I will never purchase a Toyota again after the way I was brushed off by not only Toyota and…read morezanesville Toyota!!! Pretty said when the transmission your car has is the same exact transmission that there is a recall for other than being told is numbers are wrong, but again same exact diagnosis as the recalls! So yeah pretty sad up until this I was sold on Toyota. Myself and everybody I know will know about my experience!!!!! Damn shame!!!!

The following review is for my purchase of a new 2023 RAV4 Hybrid XLE in November 2023…read more After calling Zanesville Toyota to inquire about RAV4 Hybrid availability, I talked with salesperson Amanda. We briefly discussed the only RAV4 in stock in the trim level I wanted. Everything moved very quickly after the call. Amanda was straightforward and the deal was simple and easy to understand. Amanda paid attention to details of our conversations. I did not have to repeat myself or haggle about a single issue. When I told Amanda the tax on the offer was $100 too much, I got zero attitude. Amanda looked into it and the number was corrected. Amanda walked out to meet me as I pulled into the lot the morning I arrived. My appointment was at 9am on a Saturday and the whole deal was done by 10am. Amanda sat with me afterwards to make sure I got Apple CarPlay set up. She was totally focused on me and making sure I was satisfied that morning. That's a rarity these days. Overall, my experience purchasing from Zanesville Toyota was a dream. Taking time to write reviews isn't something I do often, but this review is deserved.

My husband and I are long time Toyota owners, we have bought vehicles and had them serviced at C&C…read morebut when they switched to Victory the experience has been exhausting. It started when we were told the new vehicle we wanted to buy was in stock so we showed up to purchase, it was not in stock. We knew what we wanted and tried to complete paperwork and the salesman constantly tried to upsell items after we continually said no. They then told us they could get it in a few days, then it was a few weeks. Then we had to jump through hoops to get the financing completed without actually having possession of the car. Next up we had to deal with all the title issues because we are from a neighboring state. We have had to go up there repeatedly to sign documents and get temp plates since their incompetence held up the title. No sorry, not even once. I hope Toyota looks into this pathetic franchise.

Bought an SUV from these guys. starts to fall apart 4-6 months later. we get a call from the…read moredealership saying someone wanted to buy an SUV like the one we just purchased and would we like to trade it in for something that was newer and had less issues. While there I found out that an employee had been fired from the dealership for selling cars meant for auction. They said we could trade the one in that we have, get the new car, in and out, things stay the same. After waiting for 5 hours one of the guys offers us a deal that's more than twice what we're paying now. I told him that wasn't in the budget at which point he begins to try to pressure me by saying how the newer car won't have any problems and the one we bought is already having issues. They did say there is financing available to fix the thousands of dollars of repairs that are needed. First and last car purchased at this place.

What I like: I really like my car, and Toyota Direct makes payments easy and convenient, which I appreciate. What I don't like about the vehicle: The screen in my 2025 vehicle keeps shutting down. It was repaired, but the same issue came back shortly after the replacement. A vehicle this new should not have the same problem recurring so quickly after a repair. I'll be going back to service soon. Oh, this one service guy had my keys in his hand to show me to my car with completed service and he holding my keys he asked what color my car was. What the heck was that?!? Give me my keys so I can leave! When I answered the question he gave me my keys. (BUT KYLE AND LILY ARE TRUE ROSES FOR TOYOTA. Their service is smooth, kind, informative and humble. I can truly rest in their characters. The sales experience: My salesman seemed more interested in flirting and asking personal questions than selling me a car. He could have been my son, so no offense taken. However, ladies, don't get caught up answering salespeople's questions about your dating life unless it directly relates to why you're buying the car. Divert immediately and get back to business! Now, let's talk about the financing. They showed me a credit score approximately 10-20 points lower than my actual score. A lower score could justify a higher interest rate, and my salesman was prepared to proceed with that rate. I took a picture of the credit report they showed me. What happened next? My interest rate went from 10% to 5.99%. Even more interesting, before offering me 5.99%, my salesman wrote 4.99% on paper, then scribbled it out and said, "I mean 5.99%." Then the financial advisor came out of his office and said something along the lines of, "Come on, you've been here a long time. Let's sign the papers." I found that intimidating and frustrating. I was making a major financial commitment, and I was taking the time necessary to make an informed decision. My time at the dealership was not a reason to rush me into signing a contract. Lastly, while I was signing the paperwork, the financial advisor told me he had "pushed the due date" as far out as he could. I interpreted that as a favor. Great, right? Well, I later realized that extending the due date would result in the company collecting hundreds, possibly over a thousand dollars, more in interest over the life of the loan. So much for "Oh, let me help you!" Bottom line: I like my Toyota, and I appreciate Toyota Direct's convenient payment system. However, my experience taught me to pay close attention to every detail of a vehicle purchase. Know your actual credit score. Question discrepancies. Pay attention to interest rates. Read the fine print. Understand how changing your payment due date affects the total interest you pay. And above all, never let a salesperson's charm, a financial advisor's urgency, or the appearance of a favor distract you from what the numbers actually say. I came to buy a car, not to be pressured into a financial bomb. Read everything, ask questions, take pictures, and do the math. P.S Also, my old car was towed to their parent company who was instructed not to touch anything in the car. Tell me why they pretended not to have my car while they stuffed SOME of the items back in the car that they weren't supposed to touch?! When I asked the guy in the back sitting in the middle chair if he could contact me if they found what was missing, he said ok, but never called. HMMMM...only a call was needed. Also, I was told only one credit check would show up in my credit report since they were all done together. That was a lie, three credit checks are sitting on my credit report. If any salesman there tells you this walk away, their honesty wanes to secure sales instead of just being honest because it's the right thing to do.
