NEVER SEEING ME AGAIN! I came to the facility in November for a synthetic oil change I have 80,000 miles on my Camry, and the oil change is suppose to last me 10,000 miles o I came to the facility in November for a synthetic oil change I have 80,000 miles on my Camry, and the oil change is suppose to last me 10,000 miles or 1 year, whichever comes first. I should've known something was off when I was there for only 30mins and my car was "finished" before everyone else that was before me. I assumed they were all getting other/more work done on their vehicles. I noticed that the sticker they put on the window of my car said that I should come back at 90,000 milage for a servicing. So in April (5 months later/about 4,000 miles driven) i went for servicing, they told me that i actually didn't need to be back until November and that my car was in good shape. They made me wait 2 hrs to give me my car back, and then they changed the sticker on my window to read 95,000. That same week my car started to make rattling noises when i turned corners or accelerated, most importantly my car started to turn off as i decreased speed, as I stopped at stop signs or even red lights! I panicked and went to a mechanic that i knew, and thank goodness i did, because my car refused to turn back on when it was at his shop. I insisted that it couldn't be my oil because i'm not due for one until another 5,000 miles. Nonetheless he ignore the sticker and me and checked it anyway. It was dryer than a desert, one one drop of oil was in my engine. He legit wiped the oil stick on his arm to show that it was not low, but EMPTY!!!! He added oil and my car thankfully turned back on. But the lack of oil for so long had already done its damage. My car was inches away from being ruined because this facility did NOT give me an oil change. What type of imbecilic mistake is that??? Were you working on so many cars at the same time that my car wasn't good enough to be replenished with oil???... So my car was running on....mercy.... for 4,000 miles until it just couldn't handle it anymore because of this facility. I feel taken advantage of and disrespected!... Now I have a mechanics bill that i can't even afford to pay for in repairs!!! Spare yourself the headache and possibility that this could happen to you. Go to a different branch or place entirely to get an oil change. More
Amazing! I've been going to 355 for over 10 years and purchased many cars as well as referring people there. I really only have gone to PJ for purchase, Navid I've been going to 355 for over 10 years and purchased many cars as well as referring people there. I really only have gone to PJ for purchase, Navid for finance and Bobby for maintenance. Can't get better, more reliable people!! Great deals and I don't have to deal with the BS that comes with buying a car! More

I had an AMAZING experience with Ismael! I had such a great experience working with Ismael. He made the entire process worry free, by communicating with me through each step. I had such a smo I had such a great experience working with Ismael. He made the entire process worry free, by communicating with me through each step. I had such a smooth transaction, it was as if I was just shopping at a store, but this time for a luxury car. I came to the dealership not knowing what to expect and left in a luxury SUV that I love. I have already referred Ismael to a friend of mine who recently got married. Him and his wife will be looking for new vehicles very soon. I told them to go straight Ismael and anyone of his wonderful colleagues. Alex in finance is also really great and funny, he made that process easy and pain free. Great work! Thank you soo much Ismael, 10 stars! More
Satisfied Toyota Owner! My son and I have had our 2005 RAV4s serviced at DARCARS in Rockville for over 7 years. We both like dealing with their service department. So, when My son and I have had our 2005 RAV4s serviced at DARCARS in Rockville for over 7 years. We both like dealing with their service department. So, when I needed to trade in my car with manual transmission for an automatic(having knee-replacement surgery this spring), I wanted to purchase a newer used car from this dealership because of my history with them. PJ and Peter showed me several RAV4s, and I found a 2012 that I liked. They worked with me, gave me a good deal, and I drove it off the lot that afternoon. The car runs great, even though I seriously miss my stick shift! When you go to this dealer, I highly recommend working with PJ and Peter. I sensed they were going to do the right thing by me, and they did! Thank you. More
Good experience buying a truck! I visited the 355 Toyota Scion last Friday. Caesar, my sales associate, showed me the trucks in stock. They were all good, but not what I was lookin I visited the 355 Toyota Scion last Friday. Caesar, my sales associate, showed me the trucks in stock. They were all good, but not what I was looking for. Caesar listened to what I wanted and told me he would continue searching. Three days later, Caesar called to say he thought he found my truck. He was right! PJ Mehta made sure it fit in my budget and then had the truck detailed. Alex, in Finance, made the paperwork easy. In just hours after receiving the call, I was happily driving home with my truck. I will definitely return to 355 Toyota Scion when I need another vehicle. More

I wa As a first time buyer I was very impressed with the service that was provided from the time that I walked in the door until the time that I left. I was not feeling very confident that I would be able to purchase a vehicle and the team at 355 Toyota made this happen. While choosing 355 Toyota to purchase a car and everyone was extremely helpful, I worked closely with PJ. More

Dealership stripped drain plug and stuck me with $600 bill We purchased a maintenance plan with the vehicle we bought new and been in regularly for service. We pay about $10 for an oil change with the plan, wh We purchased a maintenance plan with the vehicle we bought new and been in regularly for service. We pay about $10 for an oil change with the plan, which is the only reason why we continue to go here. This most recent time we dropped off the car and were called about an hour later by the service adviser notifying that the drain plug was worn, oil leaking, and that the oil change could not be done unless the drain plug and pan were replaced. Charged $600 for this! This dealership (and Darcars Frederick, same parent company) are the only ones to ever do oil changes on the car. I believe a technician at the dealership stripped the drain plug by over torquing or cross threading the plug. There had never been an oil leak from the car on our driveway or garage. The drain plug does not wear down when you drive, but only if removed or installed improperly before and after an oil change. Service manager was of no help and claims that it is normal wear and tear. The customer relations representative told me the same and that it could have happened anytime after the last oil change. Not sure how this happens since the drain plug does not wear when you drive. She told me nothing can be done and that the bill is what it is and did not try to make things right. Avoid this dealership!! More
