    I recently bought my dream truck from Mid City Toyota. Austin was a pleasure to work with - knowledgeable and not pushy. Would return for my next vehicle.

    Complimentary coffee, hot cocoa, tea, hot cider and bagels

    I had a great experience bringing my Honda here for servicing! It was easy to call & make an appointment for the next morning, and everyone I talked to (making appointment, guiding me where to park, check-in) was super nice, even to an airhead that knows nothing about cars. :p For a full 1115,000 mile recommended servicing with an engine coolant refill, brake inspection, oil change, multi-point inspection, tire rotation and (optional) throttle body cleaning service to help with mileage efficiency, the total w/ tax was $392. There were cheaper options, too, but I wanted everything done. The wait was less than 2 hours, and I actually enjoyed myself at my own 4-seat table with freshly ground & brewed local coffee and choice of x3 types of toasted bagels and cream cheese. The music was catchy and some people were even bopping around in their seats. There was a free shuttle I could have taken home if I had wanted, too. After the service, everything was patiently explained to me, so I was really pleased!

    Unfortunately dealerships are always more expensive than taking them to a local repair shop. I agree that some people can find it a bit of a rip off specially when you're trying to get your basic car services such as a tune up or alignment. The reason for the stars are for a the following reasons (I am discussing Toyota car dealership and not Honda Dealership) I appreciate that the Toyota dealership staff is always helpful and really friendly, they are willing to answer any of your questions even if that means just to get a quote on tires which can also go for a pretty high price. In the past they used to service your car with a car wash if you had the mile services plan, sadly they stopped doing that. I have never had a rude representative at this location actually the opposite most staff is usually in a calm, funny, relaxed mood. This morning I called too early and left a voicemail thinking they were closed. Thankfully I made called again and found out they were open, I made my way over there and think to myself should I tell them to ignore the voicemail I just left? "Naw they haven't called me so I bet they figured I had just called back" but as I was sitting in the waiting room I receive a call from Mid City World and the lady at the front desks says Hi I just want you to know we are open" such a sweet lady and I respond " Thanks but Idid figure it out and by the way I am sitting right across from you" we both end up having a good laugh! That is just one example of how this location has always gone out of their way to ask if you have been help, or if they can help you with anything. Sadly at the moment they are only offering coffee and water they no longer offering bagels etc. which makes totally sense :-) Ever since I have stopped by here the carousel always seems to be turned off :-( it also makes sense why it would be shut off right now. I am on the fence about extended warranty, if it wasn't because I was naive and had done no research , I more than likely would have gone with a local shop. One last thing, I appreciate that this dealership is a perfect location for someone who does not wish to wait long to get their car service, they offer shuttle services (co-vid closure) or a waiting area, but better yet for those who can not sit still and would rather go on a nice walk, right by the car entrance or the exit of the dealership there is a parking area where people can go for a walk. I have yet to explore this option :-)

I was very concerned about getting a lemon or taken advantage of, but I needed a reliable car. I received wonderful service at Harper Motors even though I was purchasing a used vehicle. The staff were patient, informative and I never felt pressured to close a quick deal. I was very happy with my selection of a 2022 Toyota Corolla. The vehicle had been in a minor accident and the Carfax was provided. After several months, the repair from the accident did not hold properly. I felt sick thinking I was stuck with a $2,000.00 fix (quoted by a local repair shop). I didn't know how Harper Motors would respond but I thought it was worth contacting them before getting the repair done. They were incredible. They set up the work with a repair shop they use and the issue was resolved free of charge for me. I am so impressed with their willingness to back their product. I only got one key with the car and was very concerned about losing it. I paid the $300.00 plus price and ordered a key/fob through Toyota. The day I had the car repaired, I also had an appointment to get my new key programmed. While at Toyota, they asked if I also wanted a complimentary inspection of the car. I agreed and they discovered that the high beam on the passenger side was not working. This is where the impact from the accident had been. I stopped by Harper Motors to see if they would deal with the light issue. Again, I was shocked. The manager was immediately involved and said that it was a serious safety issue for me. They talked to their service department and found that it wasn't a simple fix, such as a bulb replacement. The whole light fixture had to be replaced. I felt that sick feeling again that they might say it was on me to get it fixed. That was not the case. They ordered the light, had me schedule with their repair shop to get the light installed. The bumper that was just fixed from the Carfax accident had to be removed. They were not irritated at all. The car is in great condition and I am very thankful for the professionalism of the Harper Motors staff. Note: It appears that the initial repair work on the car was not done by Harper Motors, but they made it good.

