Horrible experience! I went here to purchase a used vehicle. Be prepared for high pressure sales; they circle like vultures. Finance is just another opportunity for them to try to sell you unnecessar vehicle. Be prepared for high pressure sales; they circle like vultures. Finance is just another opportunity for them to try to sell you unnecessary extended warranties. So sorry I ever bought from this dealership and I dread having to go back for anything. They failed to get all the information they needed from the car I purchased even after I was there two times, so then they wanted me to come back for a third time. Since it was their fault, I asked that they come to me. Next thing I know I am receiving emails and phone calls at work and at home in which Dustin threatened me! He actually said he was going to call the police and report the car as stolen unless I brought it back in for them within 24 hours. I have never been treated so badly by any company. Everyone I talked to was rude, overbearing and obnoxious except for Mr. Flores. I would not recommend them to my worst enemy. More

I chose Toyota of Dallas for getting my car fixed because they deal with my insurance, and they seemed to be a serious, trustworthy dealer. they indeed dealt very well with my insurance and fixed the car fas they deal with my insurance, and they seemed to be a serious, trustworthy dealer. they indeed dealt very well with my insurance and fixed the car faster than expected. However, I wouldn't recommend Toyota of Dallas to anyone as long as there are other options to fix your car because the quality of work was extremely poor. Some parts needed replacement and they were replaced. Anyone can do that. To be honest, Toyota of Dallas also replaced other components that they found to be affected by the accident and I appreciate that. Other parts that had dents needed fixing and they indeed removed the dents. So the shape of those parts is again as the original. From a functional point of view, the car was fixed the right way. But the process of fixing the dents involves using that plasture material that is white once it is applied and it dries out. I have few friends who work in this area and they all told me that any such work close to other removable parts of the car should start with removing those parts. Toyota of Dallas never did that. I found that white material, and not just a little but significant amounts, between the metallic part of the car and my stoplights. I found it in few other places too. I found little scratches (superficial but still, scratches) on the right back door. I found some yellow marks on the roof and in few places and I'm still trying to remove them after 3-4 washes. Basically, the fixing was clearly done on a rush and with complete disregard for the interest of the client. If nothing else, a new car should have no scratches, not even the superficial ones that show up very clearly on a dark colored car that was treated with that expensive polish treatment they sell. Personally, I am very disappointed. More
I am very disappointed in the customer service and integrity of this dealership. They made a lot of promises but do not deliver. I have been waiting for a check for nearly $1000 as part of my agre integrity of this dealership. They made a lot of promises but do not deliver. I have been waiting for a check for nearly $1000 as part of my agreement since October (It is now February). I can't leave messages, I am transferred from place to place, no call backs, excuse after excuse. I would not recommend this dealership to anyone!!! More
Don't go to Toyota of Dallas!! My husband and I went Don't go to Toyota of Dallas!! My husband and I went there to purchase a used Ford truck we saw on their website. We dealt with Albert in used cars. Don't go to Toyota of Dallas!! My husband and I went there to purchase a used Ford truck we saw on their website. We dealt with Albert in used cars. He lied to my husband from the begin...nothing but pooh comes out of his mouth and he seems arrogant. They photo shop their pictures. Albert sent my husband some pictures of the truck a week before we went to go look at it. There were some spots on the truck that we were worried about but Albert told us they hadn't cleaned the truck yet...blah, blah, blah. So, when we were finally ready to take a trip to Dallas to check out the truck we called Albert to see if we could start dealing. Albert said that they were sending the truck back to auction because they found a issue with the truck and explained it to my husband. My husband has worked on cars all his life and we have family members and friends that are automatics and one friend specializes in Ford. We thought we could handle fixing it if we got the truck for the right price. To help decide if we were going to Dallas we looked at the truck on http://cars.com and it had different pictures on the there and the truck looked clean and some of the spots we were worried about were gone so we decided to go. When we saw the truck we quickly realized the pictures were photo shopped because the truck was dirty again and that spot we thought was tar that got washed away was actually chipped paint with tiny bits of metal missing from the body of truck behind the back wheel. Kind of odd they suddenly reappeared. When we finally meet Albert in person he told a lie immediately saying the truck had new tires...the truck clearly needed tires. We caught him a other lies as well. Albert had another used car salesperson named George(who was very nice...doesn't belong at this dealership) to drive with my husband. During the test drive Albert didn't nothing. While I was waiting on their dirty sofa that was falling apart I heard the man over the used car department cussing and yelling at someone on the phone...I was shocked...he was truly ugly and proud of it. When the test drive was over my husband found more issues with the truck that weren't exactly cheap to fix so figuring what it would cost to fix those things we came up with a price. Albert didn't want to budge off the price because everyone shops online now so they price to sell. And also added to the price of the truck they have a fee for Texas inspection sticker(we live in LA didn't need one and the one on the truck hadn't expired yet, a detailing fee and a fee to pay the loan officers and etc. Fees totaled around $500 but he said it's normally like $700-800 but since we were paying cash it would probably be cheaper. What a joke. We were ready to leave then. Albert told us that he could not sale the truck for any less because they can just get there money back at auction...I seriously doubt that. Trade in value for that truck in it's rough condition was $3000-4,000. This dealership prays on dumb people. I couldn't believe that Albert thought we should pay full price for a truck that had at least $1000 in repairs and that was just parts not including labor. Wish I read the reviews on here before driving the 4 hours. But we did take our daughter to the Dallas Zoo afterward...NOW I RECOMMEND THAT PLACE...great zoo!! More
