***********************. I drove the car to car lot and my ac was working very good ,took them whole month for engine to get replaced I would call them everyday about the status of my car , they replaced the engine with no oil and coolant.. they probably upset because I kept bugging the manager at the service department, was very rude and not professional at all ...Business Response

We stand behind our original response. The engine was inoperable at the time that it came in for service. Testing was done to determine that the engine would need to be replaced. The A/C was not touched while performing the engine work. When it was brought to our attention we did diagnose the issue and explained to ****************** that this is not a covered warranty item and provided an estimate of $250. We are more than happy to assist ****************** with this repair but he will need to contact our service department at *************.Initial Complaint

I have been having problems since I did my purchase with them. They call over 3x a day on the due date. Sent 3x text messages to my phone, and they sent 2 emails on the date my car payment is due. It doesnt even be late and this is done all on the due date. The contact is over the normal limits a collect agency is to even contact you. The problem I have is the company is refusing to take a payment on my loan. They have locked the website so I can not pay using my debit card online. They have locked the phone payment system as well. Not allowing me to pay my loan so they can collect more interest and fees by the payment being more late. This is a normal options to all paying customers that of the company. Then I brought to there attention the website has a major error also with trying to add a new debit card on there website. The debit card system dates only list expired years explain; the dates listed on the site are 2021 2022 2023 2024. I asked why do they have expired dates as an option, and was provided no type of feedback. My card expired 2028. So therefore I cant even add my card into the system to pay, if I dont do all this before 6pm. Then I cant pay using my card payment. I have advised this company not everyone works a regular 95 job some people work nights, and when I wake up from working a 12hr night shift I cant even payment my car loan because they are limited normal options that should be available to every customer per the contract I signed with this car loan. Then the account manger thats assigned to my account is very rude and nasty and unprofessional has no customer service skills are at all. I called and tried to pay my loan, and she refused the payment on the phone, I asked to speak with a manger and she refused to get one on the phone, she said she was the manger and I could only speak with her about my account, which is not the case, because I called and got a manger on the phone right after I got off with her.Business Response

I purchased a 2015 Kia ****** in February of this year from Byrider at **************** in ************** 78211.Ive had no issues with the vehicle itself (aside from it being stolen last month, but retrieved with minimal damage).The staff has also been excellent, however in April the paper tags expired. I called to see if the plates were in, they werent, so I was given a 30 day permit.Today they called me and told me that they do not have the title to my car and cannot sell me the car (AFTER having it since February), and asked me to bring it in and see about getting me into something else.The options I were given were horrendous. A 2011 Kia ***** 2012 Dodge Avenger or 2014 ***** Sonic.I was told I could not look at or get into any other cars on the lot and a refund is absolutely not an option.Many of the questions I had for the sales person he stated he could not answer and were questions for finance, but I was not given the opportunity to ask finance my questions despite asking to speak to someone in finance.Very upset that I am not being allowed a refund or the opportunity to get into something comparable.At this point (05/03/2024) I have paid $3,019.14 towards this car not including the insurance and am extremely disappointed in this car lot.Business Response

In the case of *******************************, complaint number ********, we have investigated the matter with the full cooperation of the franchise-owned Byrider. ************ filed a complaint regarding titling issues she has experienced.
************ purchased a 2015 Kia ****** on February 16, 2024 from the franchise-owned Byrider location on ****************** Drive located in ***********, *** The purchase is secured by a retail contract.
Byrider experienced unforeseen problems when they attempted to title the vehicle to ************. To avoid further delays, Byrider proposed a vehicle exchange in order to resolve the issue. *************** vehicle was exchanged for a Chevrolet Equinox.
Byrider strives to achieve the satisfaction of every customer. We apologize for any inconvenience the title issues may have caused, and we value ************ as a customer. We look forward to our continued relationship.Customer Answer

