The service dept was very busy, but everyone was still efficient and friendly, I was offered a ride home while I waited though it was technically off hours. I am so happy this service dept is close by, I will definitely come back next time. Thank you, Cara! More

He gave great professional adv Hector Alvarez, Service Consultant, did an excellent job explaining the results of my annual New York State inspection. He gave great professional advice about what needed to be serviced immediately and what other routine maintenance items were coming up. This will allow me to plan and schedule future work. I am very busy and often forget these things. Thanks, Hector! Westchester Toyota does top-notch work and is very thorough. My 2010 Toyota Corolla runs beautifully, and I have peace of mind. The staff is very courteous and the atmosphere is friendly. More

Damaged My Car and Refuse To Make It Right UPDATE: As of Jan 15 2015 this matter has been resolved to my satisfaction. However I am still leaving the rating at 1 star based on the fact that th UPDATE: As of Jan 15 2015 this matter has been resolved to my satisfaction. However I am still leaving the rating at 1 star based on the fact that this incident should have never happened in the first place and the amount of time it took to resolve it. The only reason I am giving them one star is because DealerRater does not allow you to give ZERO, which is what they deserve. On Oct. 16, 2014 I brought my 2014 Toyota Yaris to Westchester Toyota for its 5,000 mile service. After the service was completed and my car was returned to me I discovered that "Westchester Toyota" license plate frames had been installed on my car without my permission. I was never consulted if I desired to have the frames installed, it was simply done without asking. I returned to my Service Consultant, Sophia Suarez, asked to have the frames removed and asked to speak to the Service Manager (Frantz Casimir). She returned to me and said the he would be out shortly, however he never appeared. A staff member did come and take the car back to the shop and removed the frames. Unfortunately my vehicle's bumper was damaged and mounting hardware for the license plates was lost and damaged as a result of the several times the plates were removed and reinstalled. Prior to the unauthorized actions of Westchester Toyota the license plates were installed sandwiched between two 1/4" nylon washers per hole and attached using M6-1.00X16 stainless steel button head internal hex drive cap screws. My car was returned to me with several nylon washers missing and with damage to the internal hex drive of the cap screws. I am a diesel mechanic with over 30 years experience in the marine industry. In my professional opinion this damage was most likely caused by the use of an improper sized drive bit used in a cordless drill with too high a torque setting while removing / installing the screws. MOST SIGNIFICANTLY one of the mounting holes for the front license plate was also stripped during this process. Again this is indicative of the use of a power driver with a high torque setting and is a perfect example of why power tools should never be used on plastic. I repaired these items myself. The stripped hole in the front bumper was filled with plastic epoxy, drilled and tapped. New mounting screws and washers were purchased and the license plates were reinstalled in the original manner. All of this was done on my time and with my money. I then sent Westchester Toyota an itemized bill for my time and materials. I received a nonsensical email from a Istrha Santana in response claiming that their blatant attempt at free advertising was actually an honest mistake because the "Westchester Toyota Service Department frequently receives customer request to install the license frame as we are the #1 dealer in the district regarding customer satisfaction". They also stated "As far as your request for reimbursement if you would be so kind to produce an invoice itemizing the parts and labor even though Westchester Toyota never authorized the work, but for good P.R. we will take it in to consideration regarding your next service". I once again emailed Ms. Santana, again providing the invoice which I had already provided, and explained that the offer to "take it in to consideration regarding your next service" was unacceptable as my next 3 services are already covered for free under Toyota Care. I did not receive a response. There has been no communication from Westchester Toyota since. So in short they installed their license frames without my permission. They damaged my front bumper and lost and damaged my mounting hardware while doing this. When confronted with these facts the Service Manager hid in his office and would not come out to speak with me. I repaired the damages caused by them and am seeking restitution. After contacting them I received an email that did not address the issues I raised. They have not responded to further emails. AVOID WESTCHESTER TOYOTA, they are dishonorable people. More

He e I brought my 2013 Prius C in for its 10,000-mile maintenance. Alexander Liriano took care of me; he was courteous, professional, and efficient. He explained precisely the work that was to be done; called me when the car was ready; offered to renew the inspection/registration on the car. I was done in 90 minutes -- a most pleasant experience.

Friendly, Fast and Experienced I brought my car in for a tune up and to fix a problem with a loose heat shield at the rear of the car. they had me in and out of the shop in no time I brought my car in for a tune up and to fix a problem with a loose heat shield at the rear of the car. they had me in and out of the shop in no time and everything was great. i could actually feel that my A/C was working better as soon as i turned it on! (they had found that my filter was long overdue to be replaced. they replaced the filter and flushed out the system to get any dirt and debris out of it). I highly recommend Westchester Toyota for theit fast and friendly service. More
I don't know why I've waited so long to let people know about this, I'm sorry to anybody else who has been cheated by this place. This has happened before, and had I known I wouldn't have gone people know about this, I'm sorry to anybody else who has been cheated by this place. This has happened before, and had I known I wouldn't have gone there, my mom forgot to tell me not to take the car there. The guy I met with is a huge schemer, and aside from extending when the car would be ready more than once (including just now, the fourth time in under a week), he completely lied about needing various upgrades. When I responded to his recommended tire, oil and timing belt (among others) change by explaining they had been replaced only a few weeks earlier, he completely shut down, knowing he had been caught in his lie, and sheepishly made a comment about how 'the stickers weren't there', something my normal mechanic (who had fixed that issue himself) disputed as well. My mom called when she got back to find out why her car wasn't ready, and he picked up and when she asked for him and said who she was, he said 'oh he's out to lunch', but my mom recognized his voice, it was definitely him-- he screened us. In the initial report, he straight up added details about things that needed work that I did not say myself. I know I could not have said them because aside from the fact that the problems didn't exist, the car I brought this time was my moms and I wasn't totally sure myself so I couldn't have said anything... The man was going to charge thousands upon thousands of dollars to 'repair' random parts of the car that I luckily know were not broken. I can't say for sure that it was Hector specifically because I know neither what goes on in the back, nor the general inner workings of this place, but all I can say is never use/work/get involved with Toyota Services in Yonkers or possibly more specifically Hector Alvarez, they are dishonest and slick.
