I had purchased a vehicle from Carvana a few years back, and thought I would give Driveway a try this time. This was a mistake. My husband and I both purchased vehicles from Driveway on 4/17/23 and 4/19/23 More

Hello, Thank you for the insight into the current issues with your family's vehicle purchases. We apologize for the inconvenience and stress you are experiencing and will support resolution efforts with escalation to the necessary team members. So far, all we know is that one of the models is a Subaru. Please attach a screenshot of this review for team reference in an email addressed to customercare@driveway.com with complete contact and vehicle information included for yourself and your husband in the message body: order or vehicle VIN number, full first and last name as listed on the contracts, and a primary phone number.

Your team is very aware of the issues and concerns, and we have been in contact with your team. No resolution to be had as the blame continues to be punted to third party, or process etc. Given the high number of like reviews on several other sites, it is a constant issue for your company and customers. Some customers are still facing this after 6 months. Hopefully, ours will not take that long, but its a possibility.

Unfortunately, we do not have immediate visibility into the ongoing communication that has occurred. This request is simply to be able to attach this feedback to its correct and designated case in our system.

Again the review is to provide my experience to those considering working with your company (which mimics many of your customers as well). It has been made clear via cases that your company is unable to do anything to resolve the issues at this time, that it "is what it is". My case is updated with this concern via my contact with you.

Hi Mrs. Wagner, Kindly disregard the previous request for additional contact information via email. Necessary details were received on another platform allowing us to attach all feedback to your case keeping internal and online communication flowing. Paperwork submission occurred on 5/2 after the purchase, paperwork/contracting, and delivery phases were completed. The 4–6-week processing timeline provided by our DMV specialist Megan on 5/16 is accurate. Along with our third-party processor, we adhere to DMV restrictions in place between your home state and California, the vehicle's selling state. California does not give temp tags and unfortunately, Missouri would not issue another one for us. You were given a copy of the DMV documents to keep in the vehicle for proof if needed that license plates, title, and registration are on the way. We acknowledge and apologize for your frustration. Please be assured that everything is still on track to be received in the coming weeks.

Everything is not on track from a customers stand point. It may be for yours, but I am unable to drive the vehicle because of the delay with the paperwork. This is why I would not recommend anyone purchasing from driveway if they plan to drive their vehicles anytime soon. I would recommend another dealer that has adequate processes in place. This is mimicked in many of your purchasers reviews across platforms, yet as your reply indicates ‘it is what it is’. Your finance company certainly would not accept any excuses for non-payment, yet your customers don’t get to use their purchases when they should. I had to obtain the original temp tag, and driveway did not though it was all in the registration and tax fees paid. Missouri only does one tag, 30 days from the purchase date (4/16) so they expired 5/17. Again, as to you indicate, paperwork was not submitted until 5/2. See the process gap? Also, as stated above, my sons paperwork was turned around in two weeks, so the process your utilizing is not efficient - hence your inadequate leadership decisions in your processes as well as selection of vendors utilized. This issue did not occur with Carvana so it can be done, Driveway does not choose to create processes that work for their customers. It works for them only.

Hi Kelsey, We genuinely apologize for all inconvenience and understand your frustration amid reaching the maximum number of temporary tags while waiting on the processing of your vehicle registration. This feedback has been attached to your case for team awareness. Every region has their own set of DMV policies that must be adhered to. In this instance, the temp tag allowance/limitation applies both ways between the vehicle's selling state (if possible) and your home state. When you are given a timeline for completion, please be assured that it is the most accurate update given to our specialist working on the task.

Hi James, With no sign of additional contact information provided, we back tracked in order to reference the team members you worked with locating the designated case in question. Your frustration amid the poor communication plaguing your customer journey is understandable and we do sincerely apologize. This feedback has been attached for escalation and team awareness.

Update: After moving on with no deal I was contacted by customer service Dana who apologized and said that after reviewing my case and seeing how bad it was handled she reached out to a manager and explained the issues. They honored the original trade in price and provided me with 2 gift cards for the mishandling. The car was picked up within a week and I was pad 2 days later. Car was paid off in week and half. If this was how it was handled the first time I would say this was great service instead of a great recovery effort by 1 CSA who cared.
