    Never again. Purchased a car for our daughter and ended up having to put another $2000 into it due to immediate maintenance issues. After the 7 day trial period one of the tires got a nail in it so we took it to the store and they indicated that all 4 tires were bald and the spare was even bad. Submitted a claim to their third party (Silverrock) who is useless and will not approve anything. Spent hours on the phone which ended up being a waste of time.

    Carvana was not helpful at that point either. We decided to take it to a mechanic shop because if the tires were bad what else was wrong with it? The mechanic shop came back with a whole list of issues, but the most concerning was there was too much engine oil, low coolant, and the transmission fluid had never been replaced. How can they claim they conduct a multi point inspection when it has dangerous fluid levels. Silverrock denied these claims as well. Lesson learned to never trust what a company advertises. If you are going to buy a car from them make sure you pay to have it inspected yourself within the first 7 days.

    The car is overpriced, the trade in was criminally underpriced, and the terms for credit were soul breaking. That said I can see that the trade off is to make the process of buying a car so easy and stress free that most people would accept all the above drawbacks. I was one of them until the car was delivered dirty. The center console was sticky and you can could still see the brown stains of a spill. The inside appeared to have been wiped down with a damp rag at best. Streaks were so bad it affected visibility. It’s clear to me that Carvana's model is to absolutely take advantage of people’s disdain of dealing with dealerships. But no decent dealership would have ever looked a customer in the eyes and delivered a car like that.

    Everything about my initial buying experience was top-notch. The original person to help me was a younger guy named Ronan. His service and attitude was exemplary. He got me into a Nissan Juke. And since I am only one human, I could not drive the Juke home as well as my personal Jeep, which I was not trading in. I asked him if it would be OK to leave the Jeep there until I could get a friend to come with me to get them both back to my residence. He said that would be fine. He instructed me where to park it to keep it out of the way, and off I went. I told him it would be a few days. Potentially even the weekend before I could get assistance. He said that should be fine.

    After only a couple of days it became obvious I was not going to be keeping the Nissan. There were several issues which were dealbreakers. So I picked out an alternate vehicle to swap. On Thursday afternoon, I was actually on standby for my job, retrieving donated organs and transporting them to the hospital where they can be transplanted into recipients. I came by in the Carvana vehicle and retrieved my work badge from the jeep. This was Thursday late afternoon or evening. As I was getting items out of my jeep, I saw a Carvana employee. She gave me a funny look and I explained to her that it was my personal vehicle, I needed my work badge out of it, but it would be moved in the next few days. She said That would be perfectly fine.

    Saturday I arrived for my appointment to swap one Carvana vehicle for the other. I met with a different advocate. He was also polite and professional. The new car came down and everything was fine. Until I noticed my jeep was no longer in the place where I parked it. Within just a few moments I had located Ronan, and inquired. He said he would find out where it had been moved. Another employee brought out a manager who was immediately rude, condescending, and demeaning. He told me my jeep had been towed.

    When I told him I had been instructed where to put it and informed it would be acceptable to leave it there until the weekend he literally laughed at me. Gave me the number of the tow service. Got into a debate with me on the semantic difference between “a couple of days“ and “a few days“ as if the difference between those justified him towing a car that had been given permission to stay there. His attitude (and statement) was “nothing you can do about it, go ahead and try to sue us.“

    I’ve never experienced an individual in a management position with such a poor attitude and such abysmal customer service skills in my life outside the realm of maybe fast food. This man obviously does not care one bit about the reputation of Carvana as a brand. I have not had a chance to address this issue. I had to scramble to get my car out of impound as it was the weekend and would have cost me even more money in storage fees if I didn’t retrieve it immediately and had to wait until Monday to get it out. Since then I’ve been working multiple 24 hour shifts, we’ve had multiple donors, and I’ve literally been running organs and surgical teams all over multiple states. Rest shared however, that I will be contacting the GM of this specific location. Corporate to complain, and making a giant scene on every social media platform available to me.

    While everything else about the Carvana experience was convenient and pleasant and convinced me not to ever go to an actual dealership ever again… The interactions with this specific manager was legitimately one of the worst I’ve ever had. He shouldn’t be managing a fast food joint, much less a car sales establishment. He is absolutely liability to your brand reputation.

    I purchased a car through Carvana that initially seemed like a good deal. The car looked nice, had low mileage and came at a good price. When the car arrived everything seemed in working order with only some minor issues, some visible rust, but not too bad and the car smelled funny. I made plans to have the car inspected at the dealership before my return period ended.