Complaint: 21665206
I am rejecting this response because:I previously filed a complaint on 05/06/2024 in regards to a 2015 Kia ****** that Byrider sold me, but did not have the title to which forced me to return the vehicle and get into something new - which led me to my current vehicle with them - a 2011 ***** Equinox. On May 13th, 2024 I went into Byrider and exchanged my last vehicle for the Equinox. Upon test driving the vehicle, the sales person, ****, told me that they check engine light WAS on but that it didnt affect the vehicle and a part had been ordered to fix it. The following day, 05/14/24 the service department called ME and stated they received a note stating the check engine light was on and asked if I had taken it to get looked at to see what the code was - even though I was told the service department was aware of it and it was being handled, to this date (07/21) the part has still not been placed and my car continues to shut off while driving. Despite all of this, thats still not the reason for my complaint. My plates expired on JULY 12th 2024. I have called a countless number of times BEFORE they expired to check the status of the plates and could not receive a response from them. I called again last Friday (07/19/24) and was told that even though I sent everything in to get a temp tag, they (Byrider) were told that the title company was unsure if they had the title to my vehicle and they could not issue out any temp tags. They then told me that if I get pulled over for expired plates to just tell the officers my car lot is working on it. Im extremely FED UP with this company and want my money back.

First off, The cars Byrider sells are collected by a 3rd party company off the side of the road & delivered to the Byrider lot. They have zero information on previous owners or quality of the car. They dont inspect them either. They sell them straight off the lot the day of delivery, After a mechanic installs tracking software that gives them exact location of your ***************** driven once its in your possession.I purchased a 2012 ****** juke from them back in September of 2023 and Ive already paid ***** into the car. A month later I had issues with the car not accelerating speed and stalling to take off. Come to find out that the transmission went out. Im still covered under warranty so I had tried to get it service multiple times but according to staff they had been backed up and didnt know when my car would be repaired: they gave me an appointment for January 15. Unfortunately my car went out 6 days prior to the service date. January 9th is when the car stalled. Byrider had my car in their possession since January. After calling and getting the run around since day one, I finally received my car back today 3/5/24. I paid ****** dollars just to get the car back in another hazardous and dangerous condition. The whole harness is exposed from having disconnect and reconnect wires to do repair's. My horn dont honk and air bags dont deploy. I did speak to a manager, she claims they are not responsible for the damages or condition it was returned in. I feel and believe they should not be in business taking advantage of people who are in desire need of a car and leaving them in a worst situation just to take our money. I really hope something can come out of this because I know Im not the only one going through this, Im just the only one willing to proceed with action and speak up to file complaints.Business Response

In the case of *******************************, Complaint ID ********, we have investigated this matter with the full cooperation of the franchise-owned Byrider and CNAC. It was found **************** purchased and financed a 2012 ****** Juke on August 28, 2023. After purchased, mechanical issues arose and vehicle was towed in from the side of a road. With this unscheduled tow-in, ****************** was able to inspect vehicle and found unit to have a transmission issue. Once work was approved by ****************, a transmission was ordered, which was coming from out of state and unfortunately took longer than expected. Upon receiving transmission, it was found the *** was not included with transmission and was ordered as well. The entire time, Management team were fully transparent with **************** and **************** understood. It is important to remind ****************, that a GPS is generally install in all our vehicles and in many cases help police officials find the vehicle quickly. This repair service was under warranty which customer paid only the deductible of $50 plus $62.70 for service fees. It is unfortunate that sometime between vehicle was on the side of the road and service being completed at Byrider, radio was stolen. A replacement radio was offered at customer's expense but was declined. Please note, Byrider strives to exceed customer's expectations and work hard to help consumers stay on the road. We truly apologize for any inconvenience and look forward to our continued business relations. Thank youCustomer Answer

Complaint: 21392070
I am rejecting this response because: that is not accurate. They did not offer me a replacement radio. They wanted me to make a police report when clearly my radio was not stolen it was just snipped because their mechanics couldnt reconnect any electrical wiring after installing the *** thats why they claimed someone try to steal just to cover up their doing. Also they are claiming that it was vandalized when being towed off the road is inaccurate because I waited and took pictures with the car while I waited for their wrecker services to pick up my car and was communicative with them from point A to b about the car. They never made it on time and my car was impounded because they failed to get there in a timely manner. They are going to say anything to cover up for their business but I do not agree with their response because they were never communicative, I waited weeks, 2 months for them to repair my car just to get it back in poor condition where the radio does not work the horn dont work, and air bags dont deploy. I almost got hit by someone coming into my lane and couldnt even honk to warn the other driver, thats scary and unacceptable that they sent me off in my car in the condition it was in. Overall, I just feel like they are a janky business taking advantage of people. They dont care, all they care about is getting their money wether the car is running or not. Then when reported they do the best they can to cover their business which keeps them in business. Sadly Im not satisfied with the outcome and the way they handle business.

