CAR-MART A BAD REPUTATION

CAR-MART-JUNK

ConsumerAffairs Unaccredited Brand

America's CAR-MART does NOT participate in the ConsumerAffairs accreditation program.

WOW!!!!!

Car-Mart has a Bad Reputation. My first question is how can a used car lot buy here pay here kind of place stay in business ripping people off. Have you seen my last post of all the upset people loseing their hard earned money to Car-mart? Once you sign that piece of paper that junk is yours! I tried the normal routine of contacting the Missouri Attorney Generals Office, Consumer Affairs, and the Better Business Bureau. The Missouri Highway Patrols Office was contacted for Car-mart selling me a dangerous vehicle. The tires were bald, the Emergency Brake was inoperable and the Brake rotors were paper thin. (Bad Brakes) Nothing worked. This goes to show you Car-mart has a bad reputation.

Here are the Links again. Please read them before buying a used car from car mart.

CAR-MART BUY HERE PAY HERE

CAR-MARTS BUY HERE PAY HERE just sounds cheap! They throw the cheapest parts on your car just to sell it to you. Once you drive it off the lot its your problem now. They clean up the mud under the car and in the engine compartment to hide the flooded damage. I know because I found mud once I got home. Any place that advertises buy here payhere BEWARE and stay away. Used Car Lots are bad news. You are just buying someone elses problem. The maintanance on the vehicle has never been kept up to date such as, Timing Belt every 60,000 miles, coolant flushn fill once a year, fuel filter once a year, oyxgen sensor every 60,000 miles, Transmission Fluid changed every 30,000 miles, Sparkplugs every 2 years. As you can see Car-Marts Buy Here Pay Here is ripping you off.

2012 Mazda 3

Never trade in a nice car. You will never get it back. I traded in a $10,000 2012 Mazda 3 and a $500 down payment to show good faith. I never received a cent back. All this was taken in 3 months!This Mazda was well taken care with $600 worth of tires.

I read afterwards they take Farm Animals for trade ins!

  

  

CAR-MART A BAD CHOICE COMPLAINTS

Car-Mart A Bad Choice

 

If you are out looking for a dependable used car, DO NOT consider car-mart as an option. Believe me, I spent over 25 years as a ASE Certified repair technician. I found dirt and mud under the intake manifold plastic cover. It was hidden very well! The tires were bald  and the 3rd brake light was inoperative. I do not know how it passed a Motor Vehicle Inspection in Saint Joseph Missouri. The brakes were so worn down the Emergency Brake did not work! Thats scarry! The Check Engine Light Illuminated all of the time. So please remember car-mart would be a bad choice.

VERY BAD CHOICE

Once you sign their contract you belong to them! They say if you have any problems, we will work with you. That is a big fat lie. You will get at least 3 phone calls a day everyday reminding you when the payment is due. The GPS tracking device they installed on that vehicle will follow you every where you go. Your privacy is no longer private. One day late, they will send their goons out to demand the key back. It does not matter where you are at in a public place or your own home they will approach you. In public it will be very emberresing for you. So far you can see car-mart would be a bad choice. 

You can try calling the Missouri Attorney Generals Office but you will find out thats a waste of time. Missouris Consumers Affairs shows no inteest in helping you. The Better Business Bureau does not even have them listed. It just shows an "F"! 

A BAD CHOICE

Within 3 months, My $9,000.00 trade in and the $500 down Payment were gone! Car-Mart damaged my Credit Report for 7 years now! As you can see, car-mart is a Bad Choice!

If you still want a car-mart car I encourage you to read these VERY BAD REVIEWS FIRST!

PATTERN OF COMPLAINTS In March 2014, BBB advised America's Car Mart of continued concerns regarding the volume and the pattern of complaints received from customers. Repetitive issues in complaints involve the inability of customers to "buy here, pay here" as promised by the company. Additionally, multiple consumers complain about the business not returning phone calls, text messages or emails. The company submits a standard response to each complaint that due to privacy concerns, it will not discuss the matter with the BBB but instead will talk directly with the customer. However, customers indicate the company will not communicate with them as promised. BBB asked the company to advise what action it would take to eliminate the pattern of complaints. As of May 12, 2014, the business has not responded. Make sure to Read all links! Happy Car Hunting!

Car-Mart-Junk Review in Saint Joseph Missouri UPDATE

Have you ever wondered how you can find a reputable used car place. Such as a buy here pay here kinda place. I know most of these places store junk on their lots like car-mart of 2504 S Belt Hwy, St Joseph, MO 64503,(8162057077). They advertise, "Search a large selection of quality used cars with flexible financing options regardless of your credit history at car-mart.com.". One Review reported they took a used x-box and took it as a trade in. This may sound cool but if you think about it, who would accept used x-boxes for trade in? In my opinion, this sounds real low class and shady.These guys or ladies at this location, St.Joseph Mo., was given a lot more credit when I spotted a Mitsubishi I wanted. I did not have a x-box to trade to them but I used my Very Nice 2012 Mazda 3 which the previous 6 months I paid close to $9,000 for! I made the first $500 payment on time then called to let Car-mart of St. Joseph Mo. know the taxes and Insurance was way more higher than expected. I let them know, (Car-Mart of St. Joseph Mo. 64503 location) that I may be a little late on my second payment. That is when it all started and they showed me what kind of shady and low class they are. They called me 3 times a day for a week straight! I saw them stalking my home and every location I visited! Not only did they keep my $500 payment but REPOSSED THE 2010 MITSUBISHI AND KEPT MY TRADE IN THE 2012 MAZDA 3. Please visit my blog at, Car-Mart-Junk
