Carvana Sells Dangerous Vehicles with Safety Defects and Denies Warranty

Carvana delivers vehicles with critical safety failures—brake bolts missing, bald tires, open recalls—that their inspection process fails to catch. When customers seek warranty coverage the claims are denied despite the 100-day guarantee. Buyers face immediate safety risks and unexpected repair costs on top of the purchase price.

Online Car Marketplace Certified Inspections Miss Safety Defects

Online car marketplaces like Carvana advertise multi-point certified inspections but sell vehicles with immediate safety defects like worn brakes and tires, then deny warranty claims for conditions that should have failed inspection. Buyers purchasing remotely cannot independently verify vehicle condition before delivery. An independent third-party inspection verification layer for online car transactions is needed to close this accountability gap.
