We went to the South Austin location, and met Hayley. She is a joy to speak to. Her knowledge, professionalism, and positive demeanor meant a lot. We will hopefully be able to purchase our next car from her. Do yourself a favor, and set up an appointment with her ahead of time. She is the bestest! read more

I took my 3013 Ford Flex to sell....I walked out with a very fair offer. Unfortunately I realized the check had my deceased Mims name rather than mine. My bank would not accept it even though I had all the legal paperwork giving me the right to sell. No problem...Brandon is going to have a corrected check cut for me tomorrow. Everyone there has been very professional and helpful. I am very pleased with them. read more

Well, it appears that most of the bad reviews are about buying a car. I haven't experienced buying a car from CarMax however; selling is easy breezy! I was in and out in less than 2 hours with a check in hand for my car. They were fast and professional. Gave me right at Kelley Blue Book. Happy with the efficiency and ease. Thank you! read more

I am sitting at the dealership right now riding this post. We made an appointment for 5 o'clock and we drove almost an hour 45 minutes later they keep telling me 10 more minutes every 10 minutes. They do not appreciate your time with the customer at all don't bother come to this dealership. read more

The worst nothing but junk car they all from the junkyard they all be careful there's so much junk car

My tires were crap. My brakes were crap. My transmission is probably crap. This place is such a stereotype of itself. And the cars are dirty. Here's my advice: (1) if you're in your 30 day window, just take it back. (2) If you're in your 90 day window, go to the most trustworthy service shop you can find. Get them to run every diagnostic, find out how run down your breaks are, your tires are, all that. Then take it back to CarMax on day 86 or something and tell them to fix it all bc they sold you a run down POS and it's under the 90 day warranty (it might also have a mileage requirement , like whichever is lower, so watch that too). Because I promise you, they only made sure it'll drive off the lot and that's it. They will tell you, it passed our inspection! I'm like, you know how bad off a car can be and be passable? Plus, their records are crap. When I asked about their warranty they were like we have no record of you buying a car from us. I was like, well I do, and the IRS should? So I'd talk to your CPA?! So last but not least, (3) keep all your documents. Their business office sucks. read more

First, Kevin Dao our Sales Consultant. was a pleasure to work with. Went with my son to trade-in his car and buy a car we had shipped from a different location (which didn't cost us anything BTW). The process and experience from start to finish was VERY smooth. Gave my son a more than fair price for his car (they honored the trade-in quote I did online before we came into the store). The car we bought was in great shape when we test drove it, but they went the extra mile to fill it with gas (was at 1/4 tank when we test drove it) AND washed/cleaned it (looked new) before we drove it home. In contrast, this was a night and day difference from our HORRIBLE experience at Maxwell Ford (I left a review of that experience if you're thinking of going there...). Thanks, CarMax South Austin. For making the experience such a positive one. read more

The website: this is an awesome place to purchase for used verhicle. i have greet experience using the website to look, compare, and get pre-approved on their website. Customer service is amazing: i came to the store in N. Austin to purchase the car that i got pre-approved for but i changed my mind in the last minute then Susan Pruett and Anderson (Carmax in the S.Austin) helped me out. I feel extremely impressive of how professional and diligent Anderson was when he gives me detail information about the car and also give me space And time to make decisions. read more

CarMax - Used Car Dealers Near Me - Austin, Texas

the business office just mishandled a car turn-in for someone deceased. I am the executor of the will. I brought the car back as their is still money owed on loan. Carmax made me pay money on a loan that was not mine nor was the debt mine before I could leave the car. This is not a sell-back. Carmax owned the car and title. This is me returning property. Why did they make me pay? Do they not understand probate or law regarding executors? I'm trying to do the right thing and I got SCREWED... when I called carmax to clear this up they said "you should have waited to got the car repossessed." F@$k off CARMAX! read more

Wow. Stunned. Went to get service done as I purchased a vehicle from them less than 6 months ago. These people are cruel. CRUEL. They said they couldn't help me because they didn't have any service people working today. (Wtf????) Look at the wheel in my pics! They didn't even offer to help put on my goddman SPARE TIRE despite me offering to pay. So because they didn't even help me get a tow truck, I drove my ass to the nearest discount tires (luckily it was only 5 mins down the road) but now there is more damage to my vehicle than it had initially when I pulled into Carmax. FUCK THIS PLACE. I wish my car had died anywhere else besides this hell hole. I am personally referring to a tall, middle aged, african american man with a dad gut. read more

