Within 5 minutes of writing my first comment I received a telephone call from Brad, one of the Sales Managers. He told me he was unaware that I was made to pay a repair deductible in so few days of my purchasing the vehicle, and said he would refund my deductible. I appreciate that very much, thanks for the follow-up and for fixing the situation, I appreciate it! I feel better now about my purchase.

I purchased a used 4Runner Sport from your lot on 02/25/08. On Sat. 03/08/08, two check engine warnings lights came on. The car went into your service dept. on 03/10/08. In order to pick-up the vehicle, I was charged a $50.00 deductible! Is this typical, that customers are charged deductibles even only after 15 days of owning the newly purchased vehicle? I am disappointed.

I arrived hoping to leave in a new car... instead I left in my tired old car that I cannot wait too leave behind. However, I am still a very satisfied (soon to be) customer. I explained what I am looking for in a vehicle and what sort of payment I need. We discussed some options & I was given a test drive & it came back that we couldn't get a monthly payment that I can be comfortable with for my desired ride! Now the salesman could have tried to pressure me into a less expensive car that I don't want or dismissed me completely. Instead, we figured out what it is going to take to get me into a the car I really do want with a monthly payment that isn't forcing me into a thrice daily diet of Top Ramon.
Last night I was looking at a Yaris (which was a fantastic car that drove surprisingly well) & wanting to shop for a Scion or Matrix. Now that will be possible, except in early spring of 2008! Besides, this gives me plenty of time to settle on a color - Black Berry Crush Metallic, Black Sand Pearl, Hypnotic Teal Mica...
Even though this was the first time I had ever been car shopping & not come back with anything, it was a very pleasant experience. Yes, I will be back to buy my Toyota... with the service I have received so far I know I will be a truly satisfied customer.

Thanks,
Sonja Bovenkerk

We recently purchased a 4-Runner from Reliable (after a bad experience locally). Our salesman, Warren, was great. We had to come back for accessories to the service department, and again, a great experience. Everyone is nice, friendly, patient, etc. We will drive the extra distance for this type of service/experience!!!

A recent email from a Customer:

Tony,
Last week I had a problem with my 2002 Toyota Tundra....the check engine light came on, and after some checking on the internet I realized that an O2 sensor was bad. I found out after a little research that this has been a common problem.

The next morning I drove into the service department unannounced and the service writer got my Tundra in and had it checked on the diagnostic machine and confirmed that I did, in fact, have a bad O2 sensor.

Here is the reason for this correspondence: So many times when people don't get taken care of properly, the business in question hears about the complaints, but when the customer's problems are taken care of in a professional and timely manner, it often goes unnoticed! I did not want this to happen this time. Your service personnel got my truck in and repaired very quickly, and I was able to use it that night as requested.

I was kept informed of the progress, and every single person who saw me standing around asked me if there was anything they could get me.

I know this kind of service does not happen by accident. It takes training, and I commend not only your service people, but also your staff for the training that, in my opinion, makes Reliable Toyota tops in service and customer satisfaction.

I do not know the technician's name who repaired my Tundra, but I hope you will pass my thanks and appreciation on to him, and all the other service people who had a part in this process, for a job "well done".

Sincerely,
R. Gerald Chism

Scott, please accept our apologies. Unfortunately we were extremely busy and the process of buying and selling a car is time consuming. Now that the transaction is finalized I'm glad that everything worked out in the end and that you're the proud owner of a 2007 Toyota Camry LE Sedan. Welcome to the Toyota family!

I came to your store yesterday and had a deal in writing from your sales manager, Anthony. After 30 minutes of waiting with no explanation, they would not finalize the dal and did not return calls. Bad busines
