Complaint / Review
Drive Time
Scam Company

We found Florida from Maryland. Had just been below a few weeks. Was concerned about being cheated, but sensed I had been simply over-reacting because of being from the more rural region. There everyone knowns everyone if youare not trustworthy, you do not endure. Drivetime was was suggested by another dealership. Salesman helpful, won our confidence. I discussed that people simply arrived off a bankruptcy and did not would like to get in over our brains so we required an automobile having a cost under $200. He explained "not a problem. Something about the ton under $400." There have been lots of good vehicles, but this car was for work reasons for my spouse and we needed an older car without any extras-turn, no sail, etc. We discovered one, however the saleman held seeking us to obtain a newer, better, fully packed vehicle. I kept saying "we can not afford it. I want anything having a cost under $200.00 monthly. We discovered a 2002 hyundai, turn windows, no sail, etc. I questioned why the cost was therefore large, about 12000.00 on the vehicle that nada outlined for approximately $5000-6000, and also the salesman stated "Oh that isn't truly everything you spend. It'll all be explained." okay we stated.in the end they're the experts. I actually donot understand anything about eveything. They've to become regulations that protect the customer. Drivetime finished the offer around at night when several everyone was about plus they were about prepared to shut-8:55pm. They invested about five minutes reviewing paperwork and we were from there. On the road house, anything bothered me. Although researching the paperwork, the person rapidly stated the cost was $196.38 bi weekly. There is lots of paperwork to-go through plus they were attempting to rush so that they might shut, and so I lined it-up to simply an error in text. I believed he simply misspoke and what he truly meant was regular. I believed this due to him rushing through issues as well as since I'm more than 50 yrs old and also have purchased additional vehicles and also have never purchased an automobile where you create a bi weekly cost. And so I realized he misspoke or I missheard. Athome I looked over the paperwork more carefully. IT HAD BEEN $196.38 bi weekly. I turned, but what may I do. I closed a document saying I'd purchase it and that I exchanged in my own truck, my only additional way of transport. I thought I had been caught. I tried creating the funds. I had been late a few period and within one day to be overdue I'd get a phone threatening foreclosure. Then after a few months of purchasing the vehicle it woudnot begin. We visited the dealer. First they stated they'd change the battery. They stated no since perhaps we quit the lamps on and triggered the battery to die. If which were the situation, the battery might be energized. They stated purchase a battery plus they might purchase it. They stated no they'dnot. This battery was completely lifeless. We'd it examined at an autozone where we ultimately needed to get purchase a fresh battery. Next the rear defroster quit functioning. Drive-time would not purchase that since the guarantee did not address changing windows. Then your vehicle would not consider gasoline right. Although moving, you had obtain a few pennies of gasoline in after which the push might turn off such as the vehicle was complete. It took forever to load the gasoline container. Every time we returned to Drive-Time and got exactly the same reaction. Oh once more they informed us to obtain the gasoline issue set plus they might spend, we stated forget it. We didnot possess the cash and we didnot trust them to pay for us back. During this period my spouseis hours at the office turned less and less.in the place of chance lost funds, we chose to simply provide the vehicle back and contact it actually. The vehicle was security from the loan and because we're able to no further manage to create funds about the mortgage, we desired to conserve our credit giving the security back. We got the car back, described that despite the fact that we were very specific by what we could manage, significantly less than $200 monthly cost, what we were left with was a car which was charging $400 monthly plus some weeks near to $600 monthly and just how we simply could not proceed to create funds about the vehicle. We also examined the amount of items wrong using the vehicle and just how we'd not obtained any aid from Drive-Time with these issues. Today in the end our initiatives to maintain our credit in check, we're experiencing poor credit because of Drive-Time having documented us towards the credit agency for non payment about the mortgage despite the fact that we offered back the vehicle back within 5 weeks of purchase. I actually donot know how they are able to have their security back AND statement people for poor credit. Count us in on any legitimate action against Drive-Time. And certainly will anybody tell me ways to get this off my credit.
