If the DMV accepted the registration with that vin, then 99.9% of owners out there would assume its not stolen. This is a known issue with DMVs not communicating with each other from different states.
Car is a Mustang, DMV runs vin, and the system says the vin belongs to a Mustang. What's to argue about?..... That you didn't research the vin in depth, that's entirely different.
@@domingofungFrom what I'm gathering the stolen Mustang had fake vins on the door and window because it states the cop ran a "true vin" and showed them that the actual vin was stolen. He's complaining about the inspection because those are not the only two places a vin is located. I think it's understandable though. No dealership is going to search the entire car for vin's like that.
or the buyer can be proactive and take a scan tool with him/her. A quick scan can tell you whether the VIN of the vehicle actually matches with the 1 on the windshield. Granted, digital VIN can also be modified but that required a bit of labor. I highly doubt that your run-of-the-mill thieves even know how or have access to equipment/software to spoof the VIN.
I'm not understanding why people are still purchasing cars from Carvana. The issues with Carvana have been widely reported over multiple news media outlets for years. Some states have even suspended Carvana's license to operate.
i got my car in 2021 from carvana and it was one of the easiest things ive ever had to deal with. picked up my old car at the same time as they dropped off the new one, never had to speak to anyone besides the delivery driver, or deal with a car salesman trying to scam me. not sure why it keeps happening else where
what's shady is them buying mostly totaled cars from auctions, doing the bare minimum to fix them and while they are being fix they are washing the titles. By the time a title comes back the car is repaired and listed on the site as CPO with no accidents. People buy salvaged auction cars all the time and they don't know it.
i buy cars for a dealer, the first thing we do is plug in our scanners to the OBD port and check that the VIN matches. you can fake VIN plates and stickers, but the computer never lies. the fact that a company like Carvana isn't doing this is mind boggling. I don't see Carvana lasting much longer, especially at the prices they are selling vehicles for. crazy
I USED TO WORK WITH A SMALL DEALER. We would receive new inventory either from the auto auction, trade ins, or wholesale through another dealer. We had a process. We first check to see if the VIN matches the paperwork. Then, we check VINs on the car in other places. If all is good, then we partnered with the detective bureau at the local PD, who were always happy to work with us and check the VIN against their two databases they use to check cars. We would also run a Carfax. We would find discrepancies once in awhile and we would just let the police handle it. The last thing we want is to sell a car that has issues like this. Carvana could have the same process. Hell, they could establish their own police department to do this with the money they have. They just choose not to. They make car dealers look bad.
They’re not a car dealer they’re a bank that sells cars. Look at their interests rates you’ll see why they are still in business. I sold my car to them. They tried to sell me a 35k car starting at 22% before I even put my credit in
Probably from an auction. Caravana is nothing more than a used car lot. They buy cars from anywhere. You can go to any street car dealer with probably the same level of comfort as buying from that vending machine.
I’ve been seeing news stories about Carvana selling stolen cars for years. If they didn’t fix the problem by now, I wouldn’t expect them to going forward.
This needs to stop, the Government must drop the hammer on this company. This company should give free cars to the poor souls who had to go thru these stolen car inconveniences.
The VIN is in the computer and stamped on other locations on the frame. When you plug the computer readout device in order to do your '150 point inspection', the VIN is displayed. I don't think they do 150 point inspection. I bet they do like a 10 point inspection. Does it have 4 wheels (doesn't matter if they have tread)? Check. Is there a hood and trunk lid? Check. Does it have all the doors? Check. Is it mostly the same color? Check. Is there an engine (running or not)? Check.
As soon as I saw the first commercial for Carvana years ago, I knew that I would never buy a car from them. Every car purchase is over priced, and removing price negotiation out of vehicle shopping is very bad for the consumer.
And the charges filed against carvana are what exactly? Possession of and selling of stolen property and intentionally destroying the vin numbers of the stolen cars. Sounds very cut and dry to me.
My advice, get an aftermarket alarm for your car. Almost all systems do not have shock, motion, and glass sensors and tracking. Also, it is worth it to get a kill switch put in a secret location. And they need to bring back the ability to remove the steering wheel.
They really do need to bring back the ability to remove the steering wheel, I totally agree with that. The only problem is what’s gonna happen with the airbag? Driver’s Side Airbags are mandatory on all new Class C Licensed vehicles, and have been for years now. Airbags are notoriously finicky, and have a tendency to go off if you try to remove them with power still going to the airbag. It’s to the point, that in order to remove the airbag, you need to disconnect the whole car battery, and wait 15 minutes to ensure there is no electric current left in the airbag. If they were to try and bring them back, with airbags as finicky as they are, I can see a lot of people getting airbags in the face if they try and remove the steering wheel with a quick release mechanism to avoid theft.
