Carvana

The entire process was very seamless in the beginning. Found the car. Completed financing with Carvana that was comparable to other options. Completed the underwriting process and chose a delivery date with ease. Car was delivered as promised. Delivery person was awesome. The car looked great and was in the condition we were told and expected. We did our part, Carvana didn’t. We continued to follow the process after to see that we got our state's permanent registration. We had to upload documents several times but eventually saw the documents were accepted. Fast forward to a few days before the temporary out of state registration was about to expire. Opened a chat with a Carvana agent. The person was fine. After a long wait time, she told us there was no timeline for the permanent registration and Carvana would provide a rental. Went to pick up said rental and it’s a small sedan. My car is a mid-size SUV with a third row. Can’t fit the three kids in this rental safely with the car seats we own. Now, stuck with a car with no registration or timeline as to when we will get it and a rental car I can’t drive as needed. Overall, Carvana needs to address the registration problems that are plaguing customers. I would have bought from them again, but not after the registration problem. Losing out on repeat customers due to mismanagement will eventually lead to their demise.

At first I thought someone was playing a hoax because the whole buying experience was too good to be true. It has been 3 years since my purchase and I'm truly pleased with the staff and the financing of my beautiful car.

I was a little concerned because I had read some negative reviews, but took a chance and I'm so glad I did! Full disclosure, my first delivery date was delayed for 2 days and I was worried. But it came on the second delivery day, within 15 minutes of the time given, as confirmed by the driver when he called to give me his location. It got here, and it was beautiful! I've been driving it for a week now and love it! The whole process was unbelievably easy and I'm a very happy and satisfied customer!

Bad customer service. I received a call this am, saying the car arrived at their location with a cracked windshield from "weather issues." Huh? I had specifically rearranged my work schedule and changed over insurance from old to new to pick up today, was told they could only use safelight for windshield and they are closed today. I suggested they find another company to do the replacement today, was advised they could not. This should have been done. It's costing me money to wait for this to be fixed.

Here is a suggestion for Carvana...inspect the vehicle a day prior so this doesn't happen.

KBB value I just checked last week and this shows about $2000 less than what the details show on the KBB website itself. Very low offer compared to what the vehicle value states. This is called fraud.

I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Carvana. This would be my second purchase through Carvana. The first car I bought was totaled not even two months after I purchased it. I was T-boned by another driver and I didn’t know what I was going to do. Injured and with no vehicle, Carvana helped to get me in another car sooner than I could’ve ever expected and I absolutely love my second vehicle from Carvana! The process is so simple and easy. The hardest part is deciding what car you want. I don’t think I’ll buy any other way again.

This was my first purchase. Took 30 minutes compared to 4 hours at a dealer. The entire staff in Memphis, especially Erica, were professional and very helpful. Got the car we wanted for a great price. Delivery was so amazing at the tower. (Surprise for my wife.) Follow up calls to answer questions. Paid the full bill to have the car looked over and a minor repair made!

LOVED THE EXPERIENCE. Will never buy a car anywhere else!

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Everything with the initial purchase and delivery went amazing. The woman that delivered the car was fantastic and the sales agents were super helpful! However, I am now dealing with registration issues. My previous car was totaled and I’m waiting for some forms for insurance that are needed to register the car and get a refund on the sales tax.

I have communicated with Carvana a number of times on the phone and through chat. The other day I got an email threatening repossession because I have not uploaded the forms yet dispute the fact that multiple agents said to take the time I need. I immediately called and the agent on the phone sort of said "too bad so sad". She didn’t really say that, she was trying to be helpful but was not clear and didn’t seem to have the ability to transfer me to anyone that could help.

I am working on the insurance company and trying to get a couple more weeks to figure all this out but I can’t get in touch with any supervisors or anyone that can help.

I'm really unsure what to do and frustrated at their customer support. I’m hoping I can get someone that can help next time I call.

Overall I loved the buying experience and support. I loathe the post-sale support.

Hello. We purchased a vehicle today however some concerns and the sale persons advised the items would be handled and paid by Carvana.

1. BMW Idrive shows the vehicle is PAST DUE on an oil change.

2. BMW Idrive shows the brake flush is PAST DUE.

3. BMW Idrive shows the front brakes are PAST DUE on both the rotors and pads as we spoke to the local BMW dealership service department too.

4. Front fender paint damage was not notated in the photos by Carvana.

5. Interior display screen glass is damaged, breakage internal requiring replacement.

The 150-point inspection allegedly is false, fabricated, and none of the above notated. False advertising by Carvana, and in our opinion fraud. Salesperson assures us Carvana will pay to have these maintenance repairs handled as the vehicle should NOT be for sale with past due maintenance items. Even the BMW dealership service department tells us the same, shows within their computer past due maintenance.

As for the warranty, this does NOT address maintenance items that were not handled at the time of inspection by Carvana. As of the moment, awaiting to hear specifically how Carvana will address their internal mistakes. If they handle it, impressive and simple errors by the inspection team. And if not, obvious fraudulent advertising by the company and misled by the Carvana representative whom assisted us at the time of delivery. Uncertain whether the vehicle will be returned back to Carvana within a couple days OR repairs paid by Carvana. May indeed be more wise to purchase a CPO, certified preowned vehicle from the dealership as many maintenance items certainly not past due!

Overall, I am very pleased with Carvana. For a simple, smooth, and easy experience. I cannot express how impressed I am with how they conducted every circumstance no matter how miniscule the issue was, they made it a priority to ensure I was taken care of. A year has passed since I purchased my Focus RS from Carvana and my attitude towards them has not changed. I am still highly impressed and pleased with the overall entire process. Any time someone asks me for my thoughts on Carvana, I highly recommend them to look at Carvana when in the market to purchase a vehicle. It's very accurate that people don't remember what you tell them, but they do remember how you made them feel. Personally, Carvana made the entire process go so smooth that it made me feel great. Now I am looking to expand and upgrade yet again and due to my first experience with them, I will definitely be purchasing my next vehicle through Carvana.

I purchased a car from this site thinking it would run smoothly and it has been anything but that. I was supposed to pick up my car on Sunday (19th), I received an email saying my car was on a broken down truck and wouldn't be here that day and had to reschedule until Tuesday (21st). I received another email saying my car was scanned onto another truck going a different way, saying I have to reschedule to Thursday (23rd), mind you, I have two jobs and telling your employer that your way of transportation got scanned into a different county is not okay. Carvana not only transferred me through departments but did not do anything to try to fix it. I paid shipping and here it will be five days late and all I got was an "I'm sorry." I had to pay extra on insurance to make sure I had it by Sunday and here it is days later, still no car and still no help from Carvana. I'm not a happy customer and I will not recommend Carvana.
