Poor customer service I walked into this dealer with a $50k check in my pocket. I knew exactly what I wanted, they had it in stock but when meeting the sales manager he did I walked into this dealer with a $50k check in my pocket. I knew exactly what I wanted, they had it in stock but when meeting the sales manager he did not ask for my name or look me in the eye when he introduced himself. The sales manager was in too big of hurry to get home to enjoy his Friday afternoon that he actually told me we had to go our separate ways when it started to look like our negotiation would go past 5 o'clock. Thankfully Seeger Toyota had the same vehicle in stock. More
Lies, False Advertisement, Unethical Behavior In early December, I was searching for an inexpensive commuter car for work. I found that Pappas Toyota had an Echo for sale on their webpage. I spo In early December, I was searching for an inexpensive commuter car for work. I found that Pappas Toyota had an Echo for sale on their webpage. I spoke to an online sales representative named Corey Miller regarding the vehicle. This conversation lasted over an hour and included topics such as vehicle condition, price, and delivery. Corey stated that the vehicle was in ‘very good shape inside and out.’ This was also stated in the online description of the vehicle. Corey said the price was negotiable. I told him a specific maximum amount that I would be willing to pay for the car and asked if it would be worth my time to come in. I was told come on in. Upon arrival, I was told Corey wasn’t even a sales representative and was handed off to another sales person named Jessica Vargas. When I was shown the car it was obvious that it’s condition was FAR from the advertised/stated ‘very good shape inside and out.’ The vehicle had large dents all over the roof, many small dents on the hood and sides, scratches everywhere, and bald tires. I cited the items to Jessica and stated that their description online and by Corey was blatantly false advertisement. Their requested price was way too high. Even my highest offer was too high for it. After the test drive, I offered a couple hundred dollars lower than the max offer I stated before showing up. Jessica blew me off and started walking away. I told her she needed to submit the offer to the sales manager before denying it. After a long wait, I was given a counter offer of the full price of the car. This was far higher than the max price I told Corey online. The price where he said it wouldn’t be a waste of my time to come in. Needless to say, when Jessica gave presented it to me, I was a little aggravated. I asked to speak with the sales manager to discuss why I was told the above by Corey and the false advertisement. The manager stated the price was negotiable in that the tow off the lot would be given free. That was a $20 value. He then dismissed the false advertisement saying that’s how they do business. So, not only was I lied to, but the trip was a complete waste of my time. The only good thing of the event was the fact they had a promotion where you would receive a $25 gift card for test driving a car. I gave the manager the paperwork and he said I would receive it in 7-10 days. After a month of waiting, I inquired online with Corey about the gift card. I was told that my address was missing (LIE). I asked to speak with the person who told him that. Several requests later, I was finally given a phone number. I called and spoke with Corey’s manager, Matthew, explaining the issue and asking why I was lied to. His response was that the gift card was being sent and then he hung up on me. I called back seeking clarification as to why the card wasn’t sent out and if he had the form in front of him. He said he processes the gift cards and never saw it. He even went so far as to say it was probably intentionally thrown away by the sales manager I spoke with when I did my test drive. So, not only did I catch them in the missing address lie, he very clearly stated that it was most likely thrown away by their management. Clearly that would’ve been a breach of the terms and conditions of the promotion. Another term would be illegal. Matthew hung up on me several more times before transferring me to another sales manager named Glenn Ritter. Glenn immediately talked down to me and even called me several names. He did not care about the company’s actions or their false advertisement. He even taunted me saying to call a lawyer. My overall experience and the undisputable unethical behavior of the Pappas Toyota management are truly appalling. I am a veteran and I have never been treated with such disrespect. No one should give this company business. More
4 Runner - hail damage repair I normally don't write reviews. However, I feel compelled to do this. Rob Callahan in the collision department went above and beyond and really care I normally don't write reviews. However, I feel compelled to do this. Rob Callahan in the collision department went above and beyond and really cares about his customers. I also need to give a shout out to Megan Smith in car sales. Megan is excellent to work with. I highly recommend this dealership and most of the reason is due to the great people that work there. More

