  I am submitting this complaint due to misleading and incomplete information provided by Copart on Lot #********, a 2017 Dodge Journey SXT. I placed a $2,000 offer on June 13, 2025. The listing only showed vague terms like "Mechanical" damage and "Keys: Yes"with no indication the vehicle did not run. There were no operational tags like *********** or Does Not Run, and no visible As-Is disclaimer on the listing at the time of bidding. Only after my offer was accepted did a Copart *** call me at 11:55 AM on June 16 to inform me the vehicle starts but does not run. Had that been disclosed, I would not have placed a bid. After I raised concerns, an Enhanced (E) label appeared on the listingretroactively addedwhich was not present before the sale. I have timestamped screenshots to confirm this. While Copart claims vehicles are as-is, they state in their own Terms and Conditions that they provide operational status labels when known. A *** confirmed the vehicles non-running conditionmaking it a known defect that should have triggered a disclosure label. Their Terms also state buyers should rely on provided information. In this case, that information was either omitted or altered after the fact. Now Im being told I owe a $600 relist feedespite making my offer in good faith based on misleading and incomplete details. I am requesting full cancellation of the transaction, waiver of the relist fee, and an internal review of Coparts vehicle listing and disclosure practices. This experience has been misleading and disheartening. I am documenting everything and will be submitting this same complaint to the ************************************** and the ***. Copart must be held accountable for poor disclosure and post-sale manipulation of listing data.

  In response to
  the claim asserted by Maze McCarter about a vehicle that was purchased at
  Copart’s auction.  One of the
  prerequisites to establishing a member account with Copart is agreement to
  Copart’s binding Member Terms and Conditions. Maze McCarter’s member notes
  indicate that Ms. McCarter signed up to
  become a member and consented
  to the Terms and conditions on 5/29/2025. These Member Terms and Conditions
  state:
  Copart and its vehicle
  sellers expressly disclaim the accuracy or completeness of any and all
  information provided to Members regarding vehicles, whether provided in
  written, verbal, or digital image form (“Vehicle Information”). Vehicle
  Information provided by Copart and its vehicle sellers is for convenience only.
  Members shall not rely on Vehicle Information in deciding whether or how much
  to bid on a vehicle offered for sale through Copart. Vehicle Information
  includes but is not limited to: year, make, model, condition, ACV, damage
  amount, damage type, drivability, accessories, equipment, mileage, odometer
  disclosures, vehicle identification number (e.g. “VIN,” “HIN,” and serial
  number), title, repair cost, repair history, title history, and total loss
  history. No effort has been made to list open recalls applicable to any
  vehicles. Any recalls are the sole responsibility of the purchaser and can be
  found at locations like https://www.nhtsa.gov/. Copart and its vehicle sellers
  expressly disclaim any and all representations, warranties, and guarantees
  regarding vehicles sold through Copart. Copart does not guarantee that keys are
  available for any vehicle sold through Copart, regardless of whether keys are
  present in online vehicle images or were present in the vehicle prior to the
  time of purchase. Certain jurisdictions permit vehicles to be sold with missing
  VIN plates; as a result, Copart does not guarantee that vehicles are equipped
  with any or all VIN plates. Vehicle parts may be missing. Copart does not
  guarantee that vehicles meet or can be modified to meet local emission and/or
  safety requirements. It is the sole responsibility of the Member to ascertain,
  confirm, research, inspect, and/or investigate vehicles and any and all Vehicle
  Information prior to bidding on vehicles.
  H. Bids Entered.
  Once a bid has been submitted, it cannot be retracted, deleted, or cancelled.
  E. Password and
  Security; Account Activity. Members are responsible for all
  account activity, including, without limitation, all Preliminary Bids and
  Virtual Bids submitted under the Member’s username and password through
  Copart’s website. A Member’s account may not be transferred or assigned to any
  other person or entity. 
  You must register with
  Copart using your unique personal login (email address) and password. You are
  responsible for keeping your password confidential. You may not share your
  password with any other person, or let any other person use your account. You agree
  that Copart is not responsible for any loss to you arising from your failure to
  keep your password confidential or from your sharing of your account or
  password. You are responsible for all activity occurring through use of your
  account, including without limitation, all Preliminary Bids and Virtual Bids
  submitted under Your username and password through Copart’s website. If Copart
  becomes aware that you knowingly have provided your login and password
  information to another person, Copart may suspend temporarily or terminate your
  account privileges. We recommend that you immediately notify us of any actual
  or suspected unauthorized use of your account or password.
  You agree to use software
  produced by third parties, including, but not limited to, “browser” software
  that supports a data security protocol compatible with the protocol used by
  Copart. Until notified otherwise by Copart, you agree to use software that supports
  the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol or other protocols accepted by Copart
  and follow Copart’s log-on procedures. You acknowledge that Copart is not
  responsible for notifying you of any upgrades, fixes, or enhancements to any
  such software or for any compromise of data transmitted across computer
  networks or telecommunications facilities not controlled by Copart. You
  acknowledge that it is possible that, despite the reasonable security measures
  that Copart has implemented, electronic communications may be accessed by
  unauthorized third parties when communicated between you and Copart using the
  Internet, other network communications facilities, telephone or any other
  electronic means.
  D. Relist Fees.
  In the event a vehicle is not paid for within the time specified by the Copart
  facility where the vehicle was sold, Member agrees that Copart may, in its sole
  discretion, cancel the sale or relist the vehicle for sale, and the Member
  shall be responsible to pay a relist fee plus any collection costs, including
  court costs and reasonable attorney’s fees.  Relist fees may vary by
  facility. The Member agrees to verify relist fees prior to bidding on
  vehicles. 
  By agreeing to these Member Terms
  and Conditions, Ms. McCarter acknowledges that she understood the referenced
  risks.
  In reviewing the advertisement for the referenced vehicle, no
  drive status (run & drive nor engine starts) was listed as it was not confirmed
  at time of inventory. The referenced vehicle was advertised with rear end and
  mechanical damage. Had Maze McCarter came out to inspect the vehicle before
  bidding she would have been fully aware of any issues associated with it. The
  Copart webpage consists of a Help Center section solely dedicated to inform our
  buyers and direct them to learn as much as they can about any vehicle. Our
  members can order a Copart Vehicle Inspection Report, for a fee, that will
  provide extra photos, at least two videos and review equipment/features on the
  vehicle. Additionally, Maze McCarter could have hired their own inspector to
  come out and examine the vehicle. All these tools were available for Maze
  McCarter to utilize, but she failed to use any of them. Accordingly, Copart
  rejects any and all demands Maze McCarter has regarding a refund or billing
  adjustment.

