Tried to purchase a used car from them. My husband and I both have good credit. We were going to trade in our 2016 for a 2013. Sat there for 3 hours and had my credit ran only for them to try an get us to buy a new vehicle and make a large down payment at the end. Wasted our time. Never again.In response to Drive Times response.I doubt youre really all that torn up about what happened to my husband and I. I will never recommend Drive Time nor will I waste anymore of my time on this company. We already found what we wanted elsewhere and are very happy with how we were treated. Your loss.

Michael Warren at the Pelham location was AWESOME! He really helped my friend get a car today. He did everything he knew to do to work with us on getting a car she loved. We recommend Michael for anyone who is searching for a new vehicle. With traveling back and forth to work and church, she needed somerhing dependable and he made sure she got that. I give them a 5

Warranty they give you for 30 days is a nightmare to navigate! I hope that if I NEED to use the warranty that I paid for it is much better. I don’t have high hopes!

Also thank you to Ashley for finding me the vehicle I wanted even though it wasn’t at your location.

I went in at opening today and was immediately greeted by Dakota Weeks. He opened the door for me and immediately got the car I was interested in. Throughout the entire time I was there, he made me feel comfortable, made jokes, and ensured that I was okay with everything. Rico also helped and reassured me that I was making a good choice. He even let me use his phone charger when my phone died. Out of the three cars I’ve bought, this was the best car-buying experience I’ve ever had.Thank you Dakota and Rico for a wonderful and comfortable experience.

Where do I begin. With my initial conversation with Dakota over the phone he seemed warm and sincere after meeting him his demeanor continued to be the same. He went well beyond the call of duty to accommodate my family and I. He continued to stay in touch with us and volunteered his assistance to the fullest. Several weeks later, I conducted Dakota again and he promised to call me back as soon as he rapped up his conversation with a potential client. He did just as he promised. By then my whole vehicle choice had shifted but Dakota found several option which were to my liking. On Saturday 2.23.20 we visited Dakota and the car which I chose over the phone which was in Parway. Drive time (which they went and retrieved in advance) was not what I 100% approval. Once again Dakota worked feverishly and found us another vehicle which we all were delighted with. Our last visit will be Saturday when we pick up the vehicle. Mr Dakota Week was patient. honest and detailed. He answered all our questions and most of our concerns. Not to mention the Pelham facility plays the best music and is so clean you can see your reflection on the floor. It has been a extreme pleasure to work with this young man.

This was the best car buying experience! We were able to find the car we wanted and have it transferred to our local location in Pelham. Kate helped us every step of the way. She even went the extra mile and stayed late waiting for the car to arrive, take us on a drive and complete the paperwork. Rico, you and your team are the best. Highly recommend them!!

It was a great buying experience. Yes, the APR is high and yes we have to pay a high payment every month, but it is getting reported to my husbands credit score.

I bought my first car a few weeks ago from DriveTime. Fattah Thompson and all of the staff were so helpful and patient with me during the whole process. I had no idea what to expect and what I needed when buying a car and I was initially a little overwhelmed by it all. But they helped me with everything and took a lot of time to make sure my car buying experience was simple and pleasant. I got a great car for a great price and they even took the time to help make sure I had insurance coverage on it as well. I would recommend DriveTime to anyone.

This place was great. I mean buying a car is pretty lengthy but Dakotah made it super fun and easy. He asked us questions like what we were looking for and what we were looking to spend and went from there. He did a great job letting us lead the experience and just guided us through the whole process. I feel like we not only got a great deal but the personal feeling of the interaction was great. I never felt like I was in a sales negotiation. Great afternoon buying a car thanks Dakotah for the experience.

Just finished up getting a new to me car from DriveTime. We have used DriveTime before so we were able to take part in their upgrade program. Service was awesome here! The team that works here is awesome. We were greeted by Rico the general manager who was very friendly then he introduced us to Kate who was beyond helpful and super great to work with. She waited as we went back and forth on different car options. She went above and beyond to make sure we were in the car we wanted. I didn’t feel pressured and She doesn’t give you that super pushy sales person feeling. When you come here ask for Kate Goodwin. You won’t regret it.

