Toyota Universe

These guys sold me a car which was dripping gasoline onto the motor. I only found out when I took it to a mechanic to find out about the weird smell and have the AC recharged. When I tried to call them, th the motor. I only found out when I took it to a mechanic to find out about the weird smell and have the AC recharged. When I tried to call them, they told me that since I didn’t fix this emergency condition with them and the car was “as-is”, they wouldn’t compensate me in any way. The mechanic told me that my wife and I could have died; apparently, the only reason I discovered the problem was because it was hot outside. Don’t buy anything from these guys, it could be the last thing you ever do! More

Bought 2 cars an 2011 camry and a 2010 rav4 both times everyone was as pleasent and professional as can be. Both times they let us take test drives and worked with us in getting the car that we wanted the everyone was as pleasent and professional as can be. Both times they let us take test drives and worked with us in getting the car that we wanted they never tried topush us to less of a car. the finance dept was extremely helpful in getting us the lowest rate possible for some with marginal credit this was a big plus. They also seem to bend over backwards to make sure you are happy More

Easily the worst experience I have had at a car dealer. I know they all play games, but these guys were horrible. First, when calling them on the phone, they claimed they would honor the price I got on th I know they all play games, but these guys were horrible. First, when calling them on the phone, they claimed they would honor the price I got on the internet (which was a great price, well below invoice). I was buying a new Tundra. They claimed they didn't have the exact options I wanted, but they would locate a similarly equipped vehicle. They claimed they had to search a 400 mile radius to find the a similarly equipped truck to what i was requesting. Yes, they honored the internet price, but tried to gouge me on my trade-in, and overcharge for dealer installed options. Even so, the bottom line price was still good, so I gave them a $1000 deposit that they called a locate fee. The next week, they called and told me my truck was in and it was ready for me to come pick it up. I showed up first thing in the morning, went out to see the truck and it had a big dent in the door. They claimed it didn't come in like that...whatever. I was still going to accept the truck once they replaced the door. After way too many "I'll be right backs" and disappearing for 10-15 minutes at a time, the business office finally got to me and we started the signing. WE were just about done and I was extremely frustrated with the entire drawn out process, then they told me that they made a $1000 mistake on the rebate being offered by Toyota and the vehicle was going to cost me $1000 more. They claimed that my salesman was new and that was the reason for the mistake...well he was new, but he didn't write the contract, it was written by the manager, Max, a big time BS artist and stereotypical asshole salesman. Now, I spent 3 hours the first time there, and this time 3 1/2 hours. They were counting on the fact that I was so worn down by their tactics that I would just accept the deal. No way. I must have heard 6 or 7 times about having to follow their protocol, well their protocol, their business model, is to keep dragging out the process and wear their customers down to the point where they just want to get it over with and they sign. Everything about these guys was shady.... I was a cash buyer and they kept trying to sell me on a payment Charging me for a credit check even though I wasn't applying for credit Not standing by their own contract Overcharging for dealer-installed options Trying the hard sell on an inflated-cost extended warranty Low-balling me on my trade-in value I walked out and told them to keep their truck. Later that day, I walked into Prestige Toyota in Ramsey, and in less than 2 hours drove away in a nicer-equipped truck, for about the same money, but dealt with a different mentality of a dealership. Prestige was great. They treated me like a customer should be treated and the whole process was smooth, transparent, and on the level. By the way, Prestige had 3 similarly equipped trucks to what i needed on their lot. So much for the 400 mile search that the crooks in Little Falls did for me. I fully understand that car dealers are in business to make money, but these 2 dealerships demonstrated 2 different philosophies of how to go about it. If you want to be lied to and manipulated and played for a fool, then by all means go to Toyota Universe. On the other hand, if you are looking for a civilized experience, go to Prestige. More

It was an overall great experience. Amazing customer service with a great selection. I would recommend to anyone looking for a great deal. It's hard to find a car dealer now a days that is not that high service with a great selection. I would recommend to anyone looking for a great deal. It's hard to find a car dealer now a days that is not that high pressure buy now or never mentality. I have read other reviews on this board and I don't know who they dealt with but that place is definitely ran top notch. More

My experience with Toyota Universe on this week was awesome. I was desperately in search of a Mini van. The hospitality that was given by Manny was indescribable he was determined and persistent in get awesome. I was desperately in search of a Mini van. The hospitality that was given by Manny was indescribable he was determined and persistent in getting me just what I was looking for. He sat us down and asked a few questions to find out our needs and wants. Took us outside to see the inventory, wao how organized and easy was to compare the sienna models, one beside the other. So we did a comparison of 2 models the base Sienna and the Sienna LE. After that we decide to take the vehicle we like for a drive. What an excellent expierenced it was. Once we got back to the dealership we sat down and he met all my needs. I thought it was going to be time consuming and harder. The hard part was for me to pick a vehicle, woa I never imagined that was going to be the hard part. Best sales expierence ever Thanks Manny you were great. More

I went to Toyota Universe thinking all dealerships are the same, they don't care what you want, what you need, and they only want to sell you what they think is right for me. I'll admit it, I was wrong, the same, they don't care what you want, what you need, and they only want to sell you what they think is right for me. I'll admit it, I was wrong, I went there last weekend and was treated with respect. The salesman Rami really took the time to ask me what I wanted, what I needed, and what I wish I can have in my car. He was able to help me with my finances even though I had very little credit. Rami helped me get my dream car and somehow stay within my budget. I am going to recommend him to all my friends, he really seamed to care about the me and what I am comfortable paying. That dealership was humongous though, they had everything you can't even imagine. They had hot dog, popcorn, coffee, video game. It was just made it more of a fun comfortable environment. More

I had a great experience with Toyota Universe and felt the need to share. I came in to purchase an Avalon, it's been my dream car and I completely expected to be steered towards another vehicle or terms I the need to share. I came in to purchase an Avalon, it's been my dream car and I completely expected to be steered towards another vehicle or terms I wasnt comfortable with. To my surprise Daniel treated me fairly and honestly, he answered all of my quetions completely and I felt that my opinion mattered. When I was handed over to the manager Sean, the experience was a smoothe transition and I could really tell that this team knows what they are doing. I'd definitely recommend doing business with Toyota Universe. More