  I paid for a subscription to copart with the same information that I got my subscription with **** the other insurance auto auction company in the **. In ************** a wholesale dealer doesn't have to have a local business license to operate just a NC auto dealer business license. I emailed several times explaining that and was never approved to bid even though u don't have to have a dealer license to bid on some cars my account was never approved to buy any cars. After they refused multiple times even after I explained NC law regarding dealer license for wholesaler I realized I was never going to get to buy anything I asked for my money back and I was told that after 7 days I couldn't get it back but they never approved me to buy anything even though I sent in enough information to buy non dealer cars. Both companies have a monopoly on insurance cars and have terrible customer service when there is an issue.

  In response to the claim asserted by Jeffrey Wilson about his request to refund his Copart Membership fee, one of the prerequisites to bid on prospective vehicles is establishing a member account with Copart. To become a Copart member, an individual must pay the non-refundable membership fee and agree to Copart’s binding Member Terms and Conditions. Jeffrey Wilson’s member notes indicate that Jeffrey Wilson consented to the Terms and conditions on 9/21/2023. These Member Terms and Conditions state:
  
  IV. MEMBERS
  A. Member Eligibility; Registration Data; Biometric Data. You may sign up as a Member at Copart if you are at least 18 years of age. In order to be able to bid or purchase vehicles through Copart, you must additionally satisfy other Member requirements as specified herein and successfully complete and pass Copart’s onboarding and screening requirements, which shall include, but may not be limited to, providing identification information, a government-issued photo ID, and business incorporation and/or licensing information and documentation, as applicable.  State-specific registration requirements and applicable laws, regulations, and restrictions may further limit Member sign up and vehicle purchasing eligibility. Copart reserves the right to deny Member onboarding applications, deny or restrict Member privileges and features, and exclude any individual or entity from Copart facilities, in each case, in its sole discretion. Your registration information includes any information you and/or your organization provides to us during the registration process and from time to time thereafter (“Registration Data”). The Registration Data is subject to our Privacy Policy. In consideration for your use of the Copart Websites, you agree to provide true, accurate, current and complete Registration Data, and to maintain and promptly update the Registration Data to keep it true, accurate, current and complete.
  When you sign up as a Member at Copart, Copart collects and processes your biometric data in the form of geometric facial patterns derived from photographs that you provide to us. We use this data, along with other data, to verify your identity and prevent fraud. Consistent with the practices outlined in Copart’s Privacy Policy, Copart retains biometric data only for as long as necessary to verify your identity and prevent fraud. We do not retain your biometric data longer than necessary to provide our services and to comply with applicable law, which retention period will not exceed three years from the date of collection. Copart will not disclose your biometric data to third parties, except for our service providers that process your data on our behalf to provide identify verifications, fraud prevention, and authentication services. By registering as a Member at Copart, you acknowledge and agree that you have read this disclosure and Copart’s Privacy Policy, and that you voluntarily consent to Copart’s and its clients’ and service providers’ collection, storage, retention, use, and disclosure of your biometric data.
  B. Member Types. 
  Registered Guests must register and provide at least their first and last name, email address and phone number. Registered Guests may search inventory, add vehicles to a Watchlist and create Vehicle Alerts, but Registered Guests will not be able to bid on or purchase vehicles unless their membership type is upgraded to either a Basic or Premier Membership.
  Basic Members must register and provide copies of current government issued photo identification as well as licenses and completed sales tax exemption certificates, if applicable. In addition, Basic Members must pay the initial Basic Member registration fee. A security deposit may also be required in certain cases in order for the Basic Member to submit a bid (see Section V.H. below).