CarMax - Used Car Dealers Near Me - Austin, Texas

Has major engine trouble - the warranty will not cover and no one at CarMax is calling back. Car has ben at approved warranty mechanic out of town (the mechanic shop has been aweswome and trying to help), Per the mechanic, vehicle should be approvede since there is no way that i could accumulate sludge in the mileage i have put on it and i do get regular oil changes. It is the being ignored part that i hate the most. Filing a complaint with BBB. The warranty is basically forced on to you at time of purchase only to not have it honored is frustrating. read more

BEWARE. We bought a car and paid for the extended warranty, but the engine is having major misfiring issues. We bought a lemon, and they're not honoring the warranty at all. Too bad - we're going to be in the market for several more cars in the next few years... read more

We just traded in two cars for a nice suv. Kevin Dao was our Sales Consultant, but I must he was more of a wizard. He helped my mother with the sale of my deceased father's vehicle. The complicated title situation has been holding up this sale for about a year now. Even the dealership that the vehicle came from were unable to help. Thanks to Kevin and CarMax, we were able to get that vehicle sold, along with another extra car we had. The entire process was almost effortless. I highly recommend this CarMax location. If at all possible, ask for Kevin Dao. I cannot speak highly enough of him. read more

CarMax - Contact information. - Used Car Dealers Near Me - Austin, Texas

I rently purchased a car from CarMax, south Austin. I've been looking for awhile, narrowed it down to two, gently used- 2 yrs old, low mileage with all the bells and whistles. My sales rep, Theodore made the transfers and purchase seamless. ( I hate buying cars!) Once car arrived, we did a walk-around. Few touch ups plus detail was all that was needed. They did not have time to do all before Christmas so I drove car home. Returned last week for some minor touch ups and detail. Wow!!! She looks like they drove her off the showroom floor. Looks new, smells new. Service was outstanding!! Communication regarding service was outstanding. My first purchase from Carmax was very impressive. read more

Very nice CarMax sales office and services. Had a very nice experience talking to several employees. They are very well organized! The facility looks super clean and like brand new. I had an appraisal done to my vehicle and the offer was about $2,000 below of what I expected. Oh well, still liked the business! read more

Before I go into detail about my ongoing nightmare with these clowns, I'd like to say that it takes a really really bad experience for me to get on yelp and write a negative review. After about 2 months of searching for the right car to trade my truck in for. We came across an infinity qx50 at this location. We came by and test drove it, immediately fell in love with it. It's a nice car, low miles. Theo, our salesman was great throughout the process. Carmax took my truck for the trade in and all of the equity was put towards the down payment for the infinity. I was nervous about this purchase given the fact that these cars in particular are known to have mechanical issues without the right maintenance. I was assured that carmax will never allow a car on their lot with any defects. Every vehicle goes through "thorough inspection". Well, that's a lie. It wasn't until about 30 minutes into our drive home we noticed some clicking noises coming from the engine along with a slight exhaust like smell coming through the vents. This worried me considering the amount of carbon monoxide that flows through an exhaust system. I thought it could be minor, I'm being paranoid. I called service the next day to have it looked at. Nope. Service was backed up two weeks. They couldn't get anyone in. Even a new customer who purchased a car less than 24 hours ago already having issues. So, I set up an appointment at the north Austin location. They briefly looked at the car and said the noise was normal. I had a hard time believing that. I asked if they could do an oil change and drive the car around their parking lot so they could smell the exhaust fumes. The service manager quickly denied it and told me he could assure me the oil change was done by carmax when the car was purchased by them and that he didn't pick up on any exhaust scents coming through the vents when he drove it 10 feet to make space for another car. He then quickly tried to get me to leave as if he had more important things to do like take his lunch. I thought ok, I'll have to get in touch with infinity. After getting in contact with the infinity dealer in austin they pulled up the vin and said my car had in fact been in their service department about a year prior for a check engine light due to lack of oil changes/maintenance. I explained my situation to him and I recall him even telling me to be wary of vehicles on any carmax lot. Bad news for me. I drove to carmax south Austin and convinced service get me in asap. They finally set up an appointment for me. After a few days they call me telling me I have to start looking for a new car because mine is too far gone. They offered me two transfers from any carmax location under $500 and put me in a loaner car. I had about two weeks left before my 30 days was up for a vehicle return/exchange. I tried calling just about everyone you can speak to at the south Austin location and even corporate trying to get an extension on my 30 days or more incentive so that I wasn't rushed to get into a different car out of state with unknown financing options. I was denied. Over and over again. A corporate customer relations operator by the name of Paola even told me they couldn't offer more incentive because they were already doing me favor buying the car back! Even though I was still under my 30 day return!! No one could do anything for me except offer me two transfers. After one final attempt with corporate about different incentives they told me the best they could do was offer me a free dinner at any restaurant up to $100. It felt like an insult. I'm here for a car, not a meal. Now, since I am no longer officially a "carmax customer" they denied my request to use their loaner for a few days longer until I can sort out getting myself into another vehicle elsewhere. Thanks to carmax I am now car-less with my equity in hand. My intention was to trade my truck in, not sell it outright. What kind of company pressures a customer who was done wrong to purchase something without any kind of real incentive? Carmax is a joke. I will never consider purchasing anything again from these scammers. read more