    BEWARE: It wasn't made clear to me that your return period starts the day you get your car and not the day after. The dealership was only able to get me in on the last day of my return period. They said that there was a large amount of rust and rodent damage under the car where we couldn't see initially. One of the belts was also dry rotted away. This news came to us too late to return the car so now we are stuck with it and hope the warranty that came with the car is good. Beware with this company. They don't give you the car's whole story before you sign the dotted line and it causes problems like this!

    Carvana located in Tucson AZ sold me a car. The day it was scheduled for delivery I received a text saying there was a "battery issue" and rescheduled the delivery. Since they dropped it off, the car had a cranking issue where it does not crank. I've called them on several occasions and they said I did not have a warranty. After finding the warranty and verifying I paid $1,300.00 for the extra warranty they now say I am past my warranty date. Even though it says 3/1/2025 on the contract. They sold a disabled vet a junk car then lied and lied to keep from having to fix the car. Do not buy vehicles from Carvana. They did not do the 150 point inspection and can not provide it to me. Replaced the battery and not the mechanical issues. Now I'm paying for a car I can't drive and they won't take responsibility for selling me a lemon. Customer service lies and is rude. Don't be stuck in a position like me. Do yourself a favor and don't buy from them.

    I recently bought a 2023 Hyundai Elantra and was extremely happy with the whole process. Fast forward just one week. My wife wanted a new vehicle and I recommended using Carvana again. So we ordered a 2023 Honda Odyssey with the assumption we were going to get the vehicle on June 27th, 2024. On Tuesday, June 25th, I received a phone call stating that it was less than a month that I ordered my Elantra, that I was required to pay my first month's payment a whole month early or I would not get the approval for the Honda Odyssey.

    To say the least I was not happy about this ridiculous policy! I made the payment begrudgingly and thought this was over. Oh was I wrong! I looked on the app and I was tasked that Carvana would initiate a three way call to verify payment. I never received the call and my order for the Honda Odyssey was cancelled! I looked and had to do the whole order all over again and the new delivery date is set for Saturday June 29, 2024. I spoke to several reps since then and all of them admitted that Carvana messed up but there was no way for me to get the vehicle on the original scheduled delivery date! I am severely frustrated with this second purchase and will now doubt if I say anything great about Carvana from here on out!

    The Carvana’s communication system is terrible. The AI Sebastian guy is very irresponsible and not kind. The customer service is not communicative about the car attendants where it was being stored. Why there are no actual person can help our needs to check the condition of the car and the belongings? We asked Customer service person to see if there is any adapter for to change at home come with the Tesla, but they not sure about it so we had to purchase it at local Tesla. And we requested to charge Tesla up to 80% when we are picking up from over 110 degrees Tempe, AZ, because we are driving back to over 100 miles to Tucson’s home, but the attendant said it was charged to 50% when we got there because the battery was only 5% and it’s been charging since the morning with level two charging since Tesla doesn’t let super charging until the ownership has transferred.

    So we sit and waited at Carvana extra hours to go up to 60%. But it was not enough to reach to Tucson in the super heat so my husband had to stop at a city in between to charge another extra hour. Carvana could damage Tesla’ battery letting drain the battery to that low. It might, but it’s charging ok so far. The battery charging adapter came with the Tesla so we didn’t need, but when we went to Tucson Tesla to return the place was already closed. We had to go to Tesla the next morning again to return the charger adapter. Why Carvana can’t provide just a little kindness service?

    I struggled to decide between 1 and 2 stars. I like the car but the experience purchasing this was terrible. 1. I received the car with the following issues: no front license mount (legally required in the state of Virginia); no emergency key in the FOB; a very leaky front driver's side tire which I had to put air in every 2 days (which appears to be known due to a fix a flat kit included but passed the inspection?); and was not including the remote start which was listed in the listing as being included.

    2. 2 of the 3 "real-life humans" I spoke with were unable to assist at all. The one exception (and the reason I gave this two stars rather than one) was Samantha who got the remote start taken care of (by offering a refund for that cost) and instructed me on how to take care of the rest. 3. I went to a Silverrock approved facility and am still waiting for the issues to be taken care of. While I like the car. The missing parts and fault tire has led me to be unable to actually drive my vehicle for the first week I owned it. This caused me to have to find alternative transportation while I wait for the car I paid for. The only reason I didn't return it is, that I did get an inspection and was told that it was a good car.

