Toyota. Nowhere else. That's all I ever wanted to work for. I have joked that I bleed Toyota emblems. My Dad, Uncle, and Aunt all worked for Toyota when I was growing up. We were early adopters of the product here in Central Illinois. I think our 1989 Corolla was the first Toyota in Fairbury, IL. I started at Fort's as a Salesman on April Fools Day 1996. Hopefully, I haven't been the fool! It is an easy way for me to remember the date. I had never sold a car or worked at a dealer before, but I impressed the sales manager with my product knowledge. Later, as my Wife and I started a family. I needed a kid-friendly schedule and moved to the service department. This has been an opportunity to meet thousands of Toyota lovers! I can talk Toyota all day with you folks!

Absolute worse service experience. Truck broke down on 6/12/22. It was immediately towed to the dealership. The next day they are trouble shooting it and 6/22/22 I am told it is fix Truck broke down on 6/12/22. It was immediately towed to the dealership. The next day they are trouble shooting it and 6/22/22 I am told it is fixed, a bad fuel pump ~$3000 cost. I pick it up 6/23/22, drive the hour home and it dies right outside my driveway. (They did then pick it up and give me a loaner to drive while they had it for over 3 more weeks and by the time I got notified that it was something that they had to call Toyota headquarters for and it was then per the rep a "simple fix with 4 bolts under the hood" $400 part that I was to be responsible for. Clearly I was upset as the problem wasn't fixed the first time, they have now had my car (minus the hour I drove it home on 6/22) for over a month and now I was going to have to pay the extra cost. Long story short made multiple calls to the Toyota customer service line with very polite people but noone would get back with me as to solution on the original cost adjustment and this "simple fix" as I was told. The service liaison was nice but really didn't have any control, and when I eventually got a call back from the service manager who understood my frustration but he was out of the office for most of this situation. His explanation was acceptable, the communication up until that point was horrible. The service department needed 30 plus days to fix the vehicle? doubtful... I had purchased several vehicles over the years from this dealership. They completely lost my trust and business. More

I had an issue with my 10 year old Prius, was really worried it was going to cost an arm and leg to repair/replace. Eric told me that the problem was not an issue, wouldn't affect my car in any way!
