Legal threat

I wish I could give this place zero stars. I go out of my way to warn others about my experience here. They used high-pressure sales tactics and made verbal promises they didn't keep. I bought a car from Anthony Fagan with a cracked windshield. He made a show of having it inspected and promised it would be fixed -- but that never happened. I even signed up for their $50/month Toyota Care plan, which turned out to be a waste. When I left a negative review, Zac Bell, the manager, responded with what I felt was a threatening message, suggesting legal action -- I've attached it here so others can judge for themselves. This was my first major purchase after moving to the area. I regret giving this dealership my business and would strongly urge others to look elsewhere. And this is message is directly for Zac bell: Mr. Bell, I have removed my prior social media comments and would like to move forward constructively. I have every right to share my personal experience in public reviews, as long as the content is truthful and based on opinion -- which it was. I respectfully ask that you refrain from any further legal threats or intimidation. I am documenting this correspondence and will take appropriate steps if harassment continues. Sincerely, Alexander Jones

Eastern Shore Hyundai & Toyota - Dishonest Sales Tactics & No Accountability I recently purchased a 2016 Mini Cooper Convertible from Eastern Shore Hyundai and Toyota, and this has been the worst car-buying experience I've ever had. I was repeatedly assured by my salesperson, Anthony Fagan, that the vehicle was in excellent condition and well cared for. That turned out to be far from the truth. Day 2 of ownership: The battery died, and I had to pay $280 for AAA to replace it. A dead battery that soon after purchase raises serious concerns about the so-called "great condition" of this car. Serious Transmission Warning Ignored: Before buying, I noticed a message on the dash stating, "Transmission: Secure vehicle with parking brake when stopped. Consult service center." I asked Anthony about it, and he brushed it off as a "standard message for Minis" because "they like the e-brake on when parked." That was a blatantly ignorant response. Once I took the car home and actually read the full warning, it was clear this was a serious issue. When I reached out, Anthony initially told me the dealership would take care of it and provide a rental. That quickly changed when I spoke to the service department. The service manager refused to fix it, claiming I bought the vehicle as is. The sales manager told me to figure out the problem myself first. After investigating, I discovered the warning was due to dangerously low brake fluid. How did this car pass inspection? * The battery was completely dead after one day. * The brake fluid was almost empty, which is a major safety issue. * A transmission warning was displayed even before I bought it. This was the third vehicle I've purchased from this dealership, and I've referred multiple people to them in the past. But that ends today. This dealership clearly prioritizes quick sales over customer safety and trust. No Accountability & Deceptive Paperwork: * Anthony stopped responding to me completely. * Sales manager Mani is friendly but just tells you what you want to hear with no follow-through. * The service manager couldn't care less. * They claim I purchased the car as is, yet there is no signed documentation confirming this in my paperwork. A blank form in my glove box suggests they were supposed to disclose this, but it was never completed or presented to me. Had I been told this was an as is sale, I would have asked to see all of the service documents on the vehicle and asked about an extended warranty. I even emailed Darrick Heath before buying, outlining concerns about purchasing a used vehicle. Instead of transparency, they saw my questions as an opportunity to make an easy sale, yet they never even attempted to sell me an extended warranty. I've attached screenshots of that email as well. Darrick was the only honest person I interacted with, but everyone else at this dealership is a snake in the grass. I would never buy another car here again, nor will I recommend them to anyone. If you value integrity, safety, and customer service, stay far away from Eastern Shore Hyundai & Toyota.

I spent a few weeks looking for a specific vehicle online with certain must-have features, low mileage, and a great price. After finding a few at different places between Mobile, Daphne, Ft Walton Beach, and Metairie, I ended up going with one at Eastern Shore Toyota. Aaron Vordermark (aka "Rooster") was the only one from several dealerships who not only replied to my initial email asking if the vehicle was available, but he went above and beyond. He took extra photos of it for me after dark, answered any and all questions I had, and was very patient with me throughout the busy holidays. He has a very friendly personality and never came across as pushy like most salesman do, which is a huge plus with me. After 3 days of back and forth emails with Aaron/Rooster, we drove over on Black Friday when my husband was finally off work. He had it waiting at the front for us to jump right in for a test drive, and around an hour later, we had financing secured, got the keys, and were on the way home in my 2015 Toyota Sequoia Platinum. Honestly couldn't ask for a better experience buying a vehicle. Thank you, Aaron/Rooster!