    Today is day 14 since my purchase was finalized - paid in full by me from my bank. The car delivery required several steps for verification that were not immediately clear upon initial purchase. In addition the car delivery was cancelled last minute because of an email sent at around 10 am the day before pickup that was not immediately answered. Order cancelled around 12p that same day, just 2 hours later. After many more emails, texts and calls over the ensuing days, on the day of pickup (five days later, 10 days after finalization of payment and insurance on the vehicle, also being paid while my car sits in their fancy display in Long Island), another call and text requesting an update to the insurance card came through.

    I was able to contact my agent and get the update sorted and around 3pm another verification (about 5 that day) came through saying the vehicle was ready for pickup. 2.5 hours in traffic and and hour and a half on the phone with the people at Carvana (this particular operator from Arizona reassuring me that everything was set and we would be able to pickup the car despite being late to appointment) - the car disappeared from the queue as it was supposedly cancelled. That glitch prevented them from giving me my car and I am still waiting for information. 5 hours of driving endless emails and phone calls. I have been paying for insurance and they have my money for the past two weeks. There is no resolution. The order was cancelled. Somehow, someway - and no answer.

    Purchased a vehicle from Carvana and everything went fairly smooth. Make sure you look the car over before you sign or accept anything which is where I messed up. Carvana was an hour late and I was in a hurry, noticed the back window wasn't attached to the vehicle and the vehicle had previously been in a wreck which Carvana did not show in their vehicle profile/pictures. Called them a few hours later on the same day but was told I accepted the vehicle in these conditions and I need to come out of pocket for the back window. Carvana was an hour late because I was told they needed to detail the vehicle yet upon arrival you could tell it was never cleaned or detailed. Just be careful when dealing with Carvana. This is my 2nd vehicle purchased and the first one is sitting in the barn with a blown motor after two years of ownership.

    Second time my car is being delayed. The estimate they have is consistently lying and you won’t know the real date until you have paid for the car. Even then, that date keeps changing while I had to rush to get the insurance and paperwork done. The tech is so bad that you can’t change from pick-up to delivery or check if it is possible without first losing the appointment date and risking to get a later date instead of sooner.

    I purchased my car from Carvana in May 2024. Which was a trying experience. They do not tell you up front all of the documents they will need, you are on a time limit to complete each process. If you do not do in the correct time from of a few minutes, the process will stop and car will be on hold. But once done did not have to submit again. This was the second attempt. The. First attempt, I cancelled because the pickup date was extended due to a check engine light that I was told would take a week to fix. The second car was picked up on time. The first problem was the stereo touch screen did not work properly. We noticed all the tires were different and later even different sizes. Within 4 days the battery had to be replaced. And now I have an oil leak.

    They do have the limited warranty which is difficult process. When battery needed replacing there were no approved shops open. For the oil leak they want to keep car for two weeks. And speaking to customer service is a joke. It’s like talking to a computer, which you do unless you ask for a person, who does nothing to help. With high finance rates you pay more than it’s worth.

    Not like any other car lot experience. WAY WORSE!!! I have bought probably 20 cars from dealerships over my lifetime and this experience by and large is worse than all of them. The car they sold me was listed with at least $3000 worth of features that upon delivery were 100% for sure not in the car. Features like heated seats, and Remote start were clearly listed on the details. These features impacted the sales price by at least $3k and after these guys took my trade are only offering to refund the money but based on the lower value of the car not with the features they claimed were on the car. The Missing features effect the value by at least $3k but even after admitting that it doesn't have these features has offered me $500 for my trouble?

    Of course there was no negotiation, they kept my trade, didn't change the price, kept my deposit and only offered to refund $500 for seriously misrepresenting the value (Bait and Switch). $500 is an insult, and they kept my trade, and my deposit ($1260.00). DO NOT BUY A CAR FROM THESE GUYS. The Value with the features listed dropped the value by $3k dollars and now I have a car loan for a car with less features than what was quoted. I don't have my trade and I'm out easily $3k in lost value and they grossly mispresented their value. I have screenshots of Chats with employees where they admitted these features were not on the car and in one employees words "This treatment was unacceptable."

    I told Carvana that I am going to take them to small claims court to recover my losses and they would rather me Sue them in small claims court and get $3k in losses plus fees, etc.... rather than pay me a fair amount that I asked for (Less than my $3k I'm out of pocket). I offered to split the $3k costs with them. 50/50 as a reasonable settlement but they preferred to not give me more than $500 even though they acknowledged multiple times that this effects the value by more than $3k, they even admitted they didn't care that they would lose customers from bad reviews. I have screenshots and chat logs all saved and can prove this 100%.

