I went in for service today with my vehicle and found out that car toys never put back the moisture guard that was supposed to beon the door because of this I was not able to get an understanding as to why my car door was vibrating. I went in there got a diagnostic done at my ****** from from there, they check the door and could not resolve the issue. I later took it upon myself to ask them where my barrier was, and told me it had been removed and replaced with some soundproofing padding that I purchased from car toys because of this there was mildew growing inthe door due to exposures. I called car toys and spoke to the manager about this in hopes to resolve it peacefully he said he cannot do anything as it had beenthree years since that time of the installation I had informed him that I would just contact the Better Business Bureau that seemed to upset the manager leading to him up the phone on me. This is not my first issue with car toys, as I had a problem before when they decided to not fix my speakers properly **** had to ask them through the Better Business Bureau to fix it, they did so and compensated the entire project. I hope I can resolve this situation if needed. I can send pictures as well of the interior of the door panel. Please keep in mind that also on the phone I to the manager about why that wasnt there and they informed me that this was normal for them to remove the barrier. How do I known thatthey were going to remove it? I wouldve told him to keep it and not put the padding there, but they did not inform me that they would remove a partthat was a part of my vehicle. I believe that this should be compensated, not only for having to pay for service of a diagnostic fee ******, but for the replacement of the part as well, I looked up the part and even called ****** and the part alone is $90Business Response

I visited Car Toys in ******* on March 23, 2025, and purchased a Pioneer DX 3000NEX Android Auto head unit during their advertised "Free Same-Day Installation" promotion. The ad also included a free backup camera with qualifying purchases ($199+).At the time of the sale, I was told the additional cost was for adapter kits. However, after reviewing the invoice, I discovered that I was charged $625 in labor alone. The camera was listed as $0.00, confirming the promotion was ********* requesting a partial or full refund of the labor charge, as it contradicts the Free Installation promotion and was not disclosed clearly. I am happy to provide the invoice and screenshots of the promotion if needed.Ive since visited another Car Toys location, where staff confirmed that this is their standard rate, even under the free install promotion. I believe this is misleading and contradicts the advertised offer. Industry-standard labor for this work is far lower typically $200$300 total in the ******* area.Ive reached out via email (twice), visited the store, left a review, and filed a complaint with the WA Attorney General. Im now seeking support from the BBB to help resolve this issue.Business Response

Brought my ****** from the dealership to Car Toys to install a subwoofer and amp in November 2024 ********, *****. (1)This is an off road vehicle, but the tech installed the amp underneath my front seat. I asked for it to be installed in the back, however the tech stated it needed to be install underneath the seat to prevent overheating. Later found out that this information is not true. (2) The tech scratched my glove box, he admitted he caused the damages. He said bring it back and he would try and fix it. I had to call another local car toys. The manger had to contact the car toys who did the install to inform the manager to file a claim. (3) The tech installed a bass volume by drilling a hole in my dash. I informed the tech this is a lease vehicle and I can't have any aftermarket permanently attached. He stated he didn't tell me before install because it was a "suprise" and refused to file a claim for the dash. (4) Tech cut my carpet out and removed my a/c vents underneath my seats in oder to install the amp. (5) There is exposed speaker wiring along the seams of my passenger back seat. It's my responsibility to return the vehicle in the "exact" condition purchased for my warranty and lease agreement. The only thing I'm asking is for car toys to repair the damages they caused to my lease vehicle. I have unsuccessfully contacted Car Toys over the phone and in person for the last 4 months and still no resolution!Business Response
Date: 03/28/2025
After reviewing the situation with our management team, it seems there was some misunderstanding regarding the placement of the products. They believed they had set clear expectations for the installation process beforehand.
We want to assure you that the replacement glove box was ordered as soon as the issue was brought to our attention and is currently on hand. Additionally, the store has been actively working on a resolution for your other concerns, and they are confident they have found a solution that will address them.
You should be receiving a call from the installation manager soon to discuss the next steps. Please dont hesitate to reach out if you have any further questions or concerns.Respectfully,
***** ******, Regional Manager

