    Saying goodbye to my midnight grey Honda CRV LX AWD 2019!!
    Chelsea A.

    It's been a long time coming for me to sell my car. Thank goodness I didn't do so before Carmax was a thing...seriously. When I was looking for quotes, I noticed Carmax ALWAYS gave me the highest bid. So I decided to go with them. On the day that I chose to sell my car, they had an opening that same day as well. say WHAT?! Most other places would've been booked out already. Took about an hour to drive there. When I got there, I was impressed how spacious and clean the building interior was. The inventory lot was also huge. When I walked in, my name was on a screen showing that I had an appointment, and the check-in guy pointed me to the Business Office. When I got there, I had to scan a QR code, enter in my offer code that was emailed to me, and pass off a copy of my car key. Not even 5 minutes in, a Carmax representative went out with a clipboard and my key and started appraising my vehicle right then and there. Needless to say I was anxious, thinking that my mileage getting there would've affected my appraisal (I know, silly me...) After the appraisal, I was so shocked to see that they matched my appraisal online and there were NO HIDDEN FEES! What they said they would offer me was what they were offering right on the spot. They gave me time to clean the car and collect any last minute belongings. That was probably the most bittersweet moment of them all - saying thank you and goodbye to my car that I no longer needed. I drove the car into the service area, and they started cleaning and removing the plates right away. Dawn was an amazing representative that took care of finalizing the documents, and made the transition from car to check super personable and human. Altogether, this transaction took about an hour and 15 minutes, which is also wild because I wasn't expecting such a smooth transaction. I'm super thankful for Dawn for her amazing customer service and this Carmax for an efficient transaction! May whoever gets my car next take it to make some amazing life memories - both mundane and adventurous!

    Worst car dealership EVER!!! Came in on Veterans days at 10am. Dealt with Kyle. HE KNEW NOTHING AVOUT THE CAR!! My friend and me had previously spoken to David over the phone. When arriving we found out the interest rate wasn't 19%!!I checked TruCar and the price at Carmax was doubled !!! They didn't inspect this car properly because upon doing a inspection ourselves we found food rapers! Save your money and go where it's valued.

    I just can't wait to drive it.

    In February 2019, I saw a 2016 Hyundai Elantra GT on line and just had to have it. I really wanted an SUV, but at that time my credit wasn't so good and I didn't have much to put down my payments would have been way too much to handle. So I bought the Elantra, which I absolutely adored. When my accident case settled, I paid the Elantra off, in full. Then I started looking for an SUV. I went back to Carmax on Tuesday, February 25th and saw my salesman, Greg. My daughter & I purchased a 2019 Ford Focus Hybrid. It was pretty much brand new. I live in the woods and we have a lot of deer because there's no hunting where I live. The headlights were horrible. I sent a text to Greg and told him I needed to give the car back. My daughter looked again at the website and saw a 2017 Buick Encore Essence and put it on hold. (It wasn't available earlier in the day on the 25th, because someone already had it on hold.) Our appointment was at 1:30 in the afternoon. I decided to go in the morning anyway. Greg came in on his day off and we swapped out the Focus for the Buick. I can't begin to say how fantastic the car buying experience is at Carmax. No pressure like at a dealership. My trade in on the Elantra was almost what I paid for the car in the first place and I put it all down on the Buick. My interest rate went from 15% on the Elantra to FIVE PERCENT on the Buick. I couldn't pass up this deal. The service department is also fantastic. I go to them for all of my service. They know who I am by name. I feel like I'm part of a family, not just another commission. I would never go to a dealership again, going to Carmax is like going to a car store. Also, at a dealership it takes at least 8 hours to purchase a vehicle from soup to nuts. I was at Carmax at 11 AM, Greg got there at 11:20 and I drove out in my new vehicle at 1:00, I couldn't be happier.

    Looks good from far, not so nice up close.

    From the beginning this was looking like a 5 star review. Everything from the greeting to the streamline approach to selling a car. We bought a 2017 Ford Fusion on March 7, 2019 and when we went out to the bay we found a nice big yellow ribbon on the car. Then we walk up to the car and it's filthy. I asked the salesman what's going on with this and he said they run it through the car wash and that's it. Water spots, smearing, couldn't see out the windows they were so bad. This really surprised me since they really seam like they have the car sales process so streamlined. All they need is some chemicals and a detailer and this could have been a five star. Very upsetting. My recommendation, don't sign until you look at the car after it has been "cleaned". Good luck.

    New air filter next to what they left in my truck.  Note, truck only had 19k miles.  Unbelievable.

    See all

    Took that one to my mechanic and he was very happy with the car except he said the front rotors were old and needed to be changed.