    Do not trust these guys, do not buy from these guys spread. The word they are liars, and unethical and they misrepresent and lie about their vehicles and won't back up what they sell. They admitted the features were not in the car. They admit the value missing is over $3K AND YET THEY ONLY WILL GIVE ME $500 AND tell me that's all I'm getting?

I took the car to one of SilverRock’s repair facilities listed and they said that the rotors were rusty and grooved. The rotors were on the 150 point inspection, so I was not happy that it needed fixed. It should have been good to go, but I understand things happen.

    The mechanic said I needed the two front rotors need fixed because they were bad. Silver Rock refused to cover this because it was “normal wear and tear” but rust that bad would not of been cause during the 5 days I had the vehicle, so I was VERY unhappy I had to pay $500 extra on my new car because I just spent 21k on it. The 150 point inspection said the rotors were fine when obviously they weren’t. God forbid the rotors fail and I can’t break and crashed my brand new car because the rotors weren’t good. Needless to say because the warranty company was so negligent and refused to help and the 150 point inspection was not accurate, I will never purchase another Carvana vehicle and I would not recommend it to people I know.

    With my car it was the rotors but who knows what else could be wrong with it. I trusted Carvana and Silver Rock to provide a safe car and that was not the case. And when I called Carvana to see if they could help, they offered to get me to exchange the car but then I would be out more money with shipping cost. All I wanted was new rotors with the warranty and instead I got a hard time. I love the car and don't want a new one. I just wanted it fixed. I recommend changing warranty companies because SilverRock ain’t it my friend.

    I recently purchased a car from Carvana. This was the absolute best car buying experience ever. My car was delivered in a timely manner. The driver was very helpful and professional upon arrival. I was able to drive it for a week before I made the final decision to keep the car. Great Service! I would highly recommend buying with Carvana!

    Car needed brakes and rotors and Silverrock only paid for rotors because the brakes were a 5 still. I paid $160 out of pocket for pads on a car that I didn't even put 100 miles on yet. This was supposed to be a good car with a 110 point inspection. Looks like this one only got a 108 point inspection. Highly unpleasant experience.

    Overall the car buying experience was a 10, it was easy, smooth and quick. The only thing I have an issue with is that the car itself had issues right off the bat. I believe the alignment is off on the car, so the car shakes at a certain speed. I’ve been to 2 mechanic shops that work with Carvana and both times they let me know it might be an all day thing so I would have to leave my car. (Which I couldn’t because I have stuff to do.) Hopefully this issue doesn’t cause any more damage to the vehicle's tires. I’m remaining hopeful that this issue gets fixed because I enjoy driving this car, and I enjoyed the car buying experience with Carvana.

    The process of purchasing and receiving the car was simple and painless. Every time I called to speak to representative, they were always polite, helpful and friendly. The only issue I have is that there were cosmetic damages to the vehicle that were not disclosed to me. Sure they may be scratches, dents, and dings, but I thought I was receiving a vehicle with only the damages that were listed on the site. After addressing my issues with Silver Rock, I was essentially told to screw off and deal with it. On a different note, Silver Rock is doing great with handling the mechanical repairs the vehicle needs. But other than cosmetic issues, the experience was fine from the very beginning to the very end.

    The vehicle we ordered had a cut in the headliner and damage to the driver seat that was not listed as an issue on the description and photos of the vehicle. The rear brakes also squeal when applying the brakes. We kept the vehicle because it was not worth the time or trouble to return it. We do however feel that Carvana left out important information pertaining to the condition of the vehicle. The paint has also been damaged (burnt) in multiple places due to excessive buffing when detailing the vehicle. Paperwork and delivery driver was great. Very quick.

    We wanted to like this process but unfortunately, the information about third-party financing was very misleading. We found a car we liked at a good price and started the order process, paid the down payment and shipping fee (5k). The website stated that they would confirm availability of the car with the partner company once we submitted all our documents. We uploaded driver's license. Then they asked us to mail them the loan check for the balance of the cost of the car (38k)... BEFORE even confirming the car was available.

    This seemed so crazy to me that I reached out and confirmed it with two different representatives. If you use third-party finance (we were pre-approved through our credit union) you have to pay for the car in advance of them confirming availability. If the car isn't available you can "choose another one" from their inventory (but the loan starts charging interest the minute the money is disbursed, and is tied to a specific car). I cannot believe this is legal!