Complaint Against:CarToys **************** **************************************************************************************** Account Number: ********** Purchase Date: 03/03/2025 I am filing this complaint due to misleading sales practices, poor product quality, and refusal to provide proper customer service.I purchased a PAC RadioPro Class 1 ($119.99) after being assured it would retain all factory features in my 2005 ***** Silverado 2500HD. However, it does not retain steering wheel controls or OnStar, which was never disclosed to **** also purchased a FRTC 1500 FT MAX RANGE remote starter ($99.99) and an ALARM4YR1 warranty ($129.99). I was never informed that the $129.99 charge was a warranty. When I attempted to return both, I was told I could only receive in-store credit because the clerk did not want to wait for the system to process a refund, despite CarToys No Hassle, Free Returns policy. I was forced to use store credit and still had to pay an additional $43.09.With the credit, I purchased a STIN Dash Cam 2CH ($169.96), expecting high quality. Instead, the camera does not record in Full HD, lacks night vision, and is poorly designed. I also bought a PACC Steering Wheel Control Module ($89.99), which was used, covered in tape glue, missing pieces, and had cut wiresyet was sold at full price without disclosure.Since these issues arose, I have called multiple times and either been hung up on, placed on hold indefinitely, or told a manager would not assist me. I live 3.5 hours away and cannot keep dealing with this negligence.I am requesting:1.A full refund for the RadioPro, Dash Cam, and Steering Wheel Control Module.2.A refund for the $129.99 warranty I was not informed of.3.A refund for the additional $43.09 I was forced to pay.If this issue is not resolved, I will escalate it to consumer protection agencies and legal channels if necessary.***** ****** ********** *****************************Business Response

Subject: Re: Complaint Response Unresolved *************************************************** you for your response. However, your resolution does not adequately address the issues I experienced, nor does it align with CarToys stated No Hassle, Free Returns policy. Additionally, despite your claim that CarToys has been trying to reach me, I have not received a single phone call, email, or any other form of communication from your company attempting to resolve this matter.
1. Misleading Sales Practices I was explicitly told the *** ******** Class 1 would retain all factory features in my 2005 ***** Silverado 2500HD, which was false. The salesperson failed to disclose that it does not retain steering wheel controls or OnStar, leading to a misinformed purchase.
2. Return Policy Violation I attempted to return both the remote starter and warranty, but was told I could only receive in-store credit because the clerk did not want to wait for the system to process a refund. This contradicts CarToys advertised No Hassle, Free Returns policy. Furthermore, I was forced to pay an additional $43.09 for replacement items.
3. Defective and Used Merchandise The ***C Steering Wheel Control Module I received was used, covered in tape glue, missing parts, and had cut wiresyet was sold to me at full price without disclosure.
4. Lack of Communication & **************** I have called multiple times and either been hung up on, placed on indefinite hold, or told a manager would not assist me. Now, Im being asked to travel 3.5 hours to resolve an issue that should have never occurred in the first place. Furthermore, your claim that CarToys has attempted to reach me is completely false, as I have received no phone calls or emails regarding this matter.
Your response does not offer a real solution. I have already made extensive efforts to resolve this issue, and I am not willing to waste more time dealing with store representatives who have already refused to assist me.
I expect:
A full refund for the RadioPro, Dash Cam, and Steering Wheel Control Module
A refund for the $129.99 warranty I was not informed about
A refund for the additional $43.09 I was forced to pay
If a resolution is not provided, I will escalate my complaint to consumer protection agencies and legal channels if necessary.
I expect a written response with a concrete resolution within 7 days.

Subject: Re: Ongoing Issue Still ******************************************************** you for your message. However, I must clarify that your statement is inaccurate. While I did speak with the store manager, no date or time was ever confirmed for me to come in.
As I have mentioned before, I live 3.5 hours away and Im currently in the police academy, which makes an in-person visit extremely difficult. I even suggested shipping the items back as a solution, but that was refused without any alternative offered.
I have been clear and cooperative throughout this process, and *** repeatedly asked the store manager to simply make this right. I am still fully expecting a complete refund for the misrepresented, defective, and improperly sold products.
It is extremely frustrating trying to work with a company where there is little to no communication between locations or departments. Let me also reiterate that prior to me reaching out to another CarToys location myself yesterday, no one from your company had attempted to contact me, despite claims otherwise.
I remain willing to work toward a resolution, but it needs to be one that respects my time, circumstances, and the clear facts of this situation. I expect a written response offering a concrete and realistic refund solution that doesnt require me to travel hours out of my way.

I brought my truck to this store on 2/16/2025 for a backup camera repair. They told me new camera is $70 and labor to connect it is $280. They claimed it needed to be connected all the way to the radio. I later discovered that connection was there in the back of the car which would have taken them 5 minutes to connect it. I ended up paying $80 for diagnostics and wasting over an hour of my time and got nothing in the end. God knows how many people are over charged and scammed every day in this store!Business Response
Date: 02/27/2025
To whom it may concern,
You brought your vehicle in for a diagnostic and you were charged our shop minimum fee for the service of troubleshooting your back up camera not functioning. Our technician identified the problem and notified you of the issue, therefore rendering the service you agreed to and paid for. You were offered to have the camera repaired by running a new cable and having the old camera replaced with a new one so that we could guarantee a safe and reliable product in your vehicle. You chose not to have that service performed at the additional cost. We at Car Toys did what you agreed to and paid for. If you would like your $80 back, we will refund your money, but this not based on Car Toys doing anything wrong.

