Customers Continue to Go Through It With Carvana-March 2024

Oh, Carvana. When will you learn that customers just want the titles to their cars? Maybe they’re getting lost in the company this year — who knows? But as Atlanta local news reports, many customers either still don’t have the title to their vehicle, or are going through a hassle trying to get it.

WSB’s investigative reporter Justin Gray spoke with several Carvana customers. They had good things to say about the purchasing experience, noting that it was easy to buy their cars online. As it should be. The problem came when they tried to acquire the titles to their cars, leaving some in what’s described as a “legal and financial” mess.

One Carvana customer, Richard Stanford, bought his car but then waited months and months for the title to come in the mail. One day, he thought he had finally received it, as a FedEx package came for him. Instead, it was a letter saying that the company no longer had the title. So he decided to return the car to Carvana and get his original trade-in back.

“So I gave them a call, said I don’t want it, come pick it up and give me my truck back. OK, no problem,” Stanford said to . But this started even more problems. Carvana told Stanford that the tile to his trade-in would be sent to him in a few days. He never received the title. Georgia’s Department of Driver Services informed him that someone in Arizona had applied for his vehicle’s title.

Another customer named Jessaca Metz in Pennsylvania never received the title for her Ford Fusion. Because of this, the car had to be parked for over a year. “It’s been a runaround. It’s been a disaster since I started dealing with them,” Metz told . She said she kept getting excuses from the company. What’s worse is the Pennsylvania town she lives in is strict with its car registration laws. It’s illegal for a vehicle to even be parked in a driveway if it’s not registered.

While many of Carvana’s customer problems surround registration problems, there’s other bullshit going on. Consumer complaint sites are filled with customers detailing their problems with the company. One site called currently has Carvana sitting at a 1.8 out of 5 with 360 reviews of the company.

For the most part though, if you’ve followed our extensive coverage of Carvana, all we can say at this point is that if you do decide to buy a vehicle from them:.

For $23,500, Ritmo, Larry and Curly
For $23,500, Ritmo, Larry and Curly
Ritmo in Italian means rhythm or beat. In any language, Abarth means fast. Put them together and you've got today's 130TC. That sings a rare tune in any language, but will its price make it even rarer in your driveway? I know it's been a couple of days, and for...

For $4,995, Be Courier-rageous
Over the years, Ford's Courier moniker has adorned a number of disparate vehicles, all with similar intents made obvious by their name. Today's '80 Courier's intent is purposefully murky, but is its price too much for this Courier to carry? The old joke goes what do you call couples who...

Today's Lotus Esprit is claimed to be like the one James Bond piloted as a submersible in the flick The Spy Who Loved Me. While this one's not ready for water sports, does its project status and price mean the seller's all wet? The cool thing about being James Bond...

For $9,750, Could This Be The Land Cruiser You’ve Been Tennesseeking?
It's hard to say what a mint julep would taste like if constructed with warm sake, but it probably wouldn't ring any southern belles. Today's equally incongruous Tennessee Toyota is unquestionably tasty. The question is, is its price as well? Sometimes you can find the most interesting things in the...
