"saved search" functionality doesn't work?

Asked by Sai Dec 24, 2020 at 01:18 PM

Question type: General

I tried to create a search for used cars, added some filters (years, radius, trim,
color, etc).

When I click on "save search" - it says it's saved, but when I go to my account
/ saved searches page, it doesn't reflect the filters that I setup.
I created an older saved search which I said "delete", but it doesn't get deleted
and the my account / saved searches page always shows the old saved
search.

This has been time consuming and frustrating to use - does anyone have
experience setting up the saved searches?

Having the same issue. Used to work great but no longer does. Turned off all searches for now and using Edmunds instead until this gets fixed.

Yes, the filters are fundamental part of the search, and it's very irritating that they won't save. Should be an easy fix for them. Makes me use the site less

No more cargurus for me because of the saved search feature. Switched to Autotrader.

Yup I’m done with them. I bought my wife’s car with their saved search. I saw the exact car I wanted with an email alert at like 7am. Contacted the dealer, told them I would be there that evening to buy that car, and that’s what I did. Went home that night with a new car (wife went from civic to q8 lol). Now the saved search saves some parameters but the model year doesn’t get saved. I want a suburban that’s 2015 or newer and I keep getting a bunch of retarded emails with older suburbans.
