The following is from a complaint I just register with the BBB. If you've
had similar problems please contact me...
I purchased a Jaguar XKR from CARMAX's Davie Store on 5/19/07. At which time
I noticed several problems with the car that needed to be fixed. I reported
the issues and left the car with them for repair. When I picked up the car I
noticed that most of my issues were not addressed. While waiting for parts
to arrive for the second round of repairs, I took the car home for a few
days. I found numerous other repair issues. I found 12 warrantee issues.
When I brought the car back I gave the Service Manager, Sammy Warnamally a
printed list, and copies of CARMAX's certification form showing why these
items were covered. I brought my car in on 6/1/07. When I got my car back 14
DAYS later discovered 1) stereo wasn't fixed, 2) second set of keys and
valet key were not in yet, 3) convertible cover was not ordered, 4) trim
around the door handle wasn't addressed 5) visor wasn't replaced "because
Jaguar sent them the wrong part." 6) now the rear view mirror is loose as if
the car suffered a heavy impact or was driven a long distance down a dirt
road. Caked on white mud is on the inside door panels. For 2 weeks I have
been strung along by the service manager. When I asked to pick up my car
until the parts arrived, I was repeatedly told the seats were taken apart
and awaiting a headrest motor from Jaguar so I could not pick it up. Jaguar
Parts Department told me their delivery takes a week at most and parts can
be overnighted for a nominal cost of $6 per item. I was lied to that my car
was ready except for the headrest motors. I was also lied to about the extra
set of keys being there. Despite involvement of Operations Manager Adam
Warner and General Manager Theresa, my vehicle is still not fixed. I have
lost many hours work, suffered grief, and have had to pay $606 payment for a
car I was only able to drive a few days. I am releasing this to the Media,
posting my story on Internet consumer protection websites, forums and
newsgroups to get together a class action lawsuit. I am registering a
complaint with the Attorney General's Office and State Attorney's Office, as
I suspect foul play.
As it is impossible to trust CARMAX, I want all further repairs to be done
at Alpine Jaguar. I want Jaguar to inspect the car for accident/abuse
damage. Compensation for my monthly payment to Capital One for $606. My lost
time and wages estimated at 6 hours at $150 an hour. Grief and punitive
damages will be addressed in another arena.

Lack of motorized headrests... now there's *real* grounds for a
lawsuit.

Hey, Steve: Here's a clue: We Don't Really Care.
You got a beef with the dealer, keep it to yourself. I didn't bother to
read your article, they're usually long, boring WAAA-WAAA-WAAA stories.
If you'd done your homework, you wouldn't have gotten stuck, or whatever
your complaint is.
Also, this is a Toyota NG. Why do we give a Flying Fu@k about your Jaguar?
Go away, you irritating little man.

Um, I don't think the Jag was the issue, Hachi. I think he was talking more
about what he thought was lousy service from Carmax.

He's just another cry-baby that's whining about nothing, like that ditz
that used to post about her sludged whatever. Probably trying to drum up
support for a class-action lawsuit where he and the lawyers get $$$M and
everyone else gets a coupon for a free car wash.
He posted this to a number of automotive NGs.
Someone will get lousy service from anyone, and some people are just
habitual whiners.

Here's the kicker, WD. I missed it the first time 'cause I got tired of
his whining after the first two sentances:
"As it is impossible to trust CARMAX, I want all further repairs to be
done at Alpine Jaguar. I want Jaguar to inspect the car for accident/abuse
damage. Compensation for my monthly payment to Capital One for $606. My
lost time and wages estimated at 6 hours at $150 an hour. Grief and
punitive damages will be addressed in another arena."
He's just trying to drum up support for a lawsuit.
He probably didn't take the car to a mechanic or give it a good once over;
chances are he drove the car, got a few looks from some cute girls, HAD to
have the car and now has Buyer's Remorse; the dealer probably offered to
take the car back for a couple $thousand less than he paid, and now he's
being a whiny a.s filing a lawsuit and wants others to crawl out of the
woodwork to join him.
Just another low-life spammer, but one that wants to sue...

yeah....right. then why did you post the exact same message in a couple of
different car forums? And you keep calling others morons...take a good look
in the mirror and you'll see a real one.

Why bother telling people in a Toyota group about a Jaguar?
There are plenty of people in here whining about dealers. No one dealer is
going to make everyone happy.
So, instead of crying to US about it, here's an original idea:
TAKE THE FRIGGIN' CAR BACK TO THE DEALER AND TELL THEM YOU WANT YOUR MONEY
BACK, OR YOU'LL CALL THE BBB!
All it appeared to me was to be a personal rant about a dealer, spread
across numerous newsgroups, looking like you're trying to rally support
for a Class Action Lawsuit, where you and the lawyers will make
$$$Millions, and everyone else will get a coupon for a free Car Wash.
Looks like SPAM to me!
Moron.

Well, I too had a bad experience at CARMAX and ended up walking out.
Let's just say that I found the car buying experience to be
dramatically different from what CARMAX advertises. We ended up talking
to a manager and found him to be an arrogant, self important Poo-Bah
(thus, the walk out). They did have a real nice, air conditioned show
room though.
BTW, I empathize with this poster. Buying a car and parting with our
hard-earned is an emotional experience. CARMAX advertises that they
represent a different model, one that takes the stress out of the
process. They also go to great lengths to advise the customer of how
every car they sell meets their rigid quality standard and that any
issue with the car will be addressed immediately and without argument.
After walking out of CARMAX, we went down to a used car dealer we have
dealt with before and bought an 07 Camry. Took about 30 minutes.
