Get ready for a gaggle of Dealership reviews. On this day we hit 5 different dealerships, test drove 3 cars, and this was a the second attempt for a Toyota dealership as well as our last stop of the day. Oddly, The Toyota was the only car we were not able to test drive in either dealership we visited. Keating was by FAR a nicer dealership than most we visited this day. It was VERY busy on a Saturday at 2p. They are located a little bit away from all the other things, and has a spacious lot. It's a new looking axe, well kept. It is currently surrounded by construction, so that's a bit of a nuisance, but not their fault. Expect some way finding issues.until that clears up. We were greeted at the door and escorted to the wait area. They don't have any table or spaces available for customers, so we waited a wee bit for service. It happens, first come first serve. 15 minutes later we were sat, and as we tried to converse with our salesperson, we were constantly interrupted by the customers on the other side of the privacy wall. Our sales person was apparently juggling more than one set of customers. This became more evident and aggravating the more it occured. Once we discussed what we wanted to see, our person had trouble finding the model we wanted in their inventory system and went back and forth a few times, saying he'll be right back. After another 25 minutes, he came back to let us know that they did not have one on the lot. Overall, I feel like that could have been a much faster and easier process. I would've appreciated a quicker understanding of their situation rather than a longer stay twiddling my thumbs and 45 minutes of no productive activity. I understand it gets busy and people want to make a sale, but a smoother intake process is clutch. And don't come grab us off the lot just to leave us at a table while you help other people. Finish with them, then take on more. Neither group is getting the best service the way it's being done. You could call ahead as well, but I had expected them to have at least one of their flagship hybrid RAV4 models available. My mistake. Nice place, maybe go towards opening, it might be a better experience. And check their inventory before the journey. Long drive to not have something to test drive.

Location of Keating Toyota

Recently I purchased a truck from Keating Toyota. I can't say that I walked away feeling like I got a fair deal. If you go in thinking you can get a fair price with the dealer discount and the $3000 rebate, be careful. They basically use that to get people in, but in reality they bump up the cost of the vehicle and say they are offering a $2000, $3000 etc. vehicle discount. Regarding the $3,000 Toyota rebate, that also is deceptive. I went in with a pre-approved loan from my bank, but they try very hard to convince you to go with their financing, this is so they can get a cut of the money from your loan. You can't get this rebate if you use Toyota finance, the sales guy won't tell you this, my sales guy didn't. Negotiate your final drive our price without the rebate if you plan to use Toyota Finance. The Finance office is where you get screwed. They don't explain all the numbers, unless you ask. Even when you ask and they explain, they are not through and the numbers are not straight forward. They don't make it easy. It's like trying to make sense of your telephone bill. If you must buy from here, make sure to ask them to explain all the numbers. If it doesn't make sense, be ready to walk out. There are lots of Toyota dealers in and around the city and beyond.

See all

I went in last week to see if I could work a deal on a new f150. Let's just say I got there at 9am…read moreand was leaving in my new truck at 11:30am. Fasted easiest quickest car buying experience I've ever had. And they worked with me on the price too to get my payment down.

