I used Car Gurus in 2015 to buy a '12 Nissan Altima with barely any mileage and no accidents while being under bedridden flu. I was fortunate to find someone who flew from LA to KY on my behalf and drive it back down. It was very risky for me, but I'm glad to have taken the leap as I couldn't dare fly much less drive. Car Gurus earned my trust and I've used it a few times for vehicles. Thanks for being a Godsend

Very easy to use I appreciate this app, the best app if you're looking to buy a a new car, or any car really.

Receiving banner push notifications when all push notifications are disabled in the app is absurd and unacceptable. I'd like to keep certain notifications enabled and by violating this basic trust I have to block all notifications from your app at the system level. Do better

What a gimmick. I can get prequalified over n over by one of the lenders yet get denied a loan of any kind no matter Hornbach I have to put down. Then get prequalified again. What games these people play. Plus my credit score isn't too low. I say it's my income being discriminated against but hey won't say that. So they just don't give me reason. But keep prequalifying me. Odd.

Basic features are broken. You can't create a search for a car unless there's at least one car in your area matching the search, otherwise it disables the search button. Another issue is if I create a search and subscribe to email, it will spam me daily with "suggested" cars that don't even match the search criteria. It keeps checking the delivery options box on my search even though I didn't save it with it. If that doesn't sound right to you, you need to familiarize yourself with your own app.
