They were very considerate and did their best to get the price i wanted. As soon as i walked through the door they were friendly and willing to help me. The price was a bit higher than i would have liked price i wanted. As soon as i walked through the door they were friendly and willing to help me.

Penn was the 4th Toyota dealer we visited to buy a new 2010 Sienna and the last one we needed to visit. They got us 2010 Sienna with all of the features we wanted and more for the price we wanted to pay. 2010 Sienna and the last one we needed to visit. They got us 2010 Sienna with all of the features we wanted and more for the price we wanted to pay. They gave us a great price, one that was lower than the other 3 Toyota dealers we visited, and one that we did not even have to haggle for. The people we dealt with were knowledgeable, honest, direct, and pleasant. We made a deal with another dealer for a 2010 Sienna (with a down payment); however, over 3 weeks passed and they claimed they could not locate a car. That's when we went to Penn, they too did not have the 2010 Sienna that we wanted in stock; however, they got one for us with 5 days! We cannot sing their praises enough, we will always recommend friends and family to visit Penn and we are sure our next car will come form them too! More

This is the absolute WORST DEALERSHIP I have ever bought a car from in my life. They are completely incompetent and they are total liars. It is disgraceful the way they treat their customers. If I didn't lo a car from in my life. They are completely incompetent and they are total liars. It is disgraceful the way they treat their customers. If I didn't love the car I bought (which had a million issues with it that they didn't even check before they sold it to us including the DVD player not working, the radio not working correctly) we would have returned the car immediately. I have never written to complain about a company ever before in my life but I beg you to stay away from them. They are the WORST. Please learn from our mistakes. Go to any other dealership. These people have no heart or clue. More

PENN TOYOTA TESTIMONIAL I just picked up the 7th car PENN TOYOTA TESTIMONIAL I just picked up the 7th car that I have purchased over the past 20 years from Penn Toyota, a 2010 PENN TOYOTA TESTIMONIAL I just picked up the 7th car that I have purchased over the past 20 years from Penn Toyota, a 2010 Camry XLE. I keep coming back to Penn Toyota because: 1) The Toyota car is great, in its drive, physicality and reliability. 2) The price is always fair - this has been determined via comparison shopping and various websites that indicate the reasonable purchase price for an auto. 3) The Sales Staff is always knowledgeable, professional and courteous. 4) The showroom is clean and presentable Having purchased so many Toyotas before, I knew exactly what I wanted. As it turned out, the model I wanted now came with several additional major features -- leather seats and sun roof, which I was not interested in and did not want to pay for. Penn Toyota priced the car as I wanted it and intended to try to find it at an out of state dealership and if that didn’t work, have a car built to my specifications - it would take about a month. How can a dealership be more accommodating! Unfortunately, the car I wanted was not available elsewhere and I decided not to wait for the car to be manufactured. I renegotiated the price in five minutes over the phone and picked up the car three days later – never was there a hard sell – the staff listened to my needs/desires and worked with me. As is human, there was one minor misstep, but Penn Toyota immediately owned up to it, apologized, and worked conscientiously to remedy the issue. When I came to pick up the car, the salesman took ALL the time in the world (and the dealership was inordinately busy at the time) to carefully walk me through the entire car, explaining how everything worked and detailing each new feature. The final paper work for the actual purchase was clear, concise and organized. I left Penn Toyota with my new car, comfortable that I had made all the right decisions and that I had a friend in this Dealership. The entire sales staff, right up to the President, Bob Penn and his son, Chris Penn (the Sales Manager), work together as a team to assure the best possible experience. When I was speaking with someone in the showroom about how satisfied I always am with this Organization, another client overheard the conversation, and interrupted to say he lives in Brooklyn, but he, too, always comes out to Penn Toyota in Greenvale LI to buy his Toyotas - that is as good a testimonial as one can get - surely Brooklyn has ample Toyota dealers.

