DriveTime in Brandon, FL

Visitor Review: In May 2011 I purchased a vehicle from the DriveTime in Brandon FL. The car was nice, clean with decent miles. Of course the car was overpriced but I really needed a car and a second chance at re-establishing credit.

I purchased the car on a Friday, the following Monday it left me stranded in downtown Tampa. The car had to be towed to a car shop. It turns out that the transmission gave out without a warning.

I'm waiting for the shop to put a new used transmission in. What bothers me the most is that when I went to pick up my registration the sales person asked me about the car and I told him that it was in the shop and why. His exact reply was "already??". As if he knew that there was something wrong with the vehicle from the get go.

I would advice anyone to look elsewhere to purchase a used car. These folks are not honest.