I went to this Dealership in hopes to find a reliable & affordable car like they advertise on the site & call holding voice automated system. They refused to do a trade in with a fully paid off 2013 car; ****** miles with title in hand because the title was AZ not TX. I was the only customer there @ 2pm yet everyone who came in after me was services & out the door before me. I didn't leave till after 830pm when they close at 6pm. They ended up selling me a 2016 *** *** with ****** miles requiring full coverage. What they failed to disclose is that no insurance company will fully insure a *** older than 2020-2022 due to high theft rates making it impossible to get insured full coverage within the 10 day required period. I purchased the *** *** on 2/24/2024, paid $2000 down through a last chance finance company CNAC (which I didn't know was a last chance company & do not need that kind of assistance because I have a decent credit score of 630) ....& the next day the engine light goes on. I took the car to check the code @ Autozone and the P0420 code pops up (Catalytic Converter) coincidentally not covered under warranty and was not signaled while test driving a car in a ***** minute time frame. I was promised a fully serviced and checked car; that wasn't the case. They offered to waive the $50 service fee to look at the car themselves & if it was a converter issue I would pay OOP d/t not being under warranty. I was able to return the car without affecting my credit but the car release form words the document in a way where it seems I couldn't make payment and I have a REPO. I asked for documents showing I voluntarily returned the car and was told they have no paperwork in regards to that to offer me. They refused to refund me because I signed a contract. I feel this is fraud, false advertising, and scammed out of my money for a car that again had the engine light come on the day after my purchase & I returned back to the dealer within less than a week of my purchase.Business Response

This response is based on Complaint# ******** where ************************ concern was of a mechanical issue after purchasing a 2016 Kia **** Mechanical concern consisted of a catalytic converter. After reviewing account and with the full cooperation of Byrider and management team, it was found that ******************** purchased a 2016 Kia *** on February 24th, 2024. After purchasing vehicle, Ms. ******** priced around for full coverage insurance and found cost would be too high to insure or insurance company would not insure due to high risk. While customer had possession of the vehicle, check engine light came on and found it was the catalytic converter. At this time, customer contacted ****************** and found it was not covered under warranty. Since customer had just purchased vehicle, **********************'s ****************** offered to repair at no cost to Ms. ********. At this time, ******************** decided not keep the vehicle and was released from any further obligation to Byrider and CNAC. Due to the timing of this return and use of the vehicle, CNAC will not be reporting account to all three credit bureaus nor will a down payment refund be granted. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have cause and we regret losing our customer. Thank youInitial Complaint

I am rejecting this response because: we are going on 6mths I have been calling and calling and hardly ever get a response. *** in finance has been responding to me when service should be the one calling me. She has been the only one that has tried to help! I can't go on any longer without a vehicle. My other vehicle with them is about to go out also and I can't even have it serviced! Because my other car has been there 6mths! I can't be without any vehicle! I want out of this contract or another vehicle! This has put me in debt and has caused me to lose my 2nd job!

I am rejecting this response because: I've already signed all the paperwork that's needed to be made. Just like I waited 7 mths for a vehicle. They can wait for payment. For 1 they replaced the vehicle with something I didn't want and was told I had no choice but to take it. At this point I was highly frustrated and desperately needed a vehicle. The vehicle needed all kinds of work still 1 main thing was it needed breaks and they still allowed me to walk of the lot! Those vehicles are trash they should never let anyone walk off the lot with so many issues! I had to make an appointment when I left to have it serviced! And yes I was in an accident. And now they have to wait for payment! This dealership is horrible they should not be allowed to sell vehicles!

Byrider assisted ******************** by replacing her vehicle on April 6, 2024. Shortly after, CNAC was notified that the vehicle was involved in an accident. An insurance claim was processed through National General and the vehicle was determined to be a total loss. The deficiency balance, after the insurance proceeds were applied to the account on May 21, 2024 in the amount of $6,250.50, was $5,531.75.
At the time of loss, ******************** informed CNAC that she had another insurance that would pay off the balance in full. We have not heard from ******************** since. It is important for ******************** to communicate with CNAC to discuss her options.
CNAC will be happy to assist with a new vehicle or payment arrangements on the deficiency balance. Without contact from ********************, we are unable to assist her with either of these options. ******************** is advised to call CNAC at **************.
