On 4/16/25 I worked with **** to transport my vehicle. He quoted me $780 for an operable vehicle and $880 for car not running. I accepted the $880 and he said the car needs to go in neutral and have keys and I would have pickup in a couple days. After weeks me calling for pickup no one was available until 5/15/25. I spoke with ******* and a truck came out. The car was put in nuetral but driver couldnt get it on the truck so he left. To avoid further issues I replaced the battery and left a message with ******* that the car is running so I wanted the original quote for an operable car $780. ******* never returned my call I called every other day for 2 weeks no response. Finally I received a call for pick up 6/4/25. I accepted but explained the car is running and I wanted the original quote (This was done moral because they claim the delay for the truck was due to my car not running). I was told they are losing money and cannot honor that quote. I explained that was not fair and they should honor the quote especially since I told them ahead I was paying to get the car running. So they offered me a $50 restaurant gift card. I refused because last car they delivered in 2024 they offered me $100 restaurant card if I gave a perfect referral that to this date never worked and they never replaced it even when they said they would. While the independence truck drivers were good. Nexus make promises and never hold to those promises. I am a disappointed reoccurring customer that received the same dishonesty from Nexus. Two times they provided false information and did not honor what they agreed to do. Bad business!!!! Still to this day no return call not even one to do right by their customer!!!!!!Business Response

We acknowledge receipt of the customer's communication through the ********************** and wish to provide further details regarding this complaint.
On April 23rd, the customer placed an order with ********************** LLC for the transportation of her inoperable 1992 Chevrolet Corvette from *************** to *******, AL *****. The requested pickup window was between April 29th and May 1st, and the customer stated that the vehicle was capable of rolling, steering, and braking.
Despite our agents' diligent efforts to assign a driver for this shipment, an unforeseen shortage of available truckers prevented us from meeting the desired pickup window. Nexus Auto Transport LLC cannot anticipate such situations and endeavored to secure the most competitive price from available truckers. A price of $925 for a May 13th pickup, utilizing a winch, was offered and subsequently approved by the customer. However, on the scheduled pickup day, the carrier notified our office that the vehicle could not be moved due to locked tires and non-rolling wheels, rendering the winch unusable for the pickup, hence the carrier cancelled the pickup.
On May 17th, the customer informed us that the vehicle was now operable, with the only outstanding issue being the front lights, prompting her to disconnect the battery. Our dispatch department initiated efforts to assign a driver for the pickup. Due to the ongoing shortage of drivers on this route, we were able to negotiate the pricing down to $950, which the customer declined, indicating a willingness to wait until the following week. In accordance with the customer's preference, our agents scheduled a driver for a June 2nd pickup at a price of $875. This price was higher due to increased compensation requested by the trucker for completing the shipment, which the customer had previously approved. The vehicle was successfully delivered on June 5th.
Nexus Auto Transport LLC is unable to retroactively adjust pricing. Furthermore, the vehicle's condition was not accurately disclosed at the time the order was placed.
As a gesture of appreciation for our customer's business, we are pleased to offer an updated Gift Card totaling $200, encompassing both her previous and current order.
Should the customer have any further inquiries, we remain fully at her disposal.
Kind regards,

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me ONLY if it is a gift use to be use for any type of purchase and not restricted to restaurants through a company. The reason being last delivery I was offered that if I provided a good review on goodie which I did and the gift card never worked. Nexus agreed to replaced the gift card and never did and it has more than a year now for that. I have attached email related to that gift card.

My vehicle was picked up on May 24, 2025. I was given a higher quote for the vehicle I was having transported, because it is a show vehicle. The vehicle had modifications, and I sent in all the proper ******************** My original quote was $900 and went to $1200 because of the mods. A third party driver picked up our vehicle, and was uncomfortable with taking the vehicle because of the modifications, he took it anyway. The vehicle was loaded & unloaded several times during transport. The vehicle was 100% drivable and operable before they picked it up. The driver somehow snapped the steering rack and pinion on my 2015 GMC Denali. I called the third party transport company, and nexus and the third party will not return my phone calls, and are unwilling to refund the money I now have to pay to have my vehicle fixed. I have video evidence, that the vehicle was operable on the day of pickup.Business Response

We appreciate the opportunity to address the concerns raised by our customer and thank them for bringing the matter to our attention through the Better Business Bureau. Customer feedback is extremely important to us, and we take every complaint seriously as it provides us with valuable insight to improve our service.
First and foremost, we sincerely apologize for the damage that occurred during the vehicle pick up process. At Nexus Auto Transport, we are committed to supporting our customers throughout the claims process to help ensure that any necessary repairs are properly reimbursed.
Upon learning of the incident, we immediately contacted the carrier assigned to transport the vehicle to investigate what happened and understand what is their plan to resolve the issue. In many cases, carriers prefer to handle such matters directly with the customer rather than involving their insurance. However, after several days of back-and-forth communication and the carrier's refusal to accept responsibility, we provided the customer with the carriers Certificate of Insurance (COI) and advised them to contact the insurance agency directly to initiate a claim.
Additionally, we have issued a full refund of the $280 deposit paid to Nexus as the broker, with the hope that it will help offset a portion of the repair costs. For full reimbursement, the customer will need to file a claim with the insurance company, whose information was provided on the ****
Should the customer require any further assistance or if they have any questions, we remain at their disposal and are always here to help.

