Ok I have read a lot of the complaints that are on here about CarMax and well after a month of working there I can truly say that they are a complete rip off! First they offer you a so called fair price on your vehicle. The reality is that they offer you way less than...

I am SERIOUSLY done with CarMax. Over the past 15 years, I have purchased 4 vehicles and have never had an issue as I currently experienced in my last purchase. A few months ago, I purchased a BMW 328i for a second vehicle. The BMW 328i did not have many miles on it...

Very true about CarMax being a huge scam for car buyers. In 2014 or so, I traded in my 2005 Camry for a 2012 Buick LaCrosse hybrid sedan at CarMax in Omaha, NE. Was told I had 5 days to change my mind bring the car back, get mine back and get a refund. I bought it on a...

I would like to inform you all of the horrible customer service I received from the business manager at the Tallahassee location. I spoke with the office there to cancel my warranty. He was ok, but seemed unsure of the knowledge he was giving me, as if he were very new...

Carmax review in Huntsville, Alabama: Un professional sales team
I have a pre-approval with 3,000 to put down and have struggled for 2 full days to get a salesperson to call me back. I already have a car in mind and on hold but the dealership is an hour south of me so id like to know 100% about payment amounts and what I will need to bring with me. If I call them and somehow actually talk to a sales associate they give me a line about how busy they are and promise to call me back very soon which never happens. I am so infuriated right now. I am a customer too and deserve 10 minutes of their time!
