By far the best car purchasing experience Ive ever been through. Over the phone, Garret was awesome communicating with me throughout the day while I was busy at work. Thank you for your patience. Armondo on day of purchase. So quick and professional. Less than an HR in and out! Keep it up Drive Time!

Amazing experience, everything went smoothly and quick. Jake was awesome. Highly recommended for your next vehicle, especially if you have less than perfect credit history.

Very high APRs overall would not recommend for someone that has ok to decent credit, if you have bad credit this might be your only choice if you want a car out the dealer honestly. The car i wanted was retailed at $17,000 (before taxes,fees and warranty). I was willing to put down $6,000 and my APR was still at 14%. That is very high considering im paying 1/3 of the retail price. However before that, they pulled up a qoute with $2,600 down with the APR sitting at 22%!! My advice to you guys is to try getting an auto loan through your bank at a much lower APR. They do not work with other bank loans so just find another dealer that does. If you have been banking with your bank for a couple of years and are getting direct deposit you may have a chance! 👌🏼👌🏼

Ive owned at least 20-25 cars in my lifetime and this by far has been the best car buying experience Ive ever had. The website was user friendly, the response time for questions was quick and the customer service was great! An acquaintance was supposed to help me purchase a car over 3 months ago. I was able to do a little research, make an appt online and purchase my car within 1 hour and 49 minutes. Unbelievable! And as long as my car does me right, DriveTime will receive referrals from me. Thank you so much!

I bought a car not even a month ago and its already been in the shop for the alignment. I was tricked into signing for a warranty. Even after I said no that my bank already offers that. I told them I want to cancel the contract and its been a week with nothing but a run around. They assured everything was easy. But I have had nothing but problems. Now that they are taking so long to cancel the contract they tricked me into signing for. So now they are saying I have to pay for some of the warranty I never wanted in the first place. The sell reps are scammers and so is silverrock. They work together to scam you. I sign for a 12,000 dollar car that was 2,000 over the blue book. Then added almost 4,000 dollars on top of that over warranty. Getting me denied my refinancing from my bank unless I pay the 4,000 out of pocket. Please do not by from this company. Its been a nightmare and I just want to cry. But being a man makes it hard and so its emotionally affecting me too. I have called so many places for help. Next is a lawyer

Honestly one of the best car buying experiences Ive ever had. The salesman Jake was great and easy to work with. Almost the entire deal was done over the phone. Cecelia was as professional as could be. Easy clear financing terms. All in all it was a great car buying experience. And I hate buying cars.

We went into DriveTime about a week ago and was helped by an associate named Jake. He then went on to speak to us as if he did not want to help us. After he attempted to sell us a Lexus with a $10,000 down payment. We came in again today in hopes that we could try to get another associate. We got Jake again. After he recognized us he tried to sell us the same Lexus again but said that the down payment was $2,500. At that time I requested another associate and to speak to his manager. The manager came to help but was very dismissive to our issue. I do not recommend spending your money with DriveTime based on the customer service they provide.

Review №22

Honestly I almost believed the bad reviews, when I tell y’all my credit is poor it’s below the poverty line right now so I was hesitant with the fact I’d be stuck with a bad deal but I appreciate this dealership with working with me and getting me into a good car for not that much down and a reasonable monthly payment. Definitely would recommend Armando for looking out at this location, he truly seems like a trustworthy guy compared to other dealers I’ve tried. It’s worth the shot !

Review №23

I bought a car from drivetime and I drove my car less than 2 weeks and under 500 miles before my brakes completely failed while I was driving the car. To my astonishment I was told they could do nothing for me and I would have to deal with not having a car while they figured out what happened. Considering that I was sold a vehicle that put my life in danger and received some of the worst customer service and absolutely zero empathy for the situation I would recommend finding a vehicle somewhere else that considers there customers safety before, during, and after the sale of a vehicle.