99.999% of people will only check the VIN displayed on the dash and the door jamb. 0.001% of people check the VIN in the ECM. Plus how do we know the ecm hadn't been swapped between this mustang and the other? The mustang in Texas might have sold its ECM to this guy. Another thing, VINS can also be rewritten aka changed by higher level car scanners.
Carvona needs to start hooking up a Reader to each car they are willing to take in so they know from the start if it's a legit vin or fake and then reporting it, that would also slow down thefts from steeling cars as there wouldn't be as much of a market for them.
Devastating??? Cancer is devastating. Seeing your child die is devastating. Finding out the car you spent a lot of time “detailing” is stolen - meh - not so much.
I'm a bit surprised that the VIN in the cars computers was not updated as well. My first thought was that someone had replaced the computer with one that was from a stolen car. However, if there's another car running around with that VIN then that's obviously not the case. Seems like the thieves cloned the title and cut a new set of number plates to apply to this vehicle.
I love how the report only quickly talks about how the mixup really happened and then doesn’t mention it again. And that is how they got the real Vin number by plugging into the vehicles OBD. Nobody would assume that the number outside the vehicle would differ from that 🤷♂️ This obviously now has to become a new standard in vehicle identification. I certainly will do this on my next used car purchase.
I almost bought a car from Carvana in 2020. Thank god I did my research and read a ton of reviews and horror stories. Ended up going to Carmax (probably no better) but it was a smooth and pleasant experience and I haven’t had any issues since.
You can't tell me the state is not in on this. I mean how are they getting away with putting fake VIN numbers on stolen cars and then reselling them . Not only that who is providing these stolen vehicles question mark and who's allowing them to register these VIN numbers are real? And to top it off it's not even the first case it's the second case in nearly 2 weeks
If someone sold you a stolen car, shouldn’t they get in trouble. If a corporation sold you a stolen shouldn’t the consequences be worse. Am I dumb for thinking this?
I had no idea the OBD read VINs. How long before thieves figure out how to reprogram that with the fake VIN? Dang, that looked like a nice Mustang, too.
As soon as they develop nuclear powered cars about 20,000 years from now, since the vin number is stored on a ROM chip, and rom means READ ONLY memory.
How expensive is the code reader that will show the true VIN? A good code reader can also show the ECM's TRUE odometer reading (starting with the 2001 model year -- guards against speedometer cluster swapping). Every car buyer needs this tool, and if the dealer doesn't use his code reader IN YOUR PRESENCE, presume he has something to hide.
If ever any business needs to have in place a way to check out vehicles before purchase and sell it should be companies that are in the business of selling and buying cars and they should be held completely and totally accountable to do so.
I sold my Mustang to Carvana last year. They didn't even try to sell it. It went straight to auction. A Ford dealership 4 hours away bought it then sold it.
@2:23…..she says the guy that bought the car from Carvana ‘really misses his Mustang’. What about the guy that the Mustang was stolen from??? Does he miss it? Or was it an insurance scam on the original owners’ part??
He should be glad, my neighbor bought a car from them and over a year of waiting the car has yet to show up. Their support just keeps saying it is on its way.
Carvana's 150 point inspection just means it was in their system for 150 minutes at some point. Anyone who buys a car from them is taking a huge chance. It's pretty obvious that they do no research into the vehicles they sell.
"Total devastation"? Nope. A minor annoyance at best. They'll get their money back, after driving the cars for a year for FREE. Total devastation is having your car stolen, and being forced to ride the bus to work the next morning.
They don’t directly deal with anything. Caravana is an umbrella corp that dishes out it’s leg work. It’s actually very smart but they don’t get full quality control and then end up with cases like this which are few and far between but still not okay.
@@wizard8437that's all irrelevant, the law is anyone in posession of stolen merchandise can be charged as an accessory. carvana took control of stolen merchandise and should still be accountable as anyone else would be. if this continues to be a trend, then they need measures to be more careful.
Carvana didn't know that the property was stolen so why should they be found guilty? If you bought a car which which was stolen but you didn't know it was stolen and you later sold that car, should you be found _"guilty of dealing in stolen property"_ ?
@@irrelevant2235 you’re right. A national car sales company like Carvana should bare no responsibility. They did not know it was stolen and they had no responsibility to look into that possibility before listing it. I mean how could they be expected to suspect that a person might steal a car and then sell it. It’s not like they have a reputation or nothin’.
@@wilbur7096 You're just not getting it. If a company or an individual person legitimately didn't know that a product was stolen, why should they be found _"guilty of dealing in stolen property"_ ?
Carvana is suddenly responsive ONLY when a platform exposes them. They care about image and perception, not customer satisfaction. Carvana and most other companies in this sector would do nothing to help the customer forcing them to take their company to court. If it were a customer that didnt have much money and bought a cheap car, they would be left high and dry.
From what I'm gathering the stolen Mustang had fake vins on the door and window because it states the cop ran a "true vin" and showed them that the actual vin was stolen.

