  I purchased a certified pre owned ****** from performance toyota and on the test drive we had to stop and fill up the tank, salesman gets out and puts a few bucks in the tank and we carry on didn't think any more of it at the time. Well the next day the tank reads empty again and I go fill it up and only gets a few bucks in the tank. Turns out the gas gauge was not working properly so they make a few attempts to fix it and finally I have to bring in the truck a third or fourth time and let them keep it for 9 months, all while my warranties are going to waste sitting in their shop and I am still making payments on a vehicle I can not drive. They offered no help with the warranties despite the issue blatantly interfering with their certified checklist of items that the vehicle is supposed to be checked for. After finally getting the vehicle back and talking with cooperate about the warranty cooperate offered me the platinum warranty package for the issues I ran into. Now less than a year later I am having issues with the front steering and suspension, all parts that would fall under the warranty but the service department is voiding the warranty due to parts on the truck, all parts that where on the truck when I bought it. performance is the only ones that have worked on the vehicle specifically so I would not go against any warranty guidelines. Now they are saying their are parts on the vehicle that voids the warranty, the exact same parts that where on there when they sold it as a certified used vehicle. So now I have two separate instances that they sold me a vehicle that did not meet their certified check list. The vehicle has already sat at their shop for half the time I have been paying for it and now they want me to pay out of pocket to fix everything else going on now when it should be under warranty.

  Good morning,

  The dealership is going to have *** **** bring the vehicle back to the dealership to see what can be done regarding the repairs that are not covered by his extended warranty.  This may include covering a portion of the repairs internally or possibly trading him out of the vehicle.

  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, reasons for rejection are included below.

  
  

  Who am I supposed to come in and talk to? I have not been contacted by anyone at the dealership and no name or number was left in this response. All of the repairs are covered under my warranty corporate gave me after the last issue. But since I was sold a certified pre owned that I'm being told has parts that are not supposed to be on a certified pre owned your sales manager told the warranty company that the warranty is void. I will fill a complaint with the attorney general if I have to, as I said there has already been one instance you had to repair the vehicle because you sold the vehicle with a broken dash cluster that took almost 9 months to fix. With me paying on a vehicle I could not drive and was offered no help on the warranty other that being told it was in fact just expiring while sitting in your shop. I had to contact toyota corporate and they gave me this platinum warranty which covers all of these repairs. But now your service manager won't allow the repairs to be covered since the suspension has parts on it that he says should not be on it. But I was sold the vehicle as is, as a certified pre owned and your shop has been the only one to work on this vehicle specifically so no warranty was voided. So those parts should not have been on it if it was marked up and sold to me as a certified pre owned. I have already opened yet another case with corporate against you on this. I will open a case with the attorney general if these repairs do not get taken care of or as you said in the response trade me in for an actual certified pre owned trd pro with same or less mileage. So far this truck has been nothing but a hassle since I bought it and the only way to get anything fixed is to get corporate involved as the dealership has offered me nothing but excuses.

  Good afternoon,

  The service manager at Performance Toyota spoke with *** **** and explained to *** **** that the dealership as ordering the necessary parts to repair the vehicle at no cost to *** ****.  As soon as the parts arrive at the dealership, they will schedule *** ****** vehicle for the repairs. *** **** also agreed to allow the dealership to remove the Spring Spacers so that going forward his warranty will be valid.

  They have agreed to fix the vehicle and remove the suspension parts that were on it when sold to me that they now say voids the warranty even though the vehicle had the same parts when the warranty was given to me. Hopefully this will avoid any future problems that may occur and this fixes everything.

  We brought my husband’s truck in November 15th for a steering wheel issue and censor. They did the inspection stated an alignment would potentially fix the issue but there could be damage to something else. They stated it needed alignment, sensor calibration but to completely fix the issue control arms replaced. This is a 2021 brand new Toyota ****** purchased and serviced at this dealership still under warranty. The warranty manager Kathy stated the parts were damaged even before we authorized the repair and she would not submit parts and labor to warranty. Not wanting a brand new truck to be further messed up since they states they needed these parts we had the work done and I asked For the parts taken off the truck. We had them inspected by another mechanic and he stated he would have not even recommended those be replaced they are functioning and the truck only has 19,000 miles on it. So very concerned that the parts are not being submitted to warranty to cover up unnecessary work or bad customer service from Kathy. We have been working with corporate on this issue for 3 weeks and they have tried to contact the dealership and Kathy several times to help resolve with no response.

  Good morning,

  When the vehicle was brought to the dealership, it was caked with mud.  The customer stated the vehicle was damaged while they were off-roading.  The dealership explained that the Toyota warranty does not cover damage outside of normal wear and tear.  The dealership advised *** ****** to open up a case directly with Toyota since any coverage for this vehicle would be up to Toyota to offer goodwill since the damage is outside of normal wear and tear.  *** ****** continued to insist that the dealership submit the repairs as a warranty claim.  This is something the dealership will not do.  If the dealership were to do this, they would be required to send the parts to Toyota for them to inspect.  The dealership would be flagged by Toyota for a fraudulent claim and would in turn be billed back for the cost of the repairs and possibly have Toyota pursue further actions against the dealership.

