    We recently purchased a certified pre-owned vehicle. We were told multiple times throughout the buying process that the car would be detailed and completely clean and that a large tear in the drivers seat that was there when we bought the car would be fixed before leaving. Then the detailing department couldn't fit us in so we made a detailing appointment for 5 days after we bought the car and were told the tear in the seat would be fixed. We left the car for 24 hours and then were told they would have to fix the seat another time so we scheduled an appointment for a week later. Upon calling before this second appointment we were told they would be putting in a warranty claim for the seat which doesn't make any sense considering this tear happened from a previous owner and again, we were told repeatedly this all would be fixed before buying. After picking up our car from the "detailing" appointment I was shocked to see the work they had done. There were detailing chemicals still in door handles, cup holders, everywhere. Dog hair everywhere (from previous owners), stains on the ceiling and carpets (from previous owners), garbage shoved in cup holders, a disgusting mess, all from previous owners. We spent almost an hour of our own time re-vacuuming the car. We immediately called and asked to speak to the manager and were told that they would send us to the detailing manager who refused to answer his phone or call anyone back. We called a few days later again and were told that they would make sure "Al" called us back to which he still has never done. We have called service and asked to speak to a service manager, left a message and were never called back, called the front desk and asked to speak to the general manager, forwarded to AutoNation ****** and then told that the general manager wasn't available, could not explain why but they could provide us their email which I'm sure will also not be responded to.

    Awful!I found a late model, low mileage vehicle I was interested in about a week ago and visited with a salesman about it and scheduled a test drive and inspection. I made it clear that I planned to buy it while there if it matched the description from AutoNation's online listing. I was told I needed to sign a document, affirming my interest and agreeing to their price. I signed it and returned it and the Used Car Sales Manager - ********************* - wrote back and said the vehicle would be taken out of inventory and would be unavailable to anyone else pending my visit the next week.The next week I made the 450 mile trip from the ****** coast to Spokane to see the vehicle, test drive it and buy it. My appointment was set by the dealership for 11:45 but I notified them that I planned to be there between **** a.m.. When I was literally 10 minutes from the dealership shortly after 9 a.m., ****** called to inform me that they had sold the car the day before. This, in spite of the fact that I had signed and returned his paperwork which supposedly took it out of inventory and made it unavailable to any other customer. When I questioned him about how this could happen, he had no explanation and offered no remedy - even though AutoNation is a national dealership with lots of inventory.These people at AutoNation Toyota in Spokane Valley are not trustworthy. After assuring me they had this vehicle reserved for me and set an appointment for me to simply confirm its condition, they inexplicably sold it to someone else and did not bother to tell me they had done so until I had already made the 450 mile trip. Buyer beware!
