I can't work with the 2-week payment plan, and are not even spoke to about it. Now payments will be late. Soon as I can I'm going elsewhere, and just give them back their car.
Hello Louis,
Thank you for your review, I am sorry for the frustrations your payment schedule have caused. Here at DriveTime we want to make sure our customers are comfortable with the payments they will be responsible for. During contracting the underwriters strive to ensure they provide our customers with all details pertaining to their loan by explaining the total amount for the vehicle, interest rates, payment amounts and due dates. In most cases, due dates are structured around customers pay schedules. For example, if a customer receives their pay check on a bi-weekly basis their car payment will be due bi-weekly. I apologize once again for the frustrations this matter has caused. If you have any additional questions or concerns you are welcome to reach out to Bridgecrest Customer Service as they are now our Loan Serving Company at (800)967-8526 and a member of the team will be more than happy to assist.
Thank you and I hope you have a wonderful day.Philisha-Customer Relation’s.

Great commercial. Very misleading... My son called twice to make sure they were actually going to be able to help him. He drove an hour to Plano for some sales lady to treat him like trash. She told him straight up that she wasn't going to help him, if he didn't have $6000.00 down. He had a car to trade in, they said that they wanted cash. WHAT A JOKE!!! When it sounds too good...
Pamela,
Thank you for bringing this matter to my attention. I am very sorry to hear of your son’s experience at the dealership. Here at DriveTime, we strive to ensure that each and every customer has a positive car buying experience and is treated with the utmost respect. Please be assured that we will be addressing this matter with our dealership management team for continued improvement on our level of service.
DriveTime’s approval process is subject to a number of factors, including but not limited to: income level, credit score, and vehicle specifications. Down payment requirements are also subject to these factors, and final approval is contingent on verification of the aforementioned criteria. Regarding your concern with trade-ins, we are able to take trade-ins. However, there are certain requirements that must be met before a trade-in can be accepted.
If your son has any further questions or concerns, I encourage him to contact our Customer Relations Department at 888-290-0148. Thank you for your time and I hope you have a great day.

My mother and I went into DriveTime just looking to see if I could even get approved for a car, and we were immediately greeted by Steve who helped us the whole time. He was so helpful with us, the poor guy even skipped his lunch to make sure I was leaving with a car of my choice. I was so nervous to make this huge commitment, but Steve made this whole process a pleasurable experience. I recommend anybody who is a first-time car buyer or even anybody who's tired of the pushy salesmen.

Customer service was very professional and friendly; however, the start to finish process of purchasing our vehicle was too lengthy. We are from out of town and it took two days to complete the purchasing of our car.
I thank you for taking the time out to leave a review. I am very happy to hear you had an enjoyable car buying experience and the dealership staff was able to assist you in locating a vehicle that best fit your needs. I sincerely apologize that that the process took longer than expected. I understand how frustrating it can be to make time to visit one of our Dealership locations and have to endure such a delay. During contracting our Sales Advisors strive to ensure they are providing detailed and accurate information as it relates to our customers purchase, this can sometime extend the amount of time needed at the dealerships. We will be sure to forward this feedback to the dealership in hopes to prevent situations such as this one from taking place again in the future.
Thank you for your time and I hope you have a wonderful day.

Hello Leroy,
Thank you for reaching out to leave a review about your concerns. I sincerely apologize for the transmission issues you have encountered so soon after getting your vehicle. All DriveTime vehicles undergo a multipoint inspection, prior to lease or sale, at our DriveTime inspection centers. At that time, any parts that fail inspection are replaced. However, with pre-owned vehicles, we are unable to determine if any future issues may present themselves at a later time. Please keep in mind, if you purchased the vehicle, we do offer a five day vehicle return program for our finance customers. If you are unhappy with your vehicle for any reason, this program allows you to return the vehicle to the dealership within five days from the date of purchase, to cancel your contract.
To ensure you are provided with the best possible assistance for you concerns, I will be contacting you within 24 - 48 business hours.
Thank you for your time, I look forward to speaking with you.

The two salespeople I worked with were great, made buying a car very easy. Lori and Detroy were the best. Found the car I wanted and needed and I'm loving it already. Thanks for that.

When I was referred to DriveTime I walked in thinking I would receive the same answers I have before.. NO! Renata was my initial sales person. She was relatable, and extremely pleasant. Justin broke down everything in words I could understand. Lol.. And in the end Emeka finished up the sale. It only took literally 20 minutes to get approved. My down payment was unbelievable, considering I purchased a 2013 Hyundai with very low miles.. I'm just happy and I can continue to get to my patients. I LOVE LOVE LOVE DRIVETIME! YOU GUYS ROCK!!

This is my third car with DriveTime. Why is it my third? Every car I have from them was terrible so I traded them in within the 5 days. Now not to mention I am 6 months pregnant so I really need to get around. When I first got the 3rd car Ivan the store manager promised me all kinds of things that would be fixed through warranty.
I called warranty because every time I came outside to go to work my tires were flat. Yes FLAT!! So the warranty says "okay". They will approve it even though it's something they usually don't. Okay good. So I call the warranty and they say they are waiting for DriveTime a customer relations to approve my tires. I call customer relations which is horrible!!! And they say "nope we aren't fixing anything." Literally that's what the man says. Now my tires are only okay if I put fix a flat in them which is not a good thing. Remember I'm pregnant right? So my tires could just fall off at any time.
I don't think it's fair and I don't think I should have to replace the tires. I've been TOLD they would be approved because I've had so many issues. Smh. I have called the Better Business Bureau and a lawyer to handle it because it's been that bad. I would never recommend going here ever to anyone. I'm going to let everyone I know not to go there.

When I was first looking into a car, Jamarcus was assigned to me first. He helped me pick out the perfect car, at a perfect budget, perfect everything actually. I took my boyfriend with me the day we went to see the inventory and it was full of laughs and smiles but getting down to business as well. By the end of my visit, I had a 2013 Chevy Cruze picked out. We told Jamarcus we would be returning in 2 weeks, but sadly he was transferred to the Camelback location. So if you need help, and comfort about a car you will be selecting, I highly suggest you ask for Jamarcus. Exceptional service.
As for Cody, he was assigned to help me when Jamarcus left. Exceptional service as well. It was getting in and out and everything was understandable. Few jokes, laughs, and smiles here and there. He made sure that I had a good idea of what I was getting into, and broke down the information again. Overall, my visit here was AMAZING. The staff is wonderful and friendly. I honestly will recommend this place to anyone looking for a car.

I had a wonderful experience with DriveTime! I have to give a huge shout out to Matt for going above and beyond for us. He took the time to drive to the Lombard, IL location to pick up the vehicle that I wanted! Super guy!!! Exceptional customer service!!! And then James - another great employee. He assisted us when we came in to pick up the vehicle. He went over all of the paperwork, recall information, history and went through all working components one by one on the vehicle. And last, but certainly not least, there was Shelly. Her bright smile and professional demeanor made the buying experience even more enjoyable. She explained all of the financing in detail and made sure there was nothing that we did not understand PRIOR to signing any paperwork. She did an awesome job as well!! Just want to thank Matt, James and Shelly for all they did for us and for making us feel valued as your customer!!! Great job. :)
