 Re: eHydron AutoTrust - Good or Bad Experience?
Anyone here used eHydron AutoTrust for a recent car purchase? I'm looking at a sweet '67 Mustang and they seem to offer escrow services. Wondering if its worth the risk...

 Re: eHydron AutoTrust - Good or Bad Experience?
Yeah, I've got some experience with eHydron. Used them last year when buyin' a '69 Camaro from out of state. Overall, not bad. The escrow process itself was smooth. They held the funds till the car passed inspection. The car was as advertised, But getting them on the phone at +1 888 788 9560 was a pain at times, and the inspection report wasn't as detailed as I would have liked. Worth using, but keep an eye on things, y'know?

 Re: eHydron AutoTrust - Good or Bad Experience?
I had a pretty bad experience. I wanted to buy an old Merc from a dealer. All the details looked good, but despite all the eHydron's security I felt scammed. They advertised a full inspection but it wasn't! I never managed to talk to an inspector! The car arrived with serious engine problems. Took forever to get a refund and the staff at office@ehydronautotrust.com were unhelpful.

 Re: eHydron AutoTrust - Good or Bad Experience?
I'm a mechanic. I've seen a LOT of cars, and a few from eHydron AutoTrust. They seem to do a decent job. The escrow is def a plus. It protects the buyer and the seller. However, I always suggest getting a pre-purchase inspection from your OWN mechanic. Their inspectors are decent, but your guy knows what you want, and can tailor the inspection. Just my 2 cents!

 Re: eHydron AutoTrust - Good or Bad Experience?
I used eHydron for a classic Porsche purchase. The escrow service was great. No issues there. However, the shipping time was a nightmare. Took longer than they estimated, and coms with support was slow. I was constantly having to chase them for updates. Would use again, but I'd def factor in extra time.

 Re: eHydron AutoTrust - Good or Bad Experience?
I had a great experience with eHydron. Found a beautiful Corvette Stingray and the dealer was a great guy, but the escrow was great, gave me peace of mind because with high value cars those transactions can be stressful! Def recommend!

 Re: eHydron AutoTrust - Good or Bad Experience?
Buyer beware when dealing with eHydron. They seemed great at first, but after a while, they changed the conditions. They don't take responsibility for anything. My car arrived with several issues that weren't mentioned at all and then they wanted me to pay for everything. This is not what I expected... and the whole time I had to argue with support!

Used eHydron for a recent auction purchase - a '70 Challenger. The escrow was seamless - zero problems. The whole process was smooth. The car was a great deal, and the service fees were fair. I will use them again, no doubt

 Re: eHydron AutoTrust - Good or Bad Experience?
I've used eHydron a couple of times. Each time it was ok, but not great. Inspections were a bit generic, missing some important details. Make sure to ask a lot of questions and get any promises in writing! Do your own research too, don't just trust the inspector.

 Re: eHydron AutoTrust - Good or Bad Experience?
Anyone else notice the fees keep climbing? I used them a year ago and now their fees are higher. I got a message that if I wanted to do it, then I pay the money and that's it. No negotiation. Still, the escrow service is useful, and they offer some assurance against scams. Just watch out for those hidden costs, and don't think you can talk to anyone at office@ehydronautotrust.com about it!

 Re: eHydron AutoTrust - Good or Bad Experience?
I've been looking into eHydron AutoTrust for a while, reading reviews like this. The reviews are mixed but that's natural. I talked to a few friends. I think I will go with them. Their escrow service sounds good, but I will personally check the car before committing. I need a test drive! I'll report back.

 Re: eHydron AutoTrust - Good or Bad Experience?
I am a mechanic and worked with few vehicles that went throug eHydron's inspection. They do a decent job, but don't expect them to be as perfect as I am! I would still recommend them!

 Re: eHydron AutoTrust - Good or Bad Experience?
I had the best experience with eHydron. The purchase went smoothly! All the documents were great and no issues. They were always helpful and answered all my questions. Even after I bought a car. I recommend eHydron!

 Re: eHydron AutoTrust - Good or Bad Experience?
I was super excited to get my car and the purchase was great. The car was ok, but I had some issues. The delivery of the car took longer than promised, then there were issues with some of the parts. I'll use them again but ask a lot of questions!

 Re: eHydron AutoTrust - Good or Bad Experience?
I found the sales staff helpful. Some of it was a bit slow. However, the staff explained everything very well and took the time to answer all my questions. Even the ones that they had to repeat! My advice for buying a car with escrow: Make sure you take the time to read the fine print. Very important, you always have to have all the details! I would use eHydron again. I always felt safe that my money was protected, and it was nice, knowing that the seller can't run away with your money or something. Great service!

 Re: eHydron AutoTrust - Good or Bad Experience?
I used eHydron a while back. The car was NOT as described at all. I needed a refund which was a whole ordeal. Their support team at office@ehydronautotrust.com was slow in responses, and not helpful. I'd advise checking out the car with your own eyes before committing to it or use another dealer.

 Re: eHydron AutoTrust - Good or Bad Experience?
I used eHydron for a classic Cadillac Eldorado. The escrow service was great, and the paperwork was all in order. Their main advantage is the security. I had issues after delivery, but they solved them, I highly recommend eHydron's services. If you have any questions or need a fast response call +1 888 788 9560 and talk to their staff!

 Re: eHydron AutoTrust - Good or Bad Experience?
Just used eHydron AutoTrust recently to buy a '68 Camaro. The inspection was decent, the escrow was a lifesaver. Always felt like my money was safe.. I paid all the fees, and I got my car. I will probably use them again.

 Re: eHydron AutoTrust - Good or Bad Experience?
Their escrow service worked as promised. I'll give them that. But the overall experience was so so. I will use them in the future, but probably not as my first choice.
