RICHMOND, Va. - The stories continue coming in regarding the auto industry’s efforts to recruit technicians. This time, it’s CarMax pulling out all the stops, with the used-car retailer undertaking what it describes as the biggest technician and detailer hiring effort in its history.

Why would some 30 year old teenager want to go out and get all greasy when he can stay in mommy’s basement and play games to kill time and go out and protest to get exercise?
There are a lot of jobs out there. Now Lindsey Graham is coming to the stage.
You can say that again!...

My apologies for the multiple post; don’t know what happened.
You clicked to many times. lol
We are watching you...
I wonder if they are about to have about 4000 Hyundais which will need refurbishing?
I did not know that Car Max cars were NOt sold “as is” and just passed through Car Max from the prior owners.
I wonder who is inspecting the quality of repairs that Car Max does.
I would rather deal with an as is car, with the condition of 1st checking it out with my mechanic and then coming to an agreemwent on the price - than taking another outfits word that “they fixed everything” and accepting their price.
A good mechanic is going to do more than just listen to how the car sounds, in idle or when driven.
It has always seemed to me that the asking prices for CarMax cars are grossly overpriced.

couldn’t have been more pleased with my experience with CarMax and the truck was in perfect condition and they will fix anything that goes wrong quickly if you get it home and find something you aren’t satisfied with.. plus my CarMax in Columbia SC made multiple contacts with me after the purchase to make sure the vehicle was still to my every expectation
I and others in my family have purchased at least six used cars from CarMax over the years and we have had no problems with any of them.
My experience was TOTALLY DIFFERENT: they REFUSED TO FIX A SIMPLE PROBLEM that would have cost them only $30.
I made many calls, and they simply refused to speak with me.
PATRONIZE CARMAX AT YOUR OWN RISK! You have been WARNED!
I am glad it has been a good experience for your family. Even if I went to Car Fax, I would insist on my having the car inspected by my mechanic before I signed on the dotted line.