5/15 to 5/16, 2025 I contacted this business on 5/15 to get pricing to transport four vehicles from two different locations, prioritizing one location over the other, as I know my needs were a bit involved. I would also need to drive eight hours to meet the carrier. So, being proactive, I get up at 2am on 5/16 to give myself time to try to meet a carrier (even though the company had not yet emailed me confirmation of a time for pickup). When the company contacted me about a driver being found, it was for the second location. A bummer for me, but ok let's make this work as I've already driven so far. I was 30 minutes from the location and asked the company to relay this to the carrier. The company told me it would be an extra $50 for them to wait. Wow. But sure, I'll pay it. I get to the location 30 minutes later and the carrier isn't even on site, the *** said he was at *******. So you're now making me pay to wait on the ***. The vehicle being picked up was one that was being restored and it didn't run. I gave the company these details the day before, but when the driver found out he said it wasn't in the paperwork. Guess what? He wanted and extra $100. Now I'm ******. I'm stuck between agreeing to pay extra, over the original amount, or scrambling to find other means of getting the vehicles transported within the amount of time I have left to be in the area. These people already have my payment information and the driver is threatening to leave. Very deceitful practices. I told the company to cancel this pickup and the one at the other location because they've now screwed up my whole day and I have to come up with other plans rather than be shook down for more money. Oh yeah, and the other location? An extra $100. I hope Nexus Auto Transport changes the way they do business: maybe give a price range instead of a set price, and be clear on any stipulations up front instead of coming up with reasons to charge extra while onsite. I regret I even contacted this place.Business Response

We would like to thank our customer for getting in touch with us through Better Business Bureau and are more than happy to provide additional details and address their concerns.
On May 15th the customer booked the order with ********************** LLC for shipping two vehicles, 2001 **** Ranger and 1985 GMC C10 Short Bed within the agreed pickup window between May 16th and May 17th. On May 16th the carrier was assigned for the pickup during the same day.
When the driver arrived at the pickup location, he discovered that one of the vehicles, a GMC C10 Short Bed, could not run. Upon reviewing our internal records, we discovered that the customer didnt inform us about the condition of the vehicle being inoperable. The driver was still willing to transport the vehicle but required an additional fee for additional equipment he needed to use to successfully load the vehicle, in the amount of $100 which was later negotiated to $50. Our company wanted to cover $50 from our end, but the customer decided to cancel the order.
********************** LLC reserves the right to charge a non-refundable cancellation fee in the amount of initial deposit as our services had been rendered and the carrier was dispatched to pick up and deliver the vehicle, but was unable to do so due to the condition of the vehicle not being properly communicated during the booking process.
Our company would like to offer a 50% refund in the spirit of good business practices if the customer accepts that.
Should the customer wish to accept our offer, we remain at his disposal.

We appreciate our customer for getting in touch with us through the Better Business Bureau and would like to express our gratitude. We are more than happy to provide additional information regarding this complaint.
On April 21st the customer booked her order to ship a 2008 **** Explorer from ******************* to ******* SD ***** between May 11th and May 13th.
Due to an unforeseen shortage of truckers on the previously mentioned route, our team took all necessary steps to secure safe transport. Unfortunately, truckers do not create schedules 3 weeks in advance and supply and demand on the route can change unexpectedly within that timeframe. The dispatch department was in the process of rerouting truckers and rescheduling shipments and did the best to find a carrier for the quoted price. After careful consideration of offers and negotiating them to the lowest possible, our team managed to offer a trucker for a higher pricing than quoted on May 15th to the customer but the customer declined that offer.
Our team continued to work diligently on our customers order to schedule a trucker for the vehicles pickup for the original quoted price, but the customer did not answer our calls or text messages when we wanted to schedule the pickup.
Should the customer still need her vehicle shipped, we would be pleased to continue working on scheduling the shipment.
Our company would like to offer a gift card in the amount of $50 for the inconvenience caused.
For any additional information, we remain at our customers disposal.

