I recently purchased a 2020 Chevy Trax from this auction as my daughter's first time vehicle, and…read morewant to share my experience so others understand what they are getting into. Shortly after leaving the auction, the odometer screen began glitching on and off and there was a noticeable whistling noise from under the hood. We took the car for Maryland safety inspection and it failed because the odometer display went completely blank. I ended up having to pay about $560 at the dealer to replace the instrument cluster just to get the car to pass inspection. In addition, I had to spend more money on a valve cover, brake pads, spark plugs, oil change, and a full interior detail because the car was filthy. We laughed at the 'Clean Inside' stickers the auction has on its cars. If you are new to this you need to understand that these cars are sold strictly as-is. The auction advertises a 24-hour return window (red flag), but it ONLY applies to very specific major failures like engine or transmission issues. It does not cover problems like electrical failures, inspection issues, or other defects that show up immediately after purchase. Also, be aware that bidding can feel questionable. We observed one individual bidding on nearly EVERY car but never actually winning, which made it feel like prices were being driven up on purpose. Important advice if you are considering this auction: -- Plan to be there most of the day and long waiting -- Know which cars you want ahead of time --Run CARFAX reports if possible before bidding -- Research common issues for the specific make and model you're considering -- Bring a mechanic who can scan for codes and inspect the car (highly important) Even with a mechanic, it is not foolproof. Ours did not find any codes at the auction, but codes popped up shortly after we left. Financial reality: The car sold for $5,500. After auction and title fees, insurance, and everything else, my total investment ended up being about $8,000--$8,200. For context, a 2020 Chevy Trax with 103K miles typically sells for around $10,000--$13,000 at a dealer, so yes, I came out below retail, but that savings came with immediate out of pocket repairs, time, stress, and uncertainty right after purchase. My advice overall: -- Expect to spend additional money after purchase -- Set aside (at least) $2,500+ for immediate repairs and other miscellaneous issues --Know (don't wonder) the car will need work --Understand their return policy is a joke and extremely limited Personally, I would not recommend this business for anyone needing a reliable, ready to drive vehicle right away. There's no protection, you cannot fully test the car, and an extremely high likelihood of immediate repairs which make it a risky experience. The car runs, but the amount of work needed immediately after purchase was disappointing. If you choose to play with fire anyway, just go in with your eyes open.

Please beware of this place. I was looking for a first car for my teen and decided to try here…read moresince they had the warranty. After purchase I took the car in next morning for inspection to check for engine issues or transmission problems. Lo and behold the mechanic said car looks good on outside but this car is not worth the 5k. The host of engine problems that car had that was invisible to naked eye. He printed out all details and I immediately went to return car. Upon arrival the woman who appeared to be a Latina immediately said oh we not going to cover this under warranty. Me: How can you make this assessment in a minute and reviewing three documents in under a minute and you're not a mechanic. We waited almost two hours for the lead mechanic(their words) come out and say they will not cover the return. After 20 more minutes of arguing back and forth and showing our docs and mechanical pics and threats to involve the state of MD then we get the refund. My advice to all who buy cars from here, please go next day and get car inspected and if you find engine problems go return the vehicle before 5 pm next day. I kept the vin number so I plan to follow this car and see if they sold it to someone else without the necessary repairs. I plan to report that information to the state of MD if they resold that car. Lastly, I wish I knew this beforehand if you decide to get a car and I wouldn't go with title company on their premises. Rip off with fees. Go on MVA sight and get a 24 registration for $20 bucks to drive off lot. You will need to take a portable printer with you and tape to tape to window. I hope this review helps more than one person out there. Good luck!

Then you have to wait another hour to receive the paperwork for the car and the keys. After waiting all of those hours, I came to find out the car won't even make it down the road. I had to pay $1200 to tow the car back home. Ended up having to junk the car after mechanic said the transmission is completely gone. if you do not want to get scammed out of your hard earned money do NOT bid on any car here. Listen to your gut and do not buy a car. Most of the cars have no oil and has been dried to dust, the motors on these cars are completely gone yet they have the nerve to start bids at $8k for a car that does not run or drive. These are MAJOR issues with these cars and you will not have a car that's driveable Employees and customer service is TERRIBLE everyone is so RUDE and nasty. After making people wait hours in line and selling them cars that don't drive the least they can do is show some human decency and be kind.

A publication that tells you what the used cars are worth (Good, Better or Best condition) is owned by the same company that owns all the Manheim Auctions across the U.S and beyond?

It operates as a major brand within their portfolio, which includes other automotive industry leaders like Autotrader, Kelley Blue Book, and Manheim. They also own www.centraldispatch.com.