My 2025. sequoia . Thanks Leslie Brown

Best salesperson ever! This is our 5th vehicle we have purchased from her. She is always very attentive, answers all the questions and stays with you till the end of sale. Leslie Brown goes above for us! She is honest and will tell you all about the cars/trucks you choose! We will forever buy our vehicles from her in the future! I would encourage you if you want an honest person please go see Leslie Brown At Eastern Shore Toyota. The Morans

They ran a license plate screw through the bracket and through the trunk of the vehicle. Then blamed someone else and refused to fix it.

I had an absolutely terrible experience with Eastern Shore Toyota. Not only will I never do business with them again I will make sure my family and friends know not to do business with them. The vehicle I purchased was damaged by careless employees and when I brought the damage to their attention they just passed the blame. I have never experienced anything like this. If you are reading this review do yourself a favor and do business elsewhere.

They were offering great deals on trade ins, up to $5000 over blue book per the front page of their website. I brought my 2017 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport in for the trade. They offered me 18k for my Jeep. That's not close to blue book and that doesn't include the lift, tires and rims, custom navigation unit, rear camera and leather seats. I tried showing them what a 18k Jeep looks like and the managers response was we have to make a profit. They weren't even able to match blue book let alone offer anything above like their website is advertising. I feel they were deceptive and dishonest with their advertising. If they'll do this with the trade in I can't imagine buying a vehicle from them: I would stay away. I'm including photos of my jeep.

If you are looking for an automobile, seek out Anthony Fagan. He was great to work with and made the car buying experience a real pleasure.

May 24, 2026 I recently acquired a 2026 Volkswagen Tiguan…read moreSEL R-Line Turbo vehicle. The salesperson, Brandon Baggett, went the extra mile to ensure I was fully informed and pleased with my purchase. Even though he is primarily associated with the Kia section of the dealership, he readily took the time to show me the Volkswagen Tiguan SEL R-Line Turbo that I desired. I opted for the avocado green exterior color, complemented by a black and amber brown diamond-stitched leather interior, which earned a spot on the 2026 Wards 10 Best Interiors & UX List. He guided me through the entire paperwork process and remained very patient, composed, and respectful. He possesses integrity and a compassionate nature. I've never experienced such attentive service in my numerous car purchases. Brandon Baggett will treat you and your family the same way rather you want to see a Volkswagen or Kia vehicle.

I will NEVER buy another Kia or recommend anyone to use this dealership. I had a 2020 Kia Telluride…read morewith issues. I dropped it off because I kept having my car run dead because the radiator fan would randomly turn on by itself (even in middle of night and after not being driven). They diagnosed car, I picked it up and when I left I got a mile down the road and heard a noise. Realized the back passenger side window was down about an inch and would not go up. I immediately took it back and they told me it probably just needed recalibrated. They couldn't get it to work. Left a note for my service advisor to call me in the morning and sent me home because it was 6pm. service manager never called me. when I finally got him on the phone two days later he told me I could bring it in but they would charge me another $189 to diagnose it. I never had my window down before I brought it in and they obviously had it down while working on the car. They caused this issue and wouldnt stand behind it. The service manager was extremely rude about it also and hung up on my sister on the phone. I will nevvvvver go back there again.

