User Reviews

User reviews are largely negative about TrueCar, focusing on privacy concerns and user-experience issues. Recurrent problems include dealer solicitations after sharing contact details; navigation issues with no back button and loss of filters when viewing cars; frequent bugs and UI instability; misleading pricing that requires contact to see real prices; and missing filtering options like engine size/type and the ability to save searches. A minority report positive past experiences or deals, but overall sentiment calls for fixes.

Pros

Some users report successful car purchases through TrueCar without issues.
Some users recall getting amazing deals when TrueCar first started.
A reviewer described the app as easy to use.

Cons

Dealers contact you immediately after sharing contact details, leading to privacy concerns.
No back button or poor navigation; returning to results loses filters.
Frequent bugs, crashes, slow performance, and UI instability.
Pricing practices mislead (real prices hidden behind a contact gate, and confusing discounts).
Lack of essential filters (engine size/type) and no ability to save searches.

Recent reviews

The app works ok on an iPhone, but doesn’t work well on an iPad. I really like the layout and the search format on the TrueCar app. The initial presentation of vehicle information is easy to navigate and read. Unfortunately, viewing images is limited to a scrolling “film strip”interface. There is no isolation of a single image and no zooming of an image to check details - which I would consider important on an app meant to sell things. I would be the first to say that CarGurus interface is going to be more cluttered, but images can be isolated and viewed one at a time. There is no most annoying thing, there is no returning to your search once you select a vehicle to look at in detail on the iPad. I have tried many times to use the “return to search” link to have the app just sit there - for a long time, until I click on “new search” and start my search again. This only happened to me on the iPad app. Every competitor app I have used has this ability. The app also lacks a mechanism to log into an account from the start on a new device. This is a problem with the website as well. You have to “Like” a car or save a search to be presented with a prompt to enter your email address then a confirming email is sent to you. Then your account is added. You are allowed to “Sign Out” once in.. it’s just strange there’s no option to “Sign In”. This is available on every competitor app I have used. The app has a payment calculation section separate from the vehicle search where a person can input their desired payment, credit rating and trade in and the app will calculate the maximum price of the vehicle you should be looking for. It I only persists in this section and doesn’t show up in vehicle listings. CarGurus keeps this information persistent and easily editable through the vehicle browsing experience. Lastly, there’s no page to report issues. I tried to report an issue through Apple’s App Store and just ended up at a “Page not Found” form.