    To whom it may concern at Carvana, I trust this communication reaches you in good health and security. I, **, am seeking your aid about my acquisition of a 2019 **. The automobile was delivered on May 10, 2024 by your representative. During my inspection of the vehicle, I observed the following: Some issues with the vehicle include mismatched tires, a missing sunshade for the sunroof, faded vents, tint removed from the front driver and passenger windows, and a missing SD card, among others.

    The representative photographed and clarified that I would need to submit tickets for both cosmetic and technical faults. This is because the representative informed me that after a vehicle is unloaded from the truck, it becomes the consumer's responsibility to file any necessary tickets. I have submitted multiple tickets and invested my funds in acquiring a diagnosis for this vehicle from a respected dealer. In addition, SilverRock, which offers no assistance, informed their mechanic that Carvana will cover the cost of all repairs.

    I urgently require my vehicle to be fixed, and it is of utmost importance that a senior member of the leadership team supports my cause rather than opposing it. Ensuring the safety of my children is of utmost importance, which is why I prioritize having a secure vehicle. The dealership has notified your warranty company that the vehicle has been equipped with defective tires, which is the cause of the loud roaring noise and the disturbance in the wheel bearings. The dealer's recommendation is to replace the tires, install a new SD card, change the cabin air filters, and install a new sun cover. According to the FAQ on your website, Carvana emphasizes their meticulous inspection process. Nevertheless, problems such as this should have been addressed prior to selling the product to the customer. Kindest regards.

    Every step of this process has been a nightmare from beginning to end. First, I was charged a $650 down payment for a car I did NOT purchase in addition to the $990 down payment for the car I did purchase. When I contacted the company to bring this to their attention I was given the runaround for days having to speak to a different customer service agent each time. It took dozens of "support" chats and calls and an immense amount of frustration to get the money refunded to me nearly two weeks later. I was also promised that if I submitted my bank statement after receiving my refund that I would be reimbursed for the overdraft fees incurred due to the error. I had ten overdraft fees at $36/each. I confirmed with a customer service agent that they had received my statement and that it was being submitted for reimbursement. I was told that I would be contacted within 72 hours to discuss the refund.

    I had to contact the company five days later after no one reached out to find out that they had mailed a refund check for $36. When I asked to speak to someone in management after all of this frustration I was denied and told "they cannot tell you any more than I have". I will be contacting the BBB, Attorneys General office as well as my personal attorney regarding filing charges in NYS courts.

An hour before the delivery time, they called me and said that the rearview mirror on the car is broken, so they can't deliver it to me. When I tried to find out from the support service what happened, they just replied that they're sorry and that they could only deliver it in 5 days. When I asked "why is the broken mirror not listed in the car's profile?" They said they don't know. When I asked "why does it take 5 days to replace the mirror?" (It's not an engine or a transmission!) They said they have a lot of work already, and they don't have time for my car's repair.

    In summary: The scheduled delivery for today wasn't fulfilled (I'll have to take another day off from work); there are damages to the car that aren't mentioned (probably they got it during the transportation of the car); and the unwillingness to solve the problem promptly (they don't care that they're at fault in this situation - they don't have time for my car!).

    We purchased a vehicle from Carvana on 04/01/2024, which is especially fitting since this whole experience has felt like one big joke. We jumped through several weeks of hoops trying to get them to accept the cashier's check from our bank. We had to recut the check three separate times due to conflicting info from the "advocates." The first one told us not to include the non-refundable shipping in the check. Then we got called back days later stating that we needed to include the non-refundable shipping in the check. So we went back to our bank to recut it, only to be told a third time by a different rep that their underwriters absolutely would not allow use to include the shipping in the check, and we were basically treated like we were crazy forever trying to include them in the check, despite being told by two separate advocates that we were supposed to do so.

    Frustrating, but whatever, we got it resolved with a lot of patience and elbow grease, picked up our car from the vending machine, two weeks later than we had originally anticipated. Hilariously, the car was filthy on the inside, after paying 1200 in non-refundable shipping. Nasty. But, I was happy to clean it out myself, understanding that this sometimes happen, and plus we had the car we had wanted and we could just put the terrible customer experience behind us.

    Oh how wrong I was. Carvana lost the cashier's check en route from the Memphis location to corporate. Our bank can't issue stop payment on the check until the end of June. Carvana is HOLDING OUR REGISTRATION HOSTAGE. I asked specifically if them losing the check was the cause of the delay. The advocates lied to my face saying that wasn't the issue. They're now telling us they "don't have customer-facing employees" who can resolve the issue. That they can have us talk to a manager but they will not release registration despite promising the payment wasn't an issue and owning that it was completely their fault that the payment was lost.