  We have the video of the inspection and the truck is not caked with mud and the parts are covered under warranty. This be chile has 14,000 miles on it and was designed to be TRD and advertised falsely. My husband drove it for regular daily driver and does go camping in Kentucky so there are some dirt roads. It was bought from that dealership off the truck brand new in 2021. The service department does not honor their repairs corporate called them several times no response from Kathy or Solomon! Coroporwte also checked his warranty and it should be covered/

  Purchased a 2023 Toyota Camry from Performance Toyota with extended warranty and was told warranty honored by all Toyota/***** dealterships. Purchased a new ***** from ***** ********* ******** and when ***** tried to transfer the remaining warranty money to the new ***** we were told that the warranty was a third party company that ***** has no dealings with and therefore it was my responsibility to get the refund.

  This business has refused to communicate with me regarding information. I have reached out to them countless times and nobody that I explain my situation to, is available. I end up getting directed to people and leaving voicemails. I have received two different timeframes. I have received that it can take anywhere from 30-45 days for me to receive my vehicle that's in the lot, or it can take 7-10 business days. Just depends on the check being cleared. This is a loan check that has been approved already. I called my credit union on the phone with the Sales Manager, who at first told me they don't accept outside financing, but changed his mind when I was about to leave, but my credit union confirmed the loan check is approved and that the funds are available. My credit union said it just depends on Performance Toyotas checking for processing, but I should be able to take the car since it's been approved. The finance manager stated that he wouldn't let me drive the car off the lot, as of fear of the check being bounced. I promise you it won't bounce as it is coming from **** ******* not my personal account. I feel like they are intentionally delaying me to have my car. I feel like I can't get a clear answer when I speak to anyone. And whenever I try to leave a voicemail, the voicemails are full. I don't feel valued and I feel like I'm being lied to and this whole operation seems deceitful. I have the funds presented to you. Let me take the vehicle home. Additionally, I have also made a significant down payment. I paid $8,000 down.

  Good morning,

  When *** ****** purchased his vehicle, he presented the dealership with a bank draft for payment.  When a dealership accepts a bank draft for the purchase of a vehicle, there are certain laws and procedures that they must abide by before releasing the vehicle.  The dealership must make sure that all paperwork is completed properly as well as making sure there are no title issues.  The dealership did advise *** ****** of this as it could take upwards of 30 days to complete the title work, depending upon circumstances.  This had nothing to do with the dealership being concerned that the draft would bounce as a bank draft is secure funding.  *** ****** was able to pick up his vehicle this past weekend.

  The customer service is absolutely atrocious. I had to speak to numerous numbers of people regarding the issue. I was only allowed to speak to one person. I feel really burned that this is being put back on me. I was informed that it could take 30-45 days or until the funds are available. My credit union confirmed the funds were available and were cashed on Thursday. And yet I was not able to take the vehicle off the lot. I had to provide a processed check for the dealership to let me take the car off the lot. Jermaine was able to help me with this. But it just felt ridiculous because I could never get a clear answer. Additionally, I was told people were taking notes and would call me back, but I never received a call back except from Kara in accounting. I even was supposed to speak to Tom M****** and he never returned my call. So not only am I frustrated with the dealership delay in delivery but the fact that the dealership has terrible customer service and doesn't follow though. I do have my vehicle now, but only because I had to showcase I had a legal document that shows the check had been cashed.

  I purchased a **** ***** *** on march16,2024 from this dealership. they added on a charge of$595. when i asked what it was i was told it was for ******** a service that could track your car if it was stolen. I was also told it wasn't an option they put them on every car. But when i read the owner manuel I find this is already on the car thru the lexus app. Since toyota not only makes lexus but both lexus dealerships here belong to performance. How did they not know it was duplicating something totally unnecessary. I attempted to call used car manager and finance manager more than once but only got voice mail and no return call

  April of 2024 I bought a **** ****** *****. When I picked the vehicle up the salesman then tells me there is a shortage of keys and I receive only one. Cam, the salesman, stated they would be in soon and he would send one. Almost 2 months later and no one in sales including the Sales Manager David of the General Manager Tom M****** will return my calls. I also stopped by after a month and could not get any solid answers.

  Date: 06/19/2024

  Good afternoon,

  In response to the complaint filed by *** ********, this issue is not with the dealership, it is with the manufacturer. Most automobile manufacturers have been experiencing a shortage of key fobs for many models due to the ongoing chip shortage. I experienced this same issue when I purchased my vehicle last July and only received the letter this past March stating the second key was now available.  The manufacturer (Toyota) will notify the consumers with a letter when they second key fob is available for their vehicle.  The dealership understands the frustration with this but can do nothing more until the consumer has been notified of the key fob availability.

