Parts Price Gouching at Cavender San Antonio Toyota owners beware! Cavender Toyota charges exactly 15% more for their factory Toyota parts than other area Toyota dealers. Red McCombs San Antonio Toyota owners beware! Cavender Toyota charges exactly 15% more for their factory Toyota parts than other area Toyota dealers. Red McCombs and Universal Toyota both wanted $102.50 for an ignition coil that fits an '06 Avalon - factory parts. Cavender charged $117.88. This same escalation applied to spark plus and rear brakes. To make matters worse, they also spent a lot of time trying to "upsell" services that you do not need. What people don't know about dealership service depts. is the service writers - known as asst. service mgrs. at Toyota dealerships - the service mgr and the GM all get a cut of the service bill. The more they sell - the more they make. The real tragedy is in many cases, the work you paid for was never done or done improperly to begin with. Also - ignore Cavenders customer service rep who like to chimes in to these negative reviews with her "we are so sorry you are not happy......". Anyone who believes her nonsense is too stupid to be alive. More
Cavender Toyota was so highly recommended that I drove from North Austin to San Antonio to buy a new Tacoma pickup. Spencer Herrera is the ultimate professional, thoroughly knowledgeable about the truck, from North Austin to San Antonio to buy a new Tacoma pickup. Spencer Herrera is the ultimate professional, thoroughly knowledgeable about the truck, accommodating with my questions, never any pressure, and met my offer. I was fortunate to work with Spencer. I am 70-years old and had never bought a vehicle on my own, Spencer made the event comfortable and inspired trust. I fully recommend the dealership and Spencer Herrera. Malo Payne in finance further made the transaction comfortable and trustworthy. Another Cavender asset. More
Dust on the brakes operation Be careful about the service department. They are a "dust on the brakes" operation. You know what I mean. If they find dust on the brakes they recomm Be careful about the service department. They are a "dust on the brakes" operation. You know what I mean. If they find dust on the brakes they recommend a brake job. In this case we brought in my 82 year old Mother's Corolla for a starter problem. Some guy named "Shawn" was our contact. To his credit, he recommended the car go back to the 3rd party mechanic to properly fix the starter problem. However, he called my Mother and recommended $800 of maintenance including "Carbon cleaning" the engine as well as a oil leak in the gasket that he claimed was draining into the spark plug (although there was never any evidence of smoke which oil in the spark plug and piston chamber would cause). We feel he took advantage of an older lady. We didn't want maintenance done, just an examination of the starter. More
Mike Gonzalez gave my wife a great deal w/o wasting her time. He and other members of the staff went out of their way to show her all of the vehicles features. Cavender was the 4th dealer we went to. Our j time. He and other members of the staff went out of their way to show her all of the vehicles features. Cavender was the 4th dealer we went to. Our journey started at Toyota of Boerne which turned out to be a train wreck experience. Do not be fooled by their opulent environment. Beneath all of that is your classic slime ball dealership. I can't say much more than that for the other 2 dealerships we visited - Universal Toyota and Red McCombs Toyota. Both wasted our time and could not begin to touch Cavenders drive out price. More
When my husband and I walked in it was very busy. Robert stopped to help us, asked us what we were looking for and went to go find some cars that matched out needs. He was very knowledgeable and didn't try stopped to help us, asked us what we were looking for and went to go find some cars that matched out needs. He was very knowledgeable and didn't try to rush us or sell us something we really didn't want. Car shopping is literally the worst experience for me. I hate pushy salesman who try to rush you into making a decision after you looked at a car for five minutes. Robert was very patient and answered our questions with confidence. When it came to finalizing he provided us with different options and was able to get us a really nice deal. We will definitely be coming back here. Everyone is so laid back, you can tell they like their job and they actually care about getting you in the car you love as well as one you can afford. More
I didn't know what kind of vehicle I wanted when we were searching for our new vehicle. We had been to several care dealerships before we stopped at Cavender. When we stopped by Cavender, we were pro were searching for our new vehicle. We had been to several care dealerships before we stopped at Cavender. When we stopped by Cavender, we were promptly greeted and asked what we were looking for. As Christina narrowed our search based on our wants/needs we decided on the Corolla S Plus. Christina was VERY knowledgable about the cars Toyota had to offer and was very patient as I saw model after model and asked to see each one. She answered all of our questions right away and highlighted the new features of the cars. When we decided on the Corolla, she searched the car lot for the one that had the features we wanted but none of the "extras" that we didn't AND in the exact color we wanted. I never felt pressured and I was a GREAT experience! We would definitely recommend Toyota Cavendar! More
I had read great reviews about Spencer! Test drove 3 cars and picked the 2014 Corolla. Spencer did not pressure me and he ultimately worked with me to get me a good price on the car. He was very knowledgeabl and picked the 2014 Corolla. Spencer did not pressure me and he ultimately worked with me to get me a good price on the car. He was very knowledgeable, friendly and easy to talk to. Melissa over in finance was awesome as well. I love my new car and glad I was able to walk out the door with it! I highly recommend Spencer - you will not be dissappointed! :) More
We had heard very good things about Cavender from other people, which is why we ultimately decided to take our business there. We were not disappointed. Spencer was very courteous, knowledgeable, and fri people, which is why we ultimately decided to take our business there. We were not disappointed. Spencer was very courteous, knowledgeable, and friendly. We did not feel at all pressured into buying our vehicle and were given very aggressive pricing and financing options. Melissa was very helpful explaining all the financing and warranty plans. Every employee we encountered was friendly and the atmosphere was very relaxed. More
They suck!!!!!! They let me drive of the lot in a 2012 Toyota n 3 wks pass by n start haselling me that they want their car back.. it the worst expirience ive ever had with a dealership. They dont know h Toyota n 3 wks pass by n start haselling me that they want their car back.. it the worst expirience ive ever had with a dealership. They dont know how to do business right and keep a customer happy and content. A big dealership like cavender should have more experience and caring salespeople behind their good name.in my opinion they suck at what they do. More
I purchased my first Toyota Highlander in 2002. At that time the salesperson happened to be Spencer Herrera. I can not say enough great things about Spencer. He is courteous & respectful & very knowledge time the salesperson happened to be Spencer Herrera. I can not say enough great things about Spencer. He is courteous & respectful & very knowledgeable about Toyotas. It's easy to see that he believes in the Toyota company. I drove my Highlander for over 11 years & it was finally time to trade it in due to high mileage & needing some repairs too pricey to put into a vehicle that old. I had never forgotten the great experience I'd had, so I asked for Spencer the day I went to shop for a new-to-me, used Highlander. It was his day off & Ed Smith helped me that day. After looking at a few Highlanders as well as a Venza, I made arrangements to return the following day to meet with Spencer. My final decision was to buy a new 2013 Highlander, because the pricing was so good compared to a used one. This is our family's third Toyota with Cavender & we will continue to shop with them in the future. The service department is also a pleasant experience. More