They were the only people willing to actually pay me what my car is worth, so that's the reason for the 4 stars. However, having a positive experience here is dependent on whichever staff you get to assist you. The first time I was there for 5 hours and got sent home because of "missing documents", which was blatant misinformation and the staff assisting me refused to accept that they were wrong. The next day I went back and dealt with the a different crew and my car was sold within 40 minutes. read more

I'm really glad Carmax has the 7 day return policy. I took the car to my mechanic with in the 7 day period and I'm glad I did! Carmax claimed that the car had been inspected with their 124 point inspection checklist. My mechanic found that the coolant, brake and transmission fluids were overdue for service, the air filter was dirty, the serpentine belt squeaks, the battery is very corroded, and the tire tread is very worn (5/32, which is just barely passable, I would've had to replace them within a month)! All of these should have been caught and fixed after their inspection!! When I took the car in for a return, Carmax offered to fix some of the issues however I'm not comfortable with this vehicle as it had been misrepresented. These issues should've been fixed prior, either at this dealership or the one it transferred from. This car isn't up to their standards and it's no where near mine. For me this offer to repair the lengthy list of problems was too little too late. I looked into purchasing a different car from them. I'm a return customer, and I understand the no haggle policy, but when you (Carmax) mess up, you (Carmax) should be willing, for the sake of your reputation and customer service, to take off something from the price. I feel this was a fair request given that I had wasted time and money on this car. They were not willing to do that however. I don't feel like Carmax valued me, my time or peace of mind. I had paid the down payment with debit and they initially said they would mail me a check for the payment amount and it would take 10 days for it to arrive?!? These seemed ridiculous and very 1995. Luckily, there was a man in the business office, a real MVP, that stepped in and was able to assist in getting my payment refunded just by swiping my debit card. This guy in the business office (I wish I could remember his name) was the only one out of all the other employees I interacted with throughout the whole process that made me feel like my time/money were valued and respected. At least one of them knows something about customer service! It took over an hour to return the car. This felt like a sale tactic, to make me wait a long while to see if I would change my mind on purchasing another car with them. Overall, this store's customer service was very disappointing. They treated me like I was just a faceless number, and didn't really do anything to correct their error. They showed no concern for their lack of customer service. I'm glad I was able to get my money back and I'll take my business elsewhere, perhaps to a store that cares about its customers and its reputation. read more

CarMax - picture my mechanic took of the corroded battery - Used Car Dealers Near Me - Austin, Texas

They used the bait and switch to get you to bring your car by. They gave me a value of 43,200.00 up to 53,200.00 on the internet. The car only has 2588 miles on it, almost two year old in June, as on can see hardly ever driven. It is in perfect condition, sleeps in a garage covered, never been rained on. After driving one hour to get to carmax, waiting one hour for appraisal offer they offered an insulting offer of $ 45,000.00, really I said. I asked why and they had no answer other than they low balled me. So beware. Was offered 49,500.00 two hour later from a different respectful dealer. k read more

