As I said before nobody is understanding my situation, there is NOTHING I can do with this matterMy hands are tied and it is up to the parties involved to communicate and work this outI have spoke to the highest people of all parties and they have all told me there is nothing that I myself can doTHEY have to work this outI cannot pick up the check and I cannot make the bank send it to drive time.....they refuse They said they CAN and WILL hold the check for up to years until Drive time cooperatesThe issuance company cannot stop payment or send another check because they said it has been cashedSo having said all that again please tell me if you are going to do something or do I need to contact a lawyer? I already have one that will take this case I'm just trying to give everyone a chance I have very little patience left in this matter as I have already spent several hundred dollars just to fix what needed to be done to drive itI'm a very unhappy customer and will never recommend this dealership to anyone. Also this car was purchased July 3, not February 3rd