Katelyn Goodwin was AMAZING! We went in Saturday evening, and couldn’t leave with the vehicle because they couldn’t find the title. Katelyn got in contact with me Monday morning about 15 minutes before I was going to call and check the status of everything. The title was in one of the GA locations, and was sent overnight. However come Tuesday morning, the title was not at the Pelham location, Katelyn stayed on top of things and was informed that it was sent to another location in Birmingham, Katelyn personally went over and picked the title up so we could finally leave with the vehicle. There were some changes that were made on the paperwork and somehow the papers I signed Saturday night they couldn’t find. The payment went from $301 to $304, yes I know it’s only $3 but the person Katelyn had to pass the paperwork over to seemed to have a problem with it at first and made the comment “it’s only $3”. Katelyn told him she seen the paper that showed the $301 and wasn’t sure why it went up since Saturday. I told them I want it back down because it’s not my fault that THEY couldn’t find the title, otherwise we would have left with the vehicle Saturday night. They did get it fixed. Katelyn had the BEST customer service and AMAZING attitude and actually cares about her customers. If you go to DriveTime, DEFINITELY GO TALK TO KATELYN GOODWIN!!!!!!!

It was so hard getting a car and I went to drive time, this has been a wonderful experience. I had so much help from Eli and Gavin!! The staff is very friendly and very helpful, they did everything in their powerful to get me in 4 wheels, even with the car I wanted!!! Eli and Gavin explained everything accordingly. I’m very appreciative to have come to this car lot, it’s been a great experience and I would recommend anyone who is looking for a car to come here!! Thanks a lot.

Brandon was awesome! He, figuratively, held my hand throughout the entire process. He was not pushy and catered to my purchasing needs. My only advice would be to NOT use the app to determine down payment. It could drastically change when you visit due to factors that the app does not include and it is dependant upon the type of vehicle youre looking for. I suggest utilizing a salesperson from start to finish.

Review №84

I went into DriveTime a couple of weekends ago after scouring the internet for a reasonably priced used vehicle. I found one on their website that I liked and was within the price range I was looking for. I got all the paperwork, paycheck stubs, insurance information, and a utility bill in my name and went to go look at this vehicle. I approached the door and someone who did not even introduce themselves walked me to their desk. The first question he asked was, “Can I see your pay stubs?” At this point I was completely turned off but figured I would sit there and entertain this unprofessional sales man. He then asked me what my situation was. The proper question should have been,”What brings you in today?” I told him I was looking for a car with a low monthly payment preferably around $300. He then tells me that no car on the lot has that low of a payment. I asked,”What if a larger down payment was applied?” and he just said,” It would have to be a very large down payment” with that response I took my paperwork and the $8,000 I was going to put down on a $14,000 vehicle and left. My advice is to train your sales people to be professional and not have the mentality that everyone has a “situation”. I was ready to buy and could have bought the vehicle outright if the down payment of $8000 didn’t get me the monthly payments I was looking for. I didn’t even get the chance to test drive the vehicle or any vehicle. It would have been an easy sale and easy commission for this gentleman who clearly has no sales experience.

Review №87

We went in two weeks ago and found a car that was at another location. F Thompson and team had it transferred to Pelham location. That’s all good and great. We called them yesterday before driving an hour away to make sure they could take a personal check, was told yes. We got up their and spent 3 hours sitting in the office. Went back and forth with things that they needed only to get a last response to say we can’t take a personal check. Okay, that was my last nerve. Farrah Thompson was very rude, untucked his shirt and said to his coworker, refund her check so we can go home! I will never use DriveTime. Very disappointed, they could have been a little nicer! I give them a - at that location!

Carlo exhibits everything that a leader should be. I observed even him picking up a paperclip and place it in the trash. The details truly matter and he shows that. Anthony and Eli were professional, courteous and knowledgeable. The show room was clean and with all lights on in and well lit. The operation presented well from the parking lot to the bathrooms. Excellent buying experience. Superb customer service.

AMAZING EXPERIENCE!!! I was very hesitant to go car shopping by myself. I went to a couple of lots and never talked to anyone. I finally decided I would stop by this drivetime since my nephew said I should. Im so proud I did! Every person I had to deal with was so professional and nice and I felt at ease right away. I purchased a car that I have fallen in love with. My personal mechanic checked it out and said it would be a great car. The home office and the store manager have called to see if I had any questions and to see if I was enjoying my new car. I have even stopped back in a couple of times and always have a blast with the employees. I would give this place a thousand stars if I could. I will always recommend DriveTime Pelham to anyone shopping for a great car. Thank you all for my amazing experience.