I had the worst experience with this company as their business practices are shady and dishonest. I was trying to get my Jeep Grand Cherokee transported from ******** to ******** due to an engine issue. Nexus Auto Transport quoted me $500 for transport and said that if the vehicle was immobile, there would be an additional $125 for using a winch. I was not sure if the jeep would move and not wanting to aggravate the issue I decided to add the winch fee. Based on my discussion with the representative I was also made to believe that if the vehicle could be driven the winch will not be used, in which case common sense would suggest that the winch fee will not be applied and refunded. I worked with the representative to arrange a pickup date. The vehicle was picked up and delivered on April 25th. When the vehicle was delivered, I was pleasantly surprised that the driver drove the vehicle off the trailer and into my driveway. I asked the driver if he had used the winch upon pickup, but he was not clear in his response. I checked the video from my dashcam on the Jeep and it showed that the driver drove the Jeep during pickup as well. Since I already paid a total of $625, I reached out to the company to get the $125 winch fee refunded since a winch was not used. The customer service representative replied that per the driver the winch was used during pickup. I responded that I had videos showing that the driver was able to drive during pickup and delivery. I provided the said videos, and the customer service representative said that the winch fee applied because the vehicle that picked up my Jeep had a winch on it even though it was not used. They offered me $50 as compensation for my trouble. I checked the company site and did not find any policy that mentioned winch fees or anything related.Business Response

We would like to thank our customer for getting in touch with us through the Better Business Bureau, we will be more than happy to provide additional information regarding the complaint.
As a company that prides itself on transparency, we would be happy to provide a clear explanation of the issues raised in the customers complaint.
The customer first contacted ********************** to inquire about a quote on April 18th. Whenever a customer requests a quote from ********************, we always ask if the vehicle is operable or not. In case the vehicle is not in running condition there is an extra cost that gets added on in order for us to assign a driver whose truck would be equipped to transport an inoperable vehicle. The equipment in question is a winch. A mechanical device that is used to pull an inoperable vehicle onto the truck by a wire rope. And the cost of procuring a truck with this equipment is slightly higher than if we were to get a truck without it. The customer informed us that his vehicle is not in running condition and we formulated the quote accordingly.
The price our customer was given and the quote that was needed in order for us to find a driver whose truck is equipped to transport his inoperable vehicle was $625. We, as broker, did our part and located the driver the very same day that the order was booked.
Whether the driver had to use the winch or not, the cost of hiring this driver was $625 and therefore we are not able to adjust the price retroactively. This was simply the price to transport a vehicle that we were told was not in running condition. If a vehicle turns out to be operable when the driver arrives to pick it up, it does not change the price. Any updates and price adjustments on the order needed to be made before the driver got assigned.
We hope this clarifies the customers concerns and we remain and his disposal for any further questions.
Kind Regards,
Nexus TeamCustomer Answer

I am rejecting this response because:Thanks for your response. I can see the game that business has been playing. They never mentioned to me that the fee would be charged regardless if a winch was used or not. I was made to believe that if the winch was not used the fee would not be applied as shown in the attached text message. Furthermore if I had mentioned that the vehicle was inoperable then the driver had no business driving my vehicle at the risk of causing further damage to my vehicle. Regardless of what the rating your group provides, I believe the business model followed by the company is very shady and Ill do my part to warn folks from doing business with this company.

We are thankful to our customer for their response and are more than glad to address their concerns. Customer feedback is very important to us, and we take every complaint seriously as it provides us with valuable insight to improve our service.
However, our position remains unchanged. There are simply two separate quote options, one for an operable vehicle and one for an inoperable vehicle. The quote for an inoperable vehicle is slightly higher because it includes a "winch fee", which ensures we dispatch a truck equipped to handle a non-running vehicle. Whether the winch is actually used or not does not affect the cost, as securing that type of specialized truck incurs higher expenses.
As the broker, we fulfilled our responsibility by securing a qualified driver to transport the customer's vehicle. We cannot attest to whether the winch ultimately needed to be used or not, or why the driver decided to drive the vehicle. As the person who is most qualified to make those decisions, we trust that the driver acted in accordance with what he believed was appropriate for the situation.
We would once again like to reiterate that the cost for hiring the driver and his truck was $625, and unfortunately, we were not able to retroactively adjust that amount.
We hope this explanation addresses the customer's concerns, and we wish him all the best moving forward.

On 3/22/25 I requested to have my car shipped from ********* to ******. I agreed to a pickup window between 5/1/25 - 5/3/25. On 5/1/25, I still had not received confirmation on a driver or pickup time for my vehicle so I called the company and was told that they were still looking for a driver and that there was no need to worry and that this was normal. I continued to follow up with the company over the next few days and was not given confirmation on a driver to pickup my vehicle until 5/5/25, however, the driver would not be able to pickup my car until 5/7/25. I was also told that the price that I was quoted would be $250 more than what was agreed upon. I asked what the company would do to compensate me for the delayed pickup, additional cost for my rental car and added expense to deliver my vehicle and I was told the only thing they could offer me was $100 off my next car shipment but they could not offer me anything on my current shipment order. I told them this was unacceptable and that even if they applied the $100 to my current order that would not account for the additional cost for the shipment of my car or the added cost for the rental car that would have to be extended because of the extreme delay. They still declined to offer any further compensation.Business Response

