and my insurance company (Carvana sending incorrect or incomplete documents to my insurance, etc., resulting in me having to make several phone calls to one business or another over a period of hours to ensure everything was properly communicated).
Finally, the day of delivery arrived. The gentleman was very professional, he called me ahead of time and handled all the paperwork (although I couldn't figure out why he didn't know if we were transferring my plates, since I had already been over that with customer service). Shortly after he left, I hopped in my new car to take it for a wash (since it showed up detailed on the inside but filthy on the outside, complete with some kind of nail polish-like markings on the rear window), and I immediately noticed something was not right.
To start, the "Oil Change Required" alert came on, followed by the "Washer Fluid Low" alert. These items should be a no-brainer if Carvana truly does a 150-point inspection and oil change prior to delivery. Then I got on the road. There was a thumping noise coming from the driver's side, the brake pedal shuddered with each stop, there was a scraping sound when turning that I knew right away was bad brakes, not to mention the completely blown speaker.
I took it to my mechanic for a full diagnosis, which I paid for out of pocket because he is not a Carvana mechanic, but obviously, I wanted someone I trust to check it out. His findings, on top of the blown speaker and lack of washer fluid, included: Bad front and rear brakes, bad struts, a nail in one tire, an oil leak around the transmission, and to top it off, window tint that is too dark to pass my state's inspection.
Then I took it to a Carvana-approved mechanic who assessed and priced everything mechanical with Silver Rock. I then had to wait for parts to come in, so my appointment would not be until my 7th day of having the car (when I should be able to have it pass state inspection by then). While I wait for that to be completed, I had to contact Silver Rock directly to find out what I need to do about the blown speaker (which they said SHOULD be approved to be fixed -- after spending tens of thousands of dollars, I should hope so, I should at least be able to listen to a podcast while I drive) and the window tint.
They informed me that I will need to take it to have the speaker repair priced and approved, which will mean I then have to take it back a separate time to be fixed, and I will have to have THEM call Silver Rock to let them know the window tint will not pass inspection (because my word and my mechanic's word is apparently not enough), at which point I will need to set up an appointment with the glass company to have THAT remedied, and THEN I can hopefully pass inspection, meaning I will either be overdue for inspection on my new car, or I will have to pay for a Rejected sticker and then, after everything is remedied, pay for a passing sticker.
I have had to spend a lot of time, energy, and aggravation to fix all of these issues that should not have been present had Carvana actually done their due diligence as they claim they do. This experience has been wildly frustrating and disappointing, and nothing like what Carvana touts itself to be. I would never recommend any friend or family member to Carvana after this.
