I was involved in an accident that totalled my car because I was rear ended on the freeway. Mind you, there is damage to the bumper because of that, but the back windshield was not busted, their people did that!
I went to the yard assigned through my insurance, which was Copart Auto Auction located at
7519 Woodman Ave.
Van Nuys, California 91405 1509
My car was delivered to them around May 24th.
I called ahead to let them know I will be coming in to get the remainder of the stuff out of my car. I came in on May 31st.
I already felt upset knowing my car was at a yard along with other junk cars where I felt like it didn't belong because it meant so much to me. It was my first car I purchased.
I was waiting for what felt like 30 minutes in an office filled with at least 10 people busy on their computers ignoring people with no hello or welcome greeting at all.
To top it off, I only had 2 people in front of me. When I was finally noticed, a lady named G was playing stupid about my car not being there or them not being able to find it.
Luckily, I have a low jack on my car and was able to show her that it was indeed there. Down to the exact date, and time it arrived, and where exactly on the lot it was located.
Her demeanor quickly changed and she got scared and panicked when she found out I could track it. When they finally located it and brought it around for me to see.
To my horror, it had been vandalized, the back windshield shattered with some glass inside the trunk, and some of my property was stolen.
They took my tools, stole the spare tire, tire rod, ripped out my trunk subwoofer, and destroyed all of my custom seat covers.
I just wish I had a camera to catch who did it, but then again, those greedy rogues would have stolen that as well!
I am already in the process of trying to heal my physical wounds, but now thanks to this trash company and the people that run it compounding my pain, I have emotional wounds as well.
Going back to the lady at the front desk that goes by "G". She was so cold hearted. When I told her what I had just saw from my car, she was very nonchalant about it.
When I was trying to gather what little property I could salvage, she had the nerve to ask me do I know what type of car I want to get next, like my current one didn't mean anything to me.
I put my blood, sweat, in tears into maintaining my car and making sure I stay on top of the payments, all without any help from anyone.
When I asked her, is this how you guys treat people's property, she didn't say anything, but give me a blank soulless stare.
I hope whoever reads this knows that what I am saying to be the truth and that you do not support this terribly run business. I hope these numerous complaints will give them a wake up call.
If everyone cares to check, look up Copart on the BBB website, their headquarters is in Dallas,
14185 Dallas Parkway
Suite 400
Dallas, TX 75254
they are NOT an accredited business. Their rating is very low on there as well to the point where they have so many complaints Better Business Bureau can't show them all.
To the owner or whoever responds to these complaints, don't bother giving me the same generic response you give to all the other people that complain on here.
You can keep your two cent opinion because you probably need it, just like your people kept my tools and subwoofer, which one of them probably installed in their car because their sound system is trash just like your company and the people that work there.
