Concord Toyota - Service Center

Good workmanship but I question the amount of work I have a 2008 Highlander with 106,000 miles. I noted that there was a rattling sound coming from the drive belt assembly area. A neighbor of mine is a I have a 2008 Highlander with 106,000 miles. I noted that there was a rattling sound coming from the drive belt assembly area. A neighbor of mine is a retired Toyota mechanic and he used a stethoscope-type device to isolate the sound. His diagnosis was that the tension pulley wheel bearings were failing. When I took it in to Concord Toyota for my appointment and have the sound diagnosed again, they stated it was the water pump. Now I have a quandary...who to believe. I also was going on a trip in a week and needed the car in safe driving condition. I could have said thanks, please do not do the work and then take it to a 3rd mechanic to get the problem diagnosed. But I opted for expediency, and had Toyota do the work. I got a call back an hour later, also telling me that the drive belt was showing signs of wear and tear and it should be replaced....sure, fix that, too. Upon picking up the car, I asked to speak with the customer service rep who checked me in. I waited quite a while but he never showed. You would think that for an expensive repair like this, that I would get more prompt service and information from the customer service rep. I would also expect that I should be shown the condition of the old drive belt as proof that the belt needed to be replaced. Regarding the tension pulley wheel, it looked like they either replaced it or adjusted it (though my mechanic friend said that it is a spring loaded assembly and cannot be tightened). The car performed normally on the trip, the following week, and there was no sound coming from the belt assembly area. So did I pay for extra work that was not needed at this time and were they honest in their diagnosis of my engine problem? This is the first time I have questioned the reliability of Toyota's diagnoses....not their work. One might consider this repair work to be pre-emptive, judging by the age of the car. I just question Toyota's honesty in dealing with me. More

Very courteous staff. Every time I have my car serviced the staff is very courteous and accommodating. I had to change my appt. time and they squeezed me in the next day.

It's exactly what every customer expect to get when they go in for a service. As for the other dealer at Lake Norman, LOL they don't even come close. You have to buy breakfast from them. 55555555555555 More