    Vehicle was very dirty, looks like was not even cleaned in the inside. The outside had a lot more scratches than mentioned on vehicle profile, a lot of touch-up paint was unnecessarily applied to the driver's side of the vehicle over scratches that easily buffed out. For paying a premium to buy from Carvana I am pretty disappointed.

    I finished all my paperwork within deadline. Friday a gentleman called me twice about my bank's check. I told him I was picking it up at 4 and sending it in as soon as I got it. For some reason a bad hunch I reached out saturday to make sure everything was good for Sunday. I was told no, I had to reschedule because y'all called my bank after they were closed to “verify check”. 7pm east coast time. We all know banks are closed, did not attempted 9-12 on saturday but that's my fault also, at least to who I spoke with multiple times on the phone and chat.

    I call in Monday because still nothing from no one at Carvana, they call my bank, put me on hold, come back and say everything is good. Didn't even need me to verify anything with bank. I signed all paperwork, insurance papers, check and all other paperwork that was asked. Was supposed to get car Sunday, couldn't get it until Tuesday. Checking out car, which wont in pictures, looks like something got on drivers door bazel for windows and caused discoloration. Went to put the cover on the cargo section, one of the clips broken on that. Look up the warranty and imagine that doesn't cover either. So it's return the car or deal with the flaws not address at sale.

    Now we hit the 7 day mark and now we have paperwork problems, registration is delayed and again falls back on me to handle. After all the signing online to “save trees” the signing at the dealership. Now I have to inconvenience myself to go into a fedex to drop of paperwork. By far the worst buying experience out of the 10-15 cars I have bought over my lifetime.

    I received my car from Carvana and noticed an issue within 15 minutes. I immediately called and followed their instructions, but I had to use the car before getting it to an authorized dealer. Silverock, the warranty company, is refusing to cover the cost of replacing the batteries or diagnosing the issue, which amounts to $550 just to identify the problem. Additionally, Carvana is demanding over $850 to return the car because I exceeded the 400-mile limit. Carvana sold me a defective car and is now passing the repair costs onto me. I am seeking others in New York State who have had similar issues with Carvana to file a class action lawsuit.

The credit bureau was closed. However, Carvana proceeded to take the down payment out of my bank account without a loan approval for a car. I called and asked why did they take the down payment before the loan was processed and approved, they could not give me a valid reason. I asked for my money back and I was informed that it would take 10 business days from 5/31/2024 to refund my money.

    First vehicle arrived with body damage that wasn't disclosed. I took pictures before it came off the delivery truck, informed the driver and informed a customer advocate within an hour or so. I also informed the person who reached out later to confirm the replacement purchase, and she did get the second shipping charges dropped off. She also advised that I immediately upload the pictures to the website. Ordered a replacement vehicle, which arrived in perfect condition, albeit after a week long delay. I told the second driver about the damage, and she said that NO ONE noted in the transaction the damage and that I'd have to pay for it. But she was extremely helpful and was able to get it worked out so I didn't get blamed.

    BE SURE YOU GET WRITTEN DOCUMENTATION OF EVERYTHING. But, even with these major frustrations, I would still say it's much easier than dealing with a high-pressure sales person at a dealership. This is the second car I've purchased from Carvana, and when it's time I'll likely buy my third from them as well.

    (Carvana damaged my vehicle and will not let me have it for three weeks from purchase date and will not disclose the damage they caused) Well here I am I bought a Carvana vehicle with delivery expected in 6 days. On the 4th day I get a notification that the car was “delayed in transit“ adding two weeks from the initial delivery. So I called and called and chatted and chatted for 5 and a half hours to finally find out my car (which I’ve already paid for) was damaged and they will not disclose why how where it is absolutely nothing. This is a perfect history low mile GEM with never having had any damage or paint work in its life, and trust me I paid for that part.

    No car matching exists in the country at this point in time and probably never will I had a specific option and trim that I wanted and Carvana had it even though I’ve been told too many times not to buy there they had THE car. They refuse to answer any questions about my car and they hang up and disconnect from the chats when they get tired of me wanting to know where my car is and what happened. They ensure it will be repaired and do not want to deliver a vehicle not as described but refuse to tell me why. This car matters on what was damaged paint work, devalues the vehicle.

The car was delivered with just less than half a tank of gas, and with the coolant level low. I received a Low Coolant error message within 10 miles of driving.

