### 1/5 — Don’t trust

*2024-11-10*

Stopped scanning my car after 2 years it keeps saying user canceled when my check engine light has been on for a month now.

### 1/5 — Notification never clear

*2024-07-28*

This doesn’t auto sync with my vehicle. I don’t want to manually click sync every day it so. 

The title reason is that in IOS I have 4 notifications that are unable to clear. No in app notifications. No missing configurations (e.g., tire wear). Just an unbearable 4 on the app on my homescreen. 

This app hasn’t been updated in 2+ years? Time to uninstall.

### 1/5 — Does not detect Check Engine Light

*2023-06-01*

I have had the check engine light come on at least 6 times in 6 weeks and this app never detected a problem, even though the dealer and a hand held scanner found two fault does.

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2023-05-12*

Very disappointed! This is the second occasion where my 17 year old son has been driving the car and the check engine light comes on and CarRx doesn't notify me and the scan says "no problems detected" when in reality the issue was a "major driving impact" issue.   Waste of money!

### 1/5 — Tells you nothing

*2023-04-25*

Sitting in my car with the check engine light on and the app tells me nothing. Absolute scam.

### 5/5 — Works great!

*2022-07-01*

Pretty cool feature!

### 5/5 — Love the notifications

*2022-06-24*

Tells me when my vehicle has an check engine light on and what it means. Also notifies me if there is a recall for my car.

### 1/5 — How to add second car??

*2022-05-01*

We have two cars in theft patrol like others have also mentioned and there seems to be no easy way to add the second car. Please help

### 2/5 — How do I add a vehicle?

*2022-02-19*

We have two cars with Theft Patrol installed and a tile to connect to CarRx but only one of the cars will show in CarRx and no obvious way to add the other.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2020-11-12*

Super easy to use and provides security for my family regarding service and vehicle condition .   Well done .
