Shady business practices Buyer beware. This dealership is untrustworthy and does not honor written contracts. I signed a leasing agreement that indicated excess mileage would Buyer beware. This dealership is untrustworthy and does not honor written contracts. I signed a leasing agreement that indicated excess mileage would be billed at .12 cents per mile. One month later after trying to get my license plates I was told a mistake was made and the real charge is .20 per mile. The manager refused to honor the written contract so I settled for a monetary payment. I received written confirmation of the monetary payment and two weeks later I have not received payment. I called the dealership and spoke to Ray (says he runs the place) and after first hanging up on me said he would look into it. Next step is to file a complaint with NJ Division of Consumer Affairs as this is the second written agreement this dealership has refused to honor. More
Pure waste of time and money If I could give this place a negative score I would love to. Don't ever buy a used car from here!!! This was the worst car buying experience of my lif If I could give this place a negative score I would love to. Don't ever buy a used car from here!!! This was the worst car buying experience of my life!! Had the car marked up over 4k, rushed me through the sale and never told me I didn't have 72 hours to bring it back after I mentioned that law was the only reason I was signing for the car right then. Not until after I signed the papers of course. I'm stuck with a car that makes noise which they said they fixed and didn't and bald tires, one of which was put back on backwards and is a different size than the other three! Incompetent salesman, arrogant, rude, idiot of a "manager". Gave me his cell when insight the car and when I sent him pics of the bald and backwards tires, told me it was his personal cell and he didnt appreciate me sending him pictures of the car and that I had to deal with someone else. Had a loaner for longer than had my new car. Car was sitting there done and no one called me for a week. The car still has issues that they refuse to fix, one of which is illegal for them to sell the car with!! But since I bought it as-is, I'm screwed. I guess morals has no place in a car dealership. Never offered me a warranty. If you're not buying brand new or spending $20 or $30,000, don't bother-you're a second class citizen to them and they'll treat you as such. I will be going to court over this and telling all of my friends and family as well as leave a bad review absolutely any place I can to save anyone from the misery of dealing with this horrible place.

Great Staff Great Experience I had initially called in to ask about a vehicle's pricing which was unlisted that I found on the website, I spoke to Ms. (Soon to be Mrs! Congrats :) I had initially called in to ask about a vehicle's pricing which was unlisted that I found on the website, I spoke to Ms. (Soon to be Mrs! Congrats :)!! ) Chelsea Wademan - she was great! Very kind and assured me she would get back to me with the information which she did in a timely manner. I then visited the dealership and was greeted by Mr. Frank Signore. Frank was FANTASTIC! I highly recommend Frank to anyone looking for a New or Pre-Owned vehicle, trust me you do not want to see ANYBODY else! He and his manager, Ray Mcanena, worked hand in hand in making my experience one of kind. I went in not expecting to take home a vehicle that day (In fact I even told them I wasn't) but due to the generosity of both Frank and Ray, I left with a beautiful VW CC! I am not an easy person to please, Frank and Ray went above and beyond and overcame every obstacle to sell me a vehicle. I am beyond pleased with my experience and I love my car. I now have a lasting impression and I will certainly recommend this dealership to my friends and family. A huge Thank-You to Frank & Ray & the entire Toms River staff! More
Fantastic experience, will be a lifelong customer! From Seth calling after an online inquiry to Tony Caruso working with me for the sale, Toms River VW was the best car buying experience I've had and t From Seth calling after an online inquiry to Tony Caruso working with me for the sale, Toms River VW was the best car buying experience I've had and they've made a lifelong customer here. Right off the bat they were never pushy, listened to my needs and gave me plenty of space to make my decision. Tony recognized that I was buying the car, not my husband, and spoke/sold to me rather than him (something I've experiences and have been frustrated by in the past!). Ken, from the service department, had experience with the exact model I was looking at and took his time to show every feature and function in the car. Once I was comfortable with the purchase, Jorge got all of the paperwork completed and I was out the door in no time, confident in my decision to purchase my car from this dealership. Because of their help, patience and attention to customer service they have made a lifelong customer out of me. More
Best car buying experience I've ever had! One of the smoothest and best car buying experiences I've ever had. They answered all of my questions on line and even scheduled an appointment for me One of the smoothest and best car buying experiences I've ever had. They answered all of my questions on line and even scheduled an appointment for me to test drive the car. The dealership gave me a better trade in allowance for my old car and they had the exact model and color of Golf that I wanted. The sales staff was incredible, they went out of their way to explain the features on the car and answered all of my questions. It was a great buying experience and the dealership is gorgeous. They can't do enough for you at Toms River VW, when I came in early on Saturday they had fresh bagels and coffee waiting for customers. From there it was smooth sailing. I completed the purchase and I was out just before lunch! I can not say enough about the great level of service that this dealership offered me! If you're considering buy a Volkswagen you should definitely buy from them! They even offer loaner cars when you bring your in for service. More

I felt I w From the second I arrived on the lot I was attended to in a friendly, helpful manner. This continued once I was assigned to a sales person. I felt I was listened to when I told Isaac the car I was looking for and he was efficient and friendly while coming up with exactly what I wanted. The dealership worked seamlessly with me on pricing and finalizing the sale. I couldn't be more pleased and would return when I or someone I know is in the market for a new/used car. More

Unethical On 4/28/2014 we went to World Volkswagen of Toms River to seek out new car After credit was run the manager David and sales rep Chad Lorenzo said only On 4/28/2014 we went to World Volkswagen of Toms River to seek out new car After credit was run the manager David and sales rep Chad Lorenzo said only way to get one is to take the 2012 Ford Fusion for now and after making on time payments for 6 months he would get us into any care new one at 0% interest or used 1.9% under their guaranteed customer retention program . On 11/7/2014 we contacted Chad Lorenzo to start the process and were informed that they would not do it and that what David said didn't matter and he was not there anymore and he was going to see what they could do and call us back . I called them back on 11/10/14 and spoke to Glen who said nothing they could do and didn't matter what David said because he was no longer working there. David and his salesman pressured us all day and made us overpay with the understanding that they would refinance at those rates in 6 months and it would help to build up our credit. Unfortunately we were naive and they did take advantage of us with those promises. Now no one is willing to listen call back or answer to help us get this solved all we got told verbatim is tough luck and that David now works at this establishment so go there and ask him to keep that promise More
Shockingly unprofessional, aggressive and rude! As I was signing the contract, they asked that we sign each page of the Carfax. No one has ever asked me to sign the Carfax. Before signing it, I ask As I was signing the contract, they asked that we sign each page of the Carfax. No one has ever asked me to sign the Carfax. Before signing it, I asked my son to review it and he noticed a discrepancy of over 30,000 miles. I quickly got up and said I would not be signing the contract. The sales manager became angry, aggressive and very unprofessional. He stated that he was 1000% sure that it was an error and that he would take care of it. I said ok then when? He couldn't say when but he knew that it couldn't be done by tomorrow. So I proceeded to leave. He became angrier and said "that's fine we don't need your business anyway ". I again said there is no way that I'm going to sign a contract with a bad Carfax. The next day and every day for at least a month, sometimes twice a day, I received a call from this dealer. Needless to say I did not answer. Sad that some sales managers are so arrogant to think that we Have to purchase a car from them. There are hundreds of dealers to choose from. I just went to another dealer and purchased a car. Beware of this dealer they lie about the history of their cars through the Carfax and try to slip the Carfax at you with all the paperwork expecting you no to read it. READ the CARFAX! More
