Colbren ** was my salesman. He was very helpful and knowledgeable through every step of the process. He helped me get the truck I wanted. I would recommend him to anyone looking to buy a vehicle. There was nothing negative I could say about the whole experience. I would recommend Drivetime to anyone looking to get a used vehicle.

I had a awesome experience at the St. Paul, MN location. Michael C. took the time to walk me through the process and made the car buying experience a positive one. I always dreaded car shopping as most dealers don't have patience or time unless you're putting big money down. I highly recommend Drive Time.

Updated on 08/22/2024: Day 12th still don't have a new used car, being jerked around at the Cassat Ave location and also customer service had to drive 40 miles to get here for my wife to sign another paper, could had it done day one and this paperwork takes 7 days, before that we might hear something about the car we are trying to buy, called several times and most of the time no one here has a clue what's going on even with all the stuff that they wanted, and if I could I would not even rate this as a one star, and the ads on tv are a joke, full of lies.
Original: Was approved for a vehicle Cherokee Patriot, my wife and I have good credit. Come to find out my wife credit had fraudulent activity and needed a bank statement and social security card. I gave and sent over what they wanted then when we get home I had fraudulent activity and needed a copy of my social and phone bill. Sent it to him to call me. Never happen. Then I get a phone call. Congratulations me about being approved and how was my experience. I said a scale from 1 to 10 it was a double 0 and also spoke to a manager there at cassata ave, no help then got another call. Said I miss my appointment today. I said it was Monday, still driving in my old car.

The experience overall wasn't bad. I bought a 2019 Buick Encore on a Saturday August 10, 2024. I returned on Monday to report my hazard lights not working. The sales lady I worked with to buy the vehicle stated we checked the lights. I told her yes we did, but never the hazard lights. She said if the turn signals work, then the hazard lights should have worked, they DON'T. Today is Tuesday the 13th and I still don't have hazard lights on my vehicle.

I purchased a car last week, I brought my husband in with me. He was saying how easy it was to purchase a car at DriveTime. John & crew were amazing, he keep giving me different options and was great because I wanted to test drive a lot of vehicles.

Day 1: While I was waiting for the temp tag I noticed the tire was low. As the salesperson was putting air in the tire it was leaving out but somehow he managed to get the air back in. 5 minutes after leaving the tire became completely flat, stuck on side the road with no spare tire. I had to pay out of pocket to a mobile mechanic to change my tire. Well come to find out the stem valve was bad lol. So I had to get a used tire and a new stem valve. Day 2: The car stalled and I had to get it towed all out of my pocket. PLEASE DON'T BUY A CAR FROM DRIVE TIME THE WORST EXPERIENCE EVER!!!!

In May they sold me an suv 2023 with 7,000 miles on it and after two weeks the transmission, oil pump, and other major components on this truck went out.

I am not going to bash anyone by using their names. Yet I shopped in Athens Ga and at this time I’m not fully satisfied to say the least. I went with the hopes that I could choose between a few cars yet that fell off the table. I had a co-buyer go With me and just because he used an online bank they said he would need more proof to show his residence. So I had spent Over $100 to Uber to the location and been without a car for over 2 months. So next I was pulling up every account I’ve ever had to prove more of my personal income. So then I’m told I’m going to be limited on basically every car I had wanted to look at. No cars would be under $2-3,000 down. Yet my income was at or above $2600 or more. So now I’m told that I can pick from the only one I had driven or a few others that I wouldn’t have ever bought. So I’m now driving a car that has literally no horsepower. I’m given an (APR) of 29.40% and add ons were added without me asking for them.
So now I’ve got one of the cheapest cars on the lot with an outrageous payment and outrageous apr rate. $15,000 car could end up costing over $41,000!!! I’ve had it one week and I was in the shop today. Due to standing water in the floorboard, a moldy smell and something blowing out my Vents. Mind you this is a 2019 model With just over 65,000 miles now. I’m in disbelief that they had added the add ons without even asking me. Then acted like they was giving me the option to keep or remove the warranty’s. I felt like they was going to assure I had no car at all if I removed the add ons. So now I’m stuck in a car with a extremely tiny motor. A outrageous payment and Apr rate. I had hoped to get a car that I really wanted. I had hoped that someone would have made that possible. I don’t see that they will make this right even if I call. I’ve messaged and I get nowhere at all.

This is first time I can actually say the process went in order no unexpected changes. I did the application online and it said, "Congratulations you've been approved." I was skeptical so I called and customer service stated the same thing. They said we will make you an appointment bring documents choose your vehicle and that's it. Still skeptical I went to the appointment and I had an awesome salesman Shak (Owings **) and it wasted no time checking my info and he explained everything. I chose the vehicle test drove, did paperwork and I drove away with a ride.

