Drive Time, Josh, Chuck. There is no coordination between the dealership and corporate Mesa Arizona

YOU failed to live up to YOUR end of the contract and now you want DriveTime to give you the car back?

Thank you for your service to our country, but it doesn't get you out of your obligations...nor should you expect special treatment in this regard because you're a vet.

You fail to make payments, you lose it. That's how it works.

You admit that you failed to make payments and the vehicle was reposessed. Now you expect them to just give it back to you? That's not how it works.

Assuming that they haven't sold the car yet, the very least you'd be responsible for would be all of the payments and late charges to get you current, plus reposession and storage fees. Vet or not, that's how any lender would treat you. That would also be considered "working with you". If they didn't want to work with you, the car would be sold at auction (probably below market value).

You make think that's harsh, but those are the consequences for not living up to your financing agreement. It would be the same for anyone else in your position.
