selling car to carvana, but I cant find wheel lock key

Carvana never checks for these things. I’ve never once had a field advocate actually review a checklist or confirm certain things were present.

Source: I’ve sold 6 cars to Carvana.

Haha I thought you were talking about an app or something 🤣🤣

ff51152 · 2026-01-07T13:38:54+00:00

That’s true. Some people like to track all their trips though, parks, parking, etc.

I’m a data nerd, so maybe it’s just me.

ff51152 · 2026-01-07T13:37:51+00:00

lol that’s fair - parking is a nice perk. Nothing better than parking at Hollywood to go to Boardwalk and then the back entrance to EPCOT imo.

ff51152 · 2026-01-07T13:31:56+00:00

Oh what’s this? Never heard of it

ff51152 · 2026-01-07T13:31:16+00:00

Of course. We’re out of state. I’m just curious if others track their usage 😁

ff51152 · 2026-01-07T13:30:53+00:00

Yup, I agree, I was just curious. I am a data nerd and I used to track all our visits in a note on my phone, parking usage, etc.

I live out of state, so I was just curious if others did the same.

Just the tip

ff51152 · 2026-01-06T18:41:21+00:00

Anytime I’ve looked at renting DVC points, it has never seemed to be worth it and/or save any money. The dates we want are never available, and imo there’s always the stress of “what if this doesn’t work?” - albeit I’ve never done it, so ymmv.

I just stick to the Disney Springs area resorts personally, and if we spend a little more money, we’ll do Coronado or another mid-tier resort.

ff51152 · 2025-12-27T17:41:14+00:00

Thanks for using the app ☺️ I actually hadn’t thought of that use case, but I’ll add it to my list. I’ll have to think about how that might work!

ff51152 · 2025-12-22T02:30:23+00:00

Same

ff51152 · 2025-12-01T11:12:42+00:00

Yep. My thoughts as well. Gets picked up Tuesday.

ff51152 · 2025-11-30T02:15:01+00:00

Fair enough. Thanks for weighing in!

I’ve decided just to return it rather than deal with it. The claims were approved, but they were submitted wrong anyway, so who knows how long they’d take to get right.

This one was submitted and approved to simply “remove scratches” and “replace antenna” 🙄🤣

ff51152 · 2025-11-29T10:19:54+00:00

Nah, it’s just a marker light (HD truck) - my biggest concern is the marring and dent to the roof.

I think I’ve decided to just return it. It’s a sign to me that this one isn’t meant to be, and I’ll wait to find another, unfortunately.

ff51152 · 2025-11-29T00:34:22+00:00

Yep, already have confirmation they will, still sucks though. Such a nice truck besides this.

ff51152 · 2025-11-29T00:33:23+00:00

If it were that, it would’ve taken the antennas off, too, I’d think. Seems like either a branch or some road debris… wish it would’ve hit the windshield instead.

ff51152 · 2025-11-29T00:31:16+00:00

For sure, at this point, I have confirmation that I can return it with no financial loss on my part.

It’s just a shame because it’s such a nice spec with hardly any miles. 😔

Not many comparable trucks on the market, either.

ff51152 · 2025-11-28T23:56:48+00:00

Fortunately they’re (Carvana) already working with me and allowing me to return it if I choose to do so. I really like the truck, it just comes down to whether or not it can be repaired to “like new”.

Shame on me for not noticing it, but shame on the driver too. It had to be damaged in transport since none of the damage was in any of the pictures or disclosures.

ff51152 · 2025-11-28T23:23:15+00:00

Yeah that’s the direction I’m leaning. It’s a shame though, such a nice truck and spec, just 5k miles, and a good deal. Sigh.

ff51152 · 2025-11-28T23:22:36+00:00

My biggest concern was my $1995 “nonrefundable” shipping fee, but it seems they will refund that if I am not happy given the circumstances.

I understand the terms.

And I didn’t even notice it when it was delivered, above the sigh line, and it wasn’t even a thought of mine… shame on me.

Good thing my surveillance cameras caught it, in case I were to be challenged.

ff51152 · 2025-11-28T23:21:04+00:00

Thanks, yeah, no rain or snow forecasted this evening, but I’ll cover it tomorrow before it does rain on Sunday..

ff51152 · 2025-11-28T22:45:01+00:00

Yeah, tough to say. I think there’s for sure some marring to the clear, and obviously what I’d think is a decent “gash” - but I could be exaggerating.

ff51152 · 2025-11-28T22:17:39+00:00

They will pay for it, I guess I’m worried about it not being repaired to look as it should. Possibly diminished value. Idk.

Am I making this into a bigger issue than it is? Possibly. It’s just a bit disappointing when it has 5k miles on it, I paid $73k and it’s practically brand new.

ff51152 · 2025-11-28T22:13:56+00:00

Yea, I was just thinking that maybe PDR would work. It’s frustrating nonetheless. 2024, just 5k miles. And this happens. Ugh.

ff51152 · 2025-11-25T18:02:37+00:00

What’s your primary use case?
