I had a very pleasant time with salesperson, dealer was clean, everyone was nice, even the car are nice. I am a mechanic and worked for general motors for 15 years, but people are completely missing what happens here. You cannot haggle the prices and there is a Mark up on the used car prices. I would always suggest to take a look at Kelly blue book a lot of people are not using anymore and allowing yourself and the sales man to get away with making a huge profits. You research but there is also a reason to these people with no or bad credit. This might be your only option for a vehicle so you might have to bite the bullet.
Hello Gabriel,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. I’m very glad to hear that you had a positive experience at the dealership. I am sincerely sorry that you were dissatisfied with the prices of our vehicles. Please rest assured that we here at DriveTime seek to ensure that all customers are happy with their vehicle. As the nation’s largest pre-owned vehicle dealership, we specialize in affordable transportation options for all customers, regardless of credit issues. As our vehicle pricing is subject to several factors, DriveTime does not compete on prices, nor do we hide it. Our haggle-free pricing is part of the DriveTime experience for our customers and it truly emphasizes our transparency with how much our customers will pay for their chosen vehicle. We also invest, on average, over $1,200 in parts and labor in every vehicle we sell to ensure it meets our standards, an amount representing 10% or more of the NADA value of the vehicles. We utilize NADA Retail Suggested Value when evaluating our pricing, which is within the “fair market range” displayed on the “Buy from a Dealer” page on Kelly Blue Book (KBB). We encourage our customers to research all aspects of their purchase prior to sale.
Again I want to thank you for your time and I appreciate this opportunity to address your concerns. Should you have any further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact my department, Customer Relations, at 888-290-0148.

I purchased a vehicle from DriveTime on January 30-2016. The customer service was great. The problems comes in where I've only had my car for three months and I have to fix it already, not even put 3000 miles on the car yet, very upsetting. I called the warranty company. She explain to me that if I used the on-site place where they send our car too I would have to pay 100 deductible or if I decides to use my own I would have to pay 200 out of pocket and for the labor and parts, so I used the warranty company. MY CAR WAS POPPING AND BACK FIRING WHEN I DRIVE. SO I HAD MY CAR TOWED TO PALMETTO AUTO on Tuesday. It took them a whole day to figure out what was wrong with my car. First it was the fuel pump then he call back saying it's still firing back. I said would could it be so the guy said "I would call you back once I figure it out."
A couple of hours later he said it was my spark plugs. So I said "fix it we gotta do what we gotta do to make it happen." On that Friday I picked my car up. On my way home my car started popping and firing back again so I took it back to the shop. His guys put the car back on the machine. Then he says to me "it's your abs system so we just reset it. If it happens again over the weekend just bring it back and he would have to look deeper at the car." I'm so upset because not only he got 400 dollars from me he got 500 from the warranty people as well and my car still not fixed. All I'm asking for is my 400 hundred dollars back. I turn the car back in to DriveTime and one of the guy there said "you are not the only one that has complain about the company."
My question is why would you keep using a company the rip your customers off and not fix the car and cause more problems to the car. That company is a rip off big time. I called DriveTime. One of the representative were very rude, didn't even act concern about why I'm wanting to return my car back and I only had it for three months... Where have the love for people go? The world is evil...
Henrietta,
Thank you for reaching out to us. I’m sorry to hear that your experience with DriveTime has been less than ideal. We strive to provide the highest level of customer service possible, and if issues ever do arise, we work diligently to find the best resolution available.
I apologize for the mechanical concerns you experienced with your vehicle, as I understand how frustrating car repairs can be. I can assure you that before we offer a vehicle for sale, it is subjected to a thorough inspection at one of our DriveTime Inspection Centers. If our certified mechanics find any failed components, these components are replaced. However, as with any pre-owned vehicle, we have no way to foresee if or when future issues may arise. For this reason, every DriveTime vehicle comes with an initial 1,500 mile or 30 day limited warranty, as well as the option to purchase an extended warranty for further peace-of mind.
As the warranties offered are limited in nature, we understand that not every component will be covered. For this reason, my department, Customer Relations, exists to review situations such as these to see what level of assistance can be provided. I understand that you have been in contact with us regarding this matter. Should you have any additional questions or concerns, you may contact Customer Relations at 888-290-0148. Thank you and I hope you have a great day.

I made my way out to the Montclair dealership from North Hollywood to see one particular car on the lot there. I do not think that I have ever had a more simple and no pressure process with a car dealer before.

I did not feel pressured, he was willing to take me on a test drive with any car I liked, I never felt rushed. I drove the one that I came to see and was hooked right there though.

