I purchased a car from Drive 1 of columbus. It was my first car purchase. I told the salesman I have to keep my payment between $200.00 and $250.00 max. My wife and I found a car we were interensted in. The salesman told us this will be right up our ally and could get us a really good interest rate. The contracts were drawn out and we were continuously side tracked by the fast talk as I was signing the contracts. My wife and I got home and I quickly looked over my contract and noticed my payments were $348.00 and my interest was 19%. I called the company back and there reply was you signed now thats your problem.
A few months later I found a buyer for my car. I was not sure what to do on how to trade my lease. I called Drive 1 back and asked the sales Manager on how to get the lease in her name. The sales Manager told me that they could easely trade the lease into her name, and to just bring her down. I had a sure buyer when I took her down there. She gave her information to the sales Manager. Dive 1 said it would take a couple of days and that they would contact me when they needed me. I waited a week then I finally called back to drive one. They told me that they were waiting for her to renew her licence and then we would be done. I waited another week, and I called back and talked to the sales manager again. He then told me real nervously that they could not get her into my car because of the interest rate, but she had bought a SUV for about $7,000 more dollers.
About 8 months later I was talking to the person that I was going to sell my car to, and she had told me that regretebly she could have purchased my car, but Drive 1 steered her away from buying my car and downplaying my car and showed her there cars. All along they never planned on switching my lease into her name. They are crooks and will do anything to sell a car no matter what.
