Drive Time Ugly Duckling still ripping off. Want a class action lawsuit? Marietta Georgia

Just look at the sorry subprime welfare type deadbeats wail. They wouldn't be dealing with a subprime lender if they would have paid their bills on time. But that's the nature of the welfare type. They think they are entitled to a lower APR even when their sorry reputation shows they are serial deadbeats. The sorry, stinking, subprime welfare types of America...a blight to this society.

I had started this on rip off report. I will be more than happy to join just let me know what I have to do.

I too am getting ripped off and would like to see something done about it.

It was last year when my fioncae had bought a car from Drivetime. Their warranty stinks so bad. He had traveled to PA where we were at, at the time for my job. No longer than a month latter after purchasing the vehicle the transmission decieds to go out. Unfortunately it was in PA where we were. In teh warranty it does no state whether it would not be valid if you traveled out of state. The 100% coverage of repair. They stated they will only cover not even 25%. On top of everything else they started to call references and haarassing them as well about the car when he was 1 day late on paying.

I am a victim also. I purchased a 2007 Suzuki Forenza which i basically a lemon but it is a used car. They charged me extremely high interest rate. I have been paying for 1 year and still owe $17,000 plus on the car. I went to see if I can trade it in to another dealership and they only would offer me $4,000.  Lets just say the car has been nothing but problems and is very dangerous. The check engine light came on about 2 weeks after purchas and they said it was perfect. Here the  engine oil gets thrown into the throttle body from the "blow by" issue. ( Compression loss of the engine). The car doesn't have a throttle cable because its "fly-by-wire".  Also there is a  malfunction in the transmission range sensor where it puts the vehicle in "P" or "N" while I am driving on the highway. All of these issues are not being recognized by Suzuki Motor Corp. Suzuki claims that these vehicles have absolutely no problem and that they are "Commercially Acceptable" and because of that reason they are not going to open any recalls. We have done an investigation with ASE certified technicians on this issue and have  confirmed this information with a Suzuki internal technician and an engine machine shop in Orlando. When brought to Drive Time's attention they could care less. I could die driving the car bought from them and have yet to get a response from their legal department ( Its been 2 months now) My only option is to get a new car and have my Suzuki repossessed. HELP ME I AM ALL FOR A CLASS ACTION

Both you were complaining about the 29% interest rate? What did the rate say in your contract that you signed? If it said said a different rate then you need to lookin the contract for adjusted rates due to missed payments. Could be like a credit card that is offereing 7%. However, if you miss one payment, they may raise your rate to say 19%. However, if you agreed to the 29% and signed the contract, then that is your fault. The second person also complained about them demanding the diference. I am also certain that was in the contract as well. If you signed it then you agreed to be responsible for any shortage between what they sold the car for and what you owed them, should they need to repossess the car. Again, this is standard as well. While these are drastic measures taken, you both need to go back and re-examine your contracts. All responsibilites and commitments (yours and the financing company's) are spelled out. Should those commitments be broken, then the contract spells out what action that may be taken. If it is in the contract and you singed it, you need to live with it. Now if they took measure that is not in the contract, then that is another story.

I purchased a car from Ugly Duckling in August 2000 under the exact same circumstances you listed. I moved to NY in Oct 2000 because of my elderly parents and had difficulty finding work immediately. I called Ugly Duckling to renegotiate my 29% interest rate and biweekly payments and they refused to negotiate with me. I told them they would need to reposess the car then because I could not meet their repressive conditions. At that point I had made $2000 in payments on a car with a bluebook value of 3600. They repossed my car and sold it at auction for $1600. Now a collection service is trying to collect another $5000 from me. I am willing to go all the way against these predators.
