Joyride Autos Avaliações 

It pains me to write this because everyone at Joy Ride Auto Traders was extremely nice to my family during the purchase. Unfortunately, my experience afterward has been extremely disappointing.

I purchased a 2012 Nissan Titan on 7/31/26 at top-of-market retail value with a fresh PA inspection. Almost immediately I discovered a leaking radiator, transfer case approximately a quart low and leaking, leaking front differential, cracked exhaust manifold, severely corroded brake lines, broken rear window, and heavy burnt-oil smoke on cold starts apparently related to sludge-clogged PCV/valve-cover baffles.

The truck was already warmed up when I arrived, making the loud exhaust-manifold tick and cold-start oil smoke much less apparent. I also inspected underneath before buying it, but much of the undercarriage appeared recently cleaned, making leaks difficult to see. Once home and driven normally, the leaks and other problems became apparent.

The condition of the brake lines is especially concerning considering the truck had just received a fresh PA safety inspection.

There was also an approximately $1,100 CARS service contract included in the transaction that was never presented to me for review or signature. CARS later contacted me because it was unsigned, and I canceled it.

I contacted the dealer promptly and tried to work toward a reasonable solution. Their answer was for me to drive the truck two hours back to their shop. By then I had discovered the leaking radiator, extremely low transfer case, deteriorated brake lines and other issues, and I did not consider the truck roadworthy enough to make that trip. I also had serious reservations about returning it to the same facility that had apparently failed to identify these problems before selling the truck with a fresh inspection.

I was not seeking to undo the sale. I understand that a 2012 truck will need maintenance and repairs. However, after paying retail market value, I don’t believe a buyer should immediately be responsible for this number of significant pre-existing issues. I simply wanted the dealer to acknowledge the situation and offer reasonable compensation toward the repairs.

Instead, after initially communicating with me, the dealer stopped responding.

Everyone was very nice during the sale, which is what makes this experience so disappointing. Based on my experience, I strongly recommend having any vehicle here independently inspected by a shop of your choosing and insisting on seeing and hearing it from a completely cold start before purchasing.

Bought a car that lasted 5 days andbought the extended warranty with it. Had to fight for 2 weeks to get the information to call the warranty company.
Extended Warranty didn't cover
Dealer warranty didn't cover
Dealer doesn't want to help.
Im eating a $500 bill for clutch fluid flush from still having all origionsl fluids in it on what was supposed to be a mint running 370z.

their fees are out of this world. sometimes 200 percent of the bid. Every auction can be done in person and you can actually view the car you are interested in. buy a car without keys can cost you a few hundred from a locksmith.

Interface was confusing. I bid on the wrong vehicle, then tried to contact the seller immediately and the number provided was out of service. so I contacted Joyride and they would not even try to resolve the issue and I got charged for the deposit on a vehicle I did not need or want.

I bought a vehicle from this platform, from Obsidian auto sales in Whittier, paid $25000 cash and no title, it was all a scam and joyride did nothing to help, it is not legitimate platform, stay away.

I have bought multiple cars from this platform and at first I thought it was a great place to buy used cars and it can be if you time it right. However, there is more downside then up. 1. Stay away from “No Key” Cars. Everyone I have bought has major issues, especially if it looks really clean. Big Red Flag.
2. A lot of these cars have registration issues when you bring them to the dmv, I have paid more in fees then for actual vehicle
3. If your doing this for flipping things can get iffy because they report you as the seller and technically you can’t sell a car not registered in your name

Lastly, I think this concept is good but in the last few months prices have skyrocketed, not sure if this is due to good marketing or are they bidding up the vehicles themselves? I don’t know the answer but wouldn’t be surprised by the way they treat you when you go to pick up the cars. Good company from the seller side, not so great for buyers

So far so good I like the system that I don’t have to go anywhere and bid from my phone the only thing is I can get a good deal anymore all the cars are overpriced because of the number of bidders and there’s a lot of surprises after you buy the car so it’s good and bad the good thing is the convenience but the bad thing you cannot see the car in person and that would make it little tricky

I purchased two cars on Joyride Autos platform. It was easy to bid and pick up my cars. Will use them again soon!

Joyride has been an absolute game changer for our auction. We have more than doubled our average vehicle sale price on the 200+ cars we sell a week, while at the same time reducing overhead costs across the board. Joyride is easy, free to the seller, and has opened our auction up to customers who didn't even know we existed before. No more bidder intimidation. No more braving the elements on a cold and rainy day. Our buyers are more engaged than ever, and our sales price is the proof. I couldn't recommend a product more strongly than I do Joyride. Do yourself a favor, and change your auction for the better today.

I purchased a vehicle here and resold it for a profit. It was a great experience. I recommend doing your research before, auto auctions are not for everyone. It’s best for mechanics and those who want to get their hands dirty!
