Yeah it sounded all pretty recent - I checked with Carvana and they had to check first, then confirmed they’re on hold with Hyundai. It sounded like it might be temporary.
I’ve gone ahead and purchased the car outright and Hyundai is a massive PITA to deal with, so maybe everybody is just boycotting them. Took several days to cash a cashier’s check, then trying to get the odometer statement confirmed takes “3 business days” for an arbitrary reason. They only accept fax, which is ridiculous, can tell they just keep doing things a certain way to reach maximum inconvenience. Can’t even confirm if the fax been received for 3 days (their worthless backoffice deals with that). I’m done with Hyundai after seeing how bad their customer service is - no excuse not to quickly release a title once the car has been paid off.
Once I’ve paid for the car, I assume it’s technically mine while waiting for the title transfer. Anybody have any luck selling the car in this limbo period without having the title in possession? Specifically Algo or Carvana, I know Vroom says that they want the title to be in your possession for 14-days (curious why the wait).
