Pressure you to Finance - Do Not Honor Deals! I had a very bad sales experience attempting to purchase a car at Millennium Toyota, and I would highly recommend you avoid them at all costs. I was h I had a very bad sales experience attempting to purchase a car at Millennium Toyota, and I would highly recommend you avoid them at all costs. I was helping my 74 year old mother purchase a car at their Hempstead location. We made it clear from the start that she was intending to buy it outright and that she was not interested in an extended warranty. After spending nearly 3 hours looking at both new and used vehicles she decided on a Lexus IS 300 2016 model that fit her needs, and after some negotiations we agreed on a price. We shook on it with the Salesman, his manager, and the Pre-Owned supervisor Sherif and thanked them for agreeing on the final number. They printed out the documents for her to sign and we were in the process of getting the registration done and processing the trade in. That’s when the sales person Gary came over and asked how we were going to pay; he suggested $2000 down, and financing the rest. We reiterated that my mom wanted to pay for the entire balance and that’s when things started to go south. After going back and forth with the Sales person and him dashing away to check with the manager numerous times, he came back and told us the deal was off. I was furious we had agreed on a price, shook, on it and my mom had already signed the papers. They were attempting to pressure a 74 year old woman into taking a loan she didn’t need, and refused to follow through on the deal we agreed to. When I asked the Pre-owned Sales Manager what was going on he was incredibly rude and said they had the right to refuse the deal, and that without financing they would not honor it. We grabbed the signed papers and walked out and we will never be using them or any other Millennium affiliate if that’s how they treat their customers. More

No Integrity I originally came to this location to purchase a used car that online I saw was overpriced compared to what I’ve seen regarding the same vehicle. I originally came to this location to purchase a used car that online I saw was overpriced compared to what I’ve seen regarding the same vehicle. I came in to take a test run and the vehicle was average at best. Definitely not something I was excited to buy but I needed a vehicle and if they were willing to negotiate I was ready to make an offer. I needed a co-signer because my credit isn’t the best although I do have every bit of proof to show I have more than enough income to pay the asking price for the vehicle. However, my co-signer was uncomfortable as she was not impressed with neither the vehicle or the price this location was attempting to sell it for. We moved on but the salesman “full of smiles” was willing to do anything in his power to try and negotiate an already well overpriced vehicle. Fast forward a couple of days I went to the location that I previously purchased a 2018 Toyota Camry, and my dad has purchased several vehicles. This location was on board with Toyota.coms “speciality” pricing pending the arrival of the vehicle of my choice being delivered in a couple of days since it was not already in their inventory. Already set for purchase, because of circumstances my goal was to find a fuel efficient vehicle at a monthly cost that would save me the most money long term. That being said, my original salesmen from millenium Toyota called to ask if I was still interested in purchasing a used vehicle from them and I stated that I had already made a deal at a price point that matches my budget and what I am looking for. The salesman responded with confidence saying oh “but if you are going to lease a vehicle we can probably beat the price”. So I told him my price offer from PENN TOYOTA and he insisted that there would be an opportunity to beat the price they were offering so I made time to make another visit. I was direct to the point both on the phone and in person regarding my other offer. It was supposed to be $2000 down for a $251/ month payment with a $15,000 a year lease plan. And after much wasted time these people had the audacity to make an offer for the same vehicle at $255 a month with $3300 down. Now I’m not saying there’s anything wrong if this is the best you can do, but if you are going out of your way to have me spend my time with you when I already expressed my previous offer, you should be prepared to offer something better than my previous offer. Now there’s more. Visibly and emotionally frustrated the sales manager says we can look into it once we have your co-signer present. Meanwhile I told them that my co-signer is ready and willing to sign if their conditions are better than what was offered at the previous dealership. Despite my word that my co-signers were ready and willing to sign and leave with a car this very day he refused to move forward and review numbers about wether or not getting to my price point was even a possibility. Moral of the story, I have many people I personally know who have made a deal with this company not realizing that they are getting bent over with all these extra hidden fees that they misguide your attention away with fake authenticity, balloons, hamburgers and “specials”. This location will take advantage of anyone without a basic knowledge of how car dealerships operate and when they are called out on this with mathematical proof and research they look at you as if you are victimizing them meanwhile they are doing this on a regular basis. My recommendation is PENN TOYOTA of Greenvale if you want a genuine and realistic experience shopping for these vehicles. They will match anything you find online and are willing to go above and beyond for you when it comes to looking out for your best interest Happy Fourth of July ! Don’t be fooled and be safe ! More
