While I'm aware of the inherent risks of purchasing a used car (I worked in the car business for 10 years), I purchased it from a dealership instead of private party or an auction, hoping that the car would have been checked over thoroughly before being put on their lot. I was wrong. Within days the check engine light came on. Two weeks later, it wouldn't even start. It needed a new fuel pump switch. Now a month after that and the check engine light comes back on as well as the oil change light. Within 60 days and less than 500 miles that I've put on the minivan (most of those miles have been taking it back to them because I live over an hour away) it has needed a fuel pump switch, oil change and now a catalytic converter, which they want to charge me at least $1000 for. They obviously did NOTHING to this car before sticking it on their lot and taking my money. Dealerships like this give all the others a bad name. I gave them plenty of opportunities to fix this before writing this review. My husband spoke to everyone from the sales managers to service directors. My advice, don't buy anything here, don't service your car here. Their customer service and all around moral decency is atrocious. More

Very poor service I got pissed off of waiting, been here 9am and advisor Joseph told me till 11to 12 noon, when I check my car it’s still parked undone, The advisor is I got pissed off of waiting, been here 9am and advisor Joseph told me till 11to 12 noon, when I check my car it’s still parked undone, The advisor is not there and the other check and help me find out what’s going on. it’s 1:50 pm now and now they told me to wait for 45 mins more. Please don’t tell times which is so far from the truth and updates your customer. More

Poor customer service I had an appointment for oil change service at 11:30am. I got there at 11:20 and was accepted as scheduled. The car was promised to be ready by 1:30pm I had an appointment for oil change service at 11:30am. I got there at 11:20 and was accepted as scheduled. The car was promised to be ready by 1:30pm. At 1:30pm the car was not ready. To my question I was toled that the mechanic is working on it. At 2:30 I asked again and was told that they haven’t started working on the car. I asked to speak to the manager but he was not available. At that point I could not wait anymore and had to take the car unserviced after waiting over 3 hours for nothing. Infortunately I had to go to Shel and they did it without appointment and got the car serviced and well washed I 30 minutes. More

Poor Service I bought my car here in March of this year and returned two months later because the lock on my driver door stopped working. They fixed this for me un I bought my car here in March of this year and returned two months later because the lock on my driver door stopped working. They fixed this for me under warranty. I noticed when I picked my car later that afternoon that, the window tint in the front corner had been scratched, I know from them removing the window. I notified my service provider immediately, and he without question said they would get that taken care of (which is already shady to me). However, I would have to wait an entire month to be scheduled with the tint provider. I patiently waited until my scheduled date. I brought my car in, taking additional time off work to do so. I was informed no loaner car would be made available to me because this was a 'good will' fix and that they probably did not even cause the damage to my window. I asked to speak with the manager, and he told me the same thing. "The probability that they scratched your tint isn't likely, but since you bought the car here, I am doing this out of goodwill, we don't provide loaner cars to anyone here. I can only offer you a discounted rate if you would like to rent a car. No car dealerships give out loaner cars unless they're luxury, like Lexus or Mercedes, but you're obviously paying more for their cars..." is what he told me. He made me feel like he was doing me a favor. I felt talked down to, mistreated, and not a priority as a woman and as a customer. I felt discriminated against as an Asian woman asking for a request. There was no explanation of anything. I was nothing but cordial and just wanted a car for a few hours to get to work and back. The shuttle that I took home last time dropped off three other people and me last, even though I was probably the closest, for a commute that took almost an hour. I am extremely unhappy with service here and will be taking my service elsewhere from now on. More

Wait time I addressed my concern with the 2 1/2-3 hour wait time for a scheduled check up for my car and have taken it twice, but neither time was I willing to I addressed my concern with the 2 1/2-3 hour wait time for a scheduled check up for my car and have taken it twice, but neither time was I willing to wait the time they considered normal. It would have helped if they had told me on the phone that it would be so long and I could have made other plans. When I spoke to the service manager, Manny Cavazos, he seemed to think that poor service and a long wait time is normal. Nothing will improve with this normalization of what is not good customer service. Manny scoffed at my saying that scheduling a service that I could not wait 3 hours for ruined half of my day. I do not appreciate his condescending attitude. Fortunately, there are plenty of other Toyota dealerships in the San Diego area. I would rather drive for a longer distance than put up with this type of service. The employees with whom I dealt, other than the manager, were very polite. The way the cars are scheduled is very disorganized. Would you wait in a doctors' office for 3 hours? More
