Let me start by saying I have personally been in the auto business and I am currently a General Manager of a dealership so I have seen and dealt with many situations. With that being said I do understand how business and I am currently a General Manager of a dealership so I have seen and dealt with many situations. With that being said I do understand how this may effect a business. My son took his vehicle to Infinity Sarasota to check an issue he was having with his steering seems there was no power steering. After dropping the vehicle off the service advisor called and told him he needed front speed sensors left and right which the question was then asked is this going to fix the car and will I have this problem in the future Mr Guy said yes this will fix it and you will not have this issue again. Well in the write up I post you will see this was misdiagnosed from the beginning! First off the vehicle has altered suspension and the sensors have been unplugged if it was diagnosed correctly or even put in the air on the lift any mechanic would have noticed this. So obviously there is a problem not related to those sensors but Mr Guy still said those would have to be paid for. Well in this instance anybody would be highly upset number 1 what you told me was going to fix the problem did not and second off there will be a charge for an issue that wasn't fixed. It was stated so what is the problem and was told by Mr Guy we will get it back in the shop in the morning. Now that he has been without a vehicle for over 4 days he isn't complaining about that at all. So the service advisor then wrote in the RO customer was "verbally abusive". No what it is, is poor customer service and a misdiagnosis on your part is more like it. Also when we have to call for an update after having the vehicle this is communication 101. You should never treat a customer no matter age or race or career wise in this manner. So after my other son went and spoke with Mr guy for an update they old sensors where brought up but yet never provided to look at for failure on "rubbing on the tire" instead they put the vehicle supposedly back together in the state it was in when brought in and said we are not going to diagnose or work on the car. I would hope the Service Manager being in customer service would have taken a look at this situation and said this is not right we take our vehicles to dealerships because this is where the manufacturer recommends. So before you bring your vehicle into this establishment be aware. This is "bad business" and this is what makes all dealerships look bad!!! It would not let me upload image of service RO but you can look on google I will be posting it there as well. Do not reach out to me and do not respond there is no need this is for your future consumers. More

The Good : The salesman came in on his day off, without knowing beforehand that I was coming, and stayed late, even after I broke down on the interstate. I really appreciated that. The Bad : Pre owned vehi knowing beforehand that I was coming, and stayed late, even after I broke down on the interstate. I really appreciated that. The Bad : Pre owned vehicle was described by same salesman as "pristine", " a rare piece". , I put way too much stock in his description of the vehicle...my fault. There was an adequate number of pics of the vehicle posted on the dealerships' website, including one that showed a matching set of dents across the back of the truck, on each side of the back window. The dents were easy to miss, among the 58? pics, but the first thing I saw, when we walked up to the truck, upon arriving at the dealership. When the Salesman came out to greet us, I pointed to the dents, and said "what's this" ? He gave us the impression that one of the employees? must have done it, and seemed like he was surprised, and upset about it. When I took the truck for a test drive, I immediately asked someone riding with me to access the website, and see if there were any pics of the dents. There was a pic, showing the dents. So, does that mean that the salesman knew of them, but didn't tell me about them, when I specifically asked him what was wrong with the truck, or does it mean that somebody inserted the pics of the damage, after I got there, or.........who really knows ?? But how, can a Salesman that knows enough about a truck, to call it "pristine", or "a rare piece", not know enough about it, to make sure I was aware of the dents, before my driving 200 miles, to buy the truck. Couple this with a cracked window, worn windshield wipers, and a radio that works intermittently, (worked on the test drive) and it was not the type of buying experience that I'd like to repeat. That being said, the dealership did cover the cost of the new wiper blades, and some other small item, by way of a slight price reduction on the truck, when the 2nd set of contract paperwork was sent to me, to sign.Regarding the radio, I was told by the salesman to take the truck to the Toyota dealership, to see what the issue was with it, and after spending $188 for diagnostics, was told that the radio was bad, and a new one was $1100+ installation. As if that wasn't bad enough, they said that the radios were at least a couple months out, due to Covid based supply chain shortages. I think that the dealership should cover the $188, and the cost of the new radio. Also, I've asked twice, to speak to the former owner of the truck, ( a one owner truck) about the trucks' history, including how the dents got there, and still don't have the contact info for him. I'm disappointed. I, like everyone else that's bought a truck lately, paid a premium for this truck, and would just have liked for it to have been "pristine", and "a rare piece", as it was advertised. I've been in Sales, and Management, for most of my adult life, and have made mistakes in both........everybody does, but I've always made a situation right, and treated people the way the Golden Rule says to, even if it means that there's no profit in the deal, for me, or my company. Maybe I'm asking too much, but, as a consumer, I expect to be treated fairly, on everything I buy, without feeling like I have to fight for that. So, to summarize, my Salesman is a likable guy, the dealership is very nice, and I bought a pre owned truck, with 76,000 miles on it. This Salesman has good reviews, on sales of new vehicles. This is the only experience that I've had with them. I'd like to say that I'd give them a chance to sell us our next vehicle, but with the way that this transaction has gone, I could not, at least for the time being, commit to that. Thank you More