Review №32

I would definitely recommend Drive Time Fresno location to everyone. I just recently purchased a vehicle from them and the service I received was excellent. I made it to the dealership about 5 minutes before they closed and I was still invited in and ask to wait as everyone else had left and Wes was the only salesman and he was working with a customer. While I was waiting Ian came out to help me even though his job is not as a car salesman he showed me all my options and set me up for a test drive that night the test drive didnt happen because the car battery was dead. I was offered another option or I could wait for them to get a new battery the next day I wanted that car so I waited. I was assured that the car would be ready first thing in the morning and it was. I finished all of my paperwork with Wes and drove home in my new vehicle which I love.

Review №58

This was a good first time experience. Juan and Eric were very helpful. Wesley Read was amazing. They were all very friendly and werent bad to look at to boot. The company they used to finance the loan however is true to form in that they nickel and dime with all these fees. Be prepared to pay an extra $500+ because they charge to accept a payment. I would come here again but finance through other means.

Juan was amazing! Came from Sacramento with my mom, not only did he pick us up from the train station but he was patient and informative. Coming from 3 hours away was definitely a decision I was skeptical about but in the end worked out better than we couldve imagined. Highly recommend Drive time and most importantly Juan!

Review №63

I applied online to see if I would get approved for a particular car on the lot, my approval came back with a quote that I would only need to have $195.00 for a down payment and since I only applied for this one particular car I assumed that the down payment quote was correct, so I set up an appointment to come by and look at the car and talk about financing. The following day a rude man from the lot called to follow up and make sure I was still planning to come by and check out the car, at that point I started asking questions about the online pre approval down payment amount. The man said that everyone gets that amount quoted to them when they are approved online but the amount is only correct if I’m planning on buying a car that costs less than $12,000.... why didn’t they disclose that when I applied!? Such a waste of time!! After reading other reviews about how Drivetime does business... predatory loans with higher than average interest rates, and cars that break down and have problems right away. Stay away from here.

I wish we knew about this place before we got hit with junk cars. My youngest daughter also bought a car here and my oldest will also buy her first car here. DriveTime has customers for life. Thank you so much for providing us with reliable vehicles. This company needs to be in every state! Rosetta Ballard and family. I actually give 10 stars!!!!!

Review №69

I bought a car from them and had some issues with the car a few WEEKS later. They offered no help, even though I bought the extended warranty. I think bc they sell cars to people with bad credit, they take advantage. My interest rate was 20% (recent bankruptcy due to medical bills). So I had to make a large down payment to lower the interest. I definitely think it’s predatory lending because they didn’t tell me what my final interest rate was until the day I bought the car. Like I said, because I had enough money for a down payment, my interest was lower. Also, their customer service is terrible! My car died and I needed something immediately. My advice would be to shop around.

Weasley Read was very professional and did not pressure us in anyway to buy a car or mind us looking around. Very helpful and even went out of his way to work with us in our unique situation of travel. This rating alone is based on the customer service but to add even more the car was priced very competitively and we got a great deal when we did decide to purchase. I would recommend this car dealership to any friend or family, great experience. 👍

I purchased a car on 03-16-2018 with Eric Long at the Fresno Branch on Blackstone and Ashlan. The Customer service skills where honestly above and beyond what I expected Eric truly was a great salesman with compassion and took the time to work things out for me to get into a vehicle the same day. Where other places I felt like it was just another sale $$$$ but it was a warm and pleasant at Drive Time. I also encountered the manager Cecilia and agents Richard and Jesse who were just as knowledgeable and helpful! My car looks brand new though used and runs amazing. I would highly recommend any one with any type of credit history to try them out!!! THANK YOU DRIVE TIME AND BRIDGE CREST.

THIS IS THE BEST DEALERSHIP EVER. I was denied everywhere in Fresno & they were able to approve me I could not believe it!. I had 2 repos on my credit from 15 & I was given a second chance!. It means so much to me & my growing family to be able to have transportation, I could not thank them enough I want to cry. Sal is the best, you need to talk to him!. He is the man for the job. Awesome place, awesome people!. Thanks so much Sal!.
