I am rejecting this response because:
I was treated unfairly I have a recorded call stating that I would be reimbursed **** or rental fees putting my car and the shop and not getting it back they didnt ask me if I wanted the vehicle or anything I do understand they feel the car was no longer fixable but I was told this same thing before when it was and services several time now Im forced to extend a rental I cant even afford which dipped into money that was reimbursed back from the dealership . I cant purchase a car because of the loan still on my credit as we speak ..

The customer is complaining about mechanical issues with her vehicle. The customer initially purchased her vehicle from Carfect on October 24, 2023. Shortly after the purchase of the vehicle, the customer brought the car in as it was not starting. Carfect replaced the battery under the 30-day warranty. On or abour November 22, 2023, the loan was transferred to ********************. The customer made an appointment with *********************** ****************** on June 27, 2024, but appears to have missed her July 8th appointment.
The Customer brought the car into *********************** ****************** on January 31, 2025. The ****************** diagnosed the car and let the customer know the repair cost. ********************* offered to loan the customer the money to cover that repair and to pay off her previous loan.Customer accepted and the repairs were made.
The customer brought the car in again on February 26, 2025, complaining of mechanical issues. Carfects Service team let her know that if the issue was related to the January repairs, they would help her out with them. However, the issues were not related to the previous repairs and so the Customer was given a quote as to how much the repairs would cost.

On Thursday, February 20 2025 at around 3:30 pm. I picked my vehicle up after redeeming the vehicle from repossession. Upon acquiring the vehicle, I noticed my $800 sound system was damaged and no longer worked and appeared as if someone attempted to take it out the vehicle. I alerted the staff at the dealership. I was told that they have no idea who was responsible. I was told to make a police report but they could not give me any other information. They claimed the damage could have been done by the third-party towing company. However, they refused to give us any information to that company. The vehicle sat in a lot owned by Carfect, since the day it was repossessed. Their staff also mans the lot and handles the vehicles.Business Response

Dear Better Business Bureau,I want to formally file a complaint against CARFET for abusive practices that caused me direct harm and **************, [2/19/2025], I received a call from CARFECT regarding my monthly payment. My automatic payments never worked properly, so I always had to pay manually. This time, I forgot the due date, but planned to pay once I got their message.The CARFECT representative was rude, and I could barely hear her at the gym. I told her I didnt have my card with me at that moment. However, around 6:30 PM, I found my car locked without warning. Had they informed me, I would have taken action. When I called to resolve the issue, the office was already closed, forcing me to leave the car in the gym parking lot and walk home in freezing temperatures. This triggered a panic attack, and I am still recovering as I write this.Additionally, my contract is in English, which is not my first language. I signed a document stating I understood it, but the salesperson assured me verbally that the *** was only for theft recovery, never mentioning that they could disable my car for late payments. This lack of transparency is unacceptable.Since purchase, my car has had an engine issue that I reported immediately. Since I take medication at night is impossible for me to drive during the morning and they just have mornings appointments. When I finally took it in, they confirmed it was the turbochargerthe same issue I originally reported. CARFET refused responsibility because 30 days had passed, even though the problem existed from the start Ive sent an email and Ive been ignored. I demand:1.Immediate reactivation of my vehicle before payment. I will not pay until the car is unlocked.2.Compensation for leaving me stranded in extreme weather.3.Responsibility for the turbocharger repair, as I reported it upon purchase.I expect an immediate response. If no resolution is provided, I will take legal action.Business Response

The customer is complaining about the use of the starter interrupter and customer service. I looked at the records and listened to the phone call for the only disable that I see for this vehicle. Our representative did not behave in a rude manner. She simply asked him for payment and when he told her he should be on autopay she explained that autopay was cancelled in December of the previous year due to the payment being declined. The customer then told the representative goodbye and hung up on her.
I also reviewed the customers contract and saw that he signed our Iteran agreement which explains the terms and used of the starter interrupter on the vehicle. The customers vehicle was disabled pursuant to this agreement ay 4:34 pm on February 19, 2025. We received confirmation from Iteran that the vehicle had been enabled at 6:37pm. We are looking into whether there was any issue with the enabling of the vehicle.

