So what has Carmax said they would do about it if anything? Have you approached them about warranty? Your out of luck on the 5 day buyback but they have another standard warranty (90 days I think). Since this is a 2008 it should still be covered under manufacturers warranty. I would have the dealer verify if this is due to flood or other factors namely leaks from all the rain. One key to check if this was a flood car is pull out all the seatbelts and smell them and check for wetness. If someone reconditioned a "flood vehicle" they rarely go to extremes to replace that. So just to be clear you didnt check the trunk out prior to purchase? They should have walked the checklist through to show u there was a spare tire and you all activated the XM radio to get the signal?
