Worst experience ever!
Less then one month from getting this car from DriveTime in Downey, CA..... I've had so many issues and the issues continue without help. I'm a single mom. I've had emergencies and without a vehicle makes it harder for me to get around and money I can't keep spending. Why do you sell lemons to people in need? Having to spend thousands on a car I literally just got and still having to make payments is completely unfair and so disgusting that you would take advantage of people.

Buyer Beware Do not purchase from them
Buyer Beware Do not purchase from them. Car broke down Warning Engine Malfunction Power Reduce Service Now! Do Not Drive! 30 days after purchasing car, Barely drove it. Spark Plugs need to be replaced. Guarantee what happens after you purchase will not be covered under your warranty. They are nice and welcoming until you purchase. They are scammers!!! SCAMMERS!!!
