AutoNation Toyota Winter Park

We had a horrible experience with Toyota of Orlando so we decided to give Courtesy Toyota a try. We ended up with a newer giant sales guy by the name of Basil who couldn't have been a nicer guy who was very decided to give Courtesy Toyota a try. We ended up with a newer giant sales guy by the name of Basil who couldn't have been a nicer guy who was very knowledgeable and straight forward. He was the absolute opposite of our Toyota of Orlando sales guy who was pushy and just down right slimey. We found our Camry on the lot, exactly how we wanted it, and he let us continue on a pace we felt comfortable with. We believe we received a fair price and the transition was seamless. I understand a dealerships reputation can vary by the sales person, but this experience was great and I would recommend this store and sales person to my friends and family. More

Let me start off by saying that I have never felt the need to write an online review of any establishment, either positive or negative, for any reason until now. However, I feel so strongly displeased w need to write an online review of any establishment, either positive or negative, for any reason until now. However, I feel so strongly displeased with the consistent incompetence of the service staff of the Courtesy Toyota in Winter Park, that I feel I would be doing others in the area a disservice if I didn't give them fair warning before considering this location. I am not a car expert. That's why I pay the premium price of having my car serviced at the dealership. Due to faulty work in the service department, my 5 year old vehicle experienced complete engine failure. My service rep then began fabricating stories about the details of my maintenance in an attempt to rid himself of liability. I tried my best to work out a fair deal to take a brand new car off the lot, but rather than working with me in a professional manner, I had to wait endlessly in the showroom while they were "crunching numbers' for me and listen to Younes, the sales manager, gloat to a new sales associate about how much he can make in commission. As someone who has experience in professional selling, this is completely unacceptable, especially considering the circumstances. At the advice of my lawyer, I towed my vehicle from Toyota's lot, since it seemed no good faith agreement would be possible. After hearing this, they ripped up my $4K bill for repairs, and replaced my engine at no cost to me. What a generous change of heart, huh? After all this, you are probably curious why I would continue to have my vehicle serviced there. I simply assumed that after a nightmare experience like that with potential legal implications, I would be the last person they would want to treat in less than a professional manner. You would think that when I pulled my car in for service, red flags would go up in the history of the vehicle saying, "whatever you do, don't screw this up again." Wrong. Another misinformed service rep order a "missing part" for my car that mysteriously disappeared at my cost. I was shocked to see my oil change come out to $92 without any warning. After I paid the bill reluctantly, it was explained that the part was missing because it was only designed for cars built before 2003 and that it was not needed at all on my car. I hope my experience is an isolated one. The one shining light in this establishment is the even-tempered, apologetic professionalism of Stuart, the service manager, whose automotive knowledge seems to supersede the combined knowledge on the rest of the staff below him. Best case scenario, if everything goes as well here, be prepared to be inundated by letters, emails, and phone calls asking you to provide feedback afterwards. Today was my last visit to Courtesy Toyota of Winter Park. More

The serving of the car there is a nightmare. Alot of bait and switch. I got rid of my Toyota just so I don't have to deal with the service again. If you're not paying attention, your tires are not rot bait and switch. I got rid of my Toyota just so I don't have to deal with the service again. If you're not paying attention, your tires are not rotated and all of a sudden, they are recommending all sorts of work done on your car, though mine was a year old. Good riddance! Went to David Maus and not only was the experience alot better and the paperwork shorter, I drive a better car with more power for the same money! (oh, and free maintenance) The only recommendation I give this place is RUN! Don't look back!! More

My Toyota Sienna broke down while visiting my son who goes to college at UCF in Orlando. Since we were out-of-towners we felt that having it towed to a Toyota dealer would be safer and have less rip-off goes to college at UCF in Orlando. Since we were out-of-towners we felt that having it towed to a Toyota dealer would be safer and have less rip-off potential. I guess I was wrong. I knew the problem was in the top half of the engine and expected that this would not be a cheap fix but could be fixed. Rob, my service representative, called me and immediately started preparing me for an engine replacement. I asked if they took any part of the engine apart to reach that conclusion and was told that the Mechanic had a gut feeling. He quoted me $4500.00 for a used engine and $8500.00 for a rebuilt engine. I know a little about cars and knew that I was being victimized. I then arranged with an auto transport company to bring my car to my mechanic in South Florida at a cost of $445.00. My mechanic repaired the engine the same day for $400.00 and it runs like a new car. I would hope that the Corporate heads of Toyota reads this review and shuts this dealer down. I love Toyota cars, but this place tarnishes the reputation of Toyota. More

I had gone to the service station of Courtesy on a sunday afternoon to have my alignment fixed, tires rotated and some routine maintenance. They called me up at evening to let me know that the car was ready. afternoon to have my alignment fixed, tires rotated and some routine maintenance. They called me up at evening to let me know that the car was ready. I had to wait around an hour outside the dealership because the car was in fact not ready for me to take out!!! When I finally got the car, the alignment was completely screwed up... more than what was originally wrong. Then I checked that the tires were not rotated (I had a new tire and it had not moved from it's place). I was so frustrated, that I took the car back. Unfortunately, the dealership had closed by then. When I went back next, the dealership denied that they didn't do the service. Only when I did show the proof did they really refund my money back. I've never been to that hell-hole since that experience. More

Bait and switch! They actually admitted that they never had the car advertised for the price advertised, and admitted that they left additional dealer fees out of their ad because knowing all the fees "peo had the car advertised for the price advertised, and admitted that they left additional dealer fees out of their ad because knowing all the fees "people would not come to the dealer." In my opinion, this dealer does not understand Truth in Advertising. More
