Revdex.com: I have reviewed the offer and/or response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted] , and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.By law, a company is obligated to send notice of default and allow thirty days to cureThis never happened!! Secondly, a company is harassing me and it is against the law so I have contacted an attorney regarding both issuesLastly, I asked for a payoff three times...first in September 2014, second in December and again about a month ago because I was attempting to pay off the difference between the trade in value and the amount owedTherefore car max is inaccurate in their responses and should get their stories straight before respondingMoving forward, I will work with an attorney to resolve this issue and file a class action lawsuit regarding mishandling of accounts, failure to notify customers of debt with option to cure and third party harassment [redacted] ***

My car was in the shop again April for the airbagCarmax Sacramento sent the car to [redacted] *** and once again I was told the airbag issue was fixedCarmax Sacramento returned the car to me 4/11/On 4/30/the airbag light came on again and is currently still onI don't see how offering to having the car appraised is a solution to this problemI want Carmax to agree to buy this car back for what I owe so I am able to get a safe carIt would not be fair for me to end up up side down on a new car because Carmax can't get the car fixedThat is why I purchased a extended warranty from carmax

It doesn't seem to me Carmax is willing to admit they are in the wrong just because I don't remember the name of the manager I spoke with in August that said they would renew my registrationI wasn't going to count on getting anything from them because its there word against mineThank for nothingI'll make sure to never buy a car from them again.Revdex.com: I have reviewed the offer made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted] , and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below [Provide details of why you are not satisfied with this resolution.] Regards, [redacted]
