i purchased a 2007 cheverolet impala from the dt in lewisville, tx. come to find out the car was used to transport dope. i questioned the sales rep and manager about the smell and was told the car had been sitting for awhile and the order should go away. my air went out in the car less than 3 weeks of having the car. Dec. 16, 2012 around 4:30 pm the car just stops driving. u could not even push the car to safety. i took a wreck which was provided by dt 2 hours to get to me. I had to pay for overage. money i did not have to give. i was told to take the car to a repair shop that does not even work on transmission. towing expense was out of my pocket. Thanks to my membership with MCA i was able to get around paying towing expenses this time around. once dt was notified of the transmission failure by the repair shop they told me to take the car. no one notified me until a day later to tell me i need to have the car towed to a transmission repair shop.
 
will with the warranty department left a voicemail in forming to take the car to another repair shop a day later. called will and could not get him on the line spoke to a blake who informed me he was ordering me a new transmission which would take 2-3 to be deliever to repair shop B. spoke to the tech at repair shop B and was informed the were going to rebuild the transmission. in the mean time i am having to pay for a rental out of my pocket when i just paid $450 car note for the month of December. it appears to me drive time over inflates the price of used cars and prey on people with bad credit. they know the cars are lemmons to begin with thats why the roll the price of the warranty in to the contract price of the used lemmon they know exactly what they are doing. as a consumer i am feed up with car lots taking advantage of people.

i will be filling a complaint with the state of Texas against. so far i have not had any look with find an attorney who handles lemmon law complaints to file a law suit agains drive time. if any one know of an attorney to assist me please let me know. Thank you...

  There's a good reason for that.  The Texas lemon law covers only new vehicles and used vehicles which are still under the original manufacturers warranty.   Your 2007 Impala doesn't qualify.

   Your only real protection is having the car checked out by an independent mechanic BEFORE you buy it.  Otherwise, you have no idea what your setting yourself up for.
