Canada Drives Opiniones 3508

Had a "financial manager" AJ reach out to me and after giving all appropriate information and working on a pre approval I was then ghosted. I do not recommend.

They were very friendly to us and created time on a Saturday

We bought 2 cars, the first one appeared to be ok and I haven't had much trouble except I was told after 6 months rthey would refinance it to a lower rate. They are avoiding me like the plague. Also found damage that detail had covered up. 2nd car came no floor mats, smelled like ciggarettes and still does. wont come out. no services ever. came from salvage auction it seems. its all a scam ! Dont do it.

Wanted to look at cars and had a very specific shopping list. Went to the website yesterday and had to fill out a financing application even though I am paying cash. Then received texts, email and phone calls every hour for the past 36hrs. They still try even though they don't know what car I want! How dumb and inconvenient is that??? They are the online equivalent of the polyester and leisure suit salespeople of the 1970s!!! They dont sell cars...they sell financing!!!

Ever since I contacted Canada Drives and provided some of my information, I have had an average of 7 to 10 spam calls per day. This is ongoing and it's been almost 3 to 4 weeks. They obviously sell your information. Do not deal with this company.

This company claims to approve everyone no matter if you have good or bad credit. We'll that's not true!!
I have a vehicle with $8000 owing and because I have negativity equity they tell no lenders will accept me.
So people with bad credit and don't have a person that can co-sign do not apply for a loan from this company as they cannot help you!!

Canada Drive's response to my initial inquiry was very swift - with repeated calls during regular work hours.  After booking a time more convenient for me & multiple texts about what I am looking for, I was informed I would be connected with a sales rep from a local car lot. 

I wasn't yet impressed with Canada Drives (I could have gone to that lot for myself - and actually had been there to look around after hours already) but decided to trust the process and wait for the call. 

Silence. 

Two weeks later I received a startup call and text again from Canada Drives - "thank you so much for reaching out. We would love to help you find a vehicle. Let's chat about what you're looking for".  Again, during work hours. 

I replied with a text explaning that I was disappointed to say I never heard from anyone, saw no value-add with Canada Drives, was told a sales rep would call but they never did, and I have already purchased a vehicle. 

Do I receive any acknowledgement that they received my text? Maybe wanting to apologize for poor service? 

No. A rep from the local car lot calls and texts saying they'd love to help me find my next vehicle.  And again, during work hours.

I see absolutely no value-add in dealing with Canada Drives.

We were contacted by Canada Drives after they probably saw one of our ads in 3 different Cars for sale websites.

A woman contacted us on a Friday, her message was efficient, providing us with all the information we required including a fair quote for the car for someone who is a reseller. She said she'd contact us on Monday to see if we'd like to to proceed further with an inspection to see if the quote required any adjustments.

On Monday she called, we drove down to their office in Richmond. The inspection person was thorough and professional. Then we met with a gentlemen in the office to discuss the final quote for the car. He was also extremely profession and an all around nice guy! There was a brief discussion on an adjustment to their original quote due to the insurance claims that were on the history of the car from the prior owners. We said we understood their position, however, we discussed that we had another close offer for the car at week's end, so if they could meet the original quote we'd accept the sale today. They did pay us the original estimate and we were out the door within the hour!

Deal signed, license plate removed. We received our direct deposit within a few hours. Not much else I could ask for!! I highly recommend Canada Drives to sell your call!

I just filled the form to see their options, and low and behold there is credit check on my credit report!! sleek move! credit check is should must be final stage! nobody knows your dealer have the car I want or not!

I regret filling out the form on this website. I initially believed it was a simple online service to explore car options, but I was immediately overwhelmed with constant calls and texts. Despite emailing them and clearly requesting that they stop contacting me, the outreach continued relentlessly.
What shocked me most was the behavior of one of their agents, who scolded me for not answering the phone and said, “You took 40 minutes of my time—you have to answer!” This level of aggression is completely unacceptable.
I’ve made it clear multiple times that I’m no longer interested and do not wish to be contacted, but my requests have been ignored. This company’s approach is intrusive, rude, and highly unprofessional. I strongly advise others to think twice before providing their contact information.

I applied online to see what they could offer me in terms of a vehicle, interest rate, price etc. as I was shopping around to get the best deal possible. I spoke to Samuel and he was possibly one of the most aggressive and rude sales people I have ever spoke to. When I stated what my preference of vehicle and budget was he began to explain to me how that was never possible and I had to finance a $25,000-$30,000 car in order to get the payments I budgeted for. He spoke so aggressively and I couldn’t get a word in. The conversation lasted for about 10 minutes and it was mainly him “explaining” to me how financing a vehicle works and how credit scores/credit enquiries work (as if I didn’t know or didn’t educate myself… maybe he assumed because I was a woman?) Anytime I spoke, I was rudely interrupted and “corrected” on my misinformed opinion. I have never had an experience like this in my life and it’s quite clear their sales people prey on vulnerable people who may not be fully educated on financing vehicles and who may not speak up for themselves when talked to so aggressively.

