      Complaint Type:

      Status:
      Answered
      I purchased a vehicle through Autotrader private seller exchange in April of this year. I paid for the vehicle in full via a bank wire transfer on 4/25/2024. After two months I still don't have the title, and I have been continually contacting AT and the private seller since the vehicle was purchased.No one from the Autotrader title department will return my calls or emails with info on the title. The only thing they tell me is they are waiting on the seller to return a document. The problem is the seller will NOT respond to anyone about the vehicle title. AT has been telling me this for over a month. Why have they not obtained the title and transferred it to me? On the Autotrader website they guarantee a clean title for vehicles purchased through the private seller exchange.

      They make it difficult to contact someone. A legitimate business does not do things like that! I signed up and I still can't communicate with anyone. It's a sketchy site! They also want to much information, just to communicate with someone. Bunch of BS!
