My experience with this place was the worst ! DO NOT do business with them!! I put a small deposit down for them to hold a specific car for me. I was told that the deposit was non-refundable, but was transferable to another vehicle. We agreed to hold it for a week. After that, they could sell it but I could still use the deposit for another vehicle. When a week passed, they told me if I didnt pay the rest of the deposit, I would loose the money I already paid and will not be able to transfer it like I was told before. Had that been thoroughly explained, I never would have paid the holding fee. Worst car buying experience *** ever had. I basically got scammed out of my money. NEVER AGAINReview from cathryn s

3rd time was not the charm. I went to **** with keys first they didnt have what I was looking for. So they took me back over the platinum auto where they had this nice 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I ended up putting 3000 down and about 400 on insurance. Drive off the lot BOOM ! Fast forward one month to my first insurance payment. Before I could even make my payment I was on *** insurance. I didnt think it was a big deal because insurance is insurance. WRONG WRONG WRONG. I feel like I was taken advantage of. I ended up paying my car note 2 months in advance this entire month. And Unfortunately my car was totaled in an accident. The *** insurance I was out on ONLY COVERED THEM. They told me I dont get nothing but out of the car contract. And I get nothing . Not even a temporary car for the months Ive already paid for. I didnt even get an apology. They didnt car because they was covered. Simple! The fact they did not explain to me the liability part. Or even consider to try and explain it to me. Dont like explaining things to me until I bring a 3rd party person and then them women want to act accordingly. The fact I didnt even pay them to insure me in the first place! I paid another company for damage and etc. for this very reason! And now Im left with nothing!!!!!!!!!! Like ************* quote was the most basic s*** ever. ************* only covered they a** they can keep there in house financing. And they customer service is worse than the ****Platinum Autoplex, LLC Response

I apologize for you not having been explained the *** coverage. However, even if you had your own full coverage insurance through a company of your choosing they would have done the same process. The insurance company would determine the value of the vehicle and the proceeds would be used towards your outstanding balance. In most cases the insurance valuation is less than what the consumer owes, so most consumers do not get any of the insurance proceeds.Review from Cymone J

Very shady people will scam you out your money. The vehicles they have on their lot are lemons and not even worth the money they asking for. The mechanic they have will lie to you and have you come back several times to get things fixed. I waisted to much money and time with them. Hope they will get shutdown soon.Review from Kalei M.

This place is the worst! Those people are rude. That lady *** she is in the front desk. We came to tell her an issue with the car she had her hand on her head the whole time and acted so nonchalantly! The car started having problems the first few days. It felt like it was gonna launch me or jerked me sometimes. I went and had a diagnostic done. All 4 tires were low on tread and coming apart and drivers belt was shredding! Also license plate bulbs were both out! I had to pay $1300 for that. Then 2 weeks later ac radio and windows go out. I take it to them. Their mechanic *** had it for not even 30 mins came back and said "it should be fixed FOR NOW". And that he taped some wires together. Right then and there I knew it was something going on. I then felt very uncomfortable about it all. But yet I still tried. Mind you this car was under warranty! Anyways! I had to take it to A REAL MECHANIC and they ended up replacing interface module and it worked for like 2 weeks and acted up again. Mind you I paid them $850. On top of two payments of $433. Plus $200 for insurance!!!!! Straight up robbery!!!!!! Anyways I tried to trade the car in and come to find out the registration was all bad. They said that back in 2021 the car was at ****** miles but yet they sold it to me at *****. Does that sound right to you????? Anyways the ac radio and windows still weren't working! So I ended up bringing the car back and they said it would be a few days to look at and well I didn't hear nothing for 2 weeks. And when they did. They wouldn't even let me test drive it to make sure it was all good . All they cared about was a payment! Well anyways I ended up doing some more research come to find out that car was salvaged! For MECHANICAL ISSUES. that is definitely illegal and they went against all contract! They should be put out of business!Review from Thugrenity23

They steal peoples birth certificates and name you seem crazy , this is a fraud company you spend thousands of dollars with them for them to find any reason to come pick up the car basically scam with with little to no creditPlatinum Autoplex, LLC Response

I assure you we follow all laws regarding consumer privacy and personal information. We never ask for birth certificates when extending credit to consumers. I'm not sure of the circumstances of how Platinum Autoplex became in possession of a birth certificate, but if it was left in a vehicle once we legally took possession then we notify the owner of said vehicle that they have 30 days to retrieve their personal belongings. After 30 days we dispose of all unclaimed property.Customer Response

You do not follow the laws regarding consumer privacy and personal information . If that was the case why did someone put a copy of my birth certificate in my personal belongings . I know what I had what it was with and nothing I had to do before you guys picked the car up has any needs of copying my birth certificate. Plus no one received any letters with a 30 day notice however you kept the belongings for up to 90 days with a birth certificate gone cashapp card gone . You gave everything else back except those few items and an ash tray . Also when trying to get the property in said amount of time I got the run around up to 90 days. I have all my proof and everything . And only reason anyone had the property then is because I threatened with a lawyer . Everyone keeps saying why would they keep it and what good would it do them. You know you can start a whole new identity with someones birth certificate not only that how do I know they didnt make a copy of my other personal items . The company is ***** all around if you see the other review you see its not just me , they dont do this to everyone but do scam and take advantage of anyone who comes into their way.Customer Response

Also, when picking up car you gave no one anytime to get their belongings out of the vehicle knowing you guys we're taking it back for good with no intentions on letting anyone get it back. But you have to wait for the said owner to tell any information when no one was asking any information knowing she was in jail which means someone had to come an get any belongings for her while she is incarcerated so at this point please make everything your saying make sense and add up.
