After searching for many cars online and in person, I finally went to DriveTime. My experience with the staff has been wonderful. There was no rush or pushing from the associate I was working with. Sergio made me feel welcome and comfortable from beginning. He is very knowledgeable and takes his job seriously and he knows how to have fun with the customer. You dont get that with the box dealerships. I just want to thank everyone involved in the process of my car buying experience. I would recommend Sergio Pinon to everyone needing to buy a car at DriveTime!

This was by far the best car buying experience I have ever had. Sergio was fantastic as well. Extremely knowledgeable with attention to detail. He even went as far to calling the bank and got us a lower interest rate than we were initially given. He got us low payments and the car we wanted too. Thanks again Sergio for the outstanding service you provided me and my husband. GO see Sergio at the Drivetime Knoxville Location he is the man there and all the reviews about him were spot on.

We have been looking for a vehicle for awhile and found a really good deal on what we wanted. Everyone is extremely nice and the process is not bad at all. Sergio Pinon was our salesman and he was the best salesman i’ve ever went through here at DriveTime. I would recommend him to anyone.

Sergio went above and beyond for my car purchase ! He even came in on his day off to finalize my purchase !! I’ve not met another car salesman like him ! He don’t give you the run around and the “Hope” like some do, he’s very straight forward and will do anything to help you ! So if you need a Vehicle give him a call !!

My vehicle was on its last leg and had definitely seen it’s better days. I was in dire need of a new vehicle. I had already sneaked a peek at some vehicles I was interested in on the lot. I was greeted by Sergio when I walked into DriveTime and he made my buying experience exceptional. He answered all my questions I had and was very informative as well when it came to the specifics of the purchase. I ended up purchasing a few days later and could not be happier. I’m now in a safe, reliable vehicle which is a must for my children. If you are in the market for something new go to DriveTime and speak with Sergio. He’s the best at what he does hands down!

I went here months back and had a great experience and even wrote a review about how nice Sergio was and how I love my car. I still love my car and after such a great experience and a great car I finally convinced my husband to go down there to them. After being approved online we went this past Saturday and test drove 2 vehicles. What first bothered me was the condition of both vehicles. Nether was in decent condition. The first had bald tires and a brake fluid leaking. The fact of no seat belt in the back seat was extremely upsetting as I dont understand how with a inspection they missed these things! The second vehicle pulled so far to the right the steering wheel jerked out of my husbands hand while our children was in backseat! After these 2 incidents we asked to see a third vehicle and explained the issues and Im not sure why we even bothered to try a third vehicle but did. And the fact that nobody seemed to leave the desk to even come outside and talk to us or even try to make this right by making sure we could test drive a decent running vehicle is not what I expected. Our interactions was being handed keys and asking what was wrong with other vehicles. This was not the experience I had when I went. And I was floored by this! I am absolutely shocked how badly this went Saturday and even more upset about the vehicles that are on the lot. 15k was listing for both vehicles. Im not sure if this was just a bad day for the office but surely it was a embarrassing day for them with the sales department and whoever does their vehicle inspections and services! We then left and went to CarMax which showed us the level of professional courtesy we were expecting from drive time and did not receive. Also not one car on their lot that we test drove ( 4 different ones) had a single thing wrong. Basically exactly what we had expected from drive time based on my previous experience is what we actually got from CarMax. Unfortunately I do not think I can ever recommend anyone going back to drive time again. And its very sad. I love my car and I did have a great experience and always told everyone that they should go there. I will now be giving a reference to CarMax cause they went above and beyond our expectations. Im not sure what is going on with this drive time location but you failed a loyal customer and failed a new customer.

Sergio was amazing, he had us laughing throughout the whole process and actually made the car buying process fun and painless. He got me and my husband in the car we wanted and at a low monthly payment. If you need a car go see Sergio there, the reviews are right about him. Best car buying experience I ever had. Thank you so much Sergio for the phenomenal service and great deal you gave me.

My Sales Advisor Sergio was amazing!!!! Extremely Knowledgeable on vehicles, was friendly and a super funny guy. He made the car buying experience for me and my husband a memorable one.

Review №15

I honestly did not think it would be that easy, but the process was the best and fastest I have ever done. Was not there all day, and my rep was great. He showed me a Nissan Rogue and I drove and loved it so now it sits in my driveway. You also get warranty with your purchase and so much more. I would recommend everyone going there. They report to all 3 credit bureaus if you need help with your credit building. So go by and check them out they are great!!

Review №16

I was super stressed about finding a reliable vehicle and was honestly being super picky as well. Sergio was awesome! He handled all my questions and concerns like a pro! Initially, we werent able to come across any vehicle that I wanted. My words were, If Im going to accrue a debt for anything, Ive got to absolutely love it. A few days later he sent me the newest arrivals that were within my budget and I bought my Equinox the same day.He worked with me on getting everything set up before I even got there, which is a huge deal for me being limited on time.I highly recommend Drive Time and highly recommend working with Sergio. He was straight to the point and didnt avoid any of my questions like other car lots had done just to get my business.

Sergio was great! Very personable and knowledgeable. He made my experience with drive time one of my favorites. Sergio took the time to make sure I understood everything I was getting and made sure to also achieve what I was looking for in a car prior to arriving. Anyone can help me buy a car but Sergio went above and beyond to make sure I received excellent service as well. Best car buying experience ever! I am making sure all my friends and family visit Sergio for their next car purchase.

Great experience at DriveTime Knoxville! I went in with high hopes after being recommended this place by a friend. Andrew exceeded my expectations! He was very helpful and willing to take the time to explain the whole process to me. He gave me options based on my needs needs and budget, and helped me find exactly what I was looking for! Would definitely recommend this place to others.

