I gave this dealer a second chance. I had such a great experience purchasing the vehicle, but their service department technicians are lousy. Went in with a gas gauge issue for the seco I had such a great experience purchasing the vehicle, but their service department technicians are lousy. Went in with a gas gauge issue for the second time. Their response is that I need to read the manual. They felt strongly about it enough, they wrote it in the notes and cited specific page numbers to reference. We’re sorry, we know you didn’t see the gas light warning light come on and have photos, but it worked for us. When your car is down to 10 miles of gas it will come on, not 13 miles as you said. Read the manual. It took them two days with appointment to drain the gas tank, supposedly, and then drive the vehicle with the working gas light on. Apparently I have to get as low as 10 miles range and then have no clue what I have left after that. Clearly a defect, and brushing me off. I’m sure they told Toyota there was no problem, even though online there many similar cases of this issue. Never coming back here again, this was their last chance. If you want to buy a car, they are excellent!, but their service dept will waste your time. I added a photo, no gas light is on. They said it works, maybe but you have to drive the car until you have no clue how much gas you have left. The range is still not accurate. More
Friendly Staff, Terrible Process, No Accountability. The system used by the service department to book appointments apparently does not actually work, besides blocking a time slot with the department. Ad The system used by the service department to book appointments apparently does not actually work, besides blocking a time slot with the department. Add any notes or details about additional service, maintenance, or other issues you'd like to be looked at, and the service team doesn't receive it. Says their system has always been broken and they never see the details of a booked appointment. Lots of wasted time, lots of confusion and lack of answers. This is just one of many bad experiences here. When I submitted a fair and detailed review via the Toyota service survey, I got a call back from a service rep who said he was going to be fired because of my poor review, and I needed to send a note to his boss to save his job. When I've asked if there's someone in management that I can speak with about my experience, even pointing out that it has nothing to do with the individual service reps, everyone gets terrified and says they don't know how I'd go about doing that. I made no comment about any individual's poor service, but rather poor process and accountability, and it seems to fall on deaf ears and become the fault of the individual employees. Management seems to not care, despite multiple calls to discuss my experience. More
Awful All Around Absolutely abhorrent service. We brought a brand new 2019 Toyota Prius, less than a month old. The tire had blown while driving on the highway at only Absolutely abhorrent service. We brought a brand new 2019 Toyota Prius, less than a month old. The tire had blown while driving on the highway at only 50 mph (traffic). They refused to honor the warranty. We left the car anyways because, it’s not really an “optional” repair, planning to pay and fight the charge later. They gave us an estimated wait time of an hour and thirty minutes. Two hours later we call for an update, surprise they don’t even have the part necessary. So we call another dealership who does have the part, and they give us a significantly lower quote than this dealership had. When we returned to have the car towed to the other dealership the staff was rude, belligerent and downright hateful. I would never return and I strongly recommend going to a Culver City or marina dealership. They are much more competent and customer service oriented. More
worst service ever Told me there was mold in my car when there was not. Tried to make me call my insurance for the expenses. Left my car a complete disaster. All interio Told me there was mold in my car when there was not. Tried to make me call my insurance for the expenses. Left my car a complete disaster. All interior ripped out and left on my seats when I picked my car back up. Wires were hanging out and it was a disaster. Awful. More
