# About Carvana

**Carvana Co.** is a publicly traded online used vehicle retailer headquartered in **Tempe, Arizona**. Founded in 2012, the company pioneered an e-commerce model for buying, financing, trading, and selling used vehicles entirely online, with home delivery and its well-known multi-story "Car Vending Machines." Today, Carvana serves customers throughout the United States and has sold millions of vehicles through its online platform.

## Why Carvana Has a Page on WeDriveYouUnHappy

This page exists to document and organize publicly submitted customer experiences involving Carvana. Our goal is not to attack any company or discourage legitimate commerce. Instead, we seek to create a centralized repository where consumers, journalists, regulators, attorneys, investors, researchers, and Carvana itself can review documented experiences submitted by vehicle owners.

Every company receives customer complaints. What matters is how those complaints are handled. We believe that transparency benefits everyone by allowing patterns to be identified, encouraging accountability, and helping consumers make informed purchasing decisions.

This page may include:

* Customer stories
* Verified factual timelines
* Repair histories
* Vehicle-specific issues
* Corporate communications
* Warranty and service experiences
* Financial impacts reported by owners
* Photographs and supporting documents
* Publicly available corporate and regulatory information
* Contact information for corporate offices and customer escalation channels

Each story represents the experience of its individual author unless otherwise indicated.

## Our Review Process

WeDriveYouUnHappy is an information platform. We encourage submitters to provide documentation supporting their claims whenever possible, including repair invoices, inspection reports, photographs, correspondence, recordings where legally obtained, and other relevant evidence.

Content may be reviewed for compliance with our publication standards before it becomes publicly visible. Where applicable, factual claims may be linked to supporting documentation.

## Accuracy and Fairness

We strive to distinguish documented facts from personal opinions. Supporting evidence is identified whenever available, and corrections or updates may be made as new information is received.

If Carvana or any individual identified on this page believes information is inaccurate or incomplete, we welcome factual corrections and supporting documentation through our contact process.

Carvana Stolen Car Lawsuit: Known Cases and Legal Options

Carvana has faced multiple publicly reported incidents in which customers unknowingly purchased vehicles that were later identified as stolen. According to these reports, the common thread was VIN cloning—a sophisticated fraud scheme in which thieves replace a stolen vehicle's identification numbers with those from a legally registered vehicle of the same make and model. Because the fraudulent VINs often passed title and history checks, the vehicles made it through Carvana's acquisition and inspection process before eventually being seized by law…

I'm not certain whom runs /r/Carvana on reddit, but I suspect they might work for the big C.

I posted a comment to someone's comment about having bought a vehicle from them, saying that they should bring that vehicle to an independent mechanic to have it fully looked at, as the issues with my truck took a while to show up, and they continue to say it's not their fault.

I was almost immediately blocked from posting in that subreddit.

What's wrong with good advice?

If you listen, it's funny, at one point he tells me that he can not continue the call if I am recording the call, while acknowledging that they will continue to record the call.

Good thing we were both in Arizona, and it's a one party consent state. Also, we both concented to being recorded.

We discuss the process, the problems, the 9 calls they promised me which did not happen.

Recording and transcription on it's way.