Shoutout to Sergio Pinon at store 8801 on Kingston Pike . Thank you so much for your patience and great efforts helping me get my car. The process was quick and easy . They’re all about customers first down at drive time . I would definitely recommend my friends and family to take a trip there for their car shopping needs.

From the moment I stepped foot into Drive Time, Sergio made my experience smooth. Answered every question in detail and paid attention to everything I was asking for in a vehicle. For a mom of 3 and on the go ALL the time, he paired me up with the best vehicle to meet my needs, along with style and comfort. He seriously made car buying as easy as 123 ABC! Need a car and someone who isn’t just going to throw you into a lemon? Call Sergio at DriveTime in Knoxville! You won’t be disappointed!

Sergio Piñon Jr. was an excellent salesman. He was very professional and informative about the entire buying process. My husband and I would recommend him to any of our friends and family. He definitely deserves a Five Star Rating. He actually gets a Ten Star Rating from us. We hope to see him again when we purchase our next car.

Came to Drivetime to buy a Car and Sergio was my Sales Advisor. He was super knowledgeable and friendly and got me and my wife into the car that we wanted. He worked with the bank to make sure he got me the rate that I wanted and even washed my car at my request. This has been the best car buying experience I’ve had in all my years. Thanks Sergio for the best car buying experience ever!!!!

Review №35

The salesmen was nice and helpful. But when purchasing a car they all are. Be prepared for high rates and payments if you dont have the best credit or a cosigner. I was quoted almost $500 a month in payment cost. Thats about 1/3 of my income. Didnt go any further than hearing the payment amounts. But you CAN drive off the lot with a vehicle for $500 down THAT DAY if you qualify and everything else.

Wow! Just a great experience here. I can’t thank Andrew enough. He wasn’t about just selling me a vehicle but helping me get the right vehicle for my needs. Thanks again Andrew.

Review №37

Our experience was excellent with the Manager. She was so patient (very patient) in finding the right vehicle that we wanted. I have a exact idea what I was looking for and picky but Sheyna didn’t waiver and found our car. In the near future there’s going to be a major need for used vehicles for the computer chips aren’t being made for new vehicles due to lack of materials to make them so used cars are going to be the new hot rage. We didn’t buy due to this; we found that out on Chicago Tribune after the purchase. Don’t go to Dealerships for they are far pricier and the insides are used and abused. Just drive to a local Drive Time dealership and you’ll be very pleased! 😊

Review №45

It being the first time Ive ever went to a car dealer for a vehicle, I have to say it was a long process. However it was very well worth it. Mr. Statham at the Kingston pike DriveTime was an absolute joy to deal with and genuinely seem as though he cared. So Im on the hook for 17 grand, but it is affordable and the car is super nice. I was very impressed with the service, totally not what I expected and Im very grateful for that.So Mr. Statham, and the rest of the folks, at DriveTime....Thank you and keep up the fine work you do.

As a former employee and working for and with Shena, it doesn’t get any better. For the right customer Drivetime can help people get back on their feet from a credit and an overall comfortable buying experience. Stop by Drivetime Knoxville and you will not be disappointed. Shena is my friend and I promise you will be taken care of.

From the beginning to end, Jason at DriveTime Knoxville, was outstanding (along with every other person that contributed). If you take time to understand the process, utilize the 5 days to take you car to a mechanic for peace of mind, & ask questions then you will be hard pressed to find a car buying experience as transparent, as simple, and as awesome. Jason absolutely goes out of his way for me (I am very particular), never loses his patience, always responds in a timely manner, and has been completely honest about everything he knows. My experience was so good that we are returning to purchase a second vehicle when we have options to go wherever we want for the most part. Thank you DriveTime! You have a lifelong customer! And, Jason, to not get anything more from my sale than the next, THANK YOU for being so good to me!!!

I had a hard time finding a car lot that could work with my low down payment I needed. I called drive time and was put thru to Sergio. He helped me do most of the paper work thru the phone. Once down there he was right there helping me. He was honest and upfront on the vehicles. He helped me and my children with a great vehicle and I couldnt tell you how much I appreciate everything he did to make sure I drove away with this car. He is a great person and a very honest salesman. Always ask for him!!! You will leave happy. On a side note if you see this review Sergio you definitely deserve employee of the month just for helping me. Again thank you Sergio!!

Review №83

This was by far the best car buying experience I have ever experienced in my life!! Me and my wife were in need of a new car since our previous vehicle had died on us. We had seen a commercial on TV about Drivetime, so we decided to do some research and get more information about the company. The Company had great reviews on google specifically for the Knoxville location. There is a salesman there by the name of Sergio Pinon who literally owned the whole google reviews page for the Knoxville location. I would say about 90% of the reviews for the Knoxville location was all about Sergio talking about how funny he was, how knowledgeable he was on different makes and models and how he helped customers get into a vehicle when no one else would. There was literally not one negative comment said about Sergio, they were all positive reviews. After reading the reviews, we set out to make an appointment and work with the man who was named Sergio. When we got there we asked for Sergio and he was available to help us. From beginning to end, Sergio had me and my wife laughing on the floor with all his jokes. He gave us pro and cons on every vehicle and was extremely knowledgeable about the car industry as whole. He was extremely detailed and explained finances to us in the simplest of forms that I am sure even a child in grade school would have also understood his explanation, LOL. I can definitely see now why all the reviews were about Sergio on Google. This guy was charismatic, he was friendly and gave me and my wife the best car buying experience I have had in all my 52 yrs. An experience we both will never forget. Out of 5 stars I give Sergio a 10 for being simply awesome. I highly recommend DriveTime If you are needing a car and definitely go see Sergio, you will not regret it, He is truly the man there!!!