If I can rate this dealership less than 1 star I would do it in a heart beat. My cousin and I saw an IS 250 online and went to check it out because of it's low price. They did normal dealership thing back a it in a heart beat. My cousin and I saw an IS 250 online and went to check it out because of it's low price. They did normal dealership thing back and forth on pricing with the manager in the back. The car was listed for $22,777 and our offer was $20K and then $21K. The sales person came out with the price with OPTIONS automatically added to the pricing and I asked him what it was and he had no clue what those OPTIONS are when I asked him to explain what they are. Then the manager name, Richard Alverado, came out and lean back on the salesperson's chair like he's some big boss with the rudest attitude of any sales person/manager I have dealt with in my entire life. He tries to do one of the most uneducated analogy that I haven't heard before that If I give his girlfriend's nails service at a discount rate as he can't seem to afford nails service for his costly girlfriend's nails service. Thus saying that I can't ask for any price off his car??? I must have been living in a cave since I wasn't aware that I can't negotiate for pricing when I buy a car!!! He knows that we own nails salon from our credit check. He tries to push toward financing and how much monthly payment we want to meet at but we wanted cash price so we can pay and get out. But we couldn't come into an agreement and left. I called the salesperson back and ask him if we could put down $15K and $150/month for 60 months, and he went to talk to his manager and said "let's do it!" We couldn't come in right away so we schedule to see him the next day. We arrived and he brings out his financing terms. Guess what????!!!!!! $240/month for 72 months!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We drove for 1 hour on the agreement that it was $150/month for 60 months with $15K down!!!!!!I I got so furious the not only the salesperson lied to us to get us in the dealership and now trying to up sell us with their financing terms. Then the finance manager came out and talked to us that he can't do what the salesperson agreed over the phone due to my cousin's credit, not that they didn't run it the day before! We wanted the car and agreed to asking price and thus ask him to run different finance options for us. There was another person looking at the car during this time. The finance manager went back to run the options, it's about 30 minutes and we don't see him. Then another 15 minutes, the salesperson came out and said the car is SOLD!!!!!!!!! We were in total shock and can't believe that we wasted almost 2 days to deal with these people and the car is sold after we agreed to selling price!!!!!! Please please people do not go to this dealership!!! Their business ethic is what makes the term "used car salesman" scary!!!! I have dealt with many dealerships in the DFW and this definitely the worst you can imagine! STAY AWAY STAY AWAY!! More
I recently found a car on their website for a good price. Called and verified the price and that the car was available. I got there, drove the car and said I wanted it. Salesman brought a price sheet with ad Called and verified the price and that the car was available. I got there, drove the car and said I wanted it. Salesman brought a price sheet with adders that brought the price up by $8000.00. Included in this was a $999 prep fee. I told the dealer that I didn't want all of the adders and I would buy the car if they would remove the fee. If not, no deal. Salesman said OK. Started paperwork for the original price I came in for then a sales manager came in. He said that this was not something he could wave. He could not fully explain what this fee was for. I told him it was only to get people in the door then go up on the price and he said that basically I was right. Even with the added price, the deal was on par with other dealers so I continued. Once we got the sales contract, the sale price of the car was $999 higher than original and there was no prep fee on the contract. True deceptive advertizing. I have filed a complaint with the Texas attorney general’s office. I am amazed that Toyota would let them sell their cars. Stay away or watch these guys closely; they are crooks. More
I gave the rating I did because I was lied to about the pricing and incentives that they had available at the time of my sale. I was not given accurate information on the phone about the car and financing pricing and incentives that they had available at the time of my sale. I was not given accurate information on the phone about the car and financing available during the time of the call and or sale. I drove all the way to Dallas from San Antonio to get the deal I saw on-line only to not have the car or deal I was promised on the phone. I keep getting ignored and not called back when I try to schedule the "we owe" work needing done to my car that was promised during the sale. Also, my finance person tried to get me to redo/resign paperwork to back date the sale one day to "keep the $500" savings I already signed for. I feel like the "deal" I got on the price was not that good looking at other dealers and having spoken with then hear in San Antonio now. I feel terrible for buying there in Dallas and I wish I could just give the car back and buy here in San Antonio. I am an Active Duty Military member as well, this is how they treat us there at Dallas of Toyota! :-( I will never be back, or recommend this dealership to anyone!!! :-( More
