    Coolant splatter

    CarMax: CrookMaxxing Lemon Slingers The experience has been a masterclass in deceptive practices, zero accountability and zero fs given. What was wrong on day one: Service lights were already illuminated when the car drove off the lot (they keep deleting my photos here). Brake fluid and engine oil both overdue for service. The tailgate was also inoperable. CarMax advertises a rigorous 125-point inspection on every vehicle. Well their service department must be blind. Dash lit up like a Christmas tree. Also, severe water spots on the hood. What was discovered within three weeks (warranty period) -Active coolant leak with pressurized spray visible under the hood -Water intrusion inside the cabin. both front and rear -Rough idle -Leaking washer fluid pump. How CarMax handled it: When the first issues were brought to their attention, they made no effort to acknowledge them or schedule a service appointment. It was brought to their attention 3 times at the time of sale. For the rest of the issues, Saturday was my last opportunity. Turns out service is closed on weekends and I found out the hard way. I was directed to use the app by an employee who answered the phone, but the app has no scheduling feature. Only a phone number that routes back to a closed service department. My warranty expired while I was following CarMax's own instructions. They did not honor my attempt to schedule a service appointment. Warranty expired and I was told to kick rocks. I spoke with another floor manager to wait 2 weeks for some other manager. I refused to wait. I spoke with the general manager who said kick rocks. I spoke with the inventory guy - who said kick rocks. I am completely baffled as to why their warranty is 30 consecutive days vs business days. Why is it possible for a warranty to lapse on a weekend when you can't do shit about it? I was told to "leave a voicemail" next time. I spoke to a human. Why is that not enough?! I have the call logs. Why - did they not schedule an appointment? I don't understand how this is allowed as it is clearly a deceptive practice. CarMax inspects their vehicles like Boeing "inspects" their planes. We all know how that went. These guys make money laundering car dealerships look like saints. They actively and knowingly did not inspect the vehicle and made every attempt to NOT schedule service and took no accountability for it. Look at the other reviews here and complaints with the BBB if you think I'm overreacting. And just to add insult to injury, they sold my data to data brokers for which I am now receiving an onslaught of spam regarding my vehicle's warranty.

    This is the Low mileage car they bought from me. I got Kelly Blue Book value! Very fair.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Contact information.

    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.

    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!

    IF was up to me THERE WOULD BE NO STARS!…read more Very disappointed with my experience at Texas Auto Center. I have made my payments as agreed and contacted them before my payment was due because I was trying to change my payment schedule after being told by the finance team that after six months I could make one payment per month instead of bi-weekly. When I tried to do that, I was given a completely different answer. I was told the first month "does not count," that I would have to rewrite my contract, and that my payment would be around $780/month. None of this was explained to me when I purchased the vehicle or provided to me in writing. Instead of taking responsibility and helping resolve the issue, I was passed between departments while I was at work trying to get answers. My vehicle was even disabled while I was actively trying to communicate and resolve the situation. Customers should not have to chase down important financing information after the fact. Clear communication and accountability matter. I hope management takes this seriously and improves how they handle customers. please do NOT Waste your time there I had issues as of day one request to take it back the next day.

From start to finish, the entire process was smooth, professional, and genuinely enjoyable. My sales advisor, Tyler Thornhill, and his associate, Kyle Chowdhury, went above and beyond to make sure everything came together. They were knowledgeable, helpful, responsive, and never made me feel pressured. They truly went the extra mile to make this a great car-buying experience. One detail that really stood out was that I happened to be at the dealership in a friend's car because my vehicle was in the shop (at a non-Toyota repair facility). After completing the purchase, Tyler and Kyle actually drove my new Grand Highlander to my home for me. That kind of personal service says a lot about the people they are. I also want to recognize the New Car Sales Director, Will Taylor, who helped move the purchase along smoothly and was an easy and pleasant person to work with throughout the process. I can highly recommend Toyota of Cedar Park, Tyler Thornhill, Kyle Chowdhury, and the entire team I worked with. They made what can sometimes be a stressful process into a truly great experience. I'm very happy with my new Grand Highlander and with the way I was treated throughout the purchase.
