      Complaint Type:
      Service or Repair Issues
      Status:
      Answered
      I took my truck to Toyota of Warren to be serviced due to my transmission sticking and shifting late. On 4/2/2024 I received a call from the service department stating that they found the problem; it was caused by a leaking gasket and leaking transmission pan. With parts and labor this cost me exactly $1,198.41 to get fixed. I picked my truck up on 4/2/2024 and by 4/8/2024 my truck had the same issues present themselves. I called the service center and took it back only to get a call a day later stating that I need a new transmission or used transmission which through them would be between $6,293.29 to $7,084.66. Don't forget to tack in the $1,198.41 I had already spent for the supposed fix in the first place. I go back to get my truck and held a discussion with a gentleman by the name *********************. *** had offered to give me what I had already spent ($1,198.41) off if I were to get a new transmission through their service center. Here exactly is where the unethical business practice comes into play. At no point was it mentioned that my money could be refunded as the work done clearly was not the correct fix for the problem, rather *** opted to go for the "in for a ***** in for a pound" practice that I learned about through various ethics courses and my career. By not completing the fix correctly in the first place the service center can ensure that I will be back, when I come back they then give me the news that they likely knew all along (unless they are unable to properly diagnose a vehicle while servicing) I will need to have an expensive repair done. By offering money off of the transmission given their initial repairs were not the correct they make themselves seem like the best option to go to for a transmission replacement. You might say to yourself "well at least I get $1,000 off here" which is exactly what they are hoping for.

      If you are looking to buy a used car, I suggest you look somewhere else. I bought a 2017 Chevroler Tax in Oct. 2022. They said that they did a certified check on it and the oil is good for 3 months. Two weeks after I bought it the service engine light came on. I took it in. They did fix it. Got my car back and two weeks later service engine light on again. Took it to auto zone and got the reader and it stated needs new oil filter. So I got a new oil Filter. Then two weeks later again service engine light on again. Took it back to auto zone and got the reader again. It said needs a new oil filter again. So then I took it to get the oil changed. This time it lasted 4 weeks. Now my service engine light is on again. I took it back to Toyota. The sales man **** just got it reset and sent me on my way. Didn't tell me they didn't even check it. I found out that they didn't check it when I took it in a week later because service engine light on again. The service guy processed to tell me that they didn't even check it last week. This time they did check it and told me the cadillac convertor is bad. I argued with them and they will not fix it. I asked to talk to the manger and he never called me or answered my calls. I have had nothing but trouble since I bought this car and They will not help me fix it. I shouldn't have spent this much money on this car and still have to keep putting money in it. The salesman **** didn't listen to me and he just pushed my concerns off and lied to me. They don't care about you. All they want is the sale.