I know car buying can be a task for all parties involved, but I truly feel like my car buying was a waste of time for Eric **. I applied for a credit app 6/30 and got my car 8/1, and with every individual that contacted me or I was in contact with from Kurt, Joshua and online sales representatives, he was the only one I felt uneasy with. Sure if he was new and was uncomfortable with the questions I asked, seek help I wouldn’t have mind everyone has to gain knowledge of their product, but with as long as I waited to get a car in my 14 hour days surely including riding the bus for so long, at least have some patience to answer or get answers to questions that I was curious about and I felt he didn’t have that. Maybe my experience would have been different if he wasn’t rude and impatient.

On April 19th, I bought a 21 elantra at Drivetime with about 51k miles on it. They sold it to me without a cabin air filter or an engine air filter. The key did not fit the cylinder for my car and now not even 3 months later as I’m due for an oil change. I cannot get one because the oil filter cup housing is damaged and was sealed with a RTV/JB weld. Firestone (which is a vendor for the silverrock warranty) refuses to change the oil unless that part is replaced and drivetime is refusing to accommodate the service because I’m outside the 30-day/1,500-mile limited warranty. This is a part that was damaged before purchase but the issue was not discovered until it was due for an oil change.
There was also no engine splash shield and can’t put one on because under the car where it would be bolted on is also damaged. The navigation touch screen has random & constant ghost taps and swipe events because it was damaged on the top left panel. They did not even give me a spare tire but gave me a fix a flat kit to compensate. The main thing I need is for the oil cup housing to be replaced because it prevents a much needed oil change which could be detrimental to the vehicle. It should not be an out of pocket expense for me since it was damaged and attempted to fixed with a sealant before I purchased it but drivetime continues to deny assisting me in the matter.
I took the car to Firestone within the 30 days and the cabin air filter and engine air filter was placed but the diagnosis for the oil cup housing was missed until I went to a different Firestone for a simple diagnosis/battery check. They advised it will need to be replaced to do an oil change. My check engine light is now on and I don’t know what to do. This car has been nothing but problems for me and drivetime does not care to alleviate my concerns or meet the needs and standard requirements of the vehicle that they sold me.

Great team over at the West Chicago location. Anthony, my salesperson, was professional, friendly, and knowledgeable! Zay, the manager, also was very supportive. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to buy a car. Anthony, went out of his way to make the sale by personally trying to clean a smudge on the dashboard. He kept the transaction loose and not a hint of any "hard sell" tactics.

The car that was sold to me literally needed an engine o2 sensor cam shaft sensor, oil change, flex pipe tune up, new tire like it’s ridiculous and you all should be ashamed of yourselves for selling people cars that’s not even worth the price.

Bought a truck in August 2023, check engine light came on on day 2, called local office to inquire on the 3 day return policy, we were told no take it shop since we purchased silverrock extended warranty, a month later we get truck back.. too late to return now so we suck it up, biggest mistake ever. The truck goes into shop for 6 weeks at time, mechanic changes various things, we get truck back within 3 days it's back in shop, we've had truck for 11 months and only put 3000 miles on it. Water pump, all sensors, pcm replaced, lojack removed due to installed incorrectly, wiring changed, it's in the shop now at the Dodge dealer and the mechanic has no clue why the truck will not run, gas to the floor and will only go 5mph sputters then dies, no codes to diagnose with. Arrigo Dodge said new engine needed, silverrock said no. I will never deal with Drive Time or their affiliates again.

My family's experience with DriveTime has been a nightmare to say the least. They gave us a car that broke down 4 days later only to replace it with a car that broke down 30 days later. Now all the red-tape hidden stuff in the contract is coming out and we're unable to be reimbursed for days off work, rentals, etc. At every level they've acted like we didn't just buy a lemon from them. She was so happy when she made this purchase and now that has been replaced with sadness. Come to find out I have two more friends who had the same experience with Drivetime.
If buying a car from them is a choice, I encourage you to have someone service it immediately when you get home. Make sure it's within that five days or they will stiff you along with SilverRock. Watch out for the 5 day return policy used by Drivetjme and the 30 or 45,000 crap Silver Rock uses to stiff you. This seems to be the case for all dealerships which is why they have so much paperwork. Or, sign each piece of work with a line and not your actual signature. We gotta be just as conniving with these people.