    I am sharing my experience to help others make an informed decision…read more I purchased a BMW SUV from VIP Auto, and since the time of purchase, the vehicle has had ongoing mechanical issues that have significantly affected its reliability. The vehicle has spent more time being repaired than driven. I made multiple attempts to have these issues addressed through VIP Auto, but I was turned away on several occasions or unable to receive consistent support. While one member of management did assist with some repairs, the overall condition of the vehicle at the time of sale raises serious concerns. After the purchase, I was informed by BMW service professionals that the vehicle showed signs consistent with prior accident-related damage, including observations made during service. This concern was also acknowledged in follow-up discussions. This information was not disclosed to me at the time of sale, and I was not provided with a vehicle history report such as a Carfax prior to completing my purchase. Additionally, there are visible areas on the vehicle that appear to have been repainted. This would have significantly impacted my decision to proceed. I also purchased an extended warranty, which I continue to pay for; however, it was extremely difficult to find a repair facility that accepted it. By the time I located a participating mechanic, much of the coverage period had been lost. After seeking service directly through BMW, I was presented with thousands of dollars in necessary repairs. Even with partial assistance from the dealership, I still incurred significant out-of-pocket expenses, including tires and ongoing repairs. To this day, the vehicle still requires service. In addition, I was placed into a high-interest loan and attempted to contact the salesperson regarding refinancing, but I did not receive a response. Due to the repeated mechanical issues, concerns regarding undisclosed prior damage, and ongoing financial burden, I have explored my rights under New Jersey consumer protection and lemon law guidelines. This has been an extremely difficult and costly experience. I strongly encourage anyone considering a purchase to obtain an independent inspection, review all vehicle history reports, and carefully evaluate warranty and financing terms before proceeding.

    In February 2025, when my 2023 Kia had around 47,000 miles, I took it to a Kia dealership to…read morereplace the front brake pads. Since I purchased the vehicle, I had always taken it to Kia dealerships because I trusted certified Kia technicians to service my car properly. They replaced the front brake pads and I picked up my car. At first, I did not notice anything unusual, but after a few months I realized that I had to press the brake pedal almost all the way to the floor to stop the vehicle. I wanted to go to the service center right away. But I couldn't, because of school, I could not return immediately, but once summer arrived, I took the vehicle back. At that point my vehicle had around 53,000 miles and the braking issue had become serious. The car would not stop properly unless I pressed the brake pedal almost completely down. I explained my concerns to the service department and they inspected the vehicle. The employee assisting me first told me that I needed to replace the rear brakes. I responded that during my most recent oil change, which had only been a few months earlier, the dealership's own inspection report stated that my rear brakes were in very good condition. After I pointed that out, another recommendation was given. The employee named Tim then told me that I should replace the brake fluid. That was the moment I became suspicious. First I was told one thing, then something different. Later, the same employee told me that when I get into the car, I should pump the brake pedal and that the braking would improve, and that this was considered normal. While my vehicle was still under warranty, I visited another Kia dealership. However, they told me that because the brake pad replacement had not been done at their location, they would inspect the issue but would charge a diagnostic fee. I decided not to pay and left. I asked multiple people afterward and was told that if the brake fluid still looked clean and remained full, it might not actually be the issue. I continued driving the vehicle. At around 58,000 miles, my rear camera failed. I had a long discussion with the dealership about that issue as well. At first they said it was software-related, but eventually they replaced the camera. Now my vehicle has reached around 70,000 miles and the brakes have become much worse. About a week ago, during an oil change, another employee again told me that changing the brake fluid would solve the issue. But when I returned later (after three days) , I was finally told that the brake master cylinder had failed. I asked them why they did not tell me this when I originally came in at around 53,000 miles and explained that this issue was not new. The employee checked the records in the computer system and confirmed that yes, I had previously visited and that recommendations had been made. Those recommendations were exactly the ones I described above. That was the moment I felt something was wrong. My impression was that they may have already had enough information to investigate this issue more seriously earlier, but instead I was repeatedly given different recommendations while the vehicle was still under warranty. Now I am being asked to pay around $900 for the repair. At this point, I feel like I have been left carrying the cost of a problem that I reported much earlier. I feel disappointed and misled by how this situation was handled. I feel like a victim! In addition, I am preparing to take them to court. My advice to future buyers: if you are purchasing a new vehicle and want to avoid experiences like this, DON'T BUY A KIA. Its parts break down very quickly and Kia's service department doesn't seem particularly eager to fix this. I am sharing service records and photos as well. I covered the VIN number and personal information. I hope sharing my experience helps future car buyers make informed decisions