Hello Grace,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review about your experience. I am sincerely sorry to hear of the issue you encountered with your tire after leaving our dealership. Although all of our vehicles undergo rigorous inspection, prior to lease or sale, we are unable to predict if or when a future concern may arise. After the vehicles arrive at our dealerships, they are taken on frequent test drives to ensure proper vehicle operation. Should any issues be discovered prior to sale, we have certain resources and processes in place to ensure they are addressed, prior to a customer leaving the dealership. I see you have recently been in communication with my department, Customer Relations, regarding your concerns. Should you need any further assistance on this matter, please do not hesitate to reach out to us at 888-290-0148.

However when we left in the vehicle we discovered the heat did not work so the next day after buying the car we had to take it to the shop for repairs.

I can honestly say it was the easiest car I ever bought but I now understand why because you're getting screwed over. I asked about the no hassle pricing and was assured that the car was marked at a fair market value. Well after I bought the car and got home I looked up the nada. I found out that I was charged double for the car plus an apr of 21%. I went to DriveTime because my wife wreck her car and this place took advantage of me with a smile on their face.
Well I will be turning this over to the BBB and will write reviews all over the Internet. If I can stop people from buying a car from this place I will do everything within my power to do so. I'm going to write my state officials as well. I got screwed by DriveTime but I will go well out of my way to do anything I can to stop this from happening to anyone else. You will pay triple what the car is worth if you shop at DriveTime. They are not there to help you - they are there to take advantage of you and your bad situations. Please take my advice and stay as far as you can from DriveTime.
Ronald,
Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I am sorry to hear that you are not satisfied with your DriveTime experience. We strive to work with all our customers to find the right vehicle and financing options available.
We understand that many consumers are weary about how a dealership prices their vehicles, which is why we disclose our prices online and post them on every vehicle for sale at our dealerships. Our haggle-free pricing is part of the DriveTime experience for our customers and truly emphasizes our transparency with how much our customers will pay for their chosen vehicle. We also invest, on average, over $1,200 in parts and labor in every vehicle we sell to ensure it meets our standards, an amount representing 10% or more of the NADA value of the vehicles. We utilize NADA Retail Suggested Value when evaluating our pricing, which are within the “fair market range” displayed on the “Buy from a Dealer” page on Kelly Blue Book (KBB).
At the time of sale, we provide our customers with what is called a “Federal Truth in Lending” disclosure. This document outlines the total price of the vehicle, cost of any ancillary products, annual percentage rate, as well as the total amount in finance charges that will be incurred during the life of the loan, if applicable.
Here at DriveTime, we offer a vehicle return program for our finance customers. This program allows for the vehicle to be returned within 5 business days of sale if our customers are not satisfied for any reason.
To better address your concerns, I will be reaching out to you in the next 24-48 business hours. If you are in need of immediate assistance, please feel free to contact our Customer Relations Department at 888-290-0148. Thank you for your time and I hope you have a great day.

I was ok with that until they tell me I cannot get a car unless it had 100,000 miles on it and they only had 3 cars available which was the worst cars. DriveTime tells you they can get you approved, but they want to give you what they want you to have and want you to put a lot of money down to get a car that will break down quick. I was told if I put 8,000 dollars down I can get a car that has 42,000 miles, then they are crazy. I feel I didn't get the best service because they didn't even try to offer me anything else.

Hello Roshawna,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. I’m sincerely sorry that you had a less than 5 star experience with DriveTime. As the nation’s largest pre-owned dealership, we seek to provide transportation options for all customers, regardless of credit issues. The system that we use automatically populates the down payment based on the information and documentation provided by our customers. DriveTime’s approval process is subject to several different factors including but not limited to: income level, proof of residence, and credit score. We aim to work with all of our customers to find the right vehicle and financing options available. Approval and down payment may vary, and are subject to change based on these documents as well as vehicle specifications. We never want to set our customers up for failure. In fact, because we strive to match our customers with financing options which they can successfully maintain, our approval is heavily dependent on income level and several other factors. Although approval, down payment requirements, and annual percentage rates may vary by person, the pricing of our vehicles does not. In addition to our financed vehicles, DriveTime offers lease programs. These lease programs offer additional vehicle and payment options for our customers to choose from. Please keep in mind that our inventory for purchase, and lease, changes on a regular basis, in fact, the selection of vehicles can vary from one day to the next.
Thank you again for your time, and I appreciate this opportunity to address your concerns. Should you have any further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact my department, Customer Relations, at 888-290-0148.