Anyway, my so called “unattainable and non-existent” budget as per Samuel actually was attainable and existent as another dealer approved me for those payments and my vehicle is on its way.

Stay clear of this company!

I'd give a zero if I could. Went online to look at vehicles available on the Canada Drives site (FYI you cannot view vehicles until you submit the credit app). I did not want to submit a credit or finance application, so exited. However, they already had my phone number and started calling, then texting. I finally spoke with someone and provided the details of the car I wanted. He asked about submitting a credit application, which I declined as I have great credit and would obtain my own financing.
Next thing I know I am getting calls from Journey Chrysler, I have never been in contact with this company. I then received an Equifax alert that Journey Chrysler had submitted a credit enquiry. I NEVER approved this enquiry. I immediately tried calling J/C multiple times, most often they do not answer. When I did actually get through, I was always transferred, left voice mails and no return calls. I spoke with the finance department, who advised she did not make the enquiry and stated she would transfer me, while I was still asking her a question, she transferred the call, to whom I do not know? Left yet another voicemail, I then tried calling the Manager, again to no avail. I think this company is linked with Canada Drives, both of which in my opinion are scammers.

Finally, I have submitted a complaint with Equifax and BBB. Please be mindful when if you deal with either of these companys.

Really excellent customer service from Taylor for setting up the entire process for selling my vehicle. It was very easy with good communication and a very fair offer.
Kris was very friendly and thorough with the inspection of my vehicle. Everything was straight forward and honest. Definitely happy with the entire experience.

I made the mistake of applying to their service when I was looking for a car. They have contacted me for over a month now, with various numbers with different salespeople's names (I lost count around 7 different numbers).

I have been asking them to stop contacting me as I am not looking at this time. The text messages keep coming, each time from a new number.

I would give them zero stars if I could. Stay away.

0 stars. I applied to see what type of vehicles were for sale since it insinuates they also have inventory to view. I told them I did not require financing, so I am not sure why they would show me cars if they did not get a deal to finance. He hung up.

Man these guy, what a bunch of guys, hilarious, sold me a tonka truck love it.

I’ve yet to receive my car! Have had to wait almost a week,,Because of excuses and lack of communication. I had a family member pass and really could have used a car! Was approved on a Wednesday and it’s now Monday and still no car. I used Canada drives years back and was able to fill out the application and within less than 2 daysbI was in a car. I feel like my patience and kindness are being tested. I o asked if I could back out of the deal and was told no, then bank has approved the funding! So I’m feeling bullied and why wouldn’t I especially knowing they are getting a ton of money off of me in the next few years.

Applied at Canada drives, and was contacted by a Justin Davis (343-996-9398) a senior sales manager and Dale ( 613-866-6218) a sales rep regarding my application. First time around it was a. Very unpleasant experience that resulted in a bad review here. Dale contacted me and asked if we could work it out, and I agreed to allow them the opportunity to make things right
Found the car I wanted to buy, Dale made statements regarding the deal, forming part of the deal, and I said ok.
Justin sends me the documents and this is where things went from bad to criminal.
The financing docs were ok, but Justin’s bill of sale was another story. The odometer was wrong, a second set of payments and dates were on it, no description of the equipment and condition Dale promised in writing via text were on the bill. The best part was it had a bold clause making this a final sale. I asked Dale for a copy of the Car Fax and photos of the car and its VIN visible to compare ti the documents they were hounding me to sign over and over and over. I had a very hard time to get the pictures of the car, and when I finally got them sent I was flabbergasted. These SCAMMERS SWITCHED THE CAR. They we’re trying to unload his knows what, as a final sale . I ASKED Justin Davis to prepare an accurate bill of sale, and was told they have 15 deals on the go so I need to bugger off!!!
Had I signed, I would have likely received a wrecked vehicle, not yet reported as damaged, hence clear car fax, been saddled with two sets of payments, totaling to over $120 000, and no recourse.

The bill was from some used truck dealer in Brinston Ontario, called Used Trucks Ottawa, I checked them through OMVIC and they don’t show up. Them called
The used car dealer’s association and they told me to RUN, because the bill of sale is the binding document, nothing else really matters , and the manufacturer of my particular chosen vehicle doesn’t participate in the consumer protection in place in Ontario for used car buyers

If these so called dealers indeed have another 15 deals at this time, and they do the same they will have stollen aver a million and half dollars from unsuspecting clients.
This will need to become a police matter.

As a final insult to injury, Canada Drives sent me a satisfaction review request. I told them what I’ve stated above, and haven’t heard a peep back.

Run, you will be robbed blind

Great help, very friendly

You took a risk on me
