Toyota of Wallingford New Customer I just purchased a '16 RAV4 from Toyota of Wallingford. Steve Lang, my sales rep., was professional, courteous, and extremely responsive (even on his I just purchased a '16 RAV4 from Toyota of Wallingford. Steve Lang, my sales rep., was professional, courteous, and extremely responsive (even on his days off). I took numerous test drives and had lots of questions since this is the first used vehicle I've ever purchased. Sales rep. Tom Boland, who went on the last test drive with me, was also eager to be helpful and answered my questions, which made me sure about purchasing this vehicle from this dealership. The business transaction for the purchase with Bill D. in Finance was concise, smooth, and informative. Sohail in Finance was great, very nice---he answered questions quickly and clearly. During the sales process, I expressed concerns about very poor reviews I'd seen on-line for this dealership. I was assured I'll have no issues. I trust my future interactions with Toyota of Wallingford will go as smoothly as the sales component. The only downside: CJ (sales mgr.) said that the (high) dealer processing fee is absolutely NOT negotiable, in contradiction to the sales order and posted sign that, as mandated by CT law, state the fee is negotiable. CJ also stated that the customer may never register a vehicle him/herself and that I was completely wrong about the law on this. CGS very clearly states: "the buyer MAY ELECT, WHERE APPROPRIATE, to submit the documentation required for the registration and transfer of ownership of the motor vehicle which is the subject of the sale to the Commissioner of Motor Vehicles, in which case the dealer SHALL reduce such fee by a proportional amount." Please note the dealership sign says the DMV fee shall be reduced by zero. More

Stay Away I would've given "0" stars if I could. Unprofessional, no integrity, and unethical business practices. Watch out for their "optional vin-etching fee I would've given "0" stars if I could. Unprofessional, no integrity, and unethical business practices. Watch out for their "optional vin-etching fee" scam when negotiating. They also will share your vehicle's service history with your name on it if you have your vehicle serviced there and trade it in there and someone request's an pre-sale vehicle inspection report. Their communication is non-existstent. They also rescinded an offer for a free monthly payment due to the fact I was going to write a review regarding the poor experience which falls on Toyota of Wallingford. I have as much confidence in the vehicle I purchased from them as I do in their sales associates which is absolutely zero. More

Toyota, espec Everyone was so wonderful, patient, and helpful as I hopped around the lot try to find my dream car, and asked, at least, 100 questions. Toyota, especially CJ, has helped my other 5 family members find their Toyotas. I couldn’t have found my bright blue RAV4 Hybrid without CJ, Steve, or everyone else who helped me through the car and finance stuff! Wonderful experience, I will be coming back to install a sunroof soon! More
