My car I feel was a quick sell to them they did not do the proper point inspection or a proper smogAlso my car still has problems with the transmission and when I bought the car hoping to get a liter engine which was advertised on the website and on the contract it turns out to be a liter engine so how could they have did a proper point inspection when they can't even get the engine right

Dear *** ***
Thank you for forwarding the complaint received in your office from *** *** regarding the Vehicle he purchased on or about February 10th, and is having serviced at the CarMax in *** *** (“CarMax”). In his complaint, *** *** cites on-going repair concerns with the Vehicle and is requesting that CarMax allow him to return it, refund him his down payment and all monies paid to his finance company, and reimburse him for the aftermarket parts he chose to install on the Vehicle after he purchased it
Research indicates that CarMax has offered to purchase the Vehicle back from *** *** through the appraisal process. This offer includes paying off his current loan and results in positive equity in the amount of $2500.00. In addition, CarMax has offered to reimburse *** *** for all of the aftermarket parts he chose to install on the Vehicle pending receipt of verifiable invoices. This offer is still valid and *** *** is invited to contact the Management Team at CarMax (***) if he chooses to accept the offer
Thank you for providing CarMax an opportunity to respond

I purchased a *** *** from CarMax's Garland, TX location in January The vehicle was a second vehicle so I wasn't driving it much However, my primary vehicle was in use and I needed to use the Rover more frequently Immediately, I started having issues First, needed new tires (which I know is not covered) Then a computer update and service Again, not covered Then the entire electrical system when out in the vehicle I live in Texas and it was degrees with no A/C and unable to roll down windows CarMax kept the vehicle for almost three weeks trying to identify the problem When I expressed that I did not feel comfortable driving (whenever it got fixed) driving a vehicle with severe electrical issues, I was told that there was nothing to do but resell it back to CarMax, at a loss, and get something else from their lot This is the most horrible customer service from the corporate office and the local store I will say that the staff (following the company line) were very friendly as they continued to tell me "no" politely Go anywhere else for your auto needs
