My Wife and I have now purchased 2 vehicles through Carvanna in the past two months, and I'm certain we'll do the same in the future. What also impressed me, was that their in-house finance option beat my USAA APR by 3-4%; so I financed through Caravana's lender. If you're like me, and don't like dealing with dealerships, car salesmen, etc., then Carvana is the dealer for you! More
Pretty good for the most part Overall I had a good experience. I got the car I wanted for about $1000 less than I probably would have paid at a conventional dealer. There were so Overall I had a good experience. I got the car I wanted for about $1000 less than I probably would have paid at a conventional dealer. There were some minor issues however. There was a piece of trim that apparently a Carvana mechanic had tried to replace, but they replaced it with the wrong part. This was confirmed when I took it to a Mazda dealer, who was nice enough to give me the correct part at no cost. There were far more body imperfections that were not reported in the Carvana listing, and I was only offered $100 in compensation. Some of these imperfections could have been easily fixed by a knowledgeable detailer and some Meguiar's ScratchX. The detailing job was amateurish, with excess wax left in the seams, spotted windows, and engine cleaner residue all over the battery. The wheels did not look like they had been cleaned at all. There was only a single key fob, and it will cost me about $120 to buy a new one and get it programmed/cut. Carvana could have duplicated the key, raised the price by $50, made a profit, and saved me money. A backup key is a requirement of car ownership. And finally, the whole car was a little dirty from its long journey from Georgia to Kansas. It wouldn't take more than 5 minutes to wipe a car down with Quick Detailer. This would shine the whole car and result in fewer returns, well worth it. I think Carvana is destined for greatness, but they need to mind the details! More
If I could give a zero, I would. This has been a bad experience since the beginning - and unfortunately, it's not over. My coworker had a great experience with Carvana, so we decided This has been a bad experience since the beginning - and unfortunately, it's not over. My coworker had a great experience with Carvana, so we decided to give it a try....And even if you have a good experience, be prepared to have to wait hours for a call back on even the smallest issue.....We loved the first car we test drove - a 2014 Expedition - but it had a slow leak in the front tire. We notified Carvana and made arrangements for them to pick up the car. In the meanwhile, we found that my husband's financing terms with Carvana were much better than what I had been quoted. We asked that when they returned to car to us, we switch the financing to him. Then Carvana lost the car. Then Carvana said the car had been promised to someone else. Then Carvana said we could get the car..... The car was returned to us 7 days later. That afternoon when we went to drive it, the low tire pressure light was on. When we called Carvana about the tire, they said that the slow leak had been noted but since we had decided not to purchase the car (not true) they had chosen not to fix it. (Even if we had decided not to purchase the car, it was a known defect that they chose to ignore.) We were told that we'd need to take the car to an ASE certified technician and that Carvana would cover the repair - including the $50 deductible. Of course, to find an ASE certified technician, I had to log into their 3rd party warranty site using our Carvana paperwork. Guess what - Carvana hadn't entered the paperwork, so we had to wait another 24 hours. After taking the car in, the mechanic called and told us that Carvana had refused to pay for the tire and that he'd discovered a "significant" leak in the power steering line. My husband and I tried calling Carvana back beginning at 3pm today. Finally, after 7pm, someone chose to call us back. In a way, the fact that they didn't fix the leak was a blessing since the mechanic found the power steering leak. Carvana's unwillingness to accept responsibility (they continue to call this a miscommunication) is mind boggling. We still haven't gotten confirmation from Carvana that they are paying for the tire, but you better believe that we will never ever darken the door of this slap dash sorry excuse for a dealership again. As my husband said, we're going back to Carmax where they treat us like customers, not suckers. More
Excellent service I was contacted by Andrew Hill of Carvana about a car I had recently advertised on the web. Andrew explained the process and asked me some questions I was contacted by Andrew Hill of Carvana about a car I had recently advertised on the web. Andrew explained the process and asked me some questions about my car. He came up with what I thought was a fair offer but I explained I wanted to continue with my ad and he was very understanding. He asked me to keep him in mind if I should change my mind. I waited about two weeks and after no reasonable offers I decided to contact Andrew. I went online and completed the easy to use Carvana process for selling my car. I completed the transaction after submitting the required documentation and was given an instant offer which I accepted. Andrew Hill was absolutely correct when he told me the Carvana experience was easy to use with no pressure. A seamless buying experience to be sure and I would definitely use Carvana again if the need were to arise. Thank you More

Car was easy to evaluate on line, assessment of pictures and description were very fair for how the car actually arrived. Trade-in process was also very easy and simple, and I received what I thought was a very fair trade in price. Online paper work was easy to upload. Car was delivered as promised on date/time, and was punctual. All the paper work, test drive, loading trade-in was done in 20 minutes or less. Best part: I told them the car was a surprise gift for my wife, and they put balloons and a gift basket in back for her. Perfect!!!! More
Awful service! Definitely look elsewhere! What a awful scenario. I received an appraisal one day ago and regenerated an appraisal before dropping off the car and they refused to honor the new What a awful scenario. I received an appraisal one day ago and regenerated an appraisal before dropping off the car and they refused to honor the new amount. I spent over an hour taking to various representatives and despite a difference of only $300, they were unwilling and unable to fix the situation even though they agreed that the revised price was accurate. They wanted me to take the car and come back the next day in order to get the $300. Overall, I despised this transaction and would be extremely hesitate to deal with Carvana in the future. I would look into Vroom or CarMax for a better service. For a company that prides themselves on technology, they couldn't figure out how to fix a $300 discrepancy. So poor! More
Bad Experience This Time - Second Car I Purchased I purchased a Honda Ridgeline from Carvana in 2018 and my experience was flawless. I recommended Carvana to many people. My experience this time buy I purchased a Honda Ridgeline from Carvana in 2018 and my experience was flawless. I recommended Carvana to many people. My experience this time buying a Kia Sedona from them was one of the worst experiences I have ever had buying a vehicle. I think their issue was they might have been getting new computer systems, but wow. I signed the contract around 5 times because they kept changing things on it or said I had never signed it. They once told me they could not deliver the vehicle on the promised date because it had drive-train issues, then called me a day later and said that was a mistake. When we picked up the vehicle we had a small problem, but finally we signed all the documents to pick up the car, and were shown the car and told to take it for test ride and if we had any questions the salesperson would be there to answer them. We took it around the block and when we got back my wife walked inside yelling for someone but nobody was around. Since we had signed the documents we left and drove home. When we got home, we got a call from them dressing us down for taking the car without signing all the documents. I requested they bring them to me, but they said no, so we had to drive 30 minutes back to Carvana. When I got in the car and adjusted the seatback to fit me instead of my wife, the seatback reclined all the way to a laying down position and wouldn't raise again. I had to use a pillow to prop up my back so I could drive it back to Carvana. When we got there we were told Carvana would not fix it. We had to drive it to the Kia dealership and have them fix it (but was covered by the Kia warranty). Overall, it was an extremely frustrating and difficult way to buy a car. I get the sense that Carvana has expanded too quickly and has let their quality mission fall by the side in favor of sales volumes. More
