On March 11, 2015, our customer contacted Aeverex and expressed concerns about a loud noise coming from the vehicle when turningAeverex authorized our customer to take the vehicle to an out-of-network repair facility. On March 12, 2015, a repair facility filed a claim with Aeverex for the struts, brake pads, and rotorsAeverex requested a third-party inspector be sent to the repair facility to verify and document the failures on these parts. On March 13, 2015, the third-party inspector contacted Aeverex and advised there were no failures or abnormalities demonstrated with the struts, brake pads, and rotors at this timeAeverex approved the diagnostic fee under the terms of the DriveCare Limited Warranty, but all repairs were denied due to no documented failuresAttached is the inspection report for your review. All DriveTime vehicles are thoroughly inspected at our DriveTime inspection centers prior to saleParts that fail inspection are replacedHowever, if a part is functioning at the time of inspection, there is no need to replace it.

On May 6, 2014, our customer entered into a Closed End Motor Vehicle Lease with DriveTime, when she leased a Nissan SentraWhile DriveTime originated the Lease and is the Lessor, Bridgecrest Credit Company is the servicer for the LeaseThe vehicle came with a Driver’s Seat Limited Warranty, administered by AeverexOn September 29, 2016, our customer contacted Bridgecrest to report that her vehicle was in a total loss accident on September 27, and to provide insurance informationOn this same day, our customer contacted DriveTime to express her frustration that the vehicle’s blue book value was significantly less than the lease price, and that there was an airbag related recall on the vehicle in May of that she was not notified ofRecalls are administered by the vehicle manufacturers and their franchisees. We are not allowed to do any recall work and in some cases may not receive manufacturer notices. As a listed lessee, the manufacturer should have sent a notice to our customer. In addition, we also clarify in our customer’s warranty contract that the warranty provides no benefits or coverage towards any cost or other benefit that the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) has responsibility for, including public recalls or factory service bulletins (Please see attached for full response)

I was asked to take the car to a different mechanic for another diagnostic checkThe mechanics office informed averex the warranty company thru drive time that the rotars need to be replaced and that there is a leak somewhere and that the battery needs to be replacedThey denied any repairs
Averex requested pictures of the brake pads even though the brake pads are not an issueI was told by drive time that I need to pay out of pocket for any repairs that they refuse to pay for themThe car has been at the mechanics every week or every other week since getting the vehicleAt this point the only resolution is to switch out the vehicle for one that is not unsafe to drive or to refund my deposit so I can get a working vehicle elsewhereI am not going to pay for a vehicle that I can't drive safely

Revdex.com:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ***, and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below
There are multiple inaccuracies in Drive Time's response. Drive Time has not once attempted to contact neither myself nor my husband, *** ***. No messages have been left for me to return a call and no certified mail notice has been received. I have not received a $American Express Gift card either, though I would say $is FAR from the over $that Drive Time is trying to extort from me. $gift card does not cover the fact that the car was repossessed while I was at work and thus was stranded with no way to get home on a Friday evening
There are also several discrepancies with the Lease Agreement that Drive Time had attached. First and foremost, the contract states that "Any change to this lease must be in writing and we must sign it. No oral changes are binding." Yet throughout the year Drive Time has made multiple changes to the lease terms all that were discovered verbally. There was never a new lease agreement signed or any notice in writing stating changes to the lease. In Section of the Lease Agreement it states "The charge for late payments is $for any payment not received within ten (10) days of the due date. Yet the car was first sent for repossession on the fourth business day of being late and the car was not starter disabled as also stated by Drive Time would happen on the fourth business day
It is also contradicted in the Early Termination sections on page and then again in Section on page 3. On page it states that there will be penalty for Early Termination of the lease in the amount of several thousands of dollars. However in Section on page the Early Termination is stated completely different
On September 5, 2014, when the car was repossessed from our driveway very early in the morning, I had to pay Drive Time a repossession fee of $+ $payment fee. The representative told me this was for the payment of the repossession. He then told me that the storage fee from the repo company was $a day but since I was picking up the same day that they would pro-rate my storage fee. When I called the repo company, I was told this was incorrect information and that it was $a day regardless and it was the repossession fee that I would be paying. When I went to the repo company to make the payment and retrieve my car, I was told that the repo company has a contract with Drive Time that it is REQUIRED that the repo company return the leased vehicle to Drive Time within hours. So not only did I have to pay a repossession fee twice but if I had not picked up the vehicle that same day I would have had to pay for storage to a company that wasn't even storing the vehicle
I want my vehicle back as well as a credit for the $that I paid to Drive Time since the repossession fee was paid to the repo company OR I want compensated for the brand new front tires and brakes that I had just put on the vehicle that I have receipts for
