  • The News4JAX I-TEAM has been investigating Carvana, a company that promises “peace of mind” when you buy a car from them. But some local customers told us they’ve had no peace for months - accusing Carvana of failing to follow the Florida law and leaving them unable to get their titles and tags.

    WOW! Thank You So Much for sharing this! I live in Illinois and occasionally see a Carvana ad come up in my searches. Now that you have been kind enough to share this, I wouldn't touch a car from them with a ten foot pole.

    I sold one of my vehicles to Carvana, and the process was fairly easy. They even paid off the loan in a timely manner (in my case, anyway). However, I would NEVER buy from them. When I went to trade mine in, they didn't even test drive it ... they just turned it on, made sure the mileage was correct, and away I went.

A drivetrain is not actually a solitary part of your car - it's a group of drivetrain parts that collaborate with the engine to move the wheels and various parts of the car to drive it into motion. These parts usually include the transmission, differential, driveshaft, axles, CV joints, and the wheels.

  • @jesusgonzalez1236
    @jesusgonzalez1236 2 роки тому +7

    I'm 20yr in the car business and retired from it: 98% of the issues guaranteed is because Carvana is buying cars via auction or trades and it's selling them back to the public without having a title or release of lien from the previous lien holder if trades or purchases are not paid off in a timely manner or if you don't get a lien release in time this will cause a big issue and car cannot be retailed until title and lien is released from lienholder looks like Carvana rather sell the car without the lien clearing prior to retailing it. So that will put the customer in a bad position but by that time Carvana already cashed your money and or contract from lender Dealers have an obligation to process all title within 30-45 days max the lender can actually request the transaction be refunded to them if this is not done and if the new lender is not registered as the lienholder.

    Are they losing the sale paperwork, or the actual titles? If they are losing the actual titles. That means a replacement title is issued. In NV and WI and a few more states. If you have a replacement title, and someone at any time shows up with the original title. They can lay claim to a vehicle. Meaning you can lose your car to someone else.

    Stop fining them and start imprisoning them and the customer should get the car for free if they screw up like this. I've never trusted them and I do believe that some of those cars have been stolen and numbers changed. Of course that's an opinion but it's what keeps me from ever buying a car from them.

    That is an easy class action lawsuit worth at least a million dollars meaning the women who was issued to Florida temporary tags will probably win about $30,000, as lead plaintiff, in Damages everybody else will probably get about $20 and of course the lawyer will make about $300,000
