Went in for a tire rotation on April 10th. Approached waiting in the service line about trading our 2021 Tundra in. We decided to see what they had to say. I told the salesperson that we were Approached waiting in the service line about trading our 2021 Tundra in. We decided to see what they had to say. I told the salesperson that we were upside down on our truck, she said no problem. They have us drive a 2026 Tundra 1794 edition. Then came back and had us drive a 2026 Tundra limited. Told them repeatedly I was not comfortable going above a certain price on payments. They kept coming back saying what's another $100. Umm it's alot in the grand scheme of things. Anyways tell us what the payment would be, husband and I discussed it, decided we would do it. They give us the paper to change our insurance to the new truck, go to talk to the insurance people on site to see if we could get a better deal, then head to finance where we sign all the papers. Then before we are walking out without a copy of the paperwork we are told by Matt that the director is having a conf call on Tues and they will let us know if this is a done deal. Wait, what? We signed everything already we thought it was done. We didn't hear anything on Tues or Wed. I reached out to your salesperson and asked her what was going on she said she would look into it. She said it was still in the works. Spoke to a director on April 20th that said he was having a call at 3 that day to see what they could do. Needless to say 10 days after signing the paperwork we were told they couldn't secure financing and we needed to bring the truck back. We go to the dealership to bring it back and get our truck back. We have to go in to change our insurance back to our old truck and the make sure the registration was switched back. Which is a huge hassle. Then we leave and head straight home. I back in the driveway, get out and walk around the back. I stop to lock the doors while on the phone with my daughter-in-law and see my bumper was damaged. Something that was not their when we traded it in. I immediately call our salesperson and tell her we have a problem and send her a picture. She calls her boss and tells them, she tells me they would check cameras the next day. I get a call around 11 to tell me that they will fix the issue and give us a loaner while it's getting fixed and we would hear from Sun Collision. I hear from them they order the parts, we take the truck down the next day. They take us to the dealership to get the loaner where we are told we will have to pay for gas if we don't put in any. I explained i shouldn't have to pay for gas since I wouldn't need a loaner if my truck was not damaged in their parking lot. There was just under $1000 worth of damage that they paid to fix. I checked my bank and they charged me $8 for gas. Absolutely ridiculous. This would have been thr 4th vehicle we purchased from them but never again. Very poor business practice. More