Overall a pleasant experience. Only minor difficulties, those being, incomplete information BEFORE arriving to choose vehicle, or starting purchase paperwork. I am the co-signer for my son. He set up via phone the meeting with a sales member, informing them of his limitations (no drivers license for example). He was NOT told until paperwork was started that a co-signer was required because he had no license. This forced me to provide information I normally do not give out, to allow him to continue. It also forced me to make a return trip home and back to retrieve information needed for insurance. If he had been told all of this UPFRONT, the process would have been faster, if it happened at all.
This is the second vehicle purchased from DT. The first experience was much faster because all information was on hand. The sales rep was very friendly and worked around the issues as best as he could. Normally I do not co-sign for anything, however, since the process had gone as far as it had, I decided to continue rather than stop.

When I was there the staff were very friendly but knowledge of the cars don't seem to be their strong subject. I wanted a car that was good on gas so they gave me a 2010 Jeep Patriot which I loved when I saw it. The test drive was ok but apparently it's not enough to really test the car because 2 weeks later after purchasing the car we had to get it towed because it just didn't start as we were leaving for work which was not good and caused my husband to not be able to go into work. And then the mechanic said there was all types of damage in the front area of the car which caused the starter and battery to be replaced along with other things which we then had to come out of pocket for it to be fixed.
And now we are still dealing with problems with this car. I feel I should not have been sold the car with so many problems in the beginning stage like this, they had mentioned that they just received that car the day before I got it and that they looked at everything, they also said it has only had one owner and never in an accident. I feel as if I was tricked seeing as I know nothing about cars, so no I will never recommend this place to anyone. If anything I would recommend no one ever goes there, I have never had this problem before and I am very disappointed. Not only do I have to make car payments but I also have to fix the car when I first get it, that defeats the whole purpose. With all this money I'm spending I could have just rented a car without all the hassle.
Hello Danielle,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review about your DriveTime experience. I am sincerely sorry to hear about the issues you have encountered after purchasing your Jeep Patriot with us. To ensure safety and reliability, all of our vehicles undergo a multipoint inspection, prior to lease or sale, at our DriveTime inspection centers. During that time, our certified mechanics will thoroughly inspect each vehicle to ensure any failures or mechanical concerns are properly addressed. At the time of sale, we notify our customers of the previous reported history of the vehicle, by supplying them with an Experian Autocheck Vehicle History Report. However, even with inspection and report of vehicle history, we are unable to foresee if or when any future concerns may arise. For this reason, all of our vehicles come with a complimentary 30 day/1,500 mile limited warranty, and extended coverage options are made available at the time of sale.
I understand the frustrations that can come from having these vehicle concerns and I would like the opportunity to take a deeper look into this matter. In order to provide you with the best possible assistance for your given situation, I will be reaching out to you within the next 24-48 business hours. If you are in need of immediate assistance, please feel free to reach out to my department, Customer Relations, at 888-290-0148.
Thank you for your time, I look forward to speaking with you soon.

I was very leery about purchasing a vehicle from DriveTime as the name was new to me and all of the vehicles had high mileage. My salesperson was very good and had very good customer service skills. From the beginning of the sale until I walked out everything went perfect. About a couple of weeks after I purchased the car I noticed that when you close the passenger front door, it sounded like a tin can! Now I am extremely pissed! I had a mechanic look at it and tell me that the door was re-skinned after an accident improperly and they probably didn't put the necessary items back in. Yes the Carfax (can't remember the name of the company that DriveTime uses) shows that the vehicle had never been in an accident. I couldn't hold that against DriveTime as those reports are only as good as the police/insurance companies/ mechanics that properly report it.
I immediately went back to my local DriveTime dealership to report the issue. Within about 4 days I was contacted by DriveTime corporate to take my vehicle to the body shop and that they would cover the repairs 100%. I have since had the repairs done and everything is now good to go. As frustrating as this situation could have been, DriveTime acted quickly and efficiently. And I just want to say thank you!

Before I came here, I was having the most stressful couple weeks trying to find myself a vehicle. I have no built credit and every dealership either denied me, or quoted me an outrageous payment for a crappy car that wouldn't last me a year. DriveTime is a small dealership which I LOVE. The small atmosphere is way less intimidating than huge fancy places and everyone treats you like you are an old friend. I went in hoping to find myself a great deal and that is exactly what I walked out with. With no built credit, I drove home in a 2015 Ford with 20k miles. Great car with an amazing warranty AND cheap payments.
My sales rep was Erika and she was great! Super nice and fun conversation. She worked hard and it was definitely noticed and appreciated. Daryl, the sales manager, is also incredibly friendly and made sure I was well informed the whole way through. Not once did anyone here lie to me or haggle me for more of a down payment. They tell it like it is and will try their very best to get you something that you will love AND be able to afford! They also arranged my payments to be taken out the days that I get paid, which is a huge stress reliever. Definitely 10/10. Have already recommended them to several of my friends who are also looking to buy a new car. Thanks to everyone here. You are great!