We would like to thank our customer for getting in touch with us through the Better Business Bureau. At Nexus Auto Transport, we are deeply committed to ensuring customer satisfaction. We strive to provide transparent communication and therefore we would like to offer a comprehensive overview of the situation.
On March 22nd the customer contacted ********************** in order to obtain a quote to transport their vehicle from Slidell, LA to The Dalles, OR between the 1st and 3rd of May. Nexus provided a price based on the historical evidence of the route, the prices the drivers accepted in the past on the same route that the customer would ********************** their vehicle on.
However, due to an unforeseen shortage of truckers on this route during the dates the customer provided, the search for the driver continued past the 3rd of May. The first available driver was located on May 5th and the schedule the driver provided to Nexus was - pick up on May 7th and delivery by the 12th. But the price the driver was requesting was higher than the initially quoted price. Nexus contacted the customer at that point and presented the offer that came from the driver's company - ***************. The customer was asked if they would agree to a slightly higher price offered by the carrier company.
With the customer's explicit and direct consent, we proceeded to dispatch the carrier company and their driver.
Had the offer been rejected, our team members would have continued to work on securing a driver for the originally quoted price. Nexus Auto Transport as a broker company, does not have the authority to make decisions on behalf of our customers. Our role is to present available options and ensure that our customers are satisfied with the choices offered.
We would like to apologize for any inconvenience caused, but it is worth mentioning again that the customer gave her approval and agreed to the revised terms of cooperation, and everything was done with her direct and explicit consent.
Should the customer require any additional clarification or support, Nexus Auto Transport remains fully available and committed to assisting her with any further inquiries.

I am rejecting this response because:
While I agreed to pay more to have my car shipped it was not as if I was given multiple good options to choose from. I was basically told either pay a higher fee or your car will not get picked up and I would have had to pay even more to extend my rental car while I waited even longer for you to find a driver. As you confirmed, my pickup window was between May 1-3, a driver was not assigned to my car until 2 days after the pickup window ended on Monday, May 5th and the driver did not pick up my car until Thursday, May 8th, and my car was not delivered until Tuesday, May 13th. Also, I was not told that you would continue to look for other drivers at the rate I was originally quoted. I was told that it was unlikely that a driver would agree to pick up my car at the rate of $1250, which is what I was originally quoted, which is not something that was said to me until Monday May 5th, 2 days after the pick up window ended.During the pickup window I called the company multiple times to check on whether or not a driver had been confirmed and they kept telling me that everything was fine and last minute confirmations were normal.
To say that my permission was given as a way to negate the fact that after being given over a months notice of my shipment you still weren't able to fulfill the order until after a week of the agreed upon time is ridiculous and bad business on your part. Your careless business tactics, unprofessionalism, poor time management and bad communication have cost me an additional $650 in car rental fees, gas, time off work and overall stress.
After all of this, the only thing the company bothered to offer me was $100 off my next car shipment. I will never do business with this company again and I will instruct all of my fellow travel healthcare workers to do the same.

We appreciate our customers response and are fully committed to addressing the concerns and complaints they have raised.
As we mentioned in our previous correspondence, we encountered an unforeseen shortage of truckers on the customer's route and that lead to an unexpected delay in pick up. It was our every intention to pick up the customer's vehicle during the pick up window she provided, but the first available driver that was located was offered to the customer. Unfortunately, being that this was the only available driver, his rate was much higher than what the drivers accept usually on the same route. We did our best to negotiate and absorb some of the cost, but we could only cover the price difference to a certain extent. After settling on the lowest possible price the driver would accept, Nexus had to call the customer to present the offer to her. That offer was accepted.
We would once again like to reiterate that Nexus Auto Transport, as a broker, does not have the authority to make decisions on behalf of our customers. Our job is to locate the driver, present available options and ensure that our customers are satisfied with the choices offered.
As a token of our appreciation for the business we received and in the spirit of goodwill, we would like to offer our customer a gift card in the value of $100 to be used in restaurants of her choice.

I am rejecting this response because:
The additional amount that I had to spend, outside of the additional $250 I was told to pay to ship my car, is more than the $100 food gift card the company is offering as compensation. According to the screenshots I have provided, I had to pay a total of $294.82 for a rental car since my car did not arrive until eight days after what I was originally quoted, guaranteed and had agreed to.The company continues to refuse to take any real responsibility for this situation and instead continues to place blame on to others, including myself at one point. According to the email sent to me by the company, Nexus Auto Transport advertises itself as a company that provides "all-inclusive customer care," and not just "brokerage services" like the company continues try to state to avoid taking responsibility. With that being said, in my opinion, according to the services that were advertised to me through email, the company website and over the phone, the company is absolutely able to be held liable for any mishaps that occur before, during and after the shipment of my car. After all, that is what "all-inclusive care" actually means.
While I can agree that unforeseen circumstances occurred, they could have been prevented if the company did not wait until the week of my shipment to find a driver to ship my vehicle, especially considering I placed my order over a month in advance.
Furthermore, the company stated that they did their best to absorb as much of the additional cost of the shipment, however, they still required me to pay a $100 deposit, which is conveniently the same amount they're offering as a reimbursement.
Lastly, based on all the information that I have mentioned throughout this discourse, I believe that a more equitable outcome might be achieved if the company refunded the deposit they received, which according to the documents I provided went to them and not the driver, and the cost of my rental car for the additional days it had to be rented which would be a total of $394.82.
I feel that is a fair and just reimbursement that fairly compensates me while simultaneously aligning with the company's advertised transportation services.

