If you’re looking for a vehicle

If you’re looking for a vehicle, go see Jay at DriveTime in Athens! Buying a car can be overwhelming, but Jay and the rest of the staff were incredibly patient and never made me feel rushed. The atmosphere there is welcoming and professional. I’m so happy with my purchase and the top-tier service I received. Thank you, Jay!

Super excited!

I worked in customer service enough to know a stellar associate when I experience one. Mason is the reason I didn’t say I’ll come back another time. I’m so happy with his kindness and expertise!

Drivetime bad for business

​I am writing this formal letter to express my absolute outrage and profound disappointment regarding the 2020 Chevrolet Sonic LT I purchased from your dealership in July 2025; this vehicle has proven to be a defective, dangerous, and unreliable product that has utterly derailed my life and the lives of my children. When I bought this car, it had approximately 50,000 miles on it, and in the five months since, I have put fewer than 6,000 miles on the odometer, yet I am now facing a catastrophic mechanical failure that the shop has quoted between $6,000 and $7,000 to repair. It is physically impossible for a well-maintained, inspected vehicle to develop a cracked engine block, a cracked radiator, and a blown cylinder head within such a short window of time unless these issues were pre-existing, masked, or the result of gross negligence during your "reconditioning" process. I was sold a "lemon" under the guise of a reliable family vehicle, and your staff’s refusal to help me—stating that I cannot even trade the vehicle because I haven’t reached a one-year ownership mark—is a predatory and heartless response to a crisis your product created. Because of this car’s failure, I have been forced to stop working, and I am currently unable to transport my children to school, leaving my family in a state of financial and logistical ruin while I am still expected to make payments on a vehicle that is essentially a pile of scrap metal. Your company claims to help people get on the road, but instead, you have scammed me into a high-interest loan for a faulty machine and are now leaving me stranded without a single solution or ounce of accountability. I am demanding that DriveTime Corporate intervene immediately to authorize a collateral swap for a functional vehicle or cover the total cost of these repairs, as I will not be silenced while my livelihood is destroyed by your deceptive business practices. I am prepared to escalate this to the Better Business Bureau, the State Attorney General, and every social media platform available to ensure other parents are not victimized by this dealership the way I have been; I expect a resolution that reflects the gravity of this situation immediately.

Thank you for leaving your review, Tyrah Martin. We understand that mechanical concerns are never ideal. All our vehicles go through our inspection process which is backed by a Limited Warranty for mechanical failures within the first 30-days/1,500-miles. We also offer a 5-day Vehicle Return Policy, that allows our customers the opportunity to inspect and get comfortable with their purchase. If you have additional questions, please send us a DM or call our Customer Relations Department at (888) 290-0148.