I let that go, but it was also advertised with a hard top but came with a soft top and when I required they basically said, "" oo bad and we will send you a whopping $100 in about 6 weeks for the inconvenience. I also tell them they have the wrong address on my registration, they assure me it will be registered and paperwork will go to the correct address.

    Now I get texts stating they need me to send back more registration paperwork before my temp tag runs out and I have not received anything. I try to chat, but communication is poor and sat almost 20 minutes waiting on an agent to “look up my account” with no response to messages. Try to call and you’re on hold for 40 minutes.

Secondly, Carvana made the transaction very easy; even providing a delivery option (which I paid for). In addition, you cannot beat Carvana's 7 day return and exchange policy.

When finally delivered - the driver arrived early, before my appointment time, and had a terrible attitude when I asked her to wait while I finished a work call. She was so rude to me and my husband, really obviously doesn’t like her job. Refused to speak to my husband, refused to help taking the plate off our trade in pickup as it was loaded before we had a chance to.

    I asked her to move the truck so my mother could pick up my son from school, she had parked where I asked her not to, blocking the driveway. She refused. My husband stepped up on the flatbed to take it off and she loved the platform while he was on it. When I asked about a second key, she turned to walk away, I asked again, she said she was going to check, got in her truck and left. The worst customer service I’ve ever experienced.

    She must have scraped the bottom of the car taking it off the truck, the vehicle sat for two days before I could drive it (work trip) and when I did, it shook and stalled, barely made it home, pulling up, saw oil stain where it had been parked. There was no oil in the car. Tried to add some in, falls straight through to the ground. Returning, having lost a shipping fee, over a month of my life, interest on a car loan and 500 gap insurance, as well as a month of insurance payments. I’ve spoken to so many people at Carvana, explaining this, no one seems to care.

    First BMW had a few notifications that needed to be addressed. I was not satisfied with the car overall. I called an exchange advocate, who was so patient and kind, that got my exchange taken care of. A couple days later, I was able to exchange the old ride for a new ride. I have been beyond happy ever since. As of today, I plan to purchase all my vehicles from Carvana.

    Do not buy anything from Carvana ever!! They refused to issue me new temporary plates after my current ones expired. Customer service constantly just dodged my questions and even just abandoned chats / hung up the phone on me when I asked about new temporary plates. 4 months after receiving my car the check engine light comes on and take it to get repaired. After 5 weeks they gave it back to me and said they couldn't fix it because the wiring was so messed up only the dealership would be able to help me. So I took it to the dealership and they fixed it but it cost $3800 dollars in repairs for a $18,000 dollar car!!!!

    We had a couple hiccups along the way, but we got everything ironed out and I had my new van in about 2 days! The van I purchased was a 2013 town and country with 37k miles on it. Got it for an amazing price as well! The person that delivered the van was very nice and professional.

    Easy process, delivery great. Car features listed a CD player, but no CD player is in the car-disappointed in that. Otherwise very happy with the purchase and the car is great. I would use Carvana again. Customer service at delivery was great, very knowledgeable and went quickly. Great service all around.

    I need to know what the first payment date is and if it is draft or pay online, which is what I prefer. Delivery service was great. I wish I had done this before. The driver was very courteous and helpful. My next car will be from Carvana. I have already recommended Carvana to many of my friends and relatives. They were impressed.

    It was a dirty vehicle, the service light came on, and customer service was horrible. I spent over an hour between SilverRock and Carvana. Both useless. There seems to be a lack of understanding between a repair and servicing a vehicle. I had to service the vehicle and have it detailed which Carvana refused to help. They will be in trouble with the way the market is going. Local dealers help people clean and service their vehicles.

    This was my first experience with Carvana, and except for the online order process once I found my car, everything went beautifully. It was a pleasure to view all available cars and their specific features from the comfort of my home. Car delivery and signing of final contract (with Notary provided) was a celebration! My car looked just as it appeared online. I am super pleased!

    I purchased a plug-in hybrid Volvo XC90. Pictured online in the trunk was the power cord and floor mats that were supposed to come with the vehicle. I was told by the field advocate that this has happened before and he has gotten the cord FedExed overnight. After not receiving the cord, I proceeded to contact Carvana and was told that they could not get a cord to meet a refund to purchase a cord. I am extremely dissatisfied as the cord was pictured and is needed to use all of the features of the vehicle. I have been a huge advocate of Carvana by purchasing and treating in my last two vehicles with you. Moving forward, I will not be using Carvana because of how you've handled this experience.