My experience with Nexus Auto Transport has been nothing short of appalling a textbook case of deceptive business practices, systemic disorganization, and a complete absence of professional accountability.I was quoted $1,600 to transport my vehicle from *******, ** to ***********, with a confirmed pickup window of April 2225. Despite receiving initial communication from **** at Nexus, who was initially absolutely wonderful and follow-up confirmation from (over a week after the pickup window) *******, that window passed without so much as a call, text, or update. Then, well after the promised dates had lapsed, I finally received a call informing me that the new price would be $2,200 an almost 40% increase with no justification, no apology, and no explanation beyond vague dispatch excuses, claiming the "market conditions changed".This is not a miscommunication. This is a deliberate bait-and-switch. Nexus allowed the agreed timeline to expire in silence, only to reappear with an inflated price and zero accountability. The strategy is clear: secure business under one number, delay until the client is backed into a corner, and then jack up the price. Its predatory, plain and simple.I work in a highly regulated, professional industry and would never tolerate or excuse this kind of negligence. For a company that claims to offer all-inclusive customer care, ******************** has proven itself incapable of even delivering basic honesty or timely service. This experience has eroded all trust I once had in their ******* expect a formal response, an honoring of the initial price IF the transport is completed, and most importantly, transparency and accountability for the practices being carried out under **** and Elliotts names. Anything less is an endorsement of unethical conduct.Consumers should be extremely cautious when dealing with this company.Business Response

The customer placed an order with ********************** LLC on April 18th, 2025 to ship his 2013 ******* ****** from **********, AZ ***** to **************** and indicated his preferred pickup window between April 22nd and April 25th.
After the placement of order, Nexus Auto Transport team communicated with carriers on this route and checked their schedules and availability. Due to an unexpected shortage of drivers on the route, because of the high demand present on it, Nexus Auto Transport did thorough reorganization and rerouting of truckers. After getting in touch with one of the carriers willing to transport the vehicle, Nexus Auto Transport reached out to the customer on April 30th to present an offer that our customer could either accept or reject, which he did at the end.
The price given to our customers are based on historical and statistical data on a certain route for the same vehicle type and dates. Whenever the trucker is willing to negotiate the pricing (offering a lower or higher price) we are obligated to present that offer to our customer. As the customer spoke with our dispatcher and rejected the offer, he provided us with the new preferred pickup window being between May 26 and May 31st.
We understand that this might have caused inconvenience to our customer and we would be glad to offer a gift card in the amount of $50. As the new pickup window approaches, we would like to assure the customer that we will consider only offers for the original quoted price.
Kind regards,

I am rejecting this response because:
Response to Business Complaint ID ********
I am formally rejecting Nexus Auto Transports response.
The companys explanation is disingenuous and avoids accountability for what was clearly a bait-and-switch tactic one that aligns with a disturbing pattern of similar complaints reported through the BBB and other platforms.
Let me be unequivocal: Nexus provided me with a written quote of around $1,600 and a guaranteed pickup window of April 2225. That window came and went without a single update or attempt at contact. I had to reach out for contact every single time. Then, on April 30th five full days after the final day of the promised pickup window I received a call with a sudden updated offer of $2,200, a 38% increase. No warning, no explanation, no accountability.
I have friends in the car business, and Ive already consulted with several colleagues who regularly arrange closed vehicle transport across the country. Every one of them confirmed what is now plainly obvious: Nexus intentionally underbid this shipment knowing full well what the current market demands are, then let the clock run out hoping I would have no other options when they reappeared with a last-minute carrier offer.
This is not an honest business model it is predatory, and unfortunately consistent with numerous BBB complaints and public reviews outlining nearly identical behavior.
Their explanation about rerouting and driver shortages is a convenient cover for failed dispatch practices and pricing manipulation. And the offered $50 gift card is frankly insulting a token gesture in exchange for wasting my time, missing agreed-upon dates, and attempting to upsell me under duress.
At no point was I offered meaningful resolution only excuses and a request to accept or reject their inflated price, which I was forced to reject because of their failure to meet their own terms.One of their supervisors called me to try and learn more about the issue and said that she was so committed to making it right that she would have someone from the dispatch team and reach back out to follow up, and of course that never happened.
Additionally, when ******* called me during the next proposed pickup cycle, he informed me that due to shifting market demands, the new price would now be $2,600 a full $1,000 increase from the original quote. He made it clear, both implicitly and explicitly, that the originally agreed-upon price was effectively off the table, despite Nexus having already missed the initial pickup window through no fault of my own. This further confirms that Nexus never intended to honor the original quote and instead used it as a placeholder to secure the booking before attempting to upsell me under pressure.
I reject every point in their response and maintain that this companys practices should be more heavily scrutinized. I urge the BBB to keep this complaint active and public. I have stated multiple times that I reject doing business with them, and would not be proceeding under any circumstance.

