We did not have a good experience at this dealership. I made it clear to them that I'd like to do some research before buying. I was told that they would be interested in buying my trade in even if I did n made it clear to them that I'd like to do some research before buying. I was told that they would be interested in buying my trade in even if I did not buy a car from them but came back with a ridiculous trade in value. We worked with Pavel who seemed nice and fairly knowledgeable and he showed us a few cars. We then test drove one but it had a large mileage and the price was high. We said we would have to think about it. Pavel then called his manager (John) who tried to pressure us into buying the car we drove. Pavel also said he did not sell many cars this month. I found the experience to be bad and not helpful. More
Pleasure to do business with. Sales rep (Marcos) was knowledgeable, curtious, follow up was excellent. Marcos made a point of showing us the features of the car, including a second test drive he sugges knowledgeable, curtious, follow up was excellent. Marcos made a point of showing us the features of the car, including a second test drive he suggested to point out answers to some of our questions. After we purshased the car, he made a point of helping us to set up our bluetooth, program radio, etc. He took us through the car in detail from the trunk to the dash so we were really prepare to drive out of the showroom. Finance manager was also very helpful throughout the registration process. Good stock of cars to chose from. Everyone pleasant and helpful. More
Letter sent to manager: 4/21/11 Dear Mr. Gregoire: Letter sent to manager: 4/21/11 Dear Mr. Gregoire: I like many people hate the thought of buying a new car. I always feel like it's a game and Letter sent to manager: 4/21/11 Dear Mr. Gregoire: I like many people hate the thought of buying a new car. I always feel like it's a game and that somehow I will lose. I made several trips to my local Toyota dealership (Ira/Milford) and never felt comfortable dealing with them. On a whim, I emailed your dealership (along with several others). Brandon replied promptly and was a pleasure to deal with. I should note that not one other dealership replied, and I was a buyer ready to purchase if I could make the right deal (and I knew exactly what I wanted). I put $1000 down on the car that evening, sight unseen, after just a couple emails. I was nervous coming in the next day because I figured while we had worked out much of the deal by email, the old bait and switch tactic would be pulled. I was greeted warmly by Pavel and he treated me with respect and courtesy the entire time I was at your dealership. The deal discussed by email was honored and the entire experience was better than I could have ever imagined. Pavel, Rob and even the other salesmen walking by were wonderful to me. Heck, they even fed me pizza and coke as I waited for insurance paperwork and a new license plate :) I only briefly met the service department but I was impressed with the way it is run. Overall I cannot thank you and your team enough for such an EXCELLENT buying experience. I have told many people how well it worked out. I thank you so much for this. It is my first time buying a car on my own and now I know there is a good dealership out there. I will be giving everyone EXCELLENTS on the survey I receive. I really was impressed. Pavel was truly a great guy to deal with so please pass on my thanks to him. More
Marcos was great. He was relaxed, friendly, no high pressure sales. He had the car ready for me when I arrived. After I bought the car, I returned a couple of days later to pick up the plates and men pressure sales. He had the car ready for me when I arrived. After I bought the car, I returned a couple of days later to pick up the plates and mentioned that I hadn't realized, but the rear seat was missing one of the headrests. Marcos didn't blink, he went out to the lot, found a matching headrest and put it on. I'd gladly recommend Marcos and Bernardi Toyota in general. More

No other dealer can compare to them. If I was the owner I'd be proud to have them to having them working for me. The place was clean, staff were professional, lounge/waiting area clean & fresh food/drinks, the lot & cars clean, and the restroom clean, child area clean & items for activity efficient, the staff look neat & professional, and overall from 1-5 I rate 10! I wish the Dearler & family a much success... Regards, Veronica Colon More
Everything went excellent! My sales person Jessica was not pushy and very helpful through every part of the process. We had been looking at the Highlander for several months and Jessica gave us everythin not pushy and very helpful through every part of the process. We had been looking at the Highlander for several months and Jessica gave us everything we were looking for to make the leap to get the purchase. I really appreciated the extra steps she took with setting up my bluetooth and the walk through for service appointments and where everything was at the dealership was very helpful and not something we have had before when purchasing a vehicle. I would reccomend Bernardi and Jessica with no hesitation! More
The sales person (Ron) who helped us was understanding of our needs. He listened to what we needed in a vehicle and answered all our questions. The sales manager was also very helpful and accommodating. Eve our needs. He listened to what we needed in a vehicle and answered all our questions.

I interacted with a new sales person by the name of Pavel. He was a good listener and tried to answer any question or concerns I had to the best of his ability. I then interacted with Mr. Garcia (Mi Pavel. He was a good listener and tried to answer any question or concerns I had to the best of his ability. I then interacted with Mr. Garcia (Miguel) who was the Used Car Manager. I had some verbal requests in which they were all addressed by him and eventually I picked up the car. On the same day of the pickup, I noticed an issue from driving on the highway which had not been noticed before, and again, Miguel was very proactive in listening to my concern and having the issue addressed. For this issue, the car was going have to stay for a couple of days and Mr. Garcia instantly made arrangements for my having a free car rental for the duration. Over-all, I have no apprehension of recommending this dealership to anyone interested in the purchase of a car, given my positive interaction with both the sales individual as well as his manager.

These guys charged me $90 just to hook my car up to a diagnostic reader to begin discovering what was wrong with my car. You can buy your own diagnostic meter for about $70 a Sears or any auto hardware s diagnostic reader to begin discovering what was wrong with my car. You can buy your own diagnostic meter for about $70 a Sears or any auto hardware store. Then they replaced my thermostat and charged me more than $200 for parts and labor, when what I needed was a new catalytic converter. After four visits to get my inspection sticker approved, I finally wound up going to Boch Toyota in Norwood. They immediately discovered the problem and fixed it for $700. I called Bernardi to find out how much they would have charged me and they said $1,400. On top of that experience, they tried to sell my son a car that they said was in perfect condition and had never been in an accident. I found a long crack along the underside of the body upon inspection, which the salesman brushed off as minor damage. We again ended up going to another dealership and were very satisfied. There ya go. Do not go to this dealership. More
Salesman was very cocky and disrespectful - didn't want to bother his sales managers with a number until I signed to a price that I was willing to pay. He told me his relationship with the sales managers to bother his sales managers with a number until I signed to a price that I was willing to pay. He told me his relationship with the sales managers was important to him and didn't want to keep bothering them until I signed. Told me that I would get 1.9% then said the sales manager overrode him and it was 1.9% for 36 months not the 60 that he quoted me. I had purchased extras to be installed the following week along with an inspection sticker. When I showed up for my appt. I was told that due to the impending snow storm they wouldn't be working??? I had to get very angry and speak with a service manager named Sal just to get an inspection sticker on my new vehicle - when I had mentioned to the service dept that it was illegal for me to drive the car without an inspection sticker I was told that it was my problem. When I went back the following week to finally have the extras installed, again, no appointment. I waited 30 minutes to speak with a manager or someone at the dealership that would take responsibility and finally left. The business manager called me and was very apologetic, blaming it on the salesman; she ended up bringing a rental to my house and taking my car back to have all extras installed. Michelle is definitely trying to make up for such a negative experience but I would never recommend this dealership. More
