BAIT AND SWITCH is the best way to describe my buying experience at Downtown Toyota of Oakland. I wish I had read some of the reviews and warnings before I came to this dealership. I saw the ad for a use experience at Downtown Toyota of Oakland. I wish I had read some of the reviews and warnings before I came to this dealership. I saw the ad for a used RAV4 Hybrid from CARFAX and thought the price was a good deal. I figured CARFAX is a trusted company and I could trust this place. That was my first mistake. When I got there, I was told that the price had been reduced by a $1,000. I thought wow, great! My second mistake was not walking away as soon as I was told that because they added some outside and inside protection to the car so that it’s protected from all kinds of weather, the price is now $4,000 more. Really? After going back and forth multiple times, I was told they would deduct $2,000 from the new price but that I would be happy with the protection. My biggest mistake was in the end, I got worn out and ended up buying the car with $3,000+ added "stuff" which were not even itemized on the contract. There was also no warranty at all and I had to negotiate for a better warranty pricing. AND as soon as I left the dealership, I had to find the nearest gas station because the gas warning light came on and when I called to ask why it was empty, I was told that they only put gas in brand new cars. But no gas at all? There’s so many other Toyota dealerships. Avoid this one. More
**CREDIT CHECK REQUIRED BEFORE YOU CAN SEE/TEST DRIVE CARS** I am first time car buyer with excellent credit and headed to Downtown Toyota with the intention of buying my first car. I made an appointm CARS** I am first time car buyer with excellent credit and headed to Downtown Toyota with the intention of buying my first car. I made an appointment in advance and was instructed to ask for a specific salesperson when I arrived. Upon arrival, I was rushed inside to get my temperature taken while at least 3 employees walked around without masks. I was then helped by someone who was not the salesperson assigned to me over the phone. After completing a lengthy questionnaire and being transparent about what I was looking for, the salesman took my paperwork to the manager and returned asking to run a credit check before I could see or test drive cars. This is a strange request and I have never experienced this at other dealerships. I am curious to know if this is the treatment all customers receive or just black women? This is a predatory environment and I would not recommend visiting this dealership to anyone. More

Absolute garbage and lies. Drove one hour to look at a car and didnt let us test drive a porsche or even open the doors to let us look at the interiors. Expecting us to buy cars without driving them. car and didnt let us test drive a porsche or even open the doors to let us look at the interiors. Expecting us to buy cars without driving them. I would trust this dealer for anything. Hope they go bankrupt and shutdown. More

Dishonest Dealer using deceit and pressure to sell cars I was in the market for a new Toyota and looked into price and car availability at a few Bay Area Toyota dealers. Toyota of Oakland had the car I want I was in the market for a new Toyota and looked into price and car availability at a few Bay Area Toyota dealers. Toyota of Oakland had the car I wanted but unfortunately ended up dealing with Shiloh Lewis and his sales manager Omar Aslami. I think these two guys wrote the book on shading tactics in the old dealer handbook. During my customer experience they: retract quoted pricing, misrepresented inventory, resorted to high pressure sales tactics and lots of wasted time filled with endless excuses and game playing. In the age of online car shopping and transparent consumer reviews there are lots of dealerships willing to give you an honest and straight forward shopping experience and unfortunately Downtown Oakland is not one them.

Dealership is a Scam- Nick Abassi is even worst !!!!!!!!EXPOSING BAD BUSINESS!!!!! IF you chose to go to this dealership, during the time that you sign your final paperwork (the contract), MAKE S !!!!!!!!EXPOSING BAD BUSINESS!!!!! IF you chose to go to this dealership, during the time that you sign your final paperwork (the contract), MAKE SURE ALL THE OPTIONAL items are $0! Sales/Finance will trick you in to buying it, they will even say, if you do not get the after market parts, then don't buy the car from their dealership As soon as you sign the paperwork. ONLY the warranty is refundable. Page 2/7 of your contract! Make sure Item D (1-3),E(1) and I(1-3) are all $0 these items are: Nitro for your tire $399 LoJack : $1495 Footprint : $399 Ciljet : $1995 Warranty : $4650 Invisible bra : $1095 If the finance tells you that your car "COMES with it" it is NOT TRUE. You are paying for it with a 30-45% mark up. You will walk out of the dealership with a bill that is $6000 more than what you agreed on. about $10,000-12,000 more if you got tricked in to getting extended warranty. SALES here makes "bonus" based on the aftermarket items (the optional items mentioned above) the dealership puts on your car. They make their money from service and when you let them work on your car. DONT LET THEM DO THAT. Nick Abassi is basically everything horrible you can imagine in a human. but I wont waste your time by telling you all how horrible he is- he is insulting, degrading, uneducated, and disgusting. He will do anything to justify what he is doing is "good business" More