We would like to thank our customer for his response and are more than willing to provide additional details.
First and foremost we would like to express that our agents did provide explanations whenever they spoke with the customer which the customer confirmed in his previous response. Our team is diligently working on honoring the original quoted price, but as already stated, in cases of driver shortages market rates change and affect the quoted price.
After thoroughly checking our internal records, we discovered that the customer was never offered the price of $2600 like pointed out in the customers previous response.
We would like to inform our customer that the increase was solely based on the offer received by the trucker. Nexus Auto Transport has no control over the shifting market rates but lowered its fee to the lowest possible when negotiating with the trucker. We apologize for the inconvenience caused and would like to offer a gift card in the amount of $100.

NEXUS auto transport agreed on a price to pickup a car in ******* and transport to *******. They are a broker and they farm out to smaller entities in this case, *****************. Once they farmed my transport out, they came back and asked for more money above the agreed to price. They even went as far as to recover the Veterans discount of $50, which they offered. This is after they picked up the car from the dealer, loaded it, and then stated that the car was inoperable because they had to put gas in it. Really? The total price paid was $1,703 in the end, $1250 going to ********* and $453 to the broker. When attempting contact to the transport company, and NEXUS, all you got was the runaround. Someone finally returned a call from NEXUS, to inform me of the additional charges. The driver never called. Texts from the transport company made no sense and an intelligent person could see that they were looking for more money. If the vehicle was quote inoperable why were they able to drive it on the transport vehicle and off again if all it needed was gas? Pure scam, NEXUS told me the carrier wanted $170 for gas? In a small gas can provided with the vehicle. Why didnt they just leave the vehicle at the dealership if they thought there was a problem? Why did they not contact me and state they couldnt do it if the vehicle was inoperable ? Because it is a scam. There are a plethora of complaints similar to my own on BBB site. Look for yourself. Do not use either of these companies. I dont have the receipts because none were provided.Business Response

We would like to thank our customer for reaching out to us through the Better Business Bureau. We appreciate the opportunity to provide further details concerning the complaint.
Regarding the vehicle transportation booked with Nexus Auto Transport LLC on April 21, 2025, for an operable vehicle with a preferred pickup window between April 23rd and 25th, we assigned the carrier ***************** to handle the pickup on April 23rd. Upon arrival at the designated location, it was discovered that the vehicle could not be loaded due to a lack of fuel, rendering it inoperable at that time.
During the call with our agent on April 25th, our agent clarified to our customer that the driver incurred an additional expense of $235 due to the necessity of manually adding fuel to the tank each time the vehicle needed to be repositioned on the trailer because of other loads. As per our records, the customer agreed to cover this additional charge after receiving a detailed explanation. We would also like to draw the attention to Section 7 of the Nexus Auto Transport LLC Terms & Conditions, which outlines the requirement for vehicles to be in good working condition, unless otherwise specified, and to have between 1/4 and 1/2 tank of fuel prior to transport.
Should the customer require any additional clarification or support, Nexus Auto Transport LLC remains fully available and committed to assisting him with any further inquiries.Kind regards,

I am rejecting this response because: this response is in accurate. It does not address the fact that if the transport company or the transporter thought there was an issue, they should have contacted me and opted to leave the vehicle at the dealership. In response to the transport companys policy regarding the fuel, I dont remember being given any instructions verbal or written regarding the tank being half full or empty. If this was in fine print or half mentioned on the phone I dont recall seeing or hearing anything in regards to this. Again, if there was an issue, they should have left it at the dealership and called me, and if there was something in there rules regarding the fuel, once again leave the car at the dealership and call. Dont call after the fact and try and extort additional money. Also, if there are people i.e dispatchers or drivers who cannot communicate or understand what you are trying to communicate, then I cannot be held responsible for that. Furthermore where did they come up with that figure. Thats a lot of money to pay for gas in a 1 gallon gas jug? ( I still have it) Show me also how many times the vehicle was moved on and off the transport to where it would cost that much money? Weird? So, it does not make any difference to me what else you might offer as an excuse. The companies complaint history speaks volumes. Again, if on pickup there was a problem, you should have sorted it at the dealership with me or the dealership ********* and not taken possession of the vehicle. We are done here.

We want to thank our customer for their response and are more than happy to provide additional details regarding their concerns and further details about this shipment.
When the customer called to place an order with **********************, the vehicle was listed as operable but when the driver arrived at the pickup location he noticed a container under the hood for the gas to be put in so the vehicle could run. Since this discovery of the gallon, the driver needed to put additional effort and time to manually fill the plastic container every time he needed to reposition the vehicle on the trailer so he could deliver other vehicles he had as well. Repositioning of the vehicle happened three times in transit, in *******, ************** and **************
The carrier company informed us they were in contact with the customer at every time of repositioning to inform about it happening as it wasn't safe for the driver to drive the vehicle in that condition. The carrier company was willing to transport the vehicle regardless of its condition just to make the customer satisfied and for the vehicle to be delivered on time.
Unfortunately, the carrier company doesn't have the receipts for the gas. The driver took a picture of the plastic can under the hood which we attached for the customer's reference.
We would like to emphasize the fact that Nexus Auto Transport is dedicated to providing exceptional service and is constantly looking for ways to improve.
As a token of customer's business we would like to provide a $50 Gift Card for the restaurant use.