I feel your people are liars and tell customers what they want to hear just to get them to the dealership! I was told I was approved and was about to make a 3 hour drive to one of your stores to purchase a car. I decided to initiate a chat online so I could ask if I was for sure approved before I drove so far to just be told no. I was rest assured that "yes" I am totally approved. I was then told I could go to the local Drivetime dealership to fill out the paperwork so that the car 3 hrs away would not be sold before I could get there. I was getting this car for my daughter and wanted to make sure we got it so I did as suggested and went to the local dealership.
After getting there I was told, "No, you're not approved"....I was like, you have to be kidding me!!! I don't know what I would have done had I made that trip to be told this AFTER I made it my business to verify I was really actually approved!! They are liars!! So my daughter's fiance decided to apply and was approved for 0 percent down or 95 dollars....he is paid daily by his boss and gets 1099 at the end of the year but has record of his pay through Venmo, he was told that all he had to do was show proof of pay on his Venmo....he told Cam at the dealership how much he makes daily and she even looked at the venmo, she calculated what he makes and wad told that he could get the car he wanted for 95 dollars down....so at this time, hopes were once again high for getting the car.
He had to go back there, which I forgot to tell you is not a short drive to the local dealership either, it's 1 1/2 hours, but he had to make a return trip because he didn't have his license with him...once he went back he was told, Oops our bad, your actually going to need 3000 dollars down because taxes have to be taken out of the pay you get and that drops your monthly income down too far! Now this girl Cam said she has worked there for 8 years and is a manager, so why would she neglect to let us know that before he left the first time....she definitely does not do her job thoroughly, that is something she should have told him! She said she has worked with people who get paid through venmo before so this should not have been new to her, right!
I am currently buying a vehicle through drivetime, but I will NEVER again buy one from that lot!!! Ian, the gentleman that helped me buy my first car was so much more knowledgeable and new how to do his job. I feel the online chat person and Cam were just deceivers and do not care for their customers...they just tell you what you want to hear!!! Bad bad bad experience....bottom line...don't believe them when they say you are approved!! P.s. I would understand if they said pre-approved!!

This is my second time buying from DriveTime, but first time buying from the Madison TN location. I was between a rock and a hard place.

I was greeted in a friendly and professional manner the (I believe Assistant Manager) remembered me from our phone call (I believe I was crying when I called) and worked fast to get me picking a car and test driving. From there the GM (I think) was kind and courteous as he worked to get me off and driving.
The whole process was easy, the only real work I had to do was upload my driver's license and insurance card from my phone and even that was simple. Then all that was left was signing on the dotted line and leaving with a new to me car and a very happy 12yo (he loves the A/C).

My partner and I don’t have the best credit, no history with financing but it was an issue here.

Joseph helped up pick out our vehicle, do a test drive and calculated the down payment & biweekly payments. He was very patient and helpful with helping us get promotions. Austin took care of us during our finial visit where we completed our paperwork, paid the down payment and got insurance through a referral who is not associated with DriveTime. Austin was knowledgeable and carried a great conversation making our experience even better.
At the end of everything Austin took our picture of us and our new car with a signature green DriveTime bow. If you’re unsure if this is the right dealership for you, stop in and trust me they’ll take great care of you. They even have multiple play areas for the kids, very family oriented if you have little ones.

I purchased a car May 16…purchasing the car was pleasant. However, a week and a half after I had the car I started experiencing issues…the warranty covered by Silverrock allowed me to get the car to a repair facility…long story short, the car was sold to me with no oil. Repair facility put oil in the car and reset sensors. A day after driving it, started having additional issues.
Immediately took it back and was set up with a rental (A WHOLE MISLEADING PROCESS) and it was quickly discovered that the whole engine was bad! Because I only had the car for such a short time, I was referred to DriveTime customer care and was told by the supervisor that the car had passed the vehicle inspection and the engine was not bad off the lot. How did it get bad in a week!!?!?! Makes no sense! I’ve made 2 car payments on a vehicle that is STILL in the shop. I would NEVER EVER recommend DriveTime to anyone. Ever!

The salesman was friendly and knowledge. The experience was quick and easy. No stress, no hassle. The vehicle we reserved was sitting up front. Even though we were early, we were seen anyway. The salesman showed us the carfax and explained them to us. He promised we would be out of there by a certain time and we were. Was pleased with my experience.

5/7 (7 weeks ago) purchased a 2014 Toyota Sienna at the Ft. Myers dealership. Last Friday, 6/21, the assistant manager, Ryan, reported to me that the vehicle can't be registered, so I have to return the vehicle as there is a "stop" that comes up when you run the VIN on FLHSMV. It'd been great if this was something done prior to deeming the car able to be sold. Saturday, 6/22, Ryan was not willing to understand my predicament, nor cared to the fact I purposedly chose the vehicle for the reliability and durability of it, plus, as a return customer, I'd get a small discount on the price tag. Now, the region does not have another vehicle just like it, nor a Toyota that will accommodate my family at the cost I can afford. I called customer relations, and they stated that even if there was another vehicle in another dealership, Drivetime does not ship vehicles to and fro.
On Saturday, Ryan reported that if there are no choices for me to select, we can part ways and undo the contract. Today I called to find out the details of my refund, and he informed me it takes 7-10 business days, and the vehicle will need to be inspected. In addition, I have to be "approved" for a full refund. They did not wait that long to get their money, and the vehicle has had close to $5K in repairs, which speaks volume of how "well" inspected and in "good" running order it was when it was driven off the lot. Never will I ever waste any time in the future with this company.

