Mrs. Hagedoorn, 'I've read your feedback and am aware of your situation. My goal is to assist in making you a satisfied customer. But Before I go into detail on what I know of your issue, it needs to be said that you stating what I've said is completely not true. I have never spoken to, messaged or emailed you. To state that I said "you should have known better" or anything for that matter is not only untrue but slanderous as well. I do know you purchased an extended warranty for your Jeep from us. I also know that you have been in contact on multiple times with members of my staff and management team as well as Toyota. I do understand and you've stated that Sam said you could bring your car anywhere. If you provide me the name of the person who spoke with the warranty company before doing the repairs and what was covered and authorized I would be happy to assist in getting that facility reimbursed so we together can figure out why a claim was denied after it was authorized. You mentioned that you are a former dealer. So that being said it is safe to feel that you and Mr Hagedoorn have a basic working knowledge of warranty claims and service issues. I have never heard of a Service Department, Service Manager or Technician that would allow a wrench to be turned on a vehicle without contacting the warranty company to see what is covered under the terms of the warranty and what they would be reimbursed for and at what rate since they need to know upfront how they are going to be compensated. It does not get any more basic than that. You say there is a bill from the repair facility and my question would be to them is how do they know what the warranty company would cover if they called before they did the work? This part is extremely confusing to me. If you need to speak with me further about this my # is 201-791-3800 ext 203 Rob D GM I

Glen Toyota responded

I understand, But just because items are listed as covered doesn't define anything. At what time did a representative call to see what would be reimbursed and if the warranty was in effect.?That is my contention and my question. As to what Sam said, I have never had such an issue with him nor any my reps so its uncharted territory in regards to him allegedly misrepresenting something. I am my no means disputing any of that because obviously I was not present in his office. Can you send me the invoice from the repair shop for examination? I will look at any paperwork you have for consideration. On a side note, what is the issue or reason you would elect to not come to the dealership for repairs? Especially since the vehicle address of record is Hawthorne. Just curious, thanks. Regards Rob D

Glen Toyota responded

Mrs. Hagedoorn, There is no admission of anything. As for condescending, that's your interpretation I am just stating facts as I see them.. I will again repeat that I have a goal to make you satisfied. I as a dealer representative will not at the same time be bullied or held hostage with misrepresentations in which you use my name stating I said things that I never said to you and hide under aliases in reviews like this or the one on Yelp that says your from Paterson. I do however understand how the consumer in this case you may feel or react and that certainly is your prerogative. I also know if I felt I was lied to or felt slighted how I would react and it would be swift. I also spoke with John and it is my understanding that he said or meant to say there was no need to speak to me because my answer would have been similar or the same. There is never a refusal to speak with any customer on my part and I apologize that you feel that was how I was presented to you. My email is rdaland@glentoyota.com so when you have the documents or copies we spoke of forward them to me there. Thank you for your feedback, Rob D GM

Disgusted responded

If you never said those things then I suggest you speak with John Kraiza as he is the one who stated that you did and that you would not speak to me privately. What I have written is factual. I not only asked to speak with you, I left a message on your voicemail. We told Sam that a used warranty through Jeep said you needed to go to a dealer. Sam told us numerous times and without a doubt that Toyota was different. Why would we, Jeep people, question a Toyota person?? Especially after he insisted he was right. The shocks were shot and I told my husband I almost bounced into another car after hitting a bump on 287. He checked immediately and they were replaced so I could get to work. Why would he confirm they would be covered when the paperwork said shocks were covered and Sam said any mechanic could do the work? I stand by my complaint as I have a list of all of the times I went in to speak about this, who I spoke to and what I was told. 3 times they told me they couldn't reimburse what I paid for the warranty, 4 times I told them I didn't want them to. All I wanted was the claim for the shocks paid and I would have to suck it up that I had to go up a dealer, which was specifically stated that I didnt want that.

Disgusted responded

I will get the bill to you tomorrow. I will also send you the pages of who I talked to when and what i was told if you sent it. The reason we do not want dealers to work on our cars is since we were in business for over 90 years, we did business with other dealers and customers who went to other dealers and experienced a lot of untrustworthy service people. For 3 generations our dealership was built on Christian values and honesty was our most important. We had a 100% satisfaction rate and seeing how others were treated elsewhere made us very angry and strive harder not to be that way. The only reason we would use a dealer would be for recalls and even that is done through one of our old mechanics. My husband is very particular when it comes to his automobiles. This was explained to Sam when he first brought up the warranty. I really did not want to go public with this issue. I really tried to get this taken care of quietly, but I felt very ignored and patronized by those I spoke with. I felt that if I was treated so badly as an ex dealer who you would think they would want to make sure was treated right, what was happening to others? To say a customer should have known better than your own employee, to me was very condescending and ultimately an admission that nobody cared that he lied. I will get back to you as soon as they s er nd me a copy of the bill. I believe they still have the shocks also, if you want to see them.
