My Review of Copeland Toyota Scion:
I always bought my Toyotas and had them serviced at the Clair dealership in West Roxbury. Eventually I moved from West Roxbury to Bellingham, Mass. It is a distance of about 45 miles. I never had a problem with Clair. The service writers were pleasant and my 1989 Camry lasted thirteen years. I then bought a RAV4 from Clair and then traded it in for a newer model. Soon after I bought the second RAV4, Clair sold its dealership to Prime. I still continued with Prime but something had changed at the dealership. There were always new people at the service counter. I continued with Prime until one day I went in for regularly scheduled service and to have the tire pressure light reset (caused by Prime on a previous service visit). I thought all was fine until halfway home when the tire pressure light came back on. I called Prime and the man I spoke to was sympathetic and told me to come back the next day. Because of the distance, I told him it was an inconvenience for me to drive that distance again. I also told him I would not come back to Prime and since that time, I have been true to my word. One day while in Brockton, I saw a billboard advertising Copeland Toyota. I dropped in and the dealer fixed the tire pressure warning light without charge. I was impressed with Copeland and began to bring my RAV4 there to have it serviced. So far, I have been very satisfied with Copeland. Although Copeland in Brockton is probably farther away than Clair in West Roxbury, I continue to go to Copeland. So far they have met all my expectations of what good service should be.
Now here is a story not related to the service I received at Copeland yesterday. Today I was driving to the veterinarian with a dog and a cat in the car. It was snowing a bit. As I turned left into the veterinarian's parking lot, a 22 year old boy in a Grand Prix wasn't watching what he was doing. He rear-ended my RAV4 and caused damage to the right rear pushing the bumper against the back tire. I was strapped in, the dog was strapped in, and the cat was in the very rear in a carrier. Luckily, I wasn't hurt, the dog and cat did not get hurt, and the driver of the Grand Prix and his passenger were not hurt. However, the Grand Prix's front end suffered substantial damage.
As a side note, I am unhappy to hear of the acceleration problems drivers of certain Toyota models are having. I hope Toyota can resolve the problem and regain Toyota lovers' trust and bragging rights about Toyota's reliability.
