I rarely write reviews, but my experience with Carvana has been so frustrating that it warrants a warning to others.
My vehicle delivery was delayed not once, but twice, for the exact same minor issue. The first delay was supposedly to address a small problem that should have been resolved promptly. Instead of fixing it properly, Carvana delayed the vehicle again for the very same issue. That is not a repair process — that is incompetence and poor internal coordination.
What made the situation worse was the complete lack of meaningful customer service. Samantha and Valerie in customer service were entirely unhelpful. Both simply repeated the same scripted responses over and over, offered no solutions, and provided no real accountability. There was no ownership of the issue, no escalation path, and no proactive communication. Just canned responses and empty apologies.
When a company delays a customer twice for the same minor defect, it signals a breakdown in operations. When customer service responds with robotic scripts instead of problem-solving, it signals a breakdown in culture.
Carvana markets itself as modern and convenient, but my experience has been the opposite — disorganized, opaque, and indifferent to customer time. If you value reliability, transparency, and responsive service, I would strongly reconsider before purchasing through Carvana. The last we left off, they rescheduled the appointment, and didn't have a solution.
Extremely disappointing.

Simply put, Carvana is a better way to buy a car. You can browse, finance, and purchase a car online and have it delivered to you as soon as the next day. Cutting out the dealerships translates to thousands of dollars in lower costs on every vehicle we sell. We pass these savings on to consumers in four ways: lower prices (our customers save $1,430 on average per purchase), premium cars, a better experience, and no hidden fees.See more