I got a Toyota Camry 2008 from this dealership on saturday, left their office around 10pm. On my way home, I discovered that the car was not in good a condition, series of unusual noise from the engi saturday, left their office around 10pm. On my way home, I discovered that the car was not in good a condition, series of unusual noise from the engine, movement was not smooth, the car was jacking on acceleration. WHAT? I just spent 17,000+ on a 90,000 + milage of Toyota Camry 08. And this is all i got. Packed the car and used my other car throughout sunday. I called Toyota of Dallas on monday morning and explained my experience with the car on my way home on saturday night. I was asked to bring the car in for a check up. Since i was getting the car for my wife and considering her's and the children's safety, i decided to let go of the car and get a newer Toyota Camry 2012 with a lower milage. The sales manager deducted $3,500.00 from the trade in value of the returned Toyota Camry 08 that i only drove from the dealership to my house. He knew that the car was a total mess up before he sold it to me. First time i would see some who could not even boast of his product. My wife showed him the value of the car. He was even impatient with us. Talking back at us at the top of his voice. I was wondering if he has a conscience at all. I went to this dealership with a good faith of mind but i had to regret ever considering going there in the first place. Will i recommend the service for any one? Not at all. I have started sharing the experience with my church member. More
My wife and I purchased a Camry in January of 2011. We love the car, the car buying process was quick and easy. The finance guy was great, and all in all, we loved our experience and raved about it. Howev love the car, the car buying process was quick and easy. The finance guy was great, and all in all, we loved our experience and raved about it. However, since buying the car, things have changed. We quickly realized that the extended warranty "Preferred Plus" was not correctly added to our account at the time of purchase when the purchase documents were entered online. Rather, the "Preferred" plan was entered. This meant that there was no record of our ability to receive general maintenance as a part of our contract. I came into the dealership about 1 year ago with my original paperwork in hand in order for them to correct this mistake. They made copies of the paperwork, apologized, and assured me all was good. I picked up my car from service and was on my way. Recently, I returned to dealership, and my experience couldn't have been worse. When I turned in my car for maintenance and an oil change with the tech, I was informed that the maintenance was not covered. He was very professional and explained that I needed to speak with the finance department. Of course, since I thought I had already addressed this issue and rectified it, I knew immediately that I would need to speak with someone in the finance department as well. I walked into the showroom and met one of the finance managers. He took me to his office and pulled up my account. He informed me that, I "must have been mistaken" and that I did not get that type of warranty. Unfortunately, he didn't take the time or effort to actually listen to me when I was stating that I did get the service, and it was not entered in correctly. He was condescending at best. He told me that unless I got the paperwork to him, then there was nothing he could do. I told him that I would agree to once again get the paperwork, but this time, I wanted to know what was going to be done for me in order to insure that I did not have this issue in the future and to ensure that things were made right if I had to drive home to get paperwork again--since I had provided it 1 year earlier to correct their error. I also wanted to know that when I was proven correct, how he was going to rectify the situation. He told me to hold on and walked out of the room. He said he needed to talk to his director. When he came back, he began arguing with me further stating that I must not have understood (aka calling me either ignorant or a liar). At that point, I asked to speak with his manager, who in-turn said he couldn't meet with me until next Tuesday (it was a Thursday)! Finally, he went away from the office again only to come back stating that I was indeed correct, I had purchased the "Preferred plus" warranty, and he drew up additional paperwork stating that fact. I asked him at that point, if he thought it might have been more prudent to look into things rather than arguing with a customer and be condescending, and he flatly replied, "It is fixed now, is there anything else I could do for you?" Two hours wasted for an oil change and not even an apology. He didn't even attempt to rectify the situation or redeem an unsatisfied customer. I have been in customer service for 15 years now, and I can count on one hand how many times I have been treated this poorly. Furthermore, if one of my associates had treated one of my customers in this manner, they would no longer be my associate. I commented on to the dealership's facebook page regarding the incident. Within a matter of moments the general manager (Darren) asked me to email him and describe the situation. After 3 weeks and 3 follow-up emails, I finally got a response from him saying that since I didn't explicitly ask him for a reply he didn't think he needed to respond to my email, He also mentioned that he "talked" to those who were involved. It was a little surprising since 3 emails should have clued him into the need for a response. Nevertheless, he never apologized, never said he wanted to try and earn back some loyalty. In my last email to him, I explicitly stated that I would like for him to ensure that my account has been updated in their system, so I do not encounter this in the future. Once done, I asked him to let me know that it has been taken care of. That was over 4 weeks ago. Not a peep or response. My entire family owns Toyotas; however, since the new management took over, I won't do business there anymore. The lack of concern, disrespectful attitudes, and lack of desire to rectify their mistakes makes this dealership not worth it. I would prefer to pay a bit more and not be treated like xxxx. More
