Not a Sucker
GBTruecar is worthless How can anyone give this scam site more than 1 star, although 0 is more appropriate. You put in your requirements, they tell what dealers have regardless of whether it’s a good match or not. Then the dealer adds on all kinds of BS charges like $1149 dealer prep, $999 ceramic coating and my favorite nitrogen filled tires. Hello, air is 80% nitrogen. I just got a quote from Truecar for $38,760 for a car. The dealer added on $3,000 in BS charges - that’s 8% of the original quote. Absolutely worthless.

GBGreat experience with TrueCar True Car was the right balance between high margin no haggle options, e.g., Carvana/Carmax and time intensive old school option of walking car lots and haggling with sales staff to try and negotiate a good deal. The last car I purchased prior to this transaction was fully online, but was a new car. For used cars in particular, I searched all the major services and found True Car to be the best balance overall.

GBPricing transparency!! Not even close Pricing transparency!!! Until you are ready to buy and made arrangements. Suddenly the price goes up $5,000 from what was quoted. As dealer add market adjustment and other accessories fees. Totally inaccurate pricing info just to bait consumers.

GBThe car pricing is high and inaccurate This year I planned to buy a couple of cars to upgrade. I bought the first with the help of TrueCar. Now, trying to buy the second one, I started off not using TrueCar. Then, I decided to use TrueCar to get deals. Came to find out, the pricing on TrueCar is higher than the window sticker price. I also just realized that the first car I bought this year reflected with dealer's add-ons on the purchase order. Not sure what is going on, but it gives the impression that TrueCar is not on consumer's side trying to save money in car buying experience.

GBDon’t believe the TrueCar Cash Offer… Don’t believe the TrueCar Cash Offer service. They let “certified” dealers on their platform who offer prices within KBB traded in ranges so they look legit. Then when you accept their offer they drop the price significantly and start telling you the the new price represents the going auction price for your car AND they do drop the price without even looking it over. This bait and switch tactic is bush league. Never would have expected this from TrueCar!!!