Went in here to get an appraisal for my car, gentleman at the front was very nice and gave me all of the information I needed. They told me they would take around 30-40 min which they did. Pat attended me right away and was able to give me all of the information for my appraisal. He was honest and transparent about everything, truly very helpful! I definitely recommend coming to this CarMax location, they're quick and truly very nice people. read more

I'd done a cursory car evaluation on line for my 2018 TOTOTA CHR. I was pleasantly surprised by Carmax generous evaluation. I remind myself this is an online offer. ANYONE can throw out numbers to Entice. A common ruse to lure victims into their clutches. I was certain, once inside the clean shiny professional office, I'd fall victim of the brain scramble used car salesman are notoriously known for. I'd be forced to sign off on a pittance of what my car was worth. Waiting for Mister advisor to bring me the inevitable horrific bottom line, I berate myself for being so gullible. Falling prey to mister shady car dealer shamboozealing me out of my hard earned dollars once again. 20 excruciating minutes later Mister approaches me. My brow sweaty, eyes tearing , hands clammy , I look to him for any sign of .. HUMANITY!! There was no mistaking the numbers on the page.. I grasped my chair for fear of falling.. ID BEEN OFFERED MORE MONEY THAN THE INTERNET OFFER.. Thank goodness I'm not an excitable person.. who knows what could have happened!! bottom line is, CARMAX has become THE industry standard for used car sales making MISTER USED CAR SALESMAN an urban legend... read more

So, I've bought several cars from carmax and never had an issue until we tried to sell them back a car for personal reasons. Day one, we get through most of the work until it gets to the balance of what we owe on the car and we didn't bring our check book so we came back the next day a it was 8pm by this time. When we got there, we were then told that our balance exceeded the limit of the approved amount for a check, and the drive-thru at the bank just closed and we than loved into who we got the loan through and payed off the remaining amount and were then told we would have to come back because it hadn't processed yet (which we totally understood, Brandon even called to double check for us). So we are back for day three, and they've lost our paperwork that had our ssn numbers names and copies of our photo id's. read more

This place is an absolute disaster when it comes to communication and follow-up. It's nearly impossible to get anyone in the store on the phone regarding transfers. Trying to use the operator line always resulted in non-stop ringing (or an extremely rude person picking up the phone). If I didn't already have a non-refundable transfer fee tied up, I'd walk away from my deal. The only reason I am posting this is to let anyone entertaining the idea of working with CarMax, corporate or local, it would be a huge mistake. DEFINITELY DO NOT give them a transfer fee. read more

I'd always bought cars from individuals before buying from CarMax and after buying from Carmax I don't think I'll ever buy a used car again from a private party again. So I'll either buy CarMax or new from now on. The car I bought came with a warranty for 5 years or up to 125,000 miles, which cars bought from private parties don't come with. Also the selection CarMax has is absolutely phenomenal and they can ship you cars you want to test drive that aren't at your local CarMax, sometimes for free sometimes for a fee, depending on the distance. The one I had shipped to Austin arrived in like 2 days or so it was great. Also the terms of the financing were reasonable even compared to credit unions and it was just really nice to have a one-stop shop by financing directly at CarMax. I considered Carvana too but it's online only and their financing was wildly higher than CarMax's. I also considered car dealerships both new and used but their process was very confusing I just wanted to know how much things cost and even that was sometimes hard to get a clear answer to. Every person I communicated with at CarMax, whether via text, phone call, or in person, was absolutely courteous, professional, and not trying to take advantage of me in any way, everything was upfront. The fellow I did the test drive and signed off on everything with was Stephen and he was great. I mean CarMax left such a good impression on me that I would totally consider applying for a job there just to fill up some free time, it just seems like a great service they're doing for the community. I really got the impression that CarMax runs a tight ship, everyone's uniform is crisp, the facility is so clean and well designed, the website is A+, I mean everything about this company just says "We're running a professional operation here." I'm impressed, this is a very cool, very professional business and this entire process was fantastic, I will recommend CarMax to my friends that don't know about it. Good stuff. read more

First of all giving 3 because I had a 5 the first time and a 1 this time. The first TIme I went to Ikea and they wanted more than sticker price so I went here, no problems. This time they didn't have anything I wanted so imported two cars from San Antonio. They arrived the next day (Tues) but salesman was off Wednesday. I went in Thursday. Car #1 had no title so they wouldn't sell it. Car #2 he imported the wrong car. Fine, but he blamed me and sat there and argued with me. I KNOW WHAT I DIDNT WANT!!!! He agreed to get something else but I was pretty turned off and that one took 5 days to arrive anyway. Just not good sales practices and not coming back. I'd go 2 stars but averaging in the original visit. read more

