They repossessed my car and then tried to double charge me to get it back. They don’t go by the rules, they make their own rules and they’re good at lying and they talk to you like you don’t have no knowledge of what you’re talking about. They still try to scam you. That’s why I’m looking for an attorney now.

I’ve been dealing with this company for about a year now and been current on my payments. Even though I’ve been late a couple times they denied me an upgrade even though I’m halfway paid off of my car. They tried to give me the crappy Ieast broke down car to trade in on top of having a pay 500 extra dollars. They rip people off and scamming people for their money. These people should not be in business. Once I pay off my car I’m done with them.

    Worst possible company to purchase a car! They prey on people who are convinced they can't get financed anywhere else. They sell you junk for high payments. Cut your car off when you are a day late on paying. All of their cars have kill switches and trackers which they do not disclose. Their extremely high payments are weekly not monthly. Thought it was suspicious when I filled the app out and the person told me which car I was approved for rather than giving me an amount I was approved for and letting me pick my own car.

    They constantly were cutting my engine off in random places for being a day late on paying. I eventually had to remove the device that allowed them to do that. The car they gave me was 7000 bucks and exactly two months after I got it the engine blew and I left it on the side of the road where it happened. They convince you that this is the only place who will approve you because of your credit. But take it from me. It's not! These days pretty much any car lot will approve anyone and they allow you to pick your car which will not be a piece of junk, cost an arm and a leg or get cut off every other day. I cannot stress enough that you should avoid buying from Carhop at all costs.

    This is my first time making payments on car. I should have went to a real dealership but I could afford it like most people that go to Carhop I’m pretty sure. I got my car just about a year now 2012 Jeep Compass from carhop In Tulsa, Oklahoma and I’m not really picky so I liked my Jeep. They changed the radio and tires for me. I should have gotten a diagnostic at first to see if anything major was wrong but I didn’t. I was expecting for them to keep up with their cars.

    Recently I’ve been having problems with the car mind you I have made every payment and on time. My car inside dash lights keeps flickering then it just did not start and it was jumping when I pressed on the gas. So I took it to one of their mechanics. They say it’s the crankshaft sensor. $400 for that. They held my payments for me. About a few days after I go try to get a wheel alignment he says I need ball joints replaced $1000 for that and carhop is not helping because it’s not covered under warranty. I said, "Ok can you push my payments back for I can be able to take care of it." They said NO because they already pushed my payments for the $400.

    So me to have been a good customer making my payments on time and even just having good customer service you know your customer is struggling and they don’t care as long as they get their money. I will make sure I tell everybody not to get a car from here because they do not care about their customers. They only care about coins.

    So back in March 2023 my 23 year old daughter purchased a car from them that is 15 years old and paying over $11,000... SMH. She’s young and this was her first car purchase so she is not aware of some of the process. But instead of them thoroughly explaining to her they sale her this car. And when I say everything wrong with this car EVERYTHING!!

    I don’t even feel safe with her driving it but I pray every day God watch over her.. There’s a big hole in the front drivers side by wheel,door locks don’t work properly, back passenger window won’t go up,all sensor lights on,had to be put in shop last month for a major repair that didn’t get fixed but put it off on something else because temperature light steadily go up,it has the old digital radio where you can’t even see what station to turn too, steering is terrible, sounds like it need calibers or rotors not sure but something in the wheels is squeaking,gas cap don’t lock spring in seats broke when you try to adjust seat it goes all the way to the floor and numerous other issues.. But little do they know she has a mother that care just trying to let her be a responsible adult and regret it with this purchase but they will be in arbitration when I’m done.. They ain’t never gone get over on my child like that.

    I’ve been with Car hop since 2018, I haven’t had much issues with the company however I moved to Nebraska and I am not within 100 miles of any location. I'm trying to upgrade my vehicle but still don’t have the best credit so car hop is my only option. However since I’m more than 100 miles away from any location, I can’t get a different vehicle, and I’m screwed till my credit gets better. Car hop needs more locations for people who need vehicles that don’t have the best credit!

    I Michael Eugene ** is writing this comment: Nicole is Gorgeous. I really appreciate how Nicole made everything right for me. I was upset at first because the vehicle I purchased was given me problems but Nicole came to my rescue like Wonder Woman. Nicole went over all the specifics with me and got me in a good car. Thank you Madam Nicole for going above and beyond for me and All your customers. Nicole is Amazing! Nicole deserves a raise. #TeamNicole #QueenNicole #NicoleForPresident

    I Michael Eugene ** is here right now 7/5/23 at Car Hop doing a trade in for the Buick Enclave I purchased but it had all sorts of problems so I'm now swapping it for a Hyundai Sante Fe. This saleswoman name Nicole is very aggressive and feisty. Nicole is making me nervous because she was filled with negative comments. I even had to ask her are we okay because she's making me nervous. Nicole feels like a Karen to me and Karens are very dangerous. Last week I had a pleasant experience with Jet and Matt, but Not so much with Nicole. Nicole's customer service skills sucks plus she not once smile during the whole process, making me very uncomfortable. I hope I never have to deal with Nicole ever again because this was painful. I believe Nicole needs a refresher on personality training. If you have to deal with Nicole, Good Luck. Respectfully Yours; Mr. Michael Eugene

    I bought a car at the end of 2022. Two splash guard was missing for the underneath. Within two days before Christmas a broke down. At first they tried saying that they wouldn’t cover under warranty Then later when I told him that I really had the car and didn’t even put 200 miles on it and it how are you broke then they fixed it. In February 2023 the engine blew when were still in the warranty and they had to fix it then. Then at the end of May the alternator went out. It’s still sitting because I don’t have money to fix it. This is the first and last car I am buying from this place. It is not worth the time or your money especially when they make you pay biweekly. A traditional dealership would only make you pay once a month or every two weeks.

    I purchased a car from the Sioux Falls Carhop in July 2022. within a day my check engine light came on and it was my o2 sensor failing. Reported this to CarHop and was told " they don't fix this." within a week my rear brakes had to be replaced and again I was told, "they don't fix this that's a maintenance issue". The brakes were metal to metal.

    Since then I have had electrical problems and have been told the car could shut down driving down the road. Any of these things could have been found if a PROPER inspection was done BEFORE selling the car. In was told by CarHop they don't have their own mechanics. Basically when you drive the car off their lot you are on your own and ALL repairs are your fault. DO NOT buy a car from them, You will be in for a bad time. By the way I had a mechanic do an inspection on the car and to fix everything wrong it would cost upwards of 10,000. The car isn't even worth half of what that would cost. If they want the car they can have it. But make sure if you buy from them have a mechanic do an inspection on it. Save yourself some grief.

    Been threatened to have payment by 6pm when I made a payment previous Friday, representative is rude and unprofessional and will not work with me. Was told it would be further escalation. I have paid them twice this month already.
