I'll preface this with stating that I am, and have always been, in good standing regarding my lease since I signed in May. I would definitely not recommend leasing from Brite.

As soon as you sign your lease, you're just a number to them. The customer service is pretty lackluster if you have a legitimate issue, and the lease is entirely restrictive. No payment date changes (although they are willing to postpone payments to work around pay dates), no real support if you have a serious issue that doesn't affect them, and you obviously pay a premium for leasing with them with bad credit.

They require a GPS unit/starter interrupter so they can disable your car if you become past due. This unit wires into the ignition, and if you do not have remote start, you cannot have remote start installed due to the wiring of the GPS unit. I was told, prior to leasing, that I could install remote start. I, of course, didn't get this in writing so I have no grounds to stand on, but the point is: the GPS unit is a thorn in your side.

Despite the fact that I do have a car with a payment that I can afford (granted I'll end up paying a large amount over what the car is actually worth), I have a decent car, I wouldn't sign again. They don't care about their customers, and they probably have some practices that are going to end up with them receiving legal action in the future for predatory practices.
