    Not happy with business adding extras when I clearly stated many times I just want to purchase the vehicle. They said I get a toyota care package for buying the vehicle which includes basic headlight uv protection applications along with other interior protection. What they never said was it costs  2,995.00. I have to go once back to have applied. I did not want anything extra other than the brand new toyota 4runner trd offroad premium and factory warranty since there services they push won't be useful for me moving back toMichigan. I asked for it to be removed and said no and stopped responding. Not good business practices. I will return and will inform others to make sure they don't have the same happen.
