Customers Continue to Go Through It With Carvana-February 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 $16,000, This Corvette Should Come With Miles Of Orange Track
For $16,000, This Corvette Should Come With Miles Of Orange Track
The 1965 Mako Shark II concept car previewed the styling direction of the C3 Corvette, albeit with greater exaggeration. Today's '71 Coupe is claimed to be a MACO - whatever that is — but will its price take too big a bite out of its buyer's wallet? While the styling...

The Gemballa Mirage GT took Porsche's audacious Carrera GT and gave it more of everything. Today's Gemballa-aping Boxster also has more — more fiberglass, more inches between the wheels — but does it come with a price that should be less? Less is more has long been the mantra of...

For $550, Your LeMons Limo Awaits
Current economic conditions may not be optimal, but that doesn't mean you'd have to completely give up life's luxuries, or as today's Geo Metro proves, LeMons racing. Still, is this little limo really priced to do even one lap of luxury? Have you ever noticed that Elvis impersonators never look...

Rossi are Red, Veloce are too, today's Alfa è bello, but does its price say screw you? When the Alfa Romeo Milano appeared for the first time at the Los Angeles International Auto Show, I dutifully visited the display to check it out, new U.S. models from the beleaguered Italian...

Volvos and V8s go together like Ikea furniture and orthogonality. Today's trumped up 240 is probably pretty good on the straights, but will its price throw you for a curve? I don't normally like to on Mondays reference Friday's results, preferring instead to start the week Groundhog Day-like as though...

This year, Volkswagen released a new New Beetle, and over the decades they built like a gazillion old Old Beetles. Today's Type 1 is a new Old Beetle, but is its price old news? When life gives you LeMons, screw making lemonade, get racing! And yesterday's proved to be a...
