Wish I had known
June 4, 2019

Love the concept and love my car. The only issue I have is that my car came with 1 fab/key and no one told me til I had already paid over $2000 deposit and drove 2 hours to pick it up. I paid almost $300 to buy a new fab and then VW wanted to charge me an additional $150 to program the fab. Luckily the kind gentleman in service learned of my situation and didn't charge me for programming. I know the company is fairly new and they're are issues. Had I known I would have to dish out additional $$ for a backup key

Jeff was amazing at the Dublin location! He answered all of my questions and helped me find the perfect car to support my rideshare needs. The car is impeccably clean! Will definitely be a long term customer! -Connor

I downloaded the app it looked super interesting but not enough info for me to submit personal info right off the back. I love the concept of the business but need more info. Making monthly payments will i own the car at some point? Or am i renting? Also noticed wayyy to many negative issues with customer service and therefore making me change my mind altogether. If i see fair get it together in a few years maybe i will revisit the idea but in the meantime i pass.

This app enabled me to get into my very first car with extreme ease and without any hassles from a dealership. Being able to do everything on the phone and simply arrange pickup truly transforms the experience of what getting a car is like. I spent several hours with my wife in a dealership for her last car and the same when I went with my nephew for his. And that was with a preagreed price and deal. F&I still beat us up for a while going back and forth. I'm excited to pickup my car this weekend. Can't wait!

If I could give a negative 100 rating you don't see that in your system?" He stated that NOTHING had been done mind you I am still waiting for my refund! This same person called me back on February 14 and said that he was still looking for answers. He called me again on February 15 and at this point I refused to answer my phone and he asked to call them back. I called and the new representative said they didn't even have record that my start payment was taken out of my account and asked that I send a screenshot of my agreement. How sad is this? What kind of business practices are these? I am STILL waiting on my refund and they have one more week to get it to me! This has been the worst experience in customer service I have EVER had! I usually don't write reviews like this but I want to warn the public not to engage this business as I do not want anyone to go through what I have!"

It's about time!
September 7, 2017

Finally the whole getting a car process has become simplified! Not being locked in a lease and being able to choose the car I wanted and check out all from my phone... thank you people for finally figuring it out. I've been waiting a very long time for this!

Fair is Awesome!
September 7, 2019

It's the people the hire! Everyone I have worked with at Fair has been incredible and so knowledgeable. Particularly want to give a shout out to Dee Dee and Cody at the Glendale station in CA. Both these folks have been extremely helpful and should be given raises immediately!

I have never seen unprofessional people in business like FAIR. I made a reservation 4 days prior and when pick up day came Goodyear retained the car for another day and a half. All this why they can't explain anything to me. I returned the car because it was worse than what I thought. The worst part is them refusing to pay security deposit of $181 and it has been over 14 days now but they claim I wait for the bank. If I were to advise anyone to find a rental companyI would advise you to please stay away from FAIR"

Horrendous.
August 15, 2019

I ordered a vehicle through Fair and provided the down payment as well as first monthly payment which totaled about $2000. I was informed two days before my scheduled pick up date that the car had been sold and was no longer available. When I called them to try and work something out

I've been having really mixed experience using Fair. If you're interested in my experience expecting to get the car before 4pm and try it out because Fair claimed I can pick up the car once I got there. However the dealer told me that they forgot to bring the car for smog check so they had to do that first. When I got the car it was after 6pm. And when I drove it back home on highway I found that when the car reach to speed 60+ mph it shakes so hard like a washing machine and it's not safe to drive. I tried to call Fair customer service on that day for a refund. I tried for an hour but no one answered me. Then I called on the second day

Beyond terrible
July 23, 2019

Look this app is the worst - I've been trying to rent with it for months etc. The experience is awful the support people mean well but can't help the pricing is probably illegal because there is a price on site that isn't in app and they can't tell you why the price is the way it is. If you can do anything with your life besides using this app do it."

Great concept
January 10, 2020

And doesn't offer basic app or site features. Frustrating. I dislike app A LOT. I did lease a car - process was easy just getting car is u clear delayed lacked key information and now that I want to explore anther car low inventory and difficult to search other cities to check their inventory unless I use my computer and access site. On site not showing me pricing. All around it's a frustrating user experience. I can't stand the app."

No Final Price Displayed
September 7, 2018

It displays based on monthly payments and I could not find the final price or calculate it based on how many payments were expected. The lowest I can make the year filter do is 0-2014. So if you want a car that's 1997-2004

This Fair program is a good option for those that are doing Uber full time. I've been using a Ford Fusion hybrid for Uber for 3 months now. The process was pretty easy. I looked at the selection of vehicles in the app asking for my phone number and sending me another four digit code number. I can't call customer service because the phone number is inside the app! Fair please fix this! I can't drive for Uber without a car and I'm not making any money! Even deleting the app and redownloading doesn't help."

More than Fair...
August 21, 2019

The Fair App is the by far the best way to get a new car. The app itself is great and very easy to use. I had picked out my car and got my pricing in no time. The greatest thing about Fair though is the people that work there. They take customer service to a whole new level. You never hang up the phone thinking these people don't care or it's just a job to them. They are all amazing!

Identification block
January 3, 2019

That app requires your ID at the beginning and doesn't offer an in app viewing of the cars it offers that website but that's not a fair deal as they get the download in their download counter don't download this app if you don't want to be identified immediately without having time to get to know the company

I LOVE IT!
September 20, 2018

I've had several cars in the past and this by far the way to go car shopping! You shop through the app looking for the car you want it was never available for lease. I think once a car is sold the app should be updated daily to let new customers know. That way they're not wasting their time looking for a car that is no longer available."

Highly recommend
April 27, 2018

I can highly recommend this car service wholeheartedly which is not to say it was without any problems. Mostly issues arose at the dealer when picking up the car because staff had no idea what to do. Got major runaround until manager got involved. The upside is that I got a great car at a very reasonable price and I couldn't be happier.

Fair is awesome
December 11, 2018

I had just sold my car and was looking for a new one when I decided to give Fair a try. Super happy that I did! I got a great car that I can give back anytime (who knows where life will take me) and the price I wanted. Didn't have to do anything except sign on my phone and then show up to get the car. Big shout out to Matt Dowley for some excellent customer service too.

AMAZING!
March 6, 2019

Fair is a brilliant alternative to long term locked in leasing! I started a commission only position and didn't want to be locked into a 3 year lease. I have a friend who used fair and she suggested checking it out. You will NOT be disappointed! The app is really easy to use