I bought my 2016 Toyota Camry Hybrid LE at Carmax Houston, but brought my car into Carmax Austin five days after purchase. The sales associate at Carmax Houston said they were unable to fix the scratches on my car, but to try asking Carmax Austin. Carmax has a thirty day warranty. Carmax Austin said they were unable to fix the scratches on my car, but would try and clean the inside of my car. They do contract with a body shop, but will only send it out in rare circumstances. Carmax Houston wouldn't detail my car before I drove off the lot. Carmax Austin washed my car but the inside of the car was still dusty and didn't look like it had been wiped at all. I'll have to take my car to a body shop, and pay money for a detail. read more

Update to my last post. Same car now it's the radiator. This car should have never, ever been sold. The fact that they did sell it is deplorable at best. The blatant disregard from this company should result in legal obligations and consequences. Disgusting. read more

Now 2018 and I still have the truck from CarMax. We don't put too many miles on it. I will enlighten you on my dealings after I wrote their review. The truck was back several times under the extended warranty. Don't remember what we paid for the additional coverage, deductible was $150. One instance I brought it because it was loosing brake fluid. They called later to tell me they couldn't find anything wrong....$150. A couple of weeks later it was still loosing fluid. Dropped by local mechanic out in Dripping Springs and sure enough the master cylinder was nearly full when they pulled the cover. At that point, they started documenting everything that was failing on the truck and handed me the list. Drove the truck back over to the service department and demanded my previous deductible back. I actually even took the truck back to my local making sure they actually did the work. Not sure I'd buy another car or truck here. read more

Got an offer for my van, but it didn't take into account the increased value of wheelchair conversion. Two employees told me on the phone that if I would bring the van in, they could reappraise it, taking into account the conversion. Wrong.

Would've been nice if they'd told me that before wasting three hours of my time. read more

The absolute worst travesty of auto purchases. It is shocking that it takes 5.5 hours and 30 phone calls with 9 individuals to purchase a used car from the best of the best in smoke and mirrors. It would have been easier to buy are stolen car from a drug dealer. It is comedic bait and switch tactics like this that make it so hard for regular people to purchase vehicles. I should not have to be forced to physically go into car max and perform oral sex to get a car. read more

Out of all my vehicles purchases in the last 9 years, this was my 1st experience purchasing from CarMax. I purchased a 2017 Volkswagen Jetta SEL on 7/8/22 and I should've know everything would go downhill by how soiled the interior of the vehicle was. The vehicle was NOT serviced and underwent NO safety check / inspection. I was stranded on the road one week after taking delivery due to a dead battery and bad alternator. The vehicle has several other electrical issues that would never have been addressed because it took them three weeks to change the alternator. I was denied the 30 day money back guarantee because I was at 31 days...but this was while my vehicle was stuck in service for 21 days. I would've gladly gotten my $3100 down payment back and gotten another vehicle elsewhere but now I'm stuck with a negative equity vehicle that was never road worthy in the first place. read more

This company is horrible- I wanted to buy a car from their site and talked to customer service- first guy was a bit of a smart ass but i let it go and he gave me the number to the TN location where the car is I wanted to buy. Called and the guy that answered was very rude to me- his name was Naquan- he then transfers me without letting me know to a girl that was not the TN store which I told him I needed to talk to- that was a disaster... after that horrible experience of just trying to get the carfax and MSRP on a CLS i decided I will never buy from them. Not only that- a friend told me he got an offer for 12k for his car that's worth 20k from carmax and he took his car in to try and sell it- at the store they offered him only 5k- completely wasted his time. When he asked and showed other examples of his car going for a lot more with higher mileage they didn't give him a reason and were very rude. This company just seems like really bad business/ bad energy- scammy. If you want a car check out Carvana- way better run- better cars, less expensive, and amazing customer service. Unfortunately the car i wanted is at carmax, but no way i will do business with them after this experience. AVOID- bet the car you buy from them will not be good. I know how to buy a good car and i can tell carmax is not an ethical business. read more

