DriveTime Reviews (3011)

To whom it may concern;Per your letter, you stated that your company made attempts to contact me between the initial conversation on Jan and Feb 1stThat is a blatant lie that can easily be proven by pulling the call from Feb 1st that I INITIATED and during which I was advised by the
representative, after I complained that your company had not followed up, that it was not your companies responsibility to follow upThat it was MY responsibility to followup to check statusThis was stated verbatim by your representativeI have also notified the Revdex.com of your outward lie in this matter. Plus, this issue has nothing to do with the mechanical warranty associated with this vehicleThis is a sales issue and legality issueThis has absolutely nothing to do with Aeverex and I am completely unsure why my warranty has anything to do with providing a resolutionYour company made a severe mistake prior to the sale of this vehicle to meThat is the issue that you continue to completely disregard.ThanK you

On October 23, 2015, our customer entered into a Closed End Motor Vehicle Lease Contract with DriveTime, when she leased a Toyota CamryWhile DriveTime originated the Lease and is the Lessor, as of April 5, 2016, Bridgecrest Credit Company became the servicer for the LeaseThe vehicle came

Although some of the statements are accurate, what they leave out is of great concern. I did receive a *** letter asking me to call them. I have not received any phone calls from them. I called DriveTime and they offered to put me in a new vehicle, and would NOT transfer any payments made on the truck I have driven about half the time I have owned it. I have paid $in payments they will not transfer to another vehicle. When holding on the phone with DriveTime Corporate office, their recording states that all vehicles are "rigorously" inspected. Also their written paperwork and commercials state their vehicles are "thoroughly" inspected. Those two words imply that they inspect all vehicles and make needed repairs before they sell the vehicles, and they state online, that they REJECT far more vehicles than they approved for sell on their lots. I find those statements misleading. I cannot lose the $I have paid on payments on a truck that has been in the shop more than it's been in my possession. Their deal was for a strict hours only. They would not give me any price guidelines as to which vehicles I could get without my down payment going up. I work days a week and would be glad to take my day off and get another truck, but I want a truck, not a car. In all of Tennessee they only have trucks, and three of them are older than my 2007. The other one is a which I am sure is more money down. When I commit to trade my vehicle in, I have hours to find a vehicle. If I find a truck at another lot, I can drive to that lot, or pay for it to be delivered to Antioch. It all involves me losing more money, or paying more money. I have lost enough already.I want a truck. I want all my monies to be transferred to my new contracted vehicle. I think after all I have gone through, and the run around I have gotten from the beginning, that is the least they should do.Thank you, Richard Smith