Stay away from this dealership! After 2 hours of negotiating, the manager, Frank, accepted my offer for monthly payments & out of pocket expenses, if my credit checked out. All of this information negotiating, the manager, Frank, accepted my offer for monthly payments & out of pocket expenses, if my credit checked out. All of this information was written on the form they fill out when you initially walk in. After several reassurances that they would stick with the 2 figures written on the form, I signed it, giving them approval to check my credit. Frank came back to me and said my credit was great--in fact it was over 800. However, he changed the 2 figures, adding $30 to the monthly payment and $400 to the out of pocket expenses. I was obviously confused, and relayed my confusion to both Frank & the salesperson. I stated that I only gave them access to my financial information based on the deal we negotiated. The manager stated that he could give me the lower amount on the monthly payments OR the out of pocket expenses, but not on both. I asked why I was not told that before--in fact what I was told was that my credit score would affect the deal and no other factor. When I relayed this to Frank, his words verbatim were, "did we say "we promise" you these numbers?" I said, "no, however, I was told the credit check was being done because our "aim" was to get me those negotiated amounts." Frank stated, "we choose our words wisely, we never said "we promise." As a teacher I run some business ethics units in my courses. I told Frank that my experience at Penn would make a great story when I teach my ethics unit. He asked me to discuss that for a moment and explain how he was unethical. I told him that I signed approval for a credit check under the words of the salesman when he said, "these are the numbers we are aiming at..." Frank then reiterated that they did say the word "promise" and that I should rethink the way I teach my courses. I simply suggested that he go back to school and learn some ethics himself and walked out. If you choose to go to this dealership even after reading this...be careful...they certainly do "choose their words wisely." PS....I did ask if I could take the form with my personal information on it with me and was told no.....that is the form that had the negotiated prices on it as well. I did however cross out my social security # & signature. Please make sure you do the same! More

Penn Toyota made a mistake by submitting our brand new Toyota car loan request to Chase instead of Toyota finance, as discussed before the purchase. Penn Toyota admitted the mistake but were not able to c Toyota car loan request to Chase instead of Toyota finance, as discussed before the purchase. Penn Toyota admitted the mistake but were not able to correct it (“too late”). Bottom line, after months of misleading and half answers (if and when we were able to get to talk to someone which is not “busy”) we are paying 4% more than was promised. No apology, no one to handle this problem, basically their attitude is: “sign here and disappear”. More

Last month I purchased a used - 2004 Avalon from this dealer and the experience turned out to be horrible. The Manager Frank was very very rude from the moment we entered their showrroom. However, the p dealer and the experience turned out to be horrible. The Manager Frank was very very rude from the moment we entered their showrroom. However, the price was good and that was the only reason we continued with them. They were in a way forcing us to take the car the same day we made the deal. When we said that we are financing with someone else, the manager said that the next day car is going for auction. And when we agreed to finance with them, they said that we can take the car on the following day. The worst part was when we took the car the next day. We had only driven two miles,when the AIR BAG LIGHTS started flashing and when we took it to them, they did not even respond properly. They did show no remorse or concern. They asked us to leave the car and come and take it when it is ready. We travelled from East Windsor, NJ to Long Island NY just to take the car. What we expected was atleast they could take some steps linke calling any of the dealers in our area. They didn't help us in anyway. On top of it, the customer service representative (I don't remember her name) was making harsh statements. Then we had to leave and we waited for one full week, with all the payment made, just to get the car. The most ridiculous thing was that the manager said that as a compensation, he would fill the gas tank full which is $50 worth. But, when we again went there we saw that the tank was not full. But we didn't want to talk with them any further and just wanted to get rid of them. So, we took the car and left the place. I WOULD NEVER NEVER RECOMMEND THIS DEALER TO ANY OF FRIENDS, NOT EVEN TO MY FOES. More

Went in for a specific car. They pulled the old bate and switch. The salesman Andre told us it had been sold but a slightly more expensive model was still available. They would not negotiate a thing. We tho switch. The salesman Andre told us it had been sold but a slightly more expensive model was still available. They would not negotiate a thing. We thought made this is normal trying to buy a fuel efficient car right now. The first time we came to pick up the car, on the way to the dealership we received a call from Andre that the car wouldn't be ready. We gave them until 7pm that night. We would pick it up after work to give them more time. The first thing we noticed we driving into Penn Toyota was the original car we came to look at. It was still on the last, still for sale. We asked about ans they stuck to their original story of it being sold. It was with all the cars that were still on the market with no sold sign. After doing paperwork we inspect the vehicle. It has a new huge dent/scratch in it and what looks like a coffee stain on the front seat. Andre is nasty and says that it was always there. I tell him certified pre-owned vehicles should still look like new. He tells me I'm out of luck. I get a manager, a guy by the name Bruce. He is cold but polite. Issues a we owe for the work. Says they will fix it Monday. The next day the a check engine light comes on. I speak with Lori who is as rude as Andre. Never Again! More

My 2007 Avalon needed the 1 year service (14,000) miles, they sold me $400. worth of work I didn't need. I get the car home and the dash lights up like christmas Check enging VSC and more. I call they tell they sold me $400. worth of work I didn't need. I get the car home and the dash lights up like christmas Check enging VSC and more. I call they tell me they must have left it in "test Mode" I bring it back They tell me now an O2 sensor is bad and I'll have to leave the car. After much talk they get a xxx econo box, it's check engine light was on too. I bring them a car that's got no problems, they break it, I have to make two more trips back, I lose use of the car for 4 days and they offer to change the oil next time for free. I may be picky but that's not customer service. More