  Premier Members must register and provide copies of current government issued photo identification as well as licenses and completed sales tax exemption certificates, if applicable. In addition, Premier Members must pay the initial Premier Member registration fee and security deposit.
  All Basic and Premier Members who purchase vehicles for resale must provide copies of current licenses and completed sales tax exemption certificates. Basic and Premier Memberships must be renewed annually by paying an annual nonrefundable Member renewal fee. Basic and Premier Members are responsible for submitting copies of any license renewals or changes and any information regarding change of ownership or address. Failure to submit active and updated licenses may result in Members becoming ineligible to bid on vehicles (up to and including suspension of the Member’s account). Copart reserves the right to increase or decrease registration and renewal fees at any time without prior notice to Members.
  Individuals and entities are prohibited from opening more than one Member account, unless requested in writing and explicitly authorized by Copart.
  
  By agreeing to these Member Terms and Conditions, Jeffrey Wilson acknowledged that he understood that he was signing up for yearlong membership. As stated in the terms and conditions that Jeffrey Wilson agreed to, the annual membership fee is non-refundable. We ask the BBB to close this case.

  Business Response

  Date: 06/13/2025

  We understand your concerns regarding the delay in receiving the vehicle you purchased and appreciate the opportunity to clarify the situation.
  The long-haul delivery request for the referenced vehicle was submitted on June 10, 2025. As outlined in the *********** on our website under "How to Get Your Vehicle(s) :
  Copart Delivery
  The easiest and often fastest way to get your vehicle(s) to you is by using Copart Delivery. Youll see an estimate on the Payments Due screen. Select the vehicles you want shipped to you, then select Order Delivery. Then you can pay for shipping just like paying for your vehicles and fees. Your vehicles should arrive to you in a few business days within 100 miles, or up to three weeks if farther away.
  Based on your account details and the delivery address provided, your delivery location exceeds 100 miles. Our records confirm that the vehicle and its title were picked up by the long-haul driver from the Copart location on June 12, 2025. Therefore, the delivery is still within the standard three-week window and proceeding as expected.
  Given that the delivery time frame has not lapsed, Copart respectfully rejects the request for a refund made by ****** *****.
  Copart respectfully request the BBB to close this complaint as the delivery time frame has not yet expired.

  I am rejecting this response because:   The delivery driver admitted to cracking the windshield and I asked for my refund for the delivery part and they still are trying to deny giving me my money back. Unacceptable and horrible business practices.i also provided photos to the manager in email as well.

  I purchased a 2014 Kia ******* LX (Lot #********) through Coparts ******* MN yard. I inspected the vehicle in person before bidding, and it did not have a broken windshield at that time. I also requested Coparts delivery service. When the vehicle was delivered to my home (only 15 minutes from the yard), the windshield was completely shattered.This damage clearly occurred while the vehicle was in Coparts custodyeither while in the yard or during transport. I contacted the ****** yard and received a very rude and unprofessional response. They denied any responsibility and refused to investigate or assist ********** addition, the vehicle had significant mechanical issues that were not disclosed in the listing, including major problems with the braking system, software malfunctions, and a faulty starter. These repairs are estimated at around $4,000, and none of them were mentioned in Coparts description.The delivery itself took more than two weeks, which is unreasonable given the short distance. Furthermore, Copart sent the vehicle title directly to the Minnesota DMV without giving me the option to handle it myself and charged me approximately $70 without a detailed explanation.I am requesting:Compensation or reimbursement for the windshield damage Compensation for the undisclosed mechanical defects A full investigation into the conduct and handling by the ****** yard staff A breakdown of the fees charged for title processing and delivery Ive attempted to resolve this directly with Copart but have received no cooperation. I hope the BBB can assist in facilitating a fair resolution.

