Disappointing experience with Ship A Car Direct
I had a disappointing experience with Ship A Car Direct. I chose to use Ship A Car Direct based on ChatGPT's recommendation. I booked my vehicle shipment through them, and ALEDI LLC was assigned as the carrier. A few days before the pickup date, ALEDI contacted me and said their truck had a "clutch failure" and they could not pick up my vehicle within the agreed pickup window. I immediately contacted Ship A Car Direct regarding the situation, and their representative told me that they should be able to find another carrier quickly. Unfortunately, they failed to secure a replacement carrier before the pickup window ended, and I eventually had to cancel the shipment and start over with another broker. This caused significant delays and inconvenience for me. Communication was also frustrating. There were several times when I called or messaged but could not reach anyone, and there were also times when I was told someone would call me back but never received a call. They did refund my deposit after I canceled, which I appreciate. But in my case, they did not do much beyond what I would expect from an ordinary broker. When the carrier they assigned couldn't fulfill the order, I needed them to step in and solve the problem, but that didn't happen. Based on my experience, I would not use Ship A Car Direct again.
