GBI should always read reviews here… I should always read reviews here before I try something new... They did send someone to inspect the car I was considering. Everything on the report was marked "good" except for things that I could easily see myself, like wear on the seats, and an alert light was on. He said he did a road test, but I don't think he did. As soon as my husband drove it, he noticed some shaking when applying the brakes, and the car "jerks" when it shifts while driving. That's transmission!! I specifically said in my request that I was concerned about transmission (it's a known issue in this vehicle, but obviously doesn't happen to them all). There are several other little things wrong, but those two are big. We bought the car, based on their report and my brief test drive. Off to the dealership next week, for a proper inspection.

GBI purchased a pre-purchase inspection… I purchased a pre-purchase inspection for $219.99 for a used car on 3/23/24 through Lemon Squad. Their website listed someone coming to look at the car on 3/23/24, almost immediately after I set up the appointment. It then was changed to 3/25/24 at 11:45AM at the car dealership. My salesperson called me multiple times on 3/25/24 because no one from Lemon Squad called the dealership nor showed up to complete the service. I called Lemon Squad to discuss and their response was placing my order on hold until I found another car for them to inspect. I stated they missed two appointments and I just wanted a refund. They stated my order/money would have to stay in an on hold status for 90 days at which time I could request a refund. They stated this language was in their terms and conditions which I didn’t read anywhere. I want a refund because services were never rendered. Update: On 4/16 I got an update they went to the dealership and the car sold and they couldn’t complete the inspection. Of course the car was sold, I took it to a a local mechanic who completed a PPI and I bought the car. I called Lemon Squad to explain and they stated sorry no refund because their rep came out and no car was available. Lemon Squad is the true lemon.

GBInspection missed countless issues costing us thousands We purchased a car from a dealer in Orlando after having a local inspector from lemon squad perform a $220 inspection. Within 50 miles of leaving the dealership The undercarriage faring broke loose and started dragging on the ground. After 100 mi the fan stopped working. We had to replace the fan motor control module and the fan motor resistor module. We also had to refill the freon because it was only 1/4 full. After 200 miles and every 200 miles of driving, the car literally loses a quart of oil. It is pouring out of the engine block. We had another mechanic take a look at the car and he noted someone tried applying RTV to the leak to fix it. This was a clear cover up by the dealer that the inspector was either incompetent and didn't see it or he knew the dealer and was doing him a favor. I asked lemon squad for a refund of my money because we would never would have purchased the car with these issues and was told that there was nothing wrong with a car when they did the inspection and everything must have happened in the couple of days between the inspection and us picking up the car. We are now having to put the car on a trailer and tow it back home to try to get it fixed. I had the mechanic run some diagnostics and they found countless issues and diagnostic fault codes with the car. I provided this information to lemon squad and simply ignored it. This company does not care about you or the results of their inspector's work. You're better off finding someone who doesn't work these crooks.

GBVery thorough inspection and evaluation… Very thorough inspection and evaluation of the auto in question. It was located on an internet auction and from the write up and pics it seemed very good and what i wanted. I had used lemon squad once before and was very satisfied. As it turned out thaere were a lot of hidden problems that the care had that wasn't foreclosed by pictures or descriptions. Lemon squad saved me from a big mistake! I highly recommend getting a lemon squad inspection and report if you can't see the car you are interested in in person. Five stars for Lemon Squad

GBVery Deceptive Company Very deceptive company. Their reviews are so bad, that they have to falsely show a schema markup on their google search results as having a 4.9 review rating from 1500 customers. But when you ask them where can you find these so called reviews they dont have an answer for you. Essentially, they added schema markup code to their website that fraudulently shows them of having stellar reviews. Only desperate companies use this dishonest tactic to fool unsuspecting customers. I called them out on it and they slammed the phone in my face. So now I have contacted google to let them know what they are doing (which is completely against Google's TOS) and they will get penalized as a result. I'm also doing some other things to let the world know not to deal with this company. Stay far away from Lemon Scam.
