If I count the time it took to get the repairs done after delivery, the vehicle wasn't ready until 10/19/21. I took the vehicle in for an inspection the day after receiving it and several of the required repairs were items on the so called 150 point checklist. The vehicle arrived with a visible oil leak (low oil warning light came on after about 20 miles), an old battery that failed a load test, bad windshield wipers, bad belts, and visibly damaged suspension. I considered returning the vehicle during the 7 day test drive but Carvana assured me those repairs would be covered by their warranty partner, SilverRock. It took SilverRock 9 days to approve the repairs so I never had the chance to make an informed decision. And in the end SilverRock didn't cover everything, so after many conversations with Carvana and SilverRock I'm still on the hook for about $800 in repairs for items that should have been addressed before I took delivery. I cannot stress this enough: DO NOT TRUST THE 150 POINT CHECKLIST BECAUSE IT MEANS NOTHING. You should always have an independent pre-purchase inspection done on any used car, so don't let Carvana's assurances about their inspection lull you into a false sense of security. More

Not to mention the double digit numbers in hours I spent on the phone between Carvana and my bank- I was sold a terrible car. I took the car to a mechanic. The car needed transmission fluid as well as co on the phone between Carvana and my bank- I was sold a terrible car. I took the car to a mechanic. The car needed transmission fluid as well as coolant. Fine, not a big deal. Doesn't cost much to fix those problems. The car had 4 misfiring sensors including one with the turbo-charger. Which had already been replaced/fixed according to Carfax. The mechanic told me this is not a good buy. I did not buy. Besides mechanical issues I was sold a dirty and greasy car that had been sitting in inventory for quite a while I imagine, due to the cobwebs spun under the car. I will never buy a car from Carvana again. I will recommended anyone who inquires about buying a car not to buy from Carvana. This was the worst car buying experience I've ever had, as a millennial, the demographic you market to. be better, Gabriel P.S. Your survey is misguided. Yes, the delivery service is fine. The car was xxxx. Check your cars before selling, please. More

Poor QA regarding their visual inspection of this car. The 360 showed only 2 imperfections but there were so many more. I only kept this car because I wanted this cars paint color and the professional ass The 360 showed only 2 imperfections but there were so many more. I only kept this car because I wanted this cars paint color and the professional assistance I was given by Advocates to resolve the claims. Good PR by both Carvana & Silverrock. More

Floors of car were dirty and I guess the 150 point inspection didn’t include if all the bolts were in splash guard under engine which caused it to fall and get destroyed inspection didn’t include if all the bolts were in splash guard under engine which caused it to fall and get destroyed More
