I laid do Walked in the dealership on 1/2/2020 looking to lease a 2019 Highlander. What I found instead was a dishonest "client advisor" (Jason M.). I laid down the specific terms in which we could discuss a deal. He claimed the following idiotic things: MSRP was the lowest price and not negotiable, keep talking about "budget" but clearly stated that we needed to establish the selling price first and then the cap cost, kept talking about adding features trying to muddy the water, then shifted saying they can never go below invoice price (when the dealership's website was currently advertising such deal), caught him fudging the numbers by adding to "$3" lease payments (nickel and diming - a million+ revenue generate business trying to get over on an individual by $200 in GAP insurance...), came back with a printed offer with GAP insurance on it claiming it was required for lease, then had the nerve criticized me for requesting it be taken off ($200) making seem like I shouldn't care about it, then tried to squeeze me on the interest rate claiming the deal was for T1+ credit but the money factor was high at .00235 or 5.64% (0.00235 x 2400). No matter what, if a deal is presented and your credit has not been ran, the dealer should present the deal with what someone 720+ credit score would receive (FYI, never run your credit through dealer unless you're ready to sign). To top it off he continued to lied after I proved I knew the ins and outs about the leasing process. Don't know if this is how the dealership trains their employees (see other reviews to build your own opinion), but you should avoid Jason M. Not an ounce of integrity in that individual. Moved on and negotiated a strong lease deal with a Chevy dealership for a 2020 Chevy Traverse at $294 monthly with $0 due at signing (<1% of MSRP). More

Massive scammers!! If you're looking to be ripped off and subjected to typical con-artist behavior, feel free to check out Plaza Toyota. They ripped off my elderly mothe If you're looking to be ripped off and subjected to typical con-artist behavior, feel free to check out Plaza Toyota. They ripped off my elderly mother and VA-disabled father by leasing them a car well above the sticker price. My parents were entitled to over $5,000 worth of credits due to a Veteran's discount, trading in their perfectly used car, as well as taking advantage of an available rebate offer. Instead of applying that credit to the loan amount which they said they will do, they upped the listed sticker price of the car an additional $5,000 thereby scamming my parents the credit that was rightfully theirs. When confronted about this, they claim the increased price is due to "capitalized cost reduction" What exactly does that term mean? And how exactly is that "capitalized cost REDUCTION" equal to an additional $5,000 increase in price? They prey on the elderly and are top-notch scammers. Adam, the sales manager, and Alex, the finance manager should be ashamed of themselves!!! More

They'll rob ya Mama. These are the kinds of heartless b***s who'll take your grandma's $600 repair job and turn it into a $3,000 whack job. The best part is they'll cl These are the kinds of heartless b***s who'll take your grandma's $600 repair job and turn it into a $3,000 whack job. The best part is they'll claim they did her a favor and were just looking out for her while squeezing every last dime out of the elderly. In this case it was grandma's 15 year-old jalopy she'd been bringing in faithfully for maintenance since she bought it from them. Somehow that $600 brake job ballooned into a zillion "extras" that they bs'd her with. BTW the car is only worth $1500...... So caveat emptor - and keep the old and unwary away from these fleecebags. Look out for the update after we drag them through courts, Attorney General and DMV. As for Toyota Corporate, sure, you got a friend there too........ For what they did to her, she could be riding Ubers for the next 3 years. After we're done, she will! More

If that can’t even be honest with the little things. Contacted on Facebook messenger looking for a price quote to replace a key. They requested my phone number and email in case they couldn’t reach me I Contacted on Facebook messenger looking for a price quote to replace a key. They requested my phone number and email in case they couldn’t reach me I specified that they not contact me other than with the requested price quote. Sure enough, I got a call trying to sell me cars and email within about 15 minutes. They are xxxxxxxx with a horrible sales model like the rest of the car dealers in New York and likely else where. If you are looking to purchase a used car skip these xxxxxxxx and go with the online groups like Carvana and carmax. Much more transparent and much less greasy. More

The Worst Diagnostic Experience Ever So basically I went to Plaza Toyota dealership because I heard a rattling noise by my tires and I wanted to see what was actually the cause of the noi So basically I went to Plaza Toyota dealership because I heard a rattling noise by my tires and I wanted to see what was actually the cause of the noise I was hearing. The diagnostic fee was about $170 dollars with tax included. After sitting there for some time now, the associate (Kelly Ann Jacobs-who was very helpful and understanding) that was there was extremely friendly with the process. I then was told by the mechanic that I had about $3000 dollar damages to my car. For your info, My car is a Toyota Camry 2009 in which I just received the car about roughly 2 years ago. Adding to that I am a female as well. I then instantly cringed up hearing such a crazy price. The mechanic then stated that my caliber was severely damaged, as well as my brakes, needing new rotors, severe oil leak and the need of new tires. The mechanic then stated that it doesn't look good to even drive on it and that we should start this process of fixing It as soon as possible. After denying there services, it took me a few days to process everything and actually find a way to come up with $3000 to fix my car. I then decided to order my parts online since it is fairly cheap to help deduct a large amount from the suggested price by the mechanic. I purchased my brakes on my own which was 2 for $44 at AutoZone and purchased the rotors online. I then searched around Brooklyn for different certified mechanics who I then had complete a diagnostic on my car. It turns out that after stripping my tires, my caliber is perfectly fine in which the mechanic also showed me them. The mechanic did agree that my rear brakes needed to be changed, However the main part which is the caliber has no issues. I then asked the mechanic to check my oil, in which he then look at it and stated that the "severe leak" is quite exaggerating. He then was able to bring me underneath my car to just show me a little crack in the vulva that can be easily fixed and changed. I was extremely pissed after over thinking and actually trying to come up with $3000 and simply get beat in my head. I WILL NEVER GO BACK TO PLAZA TOYOTA. They seem to simply take advantage of you and give tell you outrageous prices as well as making things up. The most worst customer service experience I ever endured. More