I purchased a 2014 Ram a year ago from a different dealer that came with wheel locks. I didn't…read morerealize until recently when I needed to get a TPMS replaced that I didn't have the wheel lock key... In August 2026 the 2 local dealers in my area (FL) told me I could not purchase a key from them, they would have to be cut and then new locks would be put on and didn't have any appointments to perform this repair until October. I called Tameron in AL and they got me in within 5 days. Upon dropping my car off for my appointment the service representative verified what I was here for and when he leaned that I needed a key, he went in the back and in less that 10 minutes took care of my issue WITHOUT cutting anything... And despite me insisting that they charge me something for their time, the technician refused and only asked that I go online and write a review of my experience. I now have a key when needed. Now days everyone is skeptical about dealers and service and getting sold repairs they don't need... This dealer could've have taken my car in, removed the wheel locks with their key, and charged me for the repair the FL dealers claimed needed to be done and I wouldn't have know any different.... Although this was an hour away, and in a different state, this is where I will take my vehicle when I need service done on my Ram.

I want to share our experience with Tameron Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram Fiat in Daphne, Alabama,…read morebecause I would hate for another family to go through what we did. On Monday, October 12, 2026, my husband contacted a salesperson named Bubba about a 2012 Dodge Charger SRT advertised on the dealership's website. We live north of Nashville, Tennessee, nearly 500 miles away, so purchasing this vehicle required significant planning and a 7-hour drive each way. From the beginning, my husband was upfront about our location and his intention to travel to the dealership to test-drive and potentially purchase the vehicle. Initially, he communicated with Bubba about the vehicle's availability, price, and maintenance records. Unfortunately, communication quickly became frustrating. Information that was promised was never provided, requiring my husband to repeatedly follow up and ask for the same things. Eventually, due to the lack of communication, he requested to speak with someone in management and was connected with the sales manager, Kaleb. Things initially seemed to improve. Kaleb had my husband complete a credit application, ran his credit, and discussed pricing with him. However, when my husband reviewed the paperwork, he discovered an extended warranty costing over $4,000 had been added without it being discussed or offered to him, and the vehicle price was higher than the advertised price. My husband caught these discrepancies and had the numbers corrected. On Wednesday, Kaleb asked my husband to send the remaining information needed to prepare the paperwork so that, upon arrival, he could test-drive the vehicle and sign if everything checked out. My husband provided the requested information, but communication once again came to a halt. He repeatedly tried to reach someone on Thursday and Friday with little success. After contacting the dealership again, he eventually spoke with Kaleb on Friday around 2 p.m. During that conversation, they confirmed the arrangements, and Kaleb knew my husband would be leaving our home at 1 a.m. Saturday morning to arrive when the dealership opened at 8 a.m. Kaleb knew he was traveling nearly 500 miles each way and that my husband was making this trip based on their conversations and the arrangements they had discussed. Despite knowing all of this, no one contacted my husband to tell him the vehicle had been sold Friday evening at approximately 7 p.m. My husband arrived at the dealership at 8 a.m. Saturday morning, only to be told the car had already been sold. After all the conversations, the credit application, the paperwork, and the confirmation just hours earlier, he was left standing there with nothing. No one had reached out to notify him, and there was no meaningful effort to make the situation right. He then had to turn around and make the 7-hour, nearly 500-mile drive back home. We understand that until a purchase is finalized, a vehicle may not be guaranteed. We are not upset simply because the car sold. We are upset because the sales manager himself knew his plans, knew how far he was traveling, and spoke with my husband just hours before the vehicle was sold. At the very least, a phone call or text informing him that the vehicle was no longer available would have prevented an unnecessary 14-hour round trip. This entire experience demonstrated a disappointing lack of communication, consideration, and professionalism. We understand that things happen in the car business, but basic communication and respect for a customer's time should not be too much to expect, especially when a customer is making a significant effort to do business with you. He was a serious buyer who was willing to travel nearly 1,000 miles round trip for this vehicle. Instead of feeling valued as a potential customer, he was left feeling completely disregarded. He was chasing them to buy the car rather than them chasing him to make a sale and that isn't how it should be. I hope management takes this experience seriously and considers how this situation was handled. No customer should have to experience this kind of frustration, especially after making it clear how much time, travel, money for gas, miles on his car and effort was involved. I would strongly encourage anyone considering purchasing a vehicle from this dealership to avoid it all costs. Please share this to help us get this to the appropriate management so they can see how a potential customer was treated.
