Service call gone wrong I have purchased 5 new Toyotas from this dealership dating back to 1983 and have had all of them serviced at the dealership. Today was very disappoin I have purchased 5 new Toyotas from this dealership dating back to 1983 and have had all of them serviced at the dealership. Today was very disappointing. A 20,000 mile service resulted in a debacle. The service person told me that I had a nail in my tire, that the tire could not be repaired and I needed a new tire ($250.00). I told him to put the spare on. He said the spare wasn't designed for regular use. I asked if the spare was standard size. He said that the tread was different and would not stand prolonged usage. I insisted on the spare being used. Upon leaving the dealership, I went to a tire shop where I've done business for many years to have them look at the tire for possible repair. The service man at the tire shop removed a "tack" - less than 1/2" long from the tire tread and tested the tire for leaks. There were none. He informed me that the spare was a brand new full sized tire. I returned to the dealer, showed them the "tack" and requested that the supposedly ruined tire be put back on. After some wait, the service person came to have me look at the tire in question in order to impress upon me the fact that it was indeed punctured. I trekked to another building with him where the technicians had drawn a circle on the tire signifying the puncture site. I asked, "Are you telling me that this tire is bad?" The answer, "No, it's not damaged." I told them to put the tire back on. I'm an older woman and feel that this experience exploited my gender and my age. More

I received a safety recall notice from Toyota that said our 2004 Corolla needed to have the front door glass bolts replaced. I called up Sloane Toyota at Glenside on a Wednesday and the guy who answered th our 2004 Corolla needed to have the front door glass bolts replaced. I called up Sloane Toyota at Glenside on a Wednesday and the guy who answered the phone said that they didn't have any more available times for this week. I asked if there wasn't any way to get it done ASAP, since (and I quote from the notice) "the door glass may separate from the window regulator, bind and shatter during operation of the power windows, causing driver distraction and/or injury." He told me it's nothing serious. Huh? Is Sloane willing to guarantee that? If it's nothing serious, why did Toyota send me a safety recall notice? Finally, he told me that I could drop off my car in the morning and pick it up in the evening. Thanks, how am I supposed to get anywhere with my only car stuck in the shop all day? I guess everyone at Sloane has an extra car lying around. This kind of attitude is nothing new. Every time I've called Sloane Toyota or gone to get my car serviced, they made me feel as if I was imposing on them, like they were doing me a favor by servicing my car. Customer service is important, but apparently not to Sloane Toyota. I will never deal with them again, and I'll be sure to let everyone I know not to go to them to buy a car. Toyota's a good car company, in my opinion, and there are lots of different dealerships you can choose from. Do some research and choose one with better service. More