    Only reason I leave a mid review is because, your misleading on the description on the truck We bought, and the steering was unsafe. We had to get it fixed, not very good communication with one of your staff members online.. Another lady we spoke to was great, very helpful. Other than that I would highly recommend anyone to buy from Carvana.

    10 days ago my husband and I purchased a car from Carvana. Two days ago, the battery died. Today we took the battery to a repair shop where they ran a diagnostic and it said the battery is completely dead and a bad battery that no longer can hold a charge… I called Carvana and they said I have to pay $100 for it to be repaired! Additionally, the car came without a gas cap and they refused to provide us with one. Just very frustrating that they do not properly inspect their vehicles and do not offer to make things right.

    I would NEVER buy through Carvana again, or recommend it to a friend. The process was a pain from the beginning to the end. First frustrating part is when you go to apply for the car and it tells you you can receive it on a certain day and then you continue applying and put in all your info only for it to tell you that it’ll be a week later than it originally said. When I finally got to pick up my car there were scratches all over the place that were NOT in the pictures in the listing. The guy said “it’s probably from loading it onto the vehicle or when they cleaned it”. What??? He also forgot to include the charger for my car and I had to go back in and ask for it. Buying from a dealership would’ve been 10x easier.

    My wife purchased a vehicle, including a $690 shipping fee. We were told our insurance company could not send us the information showing the vehicle was insured until two days later. My wife informed Carvana and the agent told her no problem, the car would still be held for her. The next day we were told the car had been sold to someone else. The agent refused to refund the shipping cost although the vehicle never shipped. We were told we could not apply the shipping fee to another vehicle purchase. Even if the same vehicle somehow came avaliable we would have to repay the fee again.

    The next day my wife spoke with another agent and was told the agent from the previous day was wrong, the car had not been sold to someone else and had still been on hold for us. It was too late at that point and someone else had then actually purchased the vehicle. Carvana is refusing to refund the shipping. Their agents lied so they could steal $690 from us. They legally lied to us to steal our money.

    This is my second purchase with Carvana. I bought a 2023 Kia Sportage. They delivered me a car with a cracked windshield. I was told to call SliverRock, their repair company to start the process to get it fixed. Silverrock needs a confirmation email to start the process. I called Carvana twice they refused to pay to fix the windshield but told me if I was unhappy with the condition of the car to go back on their website to exchange. I just want my windshield fix, it will not pass inspection in my state.

    Let me first start by saying I never thought I’d find myself buying a car 100% online. There’s a level of uncertainty and skepticism that comes with the territory. So far I can happily say that this has been the easiest car purchase I’ve ever had. Having bought dozens of cars before, that’s saying something. I hope the ownership. I can’t comment that much on billing as of yet because I have made my first payment but hopefully that is all as seamless as it was acquiring the vehicle to begin with.

    Fairly easy experience to shop and find a good car, had a few hiccups with their document process but nothing major. They did deliver the car with a filthy inside windshield, and the vehicle had slight bumper damage not shown on their pictures. The car's floor mats were shown as clean, but the one with the dried milkshake spill all over it was hidden on the bottom to not show it. I was going to replace them anyway. Overall I would say Carvana tries to hide some imperfections to get their inventory moved. Not a deal breaker for me, but be cautious.

    My mother in law sold a truck to Carvana a year ago. The deal was perfect. So I decided to try. I went in and got a great offer for my wife's Cadillac and traded it for a BMW for her. The deal was so easy and we had the car delivered fast. I am so surprised how fast and easy working with Carvana is. In fact, I traded my Durango in for a Ram Truck with Carvana! All in 2 weeks' time. When it's time again to trade in, I will do it again!

    This is the third vehicle I have bought with Carvana in the past five years. Each and every time I assume there is some risk purchasing a vehicle in today's technology landscape. However, each and every time they continue to impress me. The most recent vehicle I bought came in and I took a test drive and it was awesome except a couple days later I noticed a few things, such as breaks needing to possibly be replaced. So I called Carvana. They allowed me to go to a repair facility and I got not only new brakes but some other things that needed to be done completed at zero cost to me and just when I thought I was going to have my first less than great experience with it, they end up delivering on customer satisfaction, and customer experience yet again.

    ...defects not pictured, no level 1 charger or cord (I was told I would get $160 to buy my own but it takes 10 days to get approved and 10 days to receive), I spent 4 hours at a repair shop. I suggest getting repair shop list for EV vehicles. Out of the four shops in my area only one was willing to look at my vehicle. Convenient to do over technology but when there are issues it's frustrating. SilverRock is also the reason for the low rating.