10/10 DO NOT recommend purchasing a vehicle from this location or any Carmax for that matter. This may be a bit long but I hope it will at least save one person from the hassle that comes from purchasing a vehicle from Carmax. I've had my vehicle for less than a year, I do not feel safe driving it and I probably never will after these experiences and I 1000% regret the decision to purchase from CarMax. I purchased my 2018 Jeep compass from the South Austin Carmax location in September 2020. Since then, I have had several occasions where my vehicle shuts off in the middle of the road. The first occurrence was in January 2021, my vehicle shut off several times. When I took it into CarMax they found that there was an unrepaired recall that needed to be fixed, my vehicle was sent to a jeep dealership and this was completed. They kept my vehicle for over 4 days and it was like pulling teeth trying to get into a loaner. On June 9th, my vehicle shut off again in the middle of the road. Every light on my dash started blinking and my car would not turn back on. I had to call the police and a tow truck to block off the road and help push my car out of the lane. My vehicle was taken to the South Austin Carmax service center, where they told me there was nothing wrong and it was just a dead battery. I explained to them that I did not believe that was accurate due to the fact that the car shut off while ON, when typically a dead battery will just give you trouble turning the car on to begin with. Also, when the tow truck company came to get me out of the road, they attempted to jumpstart the vehicle which did not work. The service men refused to listen to any of that and insisted it was only the battery. I did not believe this one bit, however, I replaced the battery anyways just to be safe. (I also had to pay $80 for them to misdiagnose my vehicle, and shelled out $220 to replace a battery that most likely did not need to be replaced) June 16th, my car shut off mid turn in the middle of a very busy intersection. I was almost struck by a vehicle going over 50 MPH. This time, my vehicle turned back on shortly after. June 17th my vehicle shut off in the middle of the road AGAIN. Vehicle turned back on shortly after. I spoke with CarMax again, they said I needed to bring in my vehicle to be looked at again. However, they could not provide a rental or loaner vehicle because they didn't have any available and wouldn't have any for a "long while" June 24th, my vehicle will not turn on and has not turned on since then. Called CarMax Austin South and left several messages and my calls were never returned, I had to contact the CarMax Facebook page just to get someone to return my call. From there, I submitted everything through MaxCare and was told I would have to wait until the repair shop submits a claim and it gets approved before I can get into a rental. Let me also add, my vehicle was diagnosed with a melted fusebox by LAMBS Auto repair, when CarMax service member was "positive" it was only a dead battery. I was put into several dangerous situations due to this persons inability to correctly diagnose my vehicle. Now, onto MaxCare, the warranty program offered by CarMax and provided through Assurant. Absolutely horrible and quite honestly, probably a waste of your money. I was told today, June 29th (no vehicle for 6 days) that my rental reservation was approved and I could pick it up at anytime today. I show up to pick up my rental and I'm told there is not a car available for me. You can only imagine my frustrations. Called CarMax again to speak with a supervisor to see if anything can be done to help navigate through this horrible experience. I was told the service supervisor would have to give me a call back in the morning. I will continue to update my review as this situation continues. Buyers beware, do yourself a favor and don't shop here. Update: after speaking with the service manager at Carmax Austin South, they are unwilling to assist at all with this situation. Again, don't waste your time or money shopping here. read more

Do yourself a favor and avoid CarMax at all cost. They are extremely unprofessional, rude, and no one within their office communicate with one another. They had told me that I could have license plates sent to Carmax and they would call me when they were ready for pick up. I called for several weeks because no one ever contacted me. It got to the point where the temporary plates were going to expire and the employee told me just to come in and get another set of temporary plates. The next day I get a voicemail saying that they tried contacting me multiple times and since they could not contact me, they were mailing out my plates. Well guess what? No one ever contacted me or left me a voicemail and I never received the plates in the mail. I called to speak to them, and the girl on the phone was very unprofessional and rude. I asked to speak with the manager, and he was even worse, and started yelling at me on the phone and telling me the notes on the account said the plates were mailed. Now I have to go to the county, tax office and file/ pay for missing plates due to the scattered business practice and incompetence at Carmax. there are lots of cars out there. Avoid this train wreck of an establishment. read more

Sell your car elsewhere. This place is terrible. If you make an appointment, it doesn't help - they simply ignore you for hours on end.
