    Status:
    Answered
    Girard Toyota *** claims to have "scrubbed" my email address from their email/postal list numerous times, however, they continue to email me, last email received today from an Ana H****, thanking for my visit, in which case, have not visited dealership in several months, as far back as last year, do not have exact date. This dealership says one thing, turns around, does another, actions do not follow their words. The business claims I signed up for emails by providing my email address for a prior service visit, which is a lie, there was no opt-in to receive sales emails via service department, have not had service in several months. Due to past negative experience, I no longer do business with this dealership, do not buy cars from them. My extent to doing business includes only service to a vehicle and or repair. I've attached screen shot of email received today.

    Used this repair shop for a fix geico estimated would take 3 days. It actually took 45 days. I was refused to get my personal belongings out of my vehicle in this process. The woman who answered the phone each time had no idea about any details about the status of my truck. She couldn’t answer any questions at all actually. I also have the Toyota app on my phone which also sends me notifications when the truck has doors open, unlocked, gas mileage etc. well the truck was left unlocked many days, and gas mileage lower on 4/5 different notifications that were sent to me. So I am just pretty upset I’m paying my loan for them to take 45 days to fix.. I have emailed, called, left messages, many times during this fix to keep myself updated, letting them know I trusted them to keep my doors locked (esp on a Sunday while they are closed) they never once took the time to call, email back. Don’t give them your business. You definitely won’t be their priority.