  I believe there is a lack of transparency and trust with the dealerships selling of cars with only one vehicle key. It wasn't until they handed over my documents that they stated there is only one key.

  I believe that if I wanted to buy a spare key or had damaged the One I  have, there would suddenly be a key.

  i believe this to be an unsavory practice for the consumer.

  4 months for a key fob I could buy online for less than $200 seems a bit outlandish. If the fobs are available on the open market then how are they not available from the manufacturer.  This seems to be an attempt to prolong the customers dependence on the dealership for whatever reason.

  The dealership should be required to place large pieces of signage around their dealership stating their "lack" of key fobs.

  Open and honest would solve this but at the moment makes Performance Toyota seems excuse ridden and dishonest in their business practices.

  Went to dealership and purchased a **** ****** *****. I was supposed to get the supplier discount in which I mentioned to sales rep TJ. He said he would check with finance. Normally, we provide a certificate and actually had it pulled up on my phone. He came back and said it’s $500 off which didn’t sound right. At the end of sale, I mentioned to the finance manager Jeff R***** about the supplier discount. He said he didn’t handle that and it was done upfront. After getting home, called Toyota Financial and they said dealer should’ve given me a certificate showing preferred pricing and it should’ve been at dealer invoice cost. I’ve been trying to contact sales, finance etc… to get this taken care of and had a couple of call backs just to find out what was going on. Since then, no call backs from finance manager or general manager as I’ve left multiple messages. It’s been going on over 3 weeks now. Do not buy from this dealership as they are deceiving in their practices and their customer support is terrible.

  On October 29, 2022 I purchased a car from Performance Toyota sales person ***. On October 31, 2022 it took me 10 minutes to get my car started. I contacted *** by text and he said it may be the battery or due to cold weather. Had the battery checked and it came back good. On November 8, 2022 I again contacted *** with the same issue and was told to set an appointment which I did. I requested my starter to be checked because the issue of it not starting up was now not just in the morning. I was told by the service intake person that they could do nothing until they experienced the non-start. I have taken it in several times and asked for them to check my starter and it was not done. I have had other issues with the car and have been told to take it to Hyundai because it was something they needed to do by the same service intake person. Hyundai has done all of the recalls that needed to be done. On Monday April 24, I took my car to Toyota for other issues I was having and when the mechanic tried to start the car it took them awhile to get it started and I was then told I needed a new starter at the sum of $300. There are other issues with this car that need to be handled but I use this car to transport my son to school and they are now saying because it’s been 6 months there is nothing they can do. I was told to call the GM ******** but they were unsure when he would be in and I left a message for the other manager and still nothing. My son has been late to school due to this issue that was pointed out 2 days after I purchased the car. I have all of the text messages as well as the paperwork from service that shows I addressed this early on. I would just like for my starter to be replaced and I not be responsible for something that I made sure to notify them about.

  Dear Better Business Bureau, I am writing to file a complaint against Performance Toyota for false advertising and misleading practices. I recently received an offer from Performance Toyota for $32,000 for my car. However, when I arrived at the dealership, the offer was revised to $28,500. This sudden decrease in the offer amount was extremely misleading and felt like false advertising. I was given no explanation for the revision and it felt like a bait-and-switch scam. I believe that Performance Toyota's behavior is unethical and constitutes a breach of trust. By advertising a high offer and then significantly lowering it, they have misled potential customers and engaged in false advertising. This is not a fair business practice and should not be tolerated. I am seeking a resolution to this issue and request that Performance Toyota rectify their actions by being transparent about their offers. I would also like to warn others about this deceptive business practice to prevent them from being similarly misled and taken advantage of. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. Sincerely, Skyler Martin

  Like I said in the original complaint I called this dealership via the phone told them I would like to SELL my car and wanted to know a rough estimate of how much they would give for my car, mentioning the previous offer I had got from another Toyota dealership of $31,000. They said "Oh yeah we'll have no problem giving you at least $32,000 if not more". At this time i scheduled an appointment to come to the dealership and complete the offer they had given me. I got to the dealership and they changed their number to $28,300 with the reasoning that once we see it in person the value changes. I asked is there something wrong with my car and they said no. This is incredibly deceitful and not a way to conduct business. They purely had said this number to get me in the door only to waste my time and not offer me what they said they would on the phone.

  Better Business Bureau:
  
  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, reasons for rejection are included below.
  
  Like I said in the original complaint I called this dealership via the phone told them I would like to SELL my car and wanted to know a rough estimate of how much they would give for my car, mentioning the previous offer I had got from another Toyota dealership of $31,000. They said "Oh yeah we'll have no problem giving you at least $32,000 if not more". At this time i scheduled an appointment to come to the dealership and complete the offer they had given me. I got to the dealership and they changed their number to $28,300 with the reasoning that once we see it in person the value changes. I asked is there something wrong with my car and they said no.
