Not up front pricing The whole point of the site is that you supposedly get a price that the dealer will honor when you take them your quote. Spoiler alert - they don't (honor the price). It is just another pile of people through the door for the sales guys. I am sure TrueCar is aware. Given the supposed model you would expect them to follow-up with consumers to ask if they got the promised price. But the dealers are the customers so they keep quiet and keep the checks coming in.

We were quoted a price on the True… We were quoted a price on the True Value website. We drove for 5hrs and rented a vehicle to get the car. When we arrived they said the car had another offer on it. This was after much communication with the True Value/dealership reps. So disappointed that Sam's Club would allow this sort of unprofessional behavior.

Twice used for car & pickup purchase satisfied The dealers almost always reach out to me even if they do not have the car i am looking for. I have used TrueCar for 2 searches and purchased from dealers who responded from TrueCar. There was a challenge on my search for my 2017 Ridgeline when Jenkins Honda (Florida) did not want to honor the TrueCar price and started adding on additional fees. We resolved the situation before I walked away. It was very frustrating and time consuming to say the least.

Don’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!!!

Emails & calls I do not like having car dealers calling, emailing or calling when I am only LOOKING/SEARCHING!! Additionally, why are you notifying dealers when I am only looking or searching? I had 6 calls & 6 emails from 1 dealership for 1 car I marked. I marked them so I could FIND them again to compare to others. Perhaps there needs to be an update to your software?