Very disappointing service experience…read more I brought my vehicle to Ford for two recalls, a seat belt sensor issue, a panel warning light, a tire-pressure sensor issue, and an oil change that was quoted at $79. The experience was disappointing from the beginning. I scheduled a 7:00 AM pickup, then called several times to change it to 10:30 AM. Each time, I was told the appointment had been changed. Despite that, the driver arrived at 8:30 AM and apologized for being late for the 7:00 AM pickup. My service manager throughout this experience was Phil Myers. I was told the vehicle would hopefully be ready by Friday afternoon. I explained that my wife is ill and that I urgently needed the vehicle, and Phil said he understood. When I called Friday, only the oil change had been completed and parts still needed to be ordered. The repair estimates were also substantially higher than the online price ranges I had researched. I have used Big Star Ford in the past, so I ultimately authorized the work. By Monday, the sensors and oil change had been completed, but the two recalls had not. I was then told the recall work would require approximately three additional days. Rather than keeping the vehicle and completing the recalls, the dealership returned it to me. I now have to make another appointment and bring the vehicle back again to have the recalls completed. The final prices were also higher than the estimates. For example, the $79 oil change ended up costing $149. The total bill was $1,328 for repairing 3 sensors and an oil change. There was also an issue with the wheel locks. I had never needed the key and did not realize the vehicle had locking lug nuts. I was initially told they might not be able to remove the wheel without the key. They eventually removed it, but when I asked that the locking lug nuts be replaced with standard lug nuts, that was not done. I was told the vehicle would be returned by valet Tuesday morning. I tried reaching Phil at 10:00 AM and again at noon, leaving messages both times. I ultimately contacted the dealership switchboard and reached another employee. The vehicle was finally returned around 2:00 PM. Phil never contacted me regarding the delay. Throughout the process, Phil was consistently difficult to reach. On the occasions when I was able to speak with him, I found his tone dismissive and condescending, which made an already frustrating situation more difficult. I also requested a call from the General Manager. His secretary took my information and said he would return my call, but I never heard from him. The issue isn't simply the cost. The overall communication, turnaround time, follow-through, and customer service were disappointing. I understand that repairs can take time and that unexpected issues can arise, but I expected better communication and would have preferred that the dealership complete the recalls rather than return the vehicle unfinished and require me to schedule another appointment. In summary, a few simple, very expensive repairs were made over a period of 5 days, but the recalls remain outstanding and the overall experience was extremely poor. Based on this experience, I would never use this service department again.

Let me start with the service repair 2015 Chevy Tahoe LTZ (avg yearly mileage 10K....which is…read moreexcellent)...truthfully I have no issues with the repair or the $3000 bill; however, I believe any dealership/repair shop would have delivered the same end results. Thats Not the issue. The issue is customer service and closed loop communication. I noticed the 2.2 customer rating and said to myself that couldn't be right. Nope it's right..lol 20+ years in the Marine Corps has prepared me for all types of folks and conversations. I have always enjoyed the underlying insults and swipe lefts because assumptions are made based on my REI choice of wardrobe, which is why I'm upfront with my expectations......I shouldn't have to call to update myself or reconfirm authorizing a full repair (especially after informing them of what was needed to be repaired)......here we go again "Well sir this, well sir that ...some people consider a 100 dollars repair a lot a money....WTH!?" I didn't any receive a after service car wash. If 'Ole Joe" was still there working, I know for a fact my outcome would have been different. The customer glue is no longer there. To my Navy Docs and Marine Corps Brothers, on everything (I)we hold dear to our cloth. Do Not patronize this dealership.

Terrible. Regret purchasing my vehicle from them. The worst customer service I've ever experienced…read more After attempting to contact them still no one has contacted me to try to make things right after I put down a significant down payment & my car only had 1 floor mat. They said they'd give me some, it's been months & I've reached out about it & they said I'd get a call back from someone to work on getting me floor mats. Wasted money on getting my car detailed cuz the floor just gets dirty instantly.. Also discovered the other day when I was on the side of the interstate with my 3 kids & a flat, the vehicle they sold me in September of 2025, didn't have a donut or spare. DON'T GO HERE.

My husband paid this shop $13,000 for an engine replacement and his truck has broken down three…read moretimes since. One breakdown happened only 30 minutes after pickup and left me stranded on the side of the road for an hour and a half. They reused parts from the old engine, including the oil cooler, fuel injectors, and high-pressure fuel pump, and he is now being told fuel is getting into my oil and the replacement engine may be damaged. The oil cooler leaked badly, a brand-new clear hose was found cut after another breakdown, and he was still charged another $800 for repairs. Every problem has been met with zero accountability and zero responsibility. We are looking at another 5400 in new repairs.