No dealership is going to search the entire car for vin's like that.
1:33 This part is weird. A detective scanned the OBD port to get the VIN, which was different than the VIN printed on the exterior of the car? Why did a detective have access to the OBD port?
why isn't Carvana being prosecuted for selling stolen goods they are a fence for stolen cars. How did they register them if they were in the registry computer as stolen once the title is run all the info should popup on the screen
How do we know the computer is from the stolen car and the car is a legit one? Wouldnt that show the scanner the stolen vin if someone didnt reprogram the computer?
“Customer experience is our top priority…..” It absolutely is not. Their priority is making as much money as possible. Any vehicle sales franchise that says otherwise is clearly lying. If their priorities were what they said they were, they’d never have sold a stolen car and they would have responded to the customer immediately when he brought up a discrepancy. They only responded when the media contacted them. Pretty shady shit.

You're right about cars being marked up. That's true no matter where you go.
But Carvana tends to mark them up less than other dealers.

Cant trust them or Vroom
That's because they ARE shady, just like their founders, a pair of ex cons who did time for fraud!
Look at the owner. And his father.
It looks like they need a 151 point inspection.
The 150 point inspection probably consists of looking at the car and blinking 150 times.

Vin plates are easy to swap, pop rivets and super glue are cheap too.
The VIN is in the computer and stamped on other locations on the frame. When you plug the computer readout device in order to do your '150 point inspection', the VIN is displayed.

I guess this is why customers have had a hard time getting their titles from Caravana.
Sounds like carvana need to give these people a FREE RIDE !
THIS IS THE 3RD STORY I HAVE SEEN LAST 3 DAYS ABOUT CAVANA!
TWO OF THEM WERE CAMAROS AND NOW WE HAVE A MUSTANG
As soon as I saw the first commercial for Carvana years ago, I knew that I would never buy a car from them. Every car purchase is over priced, and removing price negotiation out of vehicle shopping is very bad for the consumer.
If you can not find the car you really want, and if Carvana can’t they will go out and steal one for you. Now that’s real customer service
Caravan seems to never make their negligence right till the news make it right.
And the charges filed against carvana are what exactly?
Possession of and selling of stolen property and intentionally destroying the vin numbers of the stolen cars. Sounds very cut and dry to me.
Who says carvana did a vin swap?
😂 very unlikely

Why anyone would risk buying a vehicle from Carvana at this point is beyond me.
It's a Mustang, I see 300 of them a day...I'm sure he'll find another one. Glad they got him sorted out though.
The fact they were ignoring him until it was made public is concerning.
If your life is in ‘total devastation’ over a car, you need to reevaluate your priorities.

How did they get the car titled if it was stolen?
It's called VIN cloning/fraud, and it happens a lot more than you hear about.
Aww so sad but I hope rightful owner got his baby back😢
What’s sad is that car has already been written off and will end up at auction as salvage or if the VIN has been cancelled, parts.
Both of these customers should be held accountable for stealing

Ahhh Carvana! The vending machine that sells you a stolen car.🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is a rare occurrence where the original owner of the vehicle will get it back in better shape than before it got stolen.

why isn't Carvana being prosecuted for selling stolen goods they are a fence for stolen cars. How did they register them if they were in the registry computer as stolen once the title is run all the info should popup on the screen
A squatter can keep a house because it's a civil matter but two people have a title for the same car and its not a civil issue.
When I’ve seen these mustangs and high end sports cars I always hesitated for this reason. How do these types of vehicles even end up at Carvana?
How do we know the computer is from the stolen car and the car is a legit one? Wouldnt that show the scanner the stolen vin if someone didnt reprogram the computer?
Someone at that company is probably complicit. Maybe a employee was paid off?
“Customer experience is our top priority…..” It absolutely is not. Their priority is making as much money as possible. Any vehicle sales franchise that says otherwise is clearly lying. If their priorities were what they said they were, they’d never have sold a stolen car and they would have responded to the customer immediately when he brought up a discrepancy. They only responded when the media contacted them. Pretty shady shit.
So many failures here, including by the DMV for allowing the stollen car to be registered by the new owner
He should be able to keep his car … give the owner a new car .. they have all them car just sitting on the lot… this is a shame … sue them smh
So maybe they need a 151 point inspection, you know where you check the hardcoded VIN?
