AutoNation Toyota Las Vegas

It took me and my wife two years to go back to a Toyota Dealer because of a negative experience with a Sales Guy from the Henderson Area (Findlay) who was HARD SELLING the car to us. That guy was so annoyi Dealer because of a negative experience with a Sales Guy from the Henderson Area (Findlay) who was HARD SELLING the car to us. That guy was so annoying that we held on to our 8 year old car for two years. To all Car Salesman, remember always that people who go to a car dealer are already 90% decided to purchase a car. We just do not want to be pushed or pressured... Anyway, a week ago we decided to visit Carmax and see other options. We saw a very nice well equipped Prius that my wife really wanted to buy. It had 35000 miles on it for $26000 (excluding tax). I am so glad that we did not purchase the car right away because just about 2 miles away there was a Toyota Dealer (Desert Toyota @ West Sahara). We were met by a very calm and friendly sales person named GENE McCauliff. Please, please, please look for this guy because he is HONEST, NOT PUSHY and PROFESSIONAL! We had to come back after a week to thank him because of our great experience with him. We love our brand new Prius II and we got it for $25500 (0 miles, excluding tax)! Thanks a lot GENE!!! More

On Thursday, Sept. 30 I visited Desert Toyota. I found On Thursday, Sept. 30 I visited Desert Toyota. I found the salesman & Sales Manager to be friendly, but insulting. The salesman asked me twice if On Thursday, Sept. 30 I visited Desert Toyota. I found the salesman & Sales Manager to be friendly, but insulting. The salesman asked me twice if I wanted them to evaluate my current vehicle for a trade-in. I expect to be asked this question only once. What part of NO do they not understand? When I did not want to buy the used vehicle(a Lexus RX) for the price they were offering & said that I would continue looking, he brought out the Sales Manager for the hard sale. I am an experienced negotiator & will not fall for a salesman's pitch. I do find them insulting & will take my business elsewhere. The Sales Manager explained to me again how much work they put into the car & what it is worth. I had to explain to him, after going through the whole thing with the salesman, of my situation. I told the Sales Manager, as I had to the salesman, that my wife-who was not there-had to approve of the deal. He asked me "but who is going to do most of the driving?", as if my wife's opinion should not count. He then proceeded to try to talk me into buying a different type of vehicle, even though I made it clear I only wanted a Lexus RX. I find this type of treatment to be very insulting & will take my business somewhere else. I have been to Findlay Toyota, Findlay Acura, & Lexus of Las Vegas & found none of this insulting treatment. I think I will buy from Lexus of Las Vegas, as they are renown for their superior service & they offer a 3-year bumper-to bumper warranty with their used car sales.

Subject: DESERT TOYOTA DEALERSHIP CUSTOMER REVIEW IN LAS VEGAS I recently purchased an expensive Toyota Automobile(MODEL NOT MENTIONED FOR OBVIOUS REASONS). As a new customer, they will treat you like VEGAS I recently purchased an expensive Toyota Automobile(MODEL NOT MENTIONED FOR OBVIOUS REASONS). As a new customer, they will treat you like a "King" but in the back of their mind lays the fact "How can I screw this guy for every buck I can squeeze out of him"!!! If you must buy from this dealership (BECAUSE THEY HAVE THE ONLY MODEL COLOR ETC) Make sure you take a good accountant with you to review the contract. I got taken because I let my guard down and was trusting!!!! Take my word the fee that you will pay for an accountant will well worth it as in the long run it will save you many $$$$$$. I got taken for an expense that should have been Desert Toyota expense. It was hidden in the contract!! I recently visited Findlay Toyota in Las Vegas to have the gas pedal recall done. I spoke to the service Mgr. and Sales Mgrs. and was very impressed the way they conducted business. I even referred two of my friends to them as they were in the market for a new Toyota after they saw and drove my new Toyota More

On December 3, 2004, my husband and I purchased a 2002 Toyota Camry XLE from Desert Toyota in Las Vegas, Nevada. We paid $17,991 at the dealership, $2,000 more than the posted internet price for this veh Toyota Camry XLE from Desert Toyota in Las Vegas, Nevada. We paid $17,991 at the dealership, $2,000 more than the posted internet price for this vehicle. During and after negotiations of the sale, we encountered numerous instances of dishonesty, disrespect and immorality. Under inquisition, Desert Toyota withheld vital information that the car had sustained extensive frame damage from a previous accident. It was during a routine appraisal evaluation following the sale that we learned of the prior frame damage that Desert Toyota either failed to discover, or neglected to disclose to us. This damage had critically compromised the integrity of the vehicle, primarily, in the form of a crack in the engine block. It also significantly reduced the value of the car, leaving us with thousands of dollars in negative equity unbeknownst to us for months. Various other minor structural damage and malfunctioning systems became evident immediately upon delivery of the vehicle: a non-functioning rear defroster, a leaking rear windshield (which resulted in flooding of the trunk), a cracked and leaking windshield fluid container, several misaligned and broken consoles, and a strong pull to the right. These systems had all passed a 160 point inspection conducted by an in-house technician, however were all malfunctioning at the time of the sale. This information was apparently either overlooked or ignored by the staff at Desert Toyota. The malfunctioning systems were evident to us instantly upon taking delivery of the vehicle; we owned the car for less than 48 hours before it spent the next 30 days at Desert Toyota’s service center being repaired. Desert Toyota advertently misrepresented this damage to Toyota Motor Corporation; they claimed “defective material” on the service requests and failed to cite the prior accident, as to receive warranty coverage for the leaking engine and other systems – a blatant act of fraud that is easily extrapolated to the rest of their business practices. Desert Toyota then failed to deliver to us a compensatory extended service contract, as repeatedly promised, to protect our interest in the case that future repairs, due to their negligence, became necessary. After numerous confrontations with their management team regarding business practices and ethics, we became wise to the fact that they were unwilling to honor any of their pledges or do anything to rectify an immoral and dishonest transaction; we finally asked them to repurchase the vehicle from us, to which they flatly refused. During every transaction with Desert Toyota’s management team, with the exception of the initial sale, we were treated with apathy, disrespect, and sarcasm. Not one member of the sales or management team, including and especially the General Sales Manager, considered our satisfaction a priority, as they did exactly nothing to either validate our concerns surrounding our buying experience or to retain us as customers. Instead, I found myself fervently arguing for a mere apology, which I never received. I would certainly not recommend this dealership to anyone seeking an honest transaction and a quality product.

I am extremely pleased with the sales service that I received. I purchased a Toyota Echo and had gotten Desert Toyota as an internet dealer through carsdirect.com.<br>Score one - my sales rep Bobby D'Am received. I purchased a Toyota Echo and had gotten Desert Toyota as an internet dealer through carsdirect.com.<br>Score one - my sales rep Bobby D'Amora told me to call him so I wouldn't be met with any of the other (non-internet/fleet) sales associates. He was no b.s. and explained everything clearly and simply. <br>Score Two - Chris Ditmore in finance. No surprises. Everything completely explained. I had done internet financing and my purchase was done on a Saturday. It could not be verified or funded til Monday. The finance agreement (in case my original loan falls through) was filled out completely with the same percent and finance terms as my other loan. I have heard horror stories of this being left blank at other places. Not here. Kudos.<br>Score Three - Reggie Miller manager internet/fleet sales. Best kept secret on the dealership lot. <br>Score Four - Rene in customer service. Pleasant young lady that hands you the keys to your car and explains the features of the car. I was also impressed with the DVD she gave me.<br>Score Five - The car. I love it.<br><br>I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS DEARLERSHIP AND THE INTERNET/FLEET SALES TEAM.<br> More
