Unauthorized credit checks Unauthorized credit checks. Do not use this company please. There are so many other TRUSTING, RELIABLE, UP FRONT, and HONEST lending and comparison sites out there. Cars Direct will use your information, ruin your credit score, and throw it back in your face. Do not trust this company or recommend them to anyone please. Spread the word or you might be the next victim in a long line of unwanted, unauthorized, and unnecessary hard hits to credit reports. If there was a way to submit review with zero or fewer star ratings this would be one of them. Avoid at all costs.

Dealers do not honor the prices posted… Dealers do not honor the prices posted on your site. I will never use CarsDirect again. I find that bait an switch is rampant on your site and I am complaining to the New Hampshire Car Dealer Board and the State Attorney's Office.

Expect Unending Email Spam from Third Parties CarsDirect.com either sold or gave my name and email address to many spamming companies that have nothing to do with cars. In less than a week, I have received twenty-one emails from: Terminix, Dish Network, Andersen Replacement Windows, home warranty coverage provider, face mask seller, credit score company, roofing company, Sam's Club, Harry's Razors, Fidelity Life Insurance, ADT provider, Quicken Loans, and Mortgage News. I know that CarsDirect is responsible because I gave exclusively to them a shortened version of my name. All the spamming companies listed above used that abbreviated name in their emails to me.

Bogus Bogus claims. It's the same thing as walking straightforward into a car dealership. Nothing special. If you don't have what they're looking for you won't get what you're looking for just like a car dealership. All they do is shop your application around for a loan....LIKE A REGULAR DEALERSHIP.

when I first bought a car from… when I first bought a car from Carsdirect in 2010 it was a wonderful experience. No hugging , no negotiating no up-selling etc. I was given the address of a dealer to go (after paying $500 deposit) and simply picked up my car. Fast forward 10 years: the site was probably bought by some "car dealer group" which connects you with local dealers followed by endless emails, text and phone calls-another words: back to the old, dreaded ways of car buying process. Don't give them your contacts-just use the site to check the options, colors, specs, invoice pricing, etc of your dream car.