  I purchased a vehicle Thursday may ******* that was listed as engine starts solely for that reason from Copart located in ********************************************* and my transporter has been attempting to get it to start since Friday after buying brand new batteries and spending hours there in their yard . Come to the conclusion that the vehicle was never a engine start after everything attempted and a yard worker came up to my transporter and told him that vehicle will never start because it has never ran since it got there . The listing they made was false advertising or a mistake . All I simply want is the funds back in my account . They have the ability to do that very easily and their Gm is arguing with me that all I can do is sell it back in consignment and lose a bunch of money . I dont want to accept that . They lied to me about it running and I dont want that vehicle they have my money and dont want to be fair and make it right . Please help me solve this . Ive been emailing them and all they said is no . Resell it with us or pick it up . Thats very unfair and unprofessional when they made the mistake and listed it falsely I shouldnt have to to carry that load . I want to resolve this asap My member number is ****** The vehicle lot number is ******** Ive been emailing their yard Gm *************************************** Please help me resolve this . I want the funds back in My account . The truck is in their possession . Ive lost a lot of money trying to get it to start and nothing.

  In response to the claim asserted by ***** **** ******* that was purchased at Coparts auction was misrepresent as Run & Drive.  One of the prerequisites to establishing a member account with ********************** is agreement to Coparts binding Member Terms and Conditions.  Mr. ************** member notes indicate that he consented to the Terms and conditions on 3/27/2025 and again on 5/20/2025. The definition of Run and Drive when you see it on the website advertisement states:
  At the time the vehicle arrived at Copart's facility, Copart verified that the vehicle (i) started, and (ii) ran at idle. There is no guarantee, representation, or warranty that the vehicle will (i) start or (ii) run at idle at the time the vehicle is picked up at Copart's facility. It is the Member's sole responsibility to ascertain, confirm, research, inspect, and/or investigate the vehicle prior to bidding on it. Once the vehicle is removed from Copart's premises, the Member accepts the vehicle "as is".       
  
  The R&D label does not guarantee that any vehicle is safe to drive without first undergoing repairs, nor does it guarantee that any vehicle will ever be roadworthy again. The R&D simply states that, at the time the vehicle was brought to a Copart yard to be prepared for auction, it could be started and moved forward a minimal distance under its own power. No guarantee is made as to the operability of an R&D vehicle at the time it is retrieved.
  Our T&Cs point out that the information we provide is for convenience only, and that burden is placed upon the member to gather information on the vehicle prior to bidding on it. This information can be found at section I.A of our T&Cs and reads:

  Had Mr. ******* came out to inspect the vehicle before bidding he would have been fully aware of any issues associated with it. Additionally, the management team at the Copart purchasing location has made an exception and purchased new batteries for the referenced vehicle and confirmed the vehicle does in fact start. Accordingly, Copart rejects any and all demands Mr. ******* has regarding a refund.

  Copart Misrepresented Vehicle Condition Refusing Full Refund Including Shipping I am filing this complaint against Copart Auto Auction for misrepresentation and deceptive business practices regarding the sale of a vehicle through their auction platform.On May 6 2025, I purchased a vehicle from Copart listed under Lot #********. The vehicle was described as having "front damage only," and based on that representation, I made the purchase and paid an additional $721..35 to have the vehicle shipped to me.Upon delivery, it became clear that the listing had omitted or intentionally concealed major damages beyond what was disclosed:The undercarriage of the vehicle was severely damaged.The engine was loose, indicating structural or mechanical damage beyond surface level.All airbags had been deployed, a fact that was completely undisclosed in the listing.Most concerningly, the driver seat had been sawed open and resewnan apparent attempt to hide the missing airbag. This indicates a level of intentional concealment.These issues constitute a gross misrepresentation of the vehicle's condition and violate ethical business practices. I contacted Copart immediately upon discovering these issues. While they have offered a reversal of the sale, they are refusing to reimburse the $721.35 I paid for shipping.I believe that Copart should be held responsible for all costs associated with this misrepresented transaction, including the full refund of the purchase price and the entire shipping cost of $721.35. It is unacceptable for a buyer to bear the cost of transporting a vehicle that was inaccurately and deceptively described. They have admitted to their mistake to me via email and verbally and they should take full responsibility for their misrepresentation.I appreciate the BBBs assistance in helping to resolve this issue fairly.Sincerely,**** Shamrut ***** ************ *********, **

