    My wife and I reached out after we had seen a van we wanted online. I confirmed we were coming to visit the following day and if everything checked out, we would buy the van. It was a two-year-old Sienna with less than 7,000 miles. When we arrived, the van was inside the dealership, but the battery was dead. This should have been red flag number one they knew were coming to drive the van. After jumping the van while backing it out of the building, the tech caught the rear-view mirror on the door frame and snapped the mirror cover off. Second red flag. We said OK and paid cash but since this was a Friday night before a long weekend, the Five Day Money Back Guarantee Herb Chambers offered on this van was going to expire before we could even take delivery. Red flag number three. My insurance agent e-mailed me at 8:30 Tuesday morning that they had returned the insurance information was sent back to the dealer. It wasnt until 5pm that night when Herb Chambers called to set up delivery. I asked for later that evening but was told they didnt have time to get it inspected or cleaned even though I paid cash for the van, and they had Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Red flag number four. I wanted to pick up the van on Wednesday but was told the salesperson wasnt available. I didnt really need him since I picked this car off the internet, but the van didnt pass inspection. Because they let the battery run down, all the emissions didnt pass until the van had been driven a reasonable amount. This is where it gets really poor for customer service: the salesperson told me I could take the van for an inspection, and they would reimburse me for it. Heres the dealer who knew we were coming, but let the battery die and is now putting it on me to get the van inspected. This dealer makes you feel they are doing you the favor by selling you a vehicle. Dont bother with them as there are many other dealers who will treat you with care and do the job you pay them for.

    ****, thank you for the feedback. I'm disappointed to read this review knowing that we worked together to address and rectify each issue that arose. We regret the missteps along the way and wish things had gone more smoothly for everyone. It appeared that you were pleased once the vehicle had been delivered to your home with the battery replaced, codes cleared and the state inspection sticker completed. I was not aware of your concerns surrounding the 5-day return window. If there is anything presenting outstanding, or further questions remain that we can address for you, please feel free to contact me directly. I hope to improve your impression of our team. Respectfully, *************************** - General Manager - ****************************************