I am rejecting this response because:
Its good that you have the recording; however, whether the agent was rude or not seems to be a subjective matter for you.
This does not resolve the issue with the turbocharger, which has not been repaired.
The vehicle was not activated until the next day, around noon, when I made the payment. I also had to call my insurance provider to jump-start my car because the battery had died.
As I explained in my previous message:
The salesperson did not explain anything about deactivation via GPS. She verbally stated that it would only happen in case of theft.
You mentioned a contract, but I have not received a copy, so I dont know what it says. I have requested it at least twice, and I am still waiting.
Additionally, I brought up the issue regarding the turbocharger repair, the noise it made at the time of purchase, and the conditions under which I bought the vehicle. However, the available appointment times for service are not convenient for me. If necessary, I can request a report from my doctor to support my case.
Are you going to repair the vehicle, or do I need to file another complaint?
If you are going to send me the contract, I need it in Spanish. Even though we are forced to waive our right to have a contract in our native language, I need to understand what else I am agreeing to with this company.
If I ended the call with your collections agent, it was because I couldnt hear them properly. In fact, I had trouble understanding at first why they were calling because I was at the gym. I told them I would call back and then hung up.
It is unfortunate that I have to resort to complaints like this to get a response from Carfect.
Therefore, I still require:
1. Compensation for having been left without a vehicle in extreme cold, without prior notice.
2. That I be notified before the vehicle is disabled if this happens again.
3. That the warranty be honored, as the scheduled appointments since November 7 were for the same issue.
4. That the contract be sent to me immediately via email.
5. An explanation of whether there is an arbitration process in case my requests are not fulfilled.

October 2024 i went to Carfect and purchased a 2016 cx5 maza. While getting a test ride with the maza the dealer and I noticed the heater was not working properly. With the dealer who sold me the car i made an appointment with their auto shop to get it checked out. I still purchased car and took it home. Less than 24 hours my engine light came on. I called the dealership and informed them of the problem. For over a month i have given the dealership my vehicle twice to fix my engine light problem. But the engine light came on everything i left the auto shop. I became frustrated and depressed at this situation. I called Carfect stating i don't want this car. and the told me that they fix the problem even though my engine light was still on. So i gave up trying to get my car fix. 2 months later my engine oil is going to the coolant and no auto shop will not try to fix the problem. Today 2/15/2025 i called Carfect and told them i don't want this car and the sold me an bad vehicle. I'm bringing the vehicle to them now.Business Response

From our records, I show that the customer complained to our Collections staff about mechanical issues with her vehicle on October 3, 2024.On October 8, 2024, she dropped off her vehicle at our service center for her scheduled appointment. Our service team made some minor repairs to the vehicle and ordered some parts. The vehicle was returned to the customers husband on October 9, 2024. When the parts arrived on October 14, 2024, we called her and scheduled an appointment for October 21, 2024. The customer brought the car for the appointment and the car was ready the same day. She once again came in for a service appointment on October 30, 2024, we ordered parts and returned the vehicle to her. We called her on November 4, 2024, and scheduled an appointment for November 7, 2024. The customer did not come in for that appointment. She again complained about mechanical issues on January 22, 2025, and we scheduled an appointment for January 27, 2025. Once again, the customer did not come in for that appointment.

I am rejecting this response because: why do I have to keep missing hours of work over and over because I have no transportation or a reliable vehicle. When the vehicle should have been fix the first time with everything and I shouldnt had been denied my warranty after I had warranty, Business broke contract of agreement of 3 months and I had been call the business all nov 2024 and December 2024 when they promised to help switch vehicle so I had something reliable for my children to be safe. I havent had a call from them telling me if they finally got a vehicle for me.
until first week of January I when in person and they had nothing to say and didnt know who to blame because they couldnt help me at all. So at that I was left without and option to keep driving the vehicle. Unfortunately management didnt help to either get me into something or fix vehicle because technically I still had warranty that they denied me and that I had to pay out my pocket because why pay for something that should been fix for customers to drive safe not something that can leave you in the street on low temperatures.
the vehicle broke down already so the car was taking to get drop off.

I am rejecting this response because:
Here is the Proof of me actually taking action after speaking with the sales person about the vehicle and the way they told me they didnt see nothing is absolutely unacceptable and I have a paper of proof me dropping the key with an envelope letting them know I had a leak on the vehicle. They decided not to help at all after the fact it was explained and told me there is no warranty. The guy at service, at this point all service was denied even when I did schedule an appointment for them they told me that I will have to pay and took it to a cheaper service place. I also have that envelope that shows that when I drop off my car Im written says leak please check. I had to send attachment separately. So if someone can request the proof of paper work or inspection I can send them.

I am rejecting this response because: regardless of you saying that you offer the service when youre advisor pretty much didnt follow the rules of the policy and denies service at that point if the service is being denied under warranty, somebody wouldnt be able to afford any service because for the same understanding, the vehicle have three months of warranty driving out that lot, but the service was denied under warranty. at this point I believe the employees was in train the proper way and cost all types of communication issues with the company and the customer which that is more like a personal issue with employer and employee property trained would have been good for the employee. other than that Service was denied at the time of the service. I am attaching documents of the vehicle that got inspected and diagnosed around the same time of taking it back to get serviced and looked at and wasnt properly checked and diagnosed at Carfect auto shop.

The customer is complaining about being treated rudely by our service department and mechanical issues with the call. We have had a managerial change at the ************** location which we believe should prevent issues like what the customer experienced from happening in the future. We are reaching out to the customer to see if we are able to get him in for repairs on the vehicle or switch him into another vehicle.