I took my truck to Grease Monkey after hearing a whining/hovering noise coming from the driver-side…read morewheel well. The noise changed with RPM, and there were no check engine lights or stored codes. Since I didn't have time to diagnose it myself, I decided to try this shop based on their good Yelp reviews. I went in on Saturday, April 4th. The staff was friendly and greeted me right away. I explained the issue clearly and also mentioned that I had just done an oil change and brought the oil filter with me so they could inspect it for any signs of internal engine damage. Later that day, I received a call saying the noise was coming from the valve train. They asked for approval to remove the driver-side valve cover on Monday for further inspection, and I agreed. On Tuesday, I was told they heard a small noise from cylinder 2 and diagnosed it as a rod bearing issue. I specifically asked about the condition of the oil, and they said it looked fine and that I could continue driving it. When I picked up my truck, I was charged $240 total ($120 for a diagnostic scan and $120 to remove the valve cover). What concerned me was that my oil filter was still untouched in the bag. I went back inside to ask how they checked for metal in the oil without inspecting the filter. They then offered to check it after I brought it up. Once I got home, I decided to do a quick basic check myself. I removed the belts and ran the engine, the noise completely disappeared. That led me to the actual issue: a bad vacuum pump. I replaced it myself, and the noise is now completely gone. Overall, the staff was polite, but the diagnosis I received was incorrect and led me to believe I had a serious internal engine issue when it turned out to be something much simpler. It's frustrating to pay a diagnostic fee that cost more than the actual repair, especially when a basic check could have identified the problem much quicker

These past few weeks when I have been struggling to use my car with two broken external handles, I…read moreWISHED I had the mechanical skills to fix my car. Since I do not, the next best thing was finding LA Auto which is Woman owned and Operated to fix my ride! LA Auto was brought to my attention thanks to the Projects feature in the Yelp App. I sent out a request for a job or service and Yelp broadcasted it to businesses to reach out to me concerning the service. I had initially had a different mechanic before LA Auto that was going to do the job, but a price change occurred before the vehicle was in their possession. Decide to nix that mechanic and go back to the drawing board acquiring estimates for the job. By this point, I had already ordered and picked up my parts directly from the dealership so they would match my vehicle. All I needed was the labor to complete the repair. I was really intrigued that there was a Woman owned and operated auto shop in Houston, so I decided to reach back out to the shop about an estimate for labor. My inquiry was Friday afternoon, so I didn't expect to hear back until Monday. Liz, the Owner, however, was in contact with me in and out the entire weekend asking for pictures of the parts to ensure they were correct for the vehicle based on the VIN as well as making sure they didn't need to paint the handles. She gave me a range on the price for the labor, which I could understand because she never saw the vehicle before- only pictures of the damage. We did most of our communication on Monday which offerred a great opportunity for me to get the car fixed that afternoon since she had an opening. I honestly thought I may have to come back another day to get the job completed because EVERY OTHER BODY SHOP I SPOKE TO said I would have to drop the car off just to get an estimate. I did that with one Pearland body shop and received a quote of over a THOUSAND dollars just to fix some handles! They even stated the labor was high because the panels of the car had to be removed. Thanks to Youtube, II knew that was not the case and Liz the owner and my mechanic confirmed my research as she completed the work on the vehicle in less than an hour WITHOUT removing the inside panels. She worked fast and I was even able to see her work from the office which provides a chair or two inside for waiting customers. A/C is blizzard cold inside the waiting area, so bring a jacket. This is not your car dealership waiting room with tvs and refreshments, so bring your own, but Liz worked so fast I didn't need to indulge in either! Really friendly, sincere, and affordable service from Liz at LA Auto. I am so glad to not only have my car repaired (FINALLY, with the exception of one small part that the dealership gave me in error that doesnt affect the main fix) but I am so estatic to support a small business owned and operated by women. I am telling everyone I know about LA Auto if they ever need repairs on their vehicle. This place is a real gem and deserves to shine!
