I feel Bill Penney Toyota is a breeding ground for racist unprofessional alleged Klansmen. A employee named Brent Jones recently went viral for attacking two minor black American kids.

This dealerships salesman was very misleading and had me provide a security deposit based upon misleading information. deposit was based upon them being able to build me a car to my specifications within 30 provide a security deposit based upon misleading information. deposit was based upon them being able to build me a car to my specifications within 30-60 days. It was later discovered that the sales rep lied as Toyota does not build to specifications, they produce vehicles and ship to dealerships as vehicles are sold and inventory allows and their is no way to guarantee that a vehicle with my specific specifications would be obtainable within 30 to 60 days. Again I paid deposit based on being told that it would take 30-60 days to get the vehicle i wanted built from Toyota and sent to them and I was willing to wait 30-60 days to have the vehicle built for me, which I have text messages proving I was lead to believe a new vehicle was being ordered and was not paid to them for them to try and locate another vehicle from somewhere I would not have agreed to that since this is a high demand vehicle, but I was lied to by the sales rep in order to secure a deposit which is non refundable and i agreed to the non refunable deposit only based upon the fact I was told it was being ordered to my specifications so i wasnt worried it wouldnt be what I wanted so i paid the deposit. Again had I know it was a deposit to try and locate from another dealership I would not have paid this deposit. More

He stated it was so new it was being prepared and would not be available until later in the day at the earliest. He mentioned holding the vehicle and said he could call me when it was ready. I asked him to do that. I went to breakfast but the. Returned to the dealership to talk to Tyson. Told him I would like an out the door price to decide if I wanted to get the vesicle. He got the price and we negotiated with his manager and agreed on a price. The manager even asked if they got the icicle ready if I wanted it. I said yes. I told Tyson I would like to take it home today. I told him that I would obviously want to see the vehicle but if it was the vehicle in the picture I was good to purchase it. He stated it would be a little while before it wells ready. I told Tyson I had something to do but would be back. I asked him to text or call if it was ready before I got back. He texted about two hours later and I told him we would be right there. I immediately texted back and was less than 15 minutes from the dealership He the. Texted back that it was sold. He stated he did not know what happed but someone came in and put down a deposit. I went to the dealership Whe. I got there I spoke with him and a manger. They stated someone put money down so that trumped our original negotiation. I told them I would have put money down but no one told me. I was coming back to get tje vehicle and that Tyson said he would hold it. Tyson never mentioned money and was apologetic. The manager was not interested in making the situation right or doing the right thing. He said it was their business model and stuff like this happens all the time. I would not recommend the dealership. . More

they’ll sell a car to another person out from underneath you after you’ve negotiated and agreed on the price. they said they were cleaning up the car to be ready to purchase, then they called us and said it you after you’ve negotiated and agreed on the price. they said they were cleaning up the car to be ready to purchase, then they called us and said it was ready so we could come and finish the paperwork. 10 minutes later they let us know it was sold. i would NOT RECOMMEND this place. shady business with shady business practices. don’t give them your money, there’s way better car dealers out there. drove 2 hours out of our way for this 0 star service. however, jaden tyson who was selling the car was apologetic and sincere. his manager was not apologetic at all and said that’s just the way you do business. and that “money talks”. this dealership doesn’t care about the people or customer service at all. they just want your money.

This is not typically how I prefer to do business. I’m not a fan of airing ”dirty laundry” but I have never found myself in a situation like this before. I previously provided a great review for Bill I’m not a fan of airing ”dirty laundry” but I have never found myself in a situation like this before. I previously provided a great review for Bill Penney Toyota on Google but recent events are forcing me to update my public thoughts. My salesperson, Ian Sherrill, was and still is great. I have no issues with him or the service he has provided. He is clearly the bright spot in this situation. In summary, I bought a car from Bill Penney Toyota on 11/22/24, due to an issue with the lawn care company breaking the passenger front window in the car and the impending Thanksgiving holiday, replacement glass was delayed and I was not able to take delivery of the vehicle until 12/6/24. I elected to purchase the vehicle as I was assured said vehicle had gone through a rigorous inspection and evaluation and it was the color and equipped the way I would have ordered it from the factory. I had full confidence as this was my 4th vehicle via this brand and each of the previous cars had been relatively trouble free and based on the dealership reviews and my interactions I felt comfortable this was the right move for me. I live 4.5hrs away so it’s not a simple trip across town. I loved the car so it was not an issue and it would give me an opportunity to acclimate to the car on its road trip home. Upon picking up the car on 12/6/2024 and heading back to my home, which again was 4.5hrs away, one hour into the trip the AWD malfunction indicator lit up. I was concerned and messaged Ian my sales guy to let him know that there was a possible problem and to ensure the dealership was aware. I stopped in Birmingham to gas up and when I started the car again the light was off. I thought that it was a simple glitch but 20 mins later the light came back on. The car drove normally otherwise so I proceeded home carefully with no other apparent drivability issues. I made an appointment with the local Genesis/Hyundai dealer to have the car looked at on Tuesday Dec. 10, dropped it off that morning and they contacted me later that afternoon to state they needed more time to fully evaluate the issue because the car was showing three different trouble codes and they were not able to identify the main issue. On the afternoon of Dec. 11, 2024, I was notified that the car needs a transfer case replacement. I was flabbergasted as I only drove the car from the dealer to my home since taking possession and in all honesty was beyond heated that I will now have to spend money on MAJOR repairs to a vehicle with only 43,000 miles that I was informed was not only fully inspected and deemed to be fully road worthy but defect free. On 12/12/2024I picked up the car from the local Genesis/Hyundai dealer and was presented a repair estimate of $6.469.80 for a car on which I have not yet made the first monthly payment and that I’m not able to safely or confidently operate as it sits. I am fortunate that nothing adverse happened from a safety perspective on the return trip from Huntsville to my home on 12/6/2024. I have reached out to leadership at Bill Penney Toyota for assistance in resolving this situation amicably for all parties involved but as of yet I have had no interaction, contact, or follow up. I’m not an unrealistic person and I’m aware that compromise is usually necessary to resolve conflict but now is the time for action and not silence. Bill Penney Toyota, I’m waiting. More
