Rodo - Buy/Lease your next car

I used Rodo last week to buy a new car. I had tried over the past few months to purchase a car in person at dealerships local to me. For whatever reason, it always ended up being a run-around and I never ended up finding the right deal. I finally decided to try again and googled apps for car buying and stumbled across Rodo. I was not sure about it all but I decided to give it a try. I had tried other online car-buying tools in the past but found them to be annoying and not what was advertised. I expected the same with Rodo. Some of the negative reviews didn’t help either. However, I had nothing to lose so I signed up and started browsing cars. Fast forward and in less than 48 hours I was driving my new car home. The owner of Rodo even reached out to ask me about me experience. I don’t think I’ve ever written an app review but I felt this one deserved it. What was advertised was what I got and the service at Rodo and the dealership was nothing short of top notch. I would use Rodo again and I recommend the app. I think consumers should be informed and do their research and not just rely on the app to get you a stellar deal. You should know your credit, trade in value, money down, goal monthly payment- etc- before you start the process otherwise you will not be happy with any “deal”. Do your work- and let Rodo help! I’m glad I did! 👍🏼

Before actually using this app, I went on many forums and saw a lot of mixed reviews. Many said that “they’ll change the price on you last minute” and that “dealers use it to get you in the door” while that may be the case for a very small amount of Rodo users, that was the complete opposite of my experience. When you place an order you’ll be asked if you want Rodo concierge or not. Definitely go with the concierge. This is basically when a member of the Rodo team acts as the middle man between you and the dealer, and this helped me a lot. I started my order right when the US and NY went on lock down due to the covid-19 pandemic. My Rodo concierge was with me every step of the way and was alway there to answer questions or give me updates on the situation. The first dealer I chose actually did try to do a “bait and switch” on me and my concierge caught that and immediately let me know and found a new dealer for me with the same vehicle. I found a great deal on this app while scrolling through it, and everything was super legit and nothing was changed on me. The prices are made by the dealers, so whatever they may be is out of Rodos control. Also like any dealership, every month comes with new prices due to different deals, incentives, sales, and rebates so I f you keep searching with the app you’ll find what works for you. Overall the Rodo did well by me and I really appreciate them!

This app was absolutely amazing. I was concerned since my lease was up during this quarantine and I wasn’t able to get to a dealer. I gave Rodo a shot. The app is extremely clear and easy to use. You can shop around and get prices on a huge inventory of vehicles without any hassle. I loved that you could adjust the down payments to see what monthly prices were possible or not. You can also make offers of your own and see if the dealer accepts them. The responses were prompt and clear. The best part of my experience, that I was most impressed with, was when I called to speak with someone and was put in contact with Steven Lowe. He was absolutely amazing. He advocated for me with dealers to get me the price I wanted. He was knowledgeable, used all his resources, and searched multiple dealerships until he got what I wanted. He contacted me every single day to see how I was feeling and what I was thinking about the offers and how I wanted to proceed. Once the deal was made, he was extremely thorough in following through with all of the details with paperwork and returning my old lease. He guided me every step of the way. He had no connection whatsoever to my old lease but still cared and made sure I got it back safely and with as little charges as possible. I was so impressed with his care and concern. He is kind, honest, and capable. I will be coming back to him with all my cars in the future.