I am filing a formal complaint against Nexus Auto Transport for the mishandling of a recent vehicle transport service and their failure to follow up on a serious issue I reported.I contracted Nexus Auto Transport to ship my brand-new *** X7 from ******, ******** to ******, *****. The vehicle was picked up with 6 miles on the odometer, but upon delivery, it had 138 miles, indicating it was driven 132 miles without my knowledge or consent. Additionally, someone (identified as ******) had connected his personal phone to the vehicles infotainment system, which further confirms unauthorized use.There were also visible scratches on both key fobs, which is unacceptable for a brand-new vehicle. To make matters worse, the car was delivered to the wrong address (******, ** instead of *******,**) forcing me to travel to a different location to retrieve it.I contacted Nexus Auto Transport on April 7, 2025, and followed up again a week later after receiving no meaningful response. A representative acknowledged my complaint and claimed they would reach out to the carrier and follow up with me. As of today, no one has contacted me again, and the issue remains unresolved.I am extremely disappointed by the lack of accountability and poor customer service. I am seeking the following:A formal investigation into the unauthorized use and mishandling of my vehicle.Compensation for the added mileage, damaged key fobs, and inconvenience.Assurance that steps will be taken to prevent similar incidents in the future.I appreciate your attention to this matter and hope the BBB can assist in facilitating a resolution.Business Response

Thank you for reaching out to us through the Better Business Bureau and sharing your concerns regarding the transportation of your vehicle. We want to assure you that we take your feedback seriously.
We understand that you placed an order on March 31st, 2025, to transport your vehicle from ******, **, to *******, **. We assigned a carrier, TTA Transport ***** for the pickup on April 2nd. The vehicle was successfully picked up on April 2nd and delivered on April 5th.
On April 7th, you informed us of suspected damage, specifically scratches on both key fobs, and a suspected additional 132 miles on the odometer. You also mentioned that someone named ****** connected his phone to the vehicle's infotainment system and informed us about a change in the delivery address.
We immediately contacted the carrier, TTA Transport ***** to investigate these concerns. They informed us that they would follow up with the driver, Suhrob. They also clarified that the phone connected to the infotainment system did not belong to the driver. According to the carrier, they contacted you before delivery, and you suggested a meet-up location with the driver. Regarding the suspected damage, the carrier stated that they were not informed of any issues, and the Bill of Lading had no damages noted. The carrier informed us the driver drove the vehicle solely for loading and unloading purposes.
For your reference, we have attached a copy of the Bill of Lading. It is crucial to note any potential damage on this document during the vehicle inspection at the time of delivery. We understand the vehicle was delivered during daylight hours, providing suitable conditions for a thorough inspection.
We also requested photos of the odometer at the time of pickup, which you mentioned having, but we have not yet received them.
In the event you wish to pursue a claim, we have attached the Certificate of ******************** as your vehicle was insured during the transport.
We are here to address any further questions you may have and provide any additional information needed. Please feel free to reach out to us directly to discuss this further.

I am rejecting this response because:I respectfully reject their response for the following reasons:
Timing of My Call: I contacted the carrier just minutes after picking up the car to report the discrepancy in the mileage, not on April 7th as they claimed.
Pick-Up Location Misstatement: It is incorrect to say we agreed on a specific pickup location. The driver called me and said he was by my house in *******, **, but when I went outside, no one was there. Upon checking the location he sent me, I realized he was actually in ******, **. When I asked him to come to my house as initially expected, he said the car was already offloaded from the trailer.
Vehicle Condition on Delivery: While no exterior damage to the car was noted at the time of deliverywhich was my primary concernI later discovered that both key fobs were scratched, something I did not expect or appreciate.
Odometer Reading: The bill of lading was missing a key detailthe odometer readingwhich was completely left blank. Recording the mileage is part of the carriers responsibility and omitting it is both unprofessional and concerning.

We appreciate our customers response and are fully committed to addressing the concerns and complaints they have raised.
As we mentioned in our previous correspondence, the Bill of Lading, which serves as the official cargo manifest, indicates that the vehicle was delivered without any visible damage. It is crucial to carefully inspect the vehicle upon arrival and record any damage on this document at the time of delivery.
We also want to note that despite multiple attempts to obtain photographs of the odometer readings before the vehicle was picked up, from both your end and the dealership, we were unable to secure these images. While we have made every effort to address this situation with the information currently available, further steps require this additional data.
The carrier did not take pictures of the odometer because he is not required to do so.
We have already provided you with all the necessary documentation to initiate a claim with the insurance company. Please understand that Nexus Auto Transport is not authorized to file claims on your behalf or represent you in any legal or claim proceedings.
As a token of our appreciation for your business and in the spirit of goodwill, we would like to offer you a 10% discount.

