You might expect a car company’s top priority to be cars, but not at Toyota of the Desert. To us, people are number one (though cars are still a close second).
That’s why our favorite three words are We Hear You. They say so much without us having to say much at all. When we listen to our customers and put their needs first, quality vehicle selection, fair prices, reliable service, and a welcoming environment are all a given.

When buying a car from a dealership, ask yourself this before you sign on the dotted line: Do I feel good about the experience I just had? Will I be able to look at this car after this purchase and not before you sign on the dotted line: Do I feel good about the experience I just had? Will I be able to look at this car after this purchase and not get a knot in my stomach because I signed a deal where I knew the dealership was pulling a fast one just to make a few extra bucks? $13.00 a month. That is what was so important to Toyota of the Desert in Cathedral City, CA. Not much at all, right? Why not just sign it? I walked out. I said No Add-Ons to the associate. I said No Add-ons to the sales manager. I said No Add-Ons to the guy who picked me up from my house so they could lock me away miles from home in their kingdom, hoping I would feel the pressure of no way home without a car. Why walk out over 13.00 a month? Because everyone I spoke to PROMISED they wouldn't try to trick me into add-ons. But they did it anyway. There are dealers who will treat you with respect and work toward a win/win. The ones that you will feel good about going to for future car purchases. Toyota of the Desert claims to be one, but it's the same old, same old. They'll take advantage and say it was a mistake. All for $13.00 a month. More

They began to run my husband’s credit on more than three separate occasions, and on two without his permission. What they did was straight up lie to us that Toyota Financial Services has approved us, when in reality, it had not been approved to begin with and wrote the contract at the highest tier assuming they could get TFS to reconsider. Not a fan of lies, honesty is the best policy.. More

Had major issue with service. Left messages with GM Anthony and the service manager and received no response.

I had a terrible experience with Steven Feazell at Toyota of the Desert. I went in for a simple oil change and ended up waiting over 3 hours with no proper updates or communication. This is completely unacce of the Desert. I went in for a simple oil change and ended up waiting over 3 hours with no proper updates or communication. This is completely unacceptable for such a basic service. It felt like my time didn’t matter at all. The lack of professionalism and efficiency was extremely frustrating. I would not recommend dealing with him if you value your time More