I went in today to get a radio installed on my 2017 4Runner. They charged us $406.81 to get the radio installed and when they finished the job we went to check the radio to make sure eveything was working. Every button in my steering wheel did not work. We called the store immediately and let them know the issue. The manager stated that it was working when they did the checks at the shop. I told him we were there 10 min ago and I assured him none of the buttons were working on my steering wheel at all. I expressed my concerns that we were charged $406 for a job and now my car isnt working properly. The radio works yes but none of my controls on my stereo work and I think when you own a business you shouldnt let a car leave without fully working properly. He said that it is an android radio and sometimes things will stop working and he said he told us that before install. That was not mentioned because if it was my husband would have installed the radio himself and saved $406, the only reason we had a shop do the work was to 1. Have a warranty and 2. To make sure all the buttons were working after install and this was not the case. I feel scammed out of $406 and now my car isnt working properly.Business Response

We do guarantee our installation for life and the customer did bring in an aftermarket product that we do not sell. We did express to the husband that these products can sometimes have glitches from what we have seen in the past and he understood this prior to install. We did bring in the customer at no charge to verify our installation was done properly. We did get the unit working again with a reset and this unit is mostly all plug and play, especially the steering wheel controls. If the steering wheel controls stop working again, then it is a problem with the aftermarket unit that we didnt sell, and the customer will need to contact that manufacturer. We will be more than happy to continue to assist our customer with installations or possibly find another option that we can back with our product warranties. Thank you for working with us to find a solution that best fits your needs.

Although the company did take the car back and fix the radio. Yes my buttons on my steering wheels are working now but my center counsel has been pooping out since they gave it back.

I bought a remote start as a Christmas gift. The reason I purchased the unit that I did was that installation was included in the purchase price. I went in today for the installation and was told that it would cost an additional $250 which is more than I paid for the unit. This is clearly a bait and switch SCAM. I asked to return it for a refund to be told that the location was unable to take it back since it was purchased online. I've emailed customer service and naturally they are unavailable on the weekend. I would like to return this item for a full refund or for Car Toys to do the right thing and install as advertised.Business Response

On Sunday, 1/5/2025 we brought our Jeep in due to the stereo system shorting out. (*******************, Frisco tx) They said it would be a couple hours. We live more than ******************************* the area until they were done with Jeep. We received a call hours later from the technician stated he lost our Jeep key. My husband and I were shocked and stated it was our only key and they had to come up with an immediate solution. The technician said he would call his "Key guy" to make another and he would be there in 5 minutes. We waited for over an hour with perishable groceries and when the guy still hadn't arrived, we told the technician we had to drive home so our food wouldn't spoil. The technician said it would be done by 4 pm and he would call us then. At 5:30 pm, we had to call back and they said we could come before close and get the key. We drove out and when we arrived they said that the new key works manually, but the fob will not allow keyless entry lock and unlock and the remote start does not work. There was no apology given, no statement that they would correct this situation. My husband and I were very frustrated as we felt we were patient and understanding up until that point. We informed the technician and supervisor on duty that was not acceptable and they needed to fix it by providing us with a key that had all the same features as the key they lost. Accidents happen, but the burden on them was to make it right. The technician then tried to upsell me and have me purchase a remoteless entry key product at the store so he wouldn't have to call the key guy back. We declined. After we drove home, we discovered that when we go to manually lock/unlock our Jeep with the new key fob, it triggers the alarm in the Jeep so we currently have no way to secure our vehicle. This is one of the most disappointing and insane displays of unprofessionalism and incompetence that my husband and I have ever witnessed and it needs to be addressed immediately.Business Response

I realize that I cannot get the money back from the install because car toys did the work and that I cannot return the radio and just pay the restocking fee because it has been pass 30 days so I asked if I could at least get a refund on the warranty. Theres no way I can use that. I do not know how to uninstall the radio, and theres nobody that can help me. I called car toys on 11/21 asking if I could get the refund for just the warranty or at least a partial refund. I was told no. I have been a customer of toys since 2019. A repeat customer fact. I still have this financed with over $1000. The warranty was $329.99. That is what Im asking to be refunded to me or at least a partial refund.Customer Answer

Car toys mailed me a check for the warranty so they did what I asked. You can close this complaint to my satisfaction, thank you.