  In response to the claim asserted by **** Shamrut ***** about a vehicle that was purchased at Coparts auction.  One of the prerequisites to establishing a member account with ********************** is agreement to Coparts binding Member Terms and Conditions.  **** Shamrut Lopezs member notes indicate that Mr. ***** signed up to become a member and consented to the Terms and conditions on 2/19/2024 and again on 4/25/2025. These Member Terms and Conditions state:

  Once a vehicle is removed from Coparts premises it is accepted AS-IS, and under no circumstances will Copart be liable for subsequent claims of damage or loss of any kind or nature whatsoever. In the event Copart is found liable by a competent judicial authority,damages shall be limited to the lesser of (i) the amount of the diminution in value of the vehicle as reasonably estimated by Copart or (ii) the auction sale price (in which case the Member shall return the vehicle to Copart).  Copart may, in its sole discretion, resell the vehicle at a Copart sale, and the difference between the original sale price and the resale price shall be conclusive as to the amount of diminution of value, if any.
  Had **** Shamrut ***** came out to inspect the vehicle before bidding he would have been fully aware of any issues associated with it. The Copart webpage consists of a *********** section solely dedicated to inform our buyers and direct them to learn as much as they can about any vehicle. Our members can order a Copart Vehicle Inspection Report, for a fee, that will provide extra photos, at least two videos and review equipment/features on the vehicle.Additionally, **** could have hired their own inspector to come out and examine the vehicle. All these tools were available for **** Shamrut ***** to utilize, but he failed to use any of them. Accordingly,Copart rejects any and all demands **** Shamrut ***** has regarding a refund.

  I am rejecting this response because:    I believe the company misrepresented the condition of the vehicle and failed to disclose critical safety information.
  Prior to the purchase, I contacted a Copart representative by phone to inquire about the vehicles condition. I was explicitly told that the vehicle sustained only front-end damage. However, upon receiving the vehicle, I discovered that it had significant undercarriage damage and that the airbags had been deployedfacts that were not disclosed during the phone conversation or clearly indicated in the online listing.
  Moreover, the photographs provided on Copart's website did not show the deployed airbags, which are a critical safety feature. I have attached comparative photographs that show the actual damage to the vehicle versus the images used in the listing, demonstrating the discrepancy.
  I believe this omission of material facts constitutes a serious breach of trust and may represent deceptive business practices. The lack of transparency not only misled me as a buyer but also raises significant safety concerns.
  I am requesting that the BBB review this matter and assist in facilitating a resolution. Ideally, I would like a full investigation into Copart's listing practices and a refund or compensation for the misrepresented vehicle.
  Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.

  
  Sincerely,

  On may 6th my vehicle was towed to Coparts tow yard. Upon my wife going to retrieve my personal items from The vehicle we noticed some Items were missing. Copart states that they will deliver great service with every customer they encounter. Stealing from us is not okay.

  Unfortunately, ****** ****** did not provide enough information to identify the vehicle in question. The Copart member number, Copart lot number or VIN would suffice. Once we receive that information, we will be happy to investigate the matter.
  
  Thank you,

  Complaint Returned Check Not Reissued by Copart I am filing this complaint regarding a returned check issued by Copart **** (Check #****, amount: $400). The check was returned by *************** on March 5, 2025, due to attempted deposit into an incorrect account. It was never credited to my bank account.Despite multiple attempts to resolve this directly with Copartincluding formal emails and evidence providedno replacement payment has been issued and no solution has been offered.This lack of response and reimbursement is unacceptable. I am requesting immediate investigation and enforcement so Copart issues the proper payment.Attached: copy of the returned check and email correspondence.Sincerely,******

  Business Response

  Date: 05/20/2025

  Attached is a copy of the check, which reflects a deposit date of March 5, 2025. To date, we have not received any supporting documentation from the members bank, despite multiple references to such correspondence in the members emails. The only attachment received thus far is the original check copy issued by Copart.
  Please note, Copart checks are endorsed For Deposit Only, which does not require a handwritten signature. This type of endorsement is standard and allows for direct deposit into the payees designated account.
  We confirmed with our ******************* on May 15, 2025, that this check has not been returned by the bank. The banks records indicate the check was processed and paid.
  In order to proceed with a more thorough investigation, we will need documentation directly from the members bank showing the check was not deposited into their account. If the member suspects fraudulent activity (e.g., the check was deposited by an unauthorized party), Copart will provide a fraud affidavit for the member to complete. Once returned, we will submit the affidavit to the bank to initiate their investigation. Please be advised that while we will cooperate fully, the banks research process may take up to six (6) months and Copart cannot guarantee the outcome of their findings.
  We remain committed to assisting the member and will continue our efforts as soon as the required bank documentation is received.
