In the middle of our 10 1/2 hour journey, our Toyota Tacoma began smoking and we had no choice but…read moreto pull over on a highway about 30 minutes outside of Castlegar. With no cell service in the area, we eventually got the truck started and coasted straight into the Castlegar dealership. From the minute we arrived, we were treated incredibly well and were reassured that the service techs would get to the bottom of the matter and that they would have us on our way again. We are always wary of dealerships but since we still had a few hours of driving, wanted the job done right. And Castlegar Toyota did a great job of quickly finding out the issue, even calling the quick lube shop that had serviced our truck the day before to confirm their procedures and confirmed that mistakes had been made. They had us back on the road within 1 1/2 hours (with a free bbq tool too!). The cost of their services we felt were very reasonable and comparable to other shops. We're grateful to the staff at Castlegar Toyota for getting us to our destination safely.

I'm not quite sure what's up with this dealership. We are in search of a specific Toyota vehicle…read moreand I have tried emailing and visiting the dealership on several occasions and still haven't been able to speak to anyone. We stopped by again this past Saturday, walked the lot, went inside, tried to make eye contact with several employees and we weren't even acknowledged by the Customer Service desk, let alone a salesperson. This is the second time this has happened to us there. Guess we'll be visiting Nelson Toyota this weekend. Hopefully we meet someone who actually wants to sell a car there....

I spent $600 buying it from them and had to spend another $800 to get it repaired properly not including installation. I contacted owner Cory Scanlon and he was an idiot on the phone swearing and saying the people who installed it must not know what there doing. Funning thing is it was installed by a certified transmission specialist. He is not to be trusted and does not honor his word.

Not only did they get my car back up and running but they also gave a super comprehensive overview of how my car is doing, and what future work will need to be done. Doug took the time, after a long days work, to explain their findings in a kind and informative way. I am beyond grateful for the folks who worked on my car and would highly recommend Downtown Automotive.
