Victor G. in Torrance was amazing to work with! Easy, simple and to the point. When I didnt see what I wanted at first, he kept in contact with me and made sure we found something I would be happy with. First dealership that I never felt any pressure in any way which made the experience very relaxed. Once Victor helped me secure my car, Anthony A. in Downey helped me get all of my paperwork signed and had me driving off the lot with my gently used 2019 car, with low miles that I love! I would go back again without a doubt! Great guys!

The worst experience ever! EFRAIN was not customer service friendly he just wanted to sell a car. And made me pay for insurance when the car wasnt even signed under my name yet. I kept going in and out of the door with my stroller holding my 2 babies and not once did he try to keep the door open for me just walked in before me and waited for me at his desk. Very bad experience think twice before coming here.

Anthony was our car representative and he was exceptional! He was patient, knowledgeable, and speedy! Our experience at DriveTime was so seamless. I love how the process is mostly all electronic and very tech savvy. I drove off the lot with the perfect car for my family in just 1.5 hrs, wow!

Review №12

Yesterday I purchased a car for my child and Andy was our Sale person. This was one of the coldest unwelcoming car buying experiences I have ever had.I will start with Andy never introducing himself, if it wasnt for his name take we wouldve never known his name. I know that COVID is very much real and hand shaking is not an option but a smile and proper greeting can go a long way. Due to social distancing we were not allowed to sit properly at the desk. With that being said Andy sat with his back towards us while he inputted all the requested information into the computer never asked how we were or how our day was going. The only time he turned around was to ask us to walk up to the desk and sign where he indicated.After this, we moved to the type of car and monthly payment. Andy informed us that Drive Times monthly payments were usually around $400 per month . I informed him what we were looking to pay which was less then what he said. I became very offended when he sarcastically chuckled and asked what car I drive and what I paid per month as well as telling me he pays $500 per month for his car. I told him what I pay is not his concern and that we were here for my child and what they can afford. At this point I was very much annoyed ready to leave to lot. Once I began to push back by asking more questions, he then began to explain more options we had. My child test drove a car which was later purchased.We then began the paperwork portion of the process. Again we were back at the desk with no sign of a smile, thank you or congratulations from our sales man Andy. He began the process all while failing to confirm that we would like to purchase GAP, extended warranty or the anti-theft package, so its a good thing I wanted at least 2 or of the 3 options even though all 3 were added to the cost. He never took the time to go over each piece of what was being purchased only sign here, sign here. We never met a manger or a anyone that worked in the finance area.Once everything was signed he sated that the car would be washed down and we would be ready to go. Car was still wet when we left and the gas tank was left on half a tank. I guess this is new, usually the car or WASHED and the gas tank is at least offered to be filled up.All in all I will say this was not the best car buying experience I have ever had. Staff needs to further educated on customer service and being much more pleasant to the costumers whom are coming to spend their hard earned money because being pleasant and good costumer service goes a long way. My only positive is we left with a car... thats it.

What can I say about Drive Time of Downey. They are on a whole other level of customer service, I wish other dealers were like Drive Time when it comes to customer service. The first time I went Jenna and Manuel helped me out and unfortunately there was a problem with my pay stubs, and they tried everything to resolve the issue so I can drive off with my vehicle that same night. They stood till 10pm and unfortunately it wasnt resolved but not once did they make me feel uncomfortable about keeping them there an hour after they closed. I came in the next day, Jennifer and Alex helped me out. Jennifer was so altruistic, patient, and helped me through the whole process. Jennifer is the definition of excellent customer service. I would highly recommend Jennifer and Drive Time of Downey for your next car purchase.

My salesman Jay was thee absolute best. He was patient, knowledgeable, and just overall professional. I have been in Drive Time four times and this was by far the best experience. He made sure I got exactly what I was looking for, explained everything very thoroughly and I feel very good about my purchase. Drive Time should be very happy to have someone like Jay with his superior customer service skills.His professionalism was the deciding factor in my purchase.

Review №52

Never thought that Drive Time would be so shady to hide information on a Carfax report on a vehicle that I purchased for my daughter as her first car ever. Got the vehicle in May 2021 and then it became a Total loss a month after due to hidden information of uncorrected repairs by the previous mechanic which was the reason my daughter ended up getting into an accident. Drivetime didnt even offer my daughter a rental or anything for that matter. They were rude and really didnt care. They just wanted to get rid of the vehicle and nothing else mattered. So please everyone be careful.

My experience started off sort of bad at the Torrance office with one employee but Robert’s hard work and persistence, wanting me to be a satisfied customer went above and beyond to make sure I got the car I wanted!Because my car was at the Downey store and they were closing, I had to wait until the next day to pick up my vehicle which I didn’t mind! Robert made sure he reserved y car for me!We went over to Downey the next day and again they did what it took to make sure I walked away happy!!!Thanks Andrew for all of your help a s thanks to the whole evening Downey team for working together to get me right!Thanks Robert in Torrance for taking care of me and my sister!!!! I am forever grateful!!

Review №73

Absolutely the worst place in the world to buy a car. Most cars come from salvage and our reconditioned in a very bad way.in addition to that the loan company they have charges outrageous interest rates youll never pay off the car and the car will probably die while you still all the money on the loan. Do yourself a favor and go anywhere else because anywhere else would be a much better deal for you. Avoid this place like the plague.

Ridiculously high interest rates. Overpriced cars.

I went in to store before noon and it was easy to get some help. It was a good experience. I was able to get a car which i desperately needed with no down payment (option to make a down payment within 60 days).Salesperson Jonathan was nice, easy going and took time to explain the product and answer my questions. He understood what i wanted and did his very best to deliver. It was a PAINLESS experience.I would shop DriveTime again. I would recommend DriveTime no matter your situation. Be sure to go in knowing what you want, what the price should be and any extras you are looking for.
