PITTSBURGH — She bought a car she thought was safe for her family, but says it turned out to be anything but.
Haley Blackburn bought a BMW X1 a year and a half ago from Carvana in Bridgeville. It was in her family’s budget at $20,000.
Since then, she says she’s racked up $15,000 in repairs, but that was before total engine failure. Now, the car can’t even be driven and it’s been parked outside Blackburn’s home for months.
“I’m a working mom with two kids and I’m already knee-deep thousands of dollars with this car,” Blackburn tells 11 Investigates.
Coming up on Channel 11 News at 5:30, she shares her warning for others and what Carvana agreed to do after 11 Investigates got involved.