Unbelievable Misconduct and Misrepresentation of a Sale. I've leased three cars from Pappas Toyota. About 6 months from my most recent leases end I received an invitation from the dealer via mail. It said I've leased three cars from Pappas Toyota. About 6 months from my most recent leases end I received an invitation from the dealer via mail. It said they wanted to buy my car because they needed used vehicles. Jessica helped me find a Prius at the right payment and signed another lease. About three weeks later, I was surprised to receive a bill from Toyota for a milage overage just over two hundred dollars. I tried calling the general manager twice and left messages of my concern. I received no reply to date. I filed a complaint via Toyota Customer Care who referred the matter to the dealers "Customer Care Manager", Mike Pappas. I have not received a call from him either. I reached out to Jessica, my sales consultant, who (per the sales manager) got on the phone with Toyota financial to try to get the fee waived. The representative advised that they don't waive lease end charges but also mentioned that there "wouldn't be any fees if the car had be paid off instead of processed as a return". It sounded like she hadn't seen this often since she stated "which is somewhat odd, since I see you have another lease from the dealer". Curious, I thought that's what happened when I got a new car too? It's been a "key swap" with every one of my 11 leases. I have never taken a lease to term or paid any "after the fact" fees. Her statement caused me concerned about the handling of my trade and subsequent purchase. Jessica referred my concerns and dissatisfaction to her Sales manager, Tim. It was nice of him to tell me how he handles his leases and how the value just wasn't there in the car because gas was cheap. Unfortunately, he may not have been listening to my concerns or reason I was contesting the way the transaction was handled. I was informed during this call that, unbenounced to me - they processed the car as a lease return instead of a payoff. This resulted in termination of the contract early so they could pay Toyota financial less than a full payoff.. "That's what would need to be done, because the depreciation was so poorly calculated." I was told. I remains unclear to me how I would understand the implications of this, since it wasn't discussed with me. I thought the car was being purchased, which would end the lease contract and negate milage or other ancillary costs such as a disposition fee (oddly that was waived). They pulled a payoff and I brought in a payoff statement from TFS' website. I was told they didn't need a payoff copy because they had access to all the information from Toyota Financial. Before this, each time I ended a lease early to get in another car - the dealer took care to properly process the termination of the prior agreement. Ive never experienced misrepresentation or miscommunication of the sale/trade intentions. According to the sales manager I should have made that assumption that there would be more fees and that regardless of any misunderstanding the dealer was not taking responsibility for my failure to do so. I feel due to the circumstances described, I should not be liable for these charges. It seems wrong that it's ok for misrepresentation to go without consequence, otherwise I wouldn't be this adament. If I ran my business this way, I would be seeking employment in short order. If you are considering a purchase or lease at this dealer, It may be in your best interest to take extraordinary care to understand every aspect of the transaction. Also be wary of cues that may bring about concerns that business is not being conducted ethically. If you don't, my experience with Pappas management team thus far is a resounding "buyer beware". I'm a reasonable and understanding person. People do make mistakes. The measure bring missed here is taking responsibility and resolving issues regarding the customers satisfaction, earning loyalty and encouraging word-of-mouth referrals. I would welcome any genuine efforts to resolve this open matter. 4/28 I received a reply from an anonymous sender today. The summary, it's my problem and i knew what was being done. Laughable. Here is my reply: I assure you no-one advised me that they were "just making payments". I have never even heard of that. As for nothing to do with the way it was processed - every other lease I've had has been PAID OFF meaning I never heard from TFS/LFS except for a payoff letter regardless of the contract - because it was void due to the payoff of the vehicle. As stated before the sales consultant printed and showed me a payoff statement and i got my own from TFS... why else would we do that if only the total of the payments was being made? The logic is flawed, and just doesn't make sense. This is clearly the result of manipulating the process to avoid paying out the lease. It's deceptive, wasn't communicated to me in any way, and has clearly resulted in a horrible customer experience over less than $210. At this point, I am not even interested in explanations, admissions or even an apology. It's unfortunate for me that there is no empathy with the distress this is causing me, and understand I wouldn't keep on this if I didn't truly feel it wasn't a valid concern. Miscommunication or not - take care of your customers. More