Honestly I was torn after reading the reviews, but I stepped out on my FAITH! I set my appt and Chase called me too confirm. I went in the next day and met with Chase, he was AMAZING from start to finish. He answered all my questions, even gave me some background information on my Nissan.

I brought a 2018 Hyundai Tucson on May 5, 2024 from Drive Time in New Castle, DE. When I drove it off the lot, I noticed the car would not accelerate to the speed it should have been going. I took the car back the very next day, on May 6th. Advised the sales Rep (Charles **) of the problem, he says “Do you want to purchase another car?” No, I want Drive Time to fix this one before selling it to someone. He advised me that they could not fix the car, to take it to Fire Stone in New Castle, and gave me the number to Silver Rock Warranty.
My car was sitting at Fire Stone for approximately 2 weeks before letting me know that the car needed breaks, rotors, a catalytic converter, and O2 sensor. I was advised that Fire Stone could replace the brakes and rotors, but the car needed to be towed to the nearest Hyundai dealer to have the catalytic converter taken care of. My car has been sitting at Hyundai for 2 1/2 weeks now and I am now being told that Silver Rock is not willing to cover the catalytic converter. A manager from Hyundai dealership stated the converter wasn’t covered under the Hyundai warranty either.
I have yet to drive and enjoy my car but I’ve been making biweekly payments on this car since the beginning of June! I advised Charles ** that I was going to have the car towed back to Drive Time to return it BEFORE the 30 days. He stated that I could not return the car after 5 days. Even though l advised him and his manager that the car has been in the shop with the same consistent problem it’s has since I drove it off the lot. The manager’s exact words were, “It’s past the 5-day return policy, it’s in your contract and you have to keep it.” No remorse, no apology, no solution to fix the proble, they clearly knew was wrong with the car in the beginning. Left me with a car I can’t drive and take my money! Called customer care, she said to keep making the payments or they will report it to my credit! This is what Drive Time is doing to innocent customers!

I started with Joe who turned in paperwork to get started. By time I got there every sales person was busy and I and a few others had to wait. As with any auto sales it’s a process to get to the car and drive then the overload of paperwork must be done. I got an older vehicle in well kept condition that has been a fleet car. Yes it has a recall which these sales don’t address but it very easy to fix at the dealership. I dealt with Tony yesterday and he did his best to get all the paperwork done as soon as possible. Thankfully there was a grocery store close by cause it’s a time consuming process. I came home in my car with groceries for dinner and very happy with my purchase.
I just can’t believe the price of cars nowadays. So y'all go to Drivetime and see Tony and get your deal. They do have some nice vehicles available. Best of luck in your auto hunt but try DriveTime and give them a chance. There is a thorough checklist that is completed with the customer on the car before you pay and sign paperwork which is very good when buying a used vehicle. Thanks Drivetime!!

I bought a car in Mobile, AL at DriveTime. This is the 3rd day I had the car and I realized it had maggots under the seat. After I called them and explained everything they told me it was nothing they could do for me because I was over the 300 mile limit. I live in Andalusia, AL so as soon as I bought the car I passed 300 miles the first day just for me to get home after the purchase. So now they have stuck me with a car that has maggots under the seat and won’t help me or let me trade it in. This was by far the worst place ever to buy a car!!! And to let it be known they knew it had maggots in it because they told us they power washed the trunk…. Who power washes a trunk and what was back there for you to have to wash it that heavy… Just for me to get home and they say they can’t do anything!!

Although I bought a vehicle, I am not satisfied with my experience. I chose a 2016 Ford Explorer but discovered a chip in the windshield. The salesperson explained they would have it looked at and would call me when it was time to pick it up. She never explained that I was on a special 2% discount on my APR. When I was called 4 days later to pick up the vehicle, that incentive was removed and the payment went up by almost $40. It was DriveTime's responsibility to ensure the vehicle was ready to be sold and therefore should have provided the discounted APR instead of trying to pull a fast one.
I purchased a 2016 Taurus for less money with a higher APR but still had a smaller payment. This was only done because I absolutely needed a car. You should honor the original incentive so I was able to purchase the vehicle I wanted. This same thing was done to a friend of mine that purchased a car a few days before. You had his car in the shop for almost month and did not honor the discounted APR that was given. I could understand doing this if either of us were still trying to decide on buying BUT, we both said yes and both vehicles had to go in for repairs. This is bad business and you should find a way to honor what you originally promised.
