I bought this dealer lease truck, it was a test car and even so it was very expensive. I no longer needed it and returned it 2 months early. I paid the money to the dealer on the day I delivered it, but More

Rauf, we're truly sorry for the experience you had in closing out your lease. Unfortunately, there were additional signatures needed by Toyota, as well as fees for exceeding the allotted mileage, etc. If I may clarify any details for you, please feel free to contact me at your convenience. I'm here to help. Vincent Nguyen Sales Manager Lia Toyota of Colonie vnguyen@liacars.com 518-374-3700 x2253

Don't worry, I sent the complaint email below to Toyota USA. and I wanted a detailed review. What you are doing is fraud! I will do my best to prevent people from buying a vehicle from you! This company manager is misinforming people and lying! The invoice asks me for money for early delivery and wear and tear! They sold me a lot of insurance when they gave me the vehicle! The damage has already been covered by insurance! They want extra money from me! They also charge auction fees! They're a joke! They take money from insurance, ask for extra money from me, and then they put the vehicle up for auction and ask for extra money from me! This is literally fraud! Why didn't the insurance you sold me cover these damages? Why didn't you send me a report about this? What do you mean by wear and tear? Why wasn't this report sent to me? You are sending an invoice without providing this information, this is a fraud! I had a lease Toyota Tacoma vehicle and I returned it. The vehicle had many insurances such as minor and any damage, but the invoice I was sent was an exaggerated invoice! Why didn't you claim the vehicle wear and tear from the insurance company? If the insurance couldn't cover these, why did you sell me insurance? This is literally cheating. I tried to contact Lia Toyota Colonie NY about this invoice, but they made an excuse for Miles. No, most of this invoice is stated as vehicle wear and tear and they do not give details. I want a detailed invoice!I regret buying a vehicle from you and I will do my best to tell everyone I know to stay away from your dealers and vehicles!Why didn't insurance cover these depreciations? I want a detailed technical review report on this, it is my right!Because the person who sold me the vehicle said that it would cover such wear and tear and minor damages and sold an insurance while leasing for the vehicle!Why didn't this insurance cover these depreciations?I am sending the invoice and waiting for detailed information from you. This is my legal right! Rauf ziya