On January 14, 2025, Nexus Auto Transport arranged for MK Transportation, LLC to transport my brand-new vehicle (2025 Genesis ****** purchased from ******* of Aurora in ******, **, to *******, **. The vehicle was delivered on January 18, 2025. I paid $899 total $299 to Nexus Auto Transport and $600 to MK Transportation at delivery for professional, insured transport.Upon delivery, the vehicle was extremely dirty, preventing full inspection. I drove it home but did not drive it again until February 23, 2025, at which time I discovered significant dents and scratches on the roof, consistent with damage caused during transit. The carrier had already unloaded my car prior to my arrival, so I could not see its positioning on the transport ************ taken at pickup from the dealership show no damage. Photos taken at delivery of the vehicle clearly show the damage. It is evident the vehicle was damaged while in MK Transportations custody. You can access and review all photos via the *** under "see inspection photos and details: ..." highlighted in yellow. All pickup photos show no damage to the vehicle. Photos 1 and 43 of the delivery photos display damage to my vehicle. At the time of booking, Nexus Auto Transport assured me my vehicle would be fully insured, but no insurance documents were provided prior to shipment. After discovering the damage, I requested and received a Certificate of Insurance and Bill of Lading. I filed a claim with MK Transportations insurance provider, but for over two months I have been told the claim is still under review, with no decision or timeline *********** vehicle was brand new and had no damages at pickup.

Nexus Auto Transport assigned a carrier company to transport the customer's vehicle on January 14th. The vehicle was delivered on January 17th and the damage was reported to Nexus Auto Transport on February 23rd. Over a month after the vehicle has been delivered. However, we promptly contacted the carrier to report the damage to them and to obtain Bill of Lading (BOL) with the pictures from pick up and delivery so they can be compared.
Although it took longer than expected to obtain the **** after numerous follow *** with the carrier, we finally received the document on the 5th of March and shared it with the customer. ******************** also shared the Certificate of Insurance (COI) with the customer on that same day and advised her to contact the insurance company in order to officially file a claim.
During the internal inspections of the claim by the insurance company, Nexus Auto Transport has no active role and has no way to influence the speed of the process or any aspect of their decision. If the customer has difficulties in communication with the insurance company or feels like the process is taking too long, Nexus would strongly advise her to request to speak with someone from the management of the insurance company and share her concern with them.
We would also like to point out that Nexus, as a broker, has no active role in the physical transport of the vehicle and, therefore, cannot be held liable for any and all claims and damages arising out of the actual transport of the vehicle. That responsibility falls on the carrier company that physically transported it. Therefore, Nexus is not required to compensate the customer for the cost of her repairs. That is something that will be reimbursed to her through the insurance company once the claim process is completed.
Nexus is, however, always there for the their customer, assisting with the communication with the carrier. If there is any additional documentation or information that the insurance company is missing, Nexus would gladly contact the carrier again to request them if it might help expedite the process.
We realize that this has been a long and stressful process for the customer and ******************** would like extend our apologies for the inconvenience this has caused. We remain at the customer's disposal for any further assistance or questions she might have.

I am rejecting this response because I paid for a service facilitated by your company and relied on your selection of a carrier, based on your assurance that the vehicle would be insured during transit. Now that my vehicle has been damaged, Im being given the runaround without any remedy or support.
As the dispatcher, you were responsible for hiring the carrier. I had no role in selecting or vetting their insurance coverage, and therefore, I am seeking your direct assistance in resolving this matter. Specifically, I need you to contact the carrier and/or their insurer to determine whether any further information is needed from their side and to provide a clear update on the status of the claim.
At this point, I have not received any meaningful communication or resolution. I am requesting your active involvement in securing a formal response from the carriers insurer and ensuring a timely remedy.

I have already received the Certificate of Insurance (COI) and submitted a claim to the carriers insurance company. Unfortunately, the claim was denied on the grounds that their policy does not cover damages sustained during private vehicle transports. As a consumer, there was no way for me to independently verify the limitations of the carriers insurance policy beforehand, and I was assured that my vehicle would be insured during transport.
I have contacted the dispatcher/broker multiple times seeking assistance. Although I was told they would reach out to the carrier and follow up with me, I have yet to receive any meaningful update. Ive called twice in the past week alone. It feels as though, now that they have been paid for the service, they are unwilling to take further responsibility in helping resolve the issuedespite being the party that assured me my vehicle would be covered.
At this point, I am seeking the assistance of both the BBB and the dispatcher/broker to help hold the carrier accountable for the cost of the repairs, which is outlined in the original complaint. All relevant documentation and supporting details were submitted previously for your review. The dispatcher/broker continues to provide generic responses and resubmit documentation that has already been shared. They have not offered a viable solution.
It is my sincere hope that this matter can be resolved amicably and without the need for legal action.