I did not like the way DriveTime might or might not have changed my income to get it approved. My income is 1500 a month, they might or might not have increased it to 2000. Wink wink. Not very good business. It is almost like they set you up to fail. Would I recommend them to a friend? NO. Another thing they do is say "You will have 30 days 'til your first payment." That would only happen if the planets align with the center of the Milky Way on the 2nd Tuesday of the month or allow them to auto-withdraw from my account (of course the only person who can do that is not available today). "Would you like to wait?" I have 13 days, give or take a couple of days, from when I made a down payment (set up to fail?) to my first payment.
Truck already has a drive train issue. Will let you know how that goes. Robert and Marly were great. Patel not so much. I think shady (in my opinion) would be a good word. I would recommend a buy-here-pay-here car lot. Less chance of being sued. I signed the contract and will meet my obligation but I would advise a different dealer for your next vehicle purchase, I will. Good day to all. God bless.
The above is the opinion of a customer. Got to love the way DriveTime puts on this review site "Remember you are responsible for what you write in your review" - kinda like "watch what you say about us, we will get you... just saying." This whole review was just an opinion. If your opinion is this post is true, do not buy from DriveTime. If your opinion is this post is not true, good luck. In America we all have the right to an opinion.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review about your experience with DriveTime. I am sorry to hear that your experience is negative and that you would not recommend anyone to us. We strive to provide the highest level of customer service possible and work with all our customers to find the right vehicle and financing options available. Please be assured that I will be reaching out to the dealership to gather more information on the concerns you have outlined.
I understand that you are experiencing some mechanical concerns with your vehicle, and I am sorry to hear of this. Please be assured that every vehicle we sell is thoroughly inspected, and any components that fail our inspection are replaced.

We also offer our customers the options to purchase an extended warranty for further peace-of-mind.
Regarding the statement you mentioned about being responsible for what is left in the review, this is intended to advise reviewers that any information they include in the body of the review is open and visible to the public.

Hi Gabrielle,
Thank you for your review, I am happy to hear you were able to find a vehicle that works best for you. I truly apologize for any frustrations this situation has caused. I can understand how upsetting having vehicle repairs early into owning your vehicle can be.
I can assure you all DriveTime vehicles undergo a full safety and mechanical inspection prior to us making the vehicles available for sale. We not only want to offer our customers a wide variety of vehicles, but we also want to ensure the safety and reliability of the vehicles. Even so, we are never able to predict if a future failure may arise.
I also would like to apologize for any confusion regarding the price of the vehicle. We strive to make sure our customers are comfortable with the payments they will be responsible for. We strongly encourage all of our customers to review their contract before leaving the dealership. At the time of signing, our underwriter will provide our customer with all of the necessary details regarding their payment amounts, interest rates and the total amount that the customer will be paying for the vehicle. In a simple interest loan, interest is charged per day on the financed balance remaining. As a result, more money will be paid to interest toward the beginning of a loan.
I would like to further address your concerns. I will be contacting you within the next 24-48 business hours to see how I can turn this situation around. Should you prefer immediate assistance, please contact our Customer Relations Department at (888) 290-0148 and a member of the team will be more than happy to assist.

I wanted to sit on it for a day or two but every time I hinted at something he came back with a reason not to do it, if that makes sense (C). I was there with my toddler who got hungry. Todd was nice enough to buy some chips for him (A+). The bathrooms do not have changing tables and that really STUNK. I had to change my baby on my lap while I sat on the toilet (F). I wanted 3rd row seating and I got it. My new van is so much better AND safer than the hoopty I was in previously. I LOVE my new ride. THANKS AGAIN!!

DriveTime was very helpful and patient when helping me. I had very bad credit and they helped to get my vehicle I wanted - 2010 Ram 1500.

I came in to DriveTime in Pensacola on Friday. Meet with Kevin **, which was a very nice salesman. Told him what I wanted and he made it happen. I told him I wanted to wait a week to make my decision. Came in today with my decision and meet with Dauris **. He also meet my expectations and made the process very easy. I got the car I wanted with the miles and payment. Thank you for all your help in getting me the 2014 Chevrolet Impala!

My husband and I are very happy with our experience at DriveTime in Round Rock. Being a previous customer, DriveTime showed us their appreciation for coming back and helped us get into a vehicle we both loved and now enjoying. We would definitely recommend others to DriveTime.