I visited to negotiate…read morethe price of a vehicle, and while the salesperson "Joey" was speaking with his manager, I overheard the manager say, "Good luck dealing with his hard ass"--loud enough for others in the dealership to hear. Regardless of the circumstances, speaking negatively about a customer in front of others is unprofessional and reflects poorly on the business. Buying a car is already a challenging process, and customers should feel respected throughout the experience. When I presented legitimate comparable vehicles to support my negotiation, my concerns were dismissed with suggestions that the vehicles might have different specifications, despite the similarities being clear. It felt more like an attempt to avoid a fair discussion than to provide transparent information. My salesperson, Joey, seemed hardworking and polite Overall, the experience lacked the professionalism and customer service I expect when making a significant purchase. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this dealership.

The next day I find out my credit had been ran seven times, and again by gm, who had already offered me a loan... so I made an appt. went in two days later in person i said, "look I'm a year out of a 3 year bankruptcy, and I've worked tirelessly to get my credit score back over 700. I have a letter here from GM. I've been approved for 36k or less so rather than shop around for a loan I'd rather take this offer while you have a few cars that fit the bill." I was told by my salesman who was green AF, that's not how it works here, the finance guy makes all those decisions. I was told I could not speak to him at all. I feel like I should have walked right then, but they had the exact car I was looking for so, i said lets look at what you can do. I filled out some forms, which was odd, because they had already run my credit 7 times, but i assumed they knew what they were doing. they ran my credit to 6 loan companies and gm... again...all dinging off on my phone as it was happening. As I'm literally showing the sales rep saying wtf you guys just dinged my credit 14 times in three days when I already came with loan approval from gm in hand? this was not a prequal letter, it was a loan approval. I later brought this up to the finance guy who I was not allowed to speak with for an hour and he comes out and says "we'll we got you approved with GM" he said "Don't worry your score will drop like a rock but anyone important will know you were shopping for a car" - ok d.b. we'll my score went from 730 to 598 in 1 week because I have too many credit enquiries, and I came prepared to not have this happen. You guys need to listen to your customers, as you work for us remember? meanwhile the car wasn't detailed and there are quite a few spots with window sticker type sticky that needs to be professionally cleaned and buffed off. So they said, come by on Sat. So I did... But it turns out the detail guy wasn't in, and wasn't going to be. so I've been told now they will detail my car, and buff that sht out when the new plates come in, whenever that is. So I have a brand new car that desperately needs a wash and detail, and they owe me one... Judging by the reviews Im not sure if i should even let you guys service my vehicle which is free under the warranty I paid extra for... I'm the greatest customer ever, easy going, come with all the resources to get the job going, I don't ask much, I'm never rude, and I just want to be treated fairly.. I'm buying the first new car in my entire life, it should be a great and fulfilling experience. I should walk away excited, and happy as its the f#$king american dream!. but the only taste I have in my mouth is I shouldn't have bought here... 2 stars for my kick a$$ Chevy!! 1 because Hunter tried his very best...

