Heritage Toyota Catonsville

I am married to a US State Department employee being deployed overseas. We needed a new car. I went to Russel Toyota and signed a sales contract and wrote a check for the full purchase price of the au deployed overseas. We needed a new car. I went to Russel Toyota and signed a sales contract and wrote a check for the full purchase price of the automobile, which they confirmed was deposited. I needed the paperwork done fast 9which they said they could do). After expressing my dissatisfaction I was told that I had no appreciation for the exceptions and efforts of the dealership on my behalf. Mr. Matt Bukowski told me he was rescinding our contract and sent the following E-mail: "Yes in fact we are canceling your transaction. Do to the rules that Toyota has in place about shipping a vehicle out of the country you must Title the vehicle somewhere in the USA before it leaves. The chargeback that we would get in selling you this car is not worth the business. I have contact Bank of America to refuse the wire transfer. As to your check I would suggest a spot (sic) payment on the check. If for some reason it clears our account you will have to wait an additional 10 business day to recieve (sic) your refund. There will be no fees on my end in any case. I had advised Toyota Motor Sales that you have not taken delivery of this car due to shipping reason. Toyota has a large database of people that plan to ship a car out of the country. You will be on that list now. Please tell the dealer that you plan to ship the car out of the country so they do not get the chargeback." More

This is the 4th Toyota I and My family have bought from David Day @ Russle Toyota in the past 25 yrs. All 4 vehicles (3 Camrys and 1 Corrola) attained close to 200,000 miles and 1 that was passed down to s David Day @ Russle Toyota in the past 25 yrs. All 4 vehicles (3 Camrys and 1 Corrola) attained close to 200,000 miles and 1 that was passed down to several student family members is still running at near 300,000 miles. The lack of repair work needed for these vehicles was truely astonishing! The only repairs these vehicles needed were brakes, tires, rotors, an alternator, timing belts, a window regulator-- regular wear and tear stuff. Not one of those vehicles ever had a powertrain issue. The V6 LE Camry I just traded in was 16 years young and in good running cond. I got an excellent price for it from Russle. Buying cars from David @ Russle Toyota is always a pleasure. No game playing and no feelings like you are being jerked around. I called David and left a message on his voice mail that I saw a Camry Solara online that I was interested in. When I drove up to the showroom the next day, the Solara was cleaned, turned on and ready to go! After a very quick credit check, I was handed the keys, and spent the rest of the morning driving and falling in love with the car. Prior to calling David, I researched comparable Solaras in the MD / D.C area and the Russle price was 4-5000.00 cheaper and the miles were much lower. Russle/Toyota also provided free Car Fax, 7yr 100,000 mi powertrain warranty, 1 yr bumper to bumper warranty, and 1 yr roadside assistance. Russle also provided proof of 1 car ownership and the car was in impeccable condition. The buying process took about 15 minutes and was low pressure and hassle free. I highly recommend David Day and Russle Toyota to anyone who is considering buying a Toyota. If after reading this, you like what you have read, please consider sending this to Russle's Marketing Dept. I would very much like to be considered to do a commercial for Russle Toyota!

We had an expectation and the vehicle in mind from Russel's web site, along with an excellent condition 08 Sienna to trade in. Danny respected that, didn't try to sell us something we didn't want.

Relatively straightforward purchase for a Camry XLE. I checked prices at various dealers in the area via their web sites, and Russel's was one of the best. Russel also had the best selection. Contacted Ch checked prices at various dealers in the area via their web sites, and Russel's was one of the best. Russel also had the best selection. Contacted Chris via email and visited the same day. He was very knowledgeable and helpful. No surprises on the price at all. Very smooth transaction. As usual when trading in an old car, the dealer did not agree with what I thought my old car was worth. So that part was a bit painful. But with the good price for the new car, it balanced out. Unfortunately, other Russel employees then subjected us to sitting through two separate sales pitches for the overpriced dealer add-ons (rust proofing, etc) and dealer warranties (almost 2 thousand? No thanks!) before we could finally got the car. But all-in-all, an OK experience, especially dealing with Chris. I will be going back for my next Toyota, I think. More

My 28 year old daughter was looking for a new Highlander and after several visits to other dealers had not found the deal for her. I was familiar with Russel Toyota and suggested she make the 30 mile trek and after several visits to other dealers had not found the deal for her. I was familiar with Russel Toyota and suggested she make the 30 mile trek to see if THIS dealership could offer what she needed. She arrived tired and frustrated late on a Saturday afternoon but was immediately excited by what she found. The selection at Russel was much better, including the Highlander SE she wanted, without adding in expensive extras. Even better, we liked the clean, pleasant service department and the availability of loaner cars on service days. The fact that the sales department was willing to negotiate a good price sealed the deal. The experience of accompanying my daughter as she purchased her Highlander was so pleasant that I traded in my big SUV and bought a Highlander for myself as well! This is definitely our new dealership! More