When I looked into the recalls on Kelly Blue Book I found out that one recall is very serious. One recall report from 2023 for my exact year and model, stated that the engine could suddenly seize and catch fire causing an unexpected crash and/ or injury. I was very shocked upon finding out this information about my new car, so I went down to Roy's to inform them. At first, they did not take me seriously and tried to down play the situation. Together we called an Acura dealership down south, who confirmed exactly what I had found on KBB. Roy's knew of the recall, but I was told that because there wasn't a local dealership who could fix it, thet decided not to get it taken care of. They did the their own inspection, regular maintenance and test drives on the car and that's it. BUT, what they didn't know is that the engine needs repairs or even possible replacement! They said because there was no stop sale on it, they thought it was ok to sell. It took me maybe 5 mins to do what they could have done right in the first place. Even though they let me return the car, canceled our contract and gave me a full refund of my down payment, this is a moral issue. They did not do their due diligence in making sure that this vehicle was safe to sell. I have four kids whom I dearly love. At any given time my family and others on the road, could have gotten seriously hurt or killed in a car accident fire, and that is not ok! All because it was inconvenient for Roy's to do their job correctly. This is very disappointing and now makes it hard for me to trust other used car dealerships! DO BETTER ROYS! Update: upon further investigating my situation with Roy's family business, I have discovered that my car actually does have a stop sale on it. Which Roy's was unaware of. I know this because their one claim that they had done nothing wrong because there wasn't a stop sale, which is incorrect, afterall! Obviously they do not do their homework on the used vehicles that they buy to resell to the innocent victims of our community. Please see photos . Please save yourself and your family the headache, hassle, disrespectful treatment and possible life threatening accident, that you can get when you buy a car from Roy's in Humboldt County, CA.

After my initial intake, I was already pretty put off when John stalled my manual twice and really gave no form of communication or direction. After you drive your car up and wait in line--which might I add, the ass end of my hatchback was sitting in the busy road for a cool five minutes, praying I don't get hit just saying it would've been great to be directed to the second lane. which I might add nobody knew it was there until John stalled my car into it. Get done with intake, car is done. Not that anyone asked, but my dad was hospitalized, and I haven't been able to communicate my situation too well due to mental stress. So I show up to pick up my car 10-5 minutes before they close. John is at his computer and the secretary is sitting there, I think doing paperwork. So I ask, "Can I get my car, please?" He says, "That's not possible. You came too late." I said, "You're open to 5. It's 4:55." He says, "Well, I can't do that paperwork." Then adds "John logged off his computer." John actively looks up gets up from his computer, asks if he can help, I tell him the situation, and he follows it up with, "No, I can't help ya I hus logged off my computer and I don't know where your car is" Buddy boy, John, you get paid $40-$60 an hour, or you're on a wonderful cushy salary. I was late because I had to stay 10 minutes later at my job. It's sad you can't either. Lord forbid you make anyone's lives easier. It's sad that possibly the only way for u to step up a knotch was when I had to tell you my dad was hospitalized in Redding for you to possibly offer to get it ready for the next day. That doesn't help me today, JOHN. Useless old men. Don't worry, I'll be calling the dealership and saying the same thing verbatim. The older generations like to make fun of the younger generations, but it's sad how they truly are--if not more lazy, insensitive, and just downright unhelpful--than they like to put on.

I have 2 cars both were being serviced at Leon's and for regular service I liked them, good customer experience up front. However, I took my 95 Toyota Land Cruiser in with 2 issues a suspected fuel leak (we could smell fuel in the garage when you opened the door) and it was running rough, more so when it was cold. Leon's looked at these problems and said they could not find either one. About the same time I took my 2001 Subaru Outback to them about an overheating problem and the guy from the shop came back with a big list of repairs to fix the problem even though I told him this car was a car I was not going to pay lots of money to repair. So with no solution for either car I looked for and found a shop in Arcata. The Land Cruiser went in first. On the first day he dropped the fuel tank and found that the line to the emergency break had worn a hole in the top of the fuel tank and it was leaking. He fixed it and looked for the other problem, it took him a bit longer but not much and he found the number 5 spark plug cable was periodically arcing to the exhaust pipes. So here is the significance of that, Leon's let me drive the car out of there shop with an active fuel leek and an active ignition source should the fuel get close to it. I was not pleased. Then I took the Subaru to the same shop in Arcata and in less than a day he said he found the connector to one of the fans that go on when the radiator gets too hot was not securely connected. Infer what you want from this but one thing is for sure Leon's should have caught the loose connector. Both cars now seem to be running just fine. So why did I not rate them a 1? Well initially I rated them much higher. When I came here for oil changes and tuneups the customer service at the front desk was great and this is where most auto repair shops drop the ball. I assumed that the work in the back followed the same pattern, but this turned out to be a bad assumption. So they could be good for regular maintenance, but I would not go there for anything tricky.
