Here's a polished but still firm 1 star review:…read more I was really disappointed with my experience at Toyota Salinas. I booked an appointment online for 12:30 PM and drove about 20 minutes to get there. When I arrived, I checked in at the front and was told to wait in my car because someone would come out to help me. I waited about 18 minutes with no one approaching me, so I had to flag someone down myself. After that, I was told there were 13 cars ahead of me and it would likely take around 4 hours before they could even get to my car. At that point, I was confused and frustrated because I had booked an appointment. They explained that the appointment time was really just a drop-off time, which was not clear when booking online. The whole process felt disorganized, slow, and inattentive. The customer service was poor, and I felt like my time was completely wasted. If appointments are not actual service times, that should be made very clear upfront so customers can plan accordingly. I would not recommend coming here if you expect timely or attentive service.

Overall, the whole experience was 5 Star!

DO NOT VISIT!!!! The sales people scam you by not telling…read moreyou your APR interest rate and financing terms. The finance people don't want to do their jobs after you've bought the car and realized how much you got scammed. Instead of simply answering your questions in a timely manner, they let your emails go unanswered for multiple days, leading into weeks. Then when you call for answers, they have attitude and interrupt you. I'm talking about Erik in particular but I've had nothing but terrible experiences here, from sales, to service, to finance, and am so glad to have moved closer to a different Toyota dealership, even though I'll be trading this overpriced POS in for a much better, yet cheaper, car. Trust me, it's way worth to drive somewhere else instead of going to these lying, sexist, lazy people.

Lorenzo helped us, and he was amazing--super friendly, communicative, and reassuring during a stressful time. On top of that, they gave us a really fair price. The only thing that dampened the experience a bit was the receptionist who answered the phone. She sounded like an older woman and came across as pretty rude. When I called back a second time because we had lost track of Lorenzo while following him, I asked where he was, and she responded with an attitude along the lines of, "What do you mean he's with you? He's supposed to be towing you guys," instead of trying to help calmly. I ended up just asking for his number. Aside from that interaction, everything else--especially Lorenzo's service--was excellent. He really turned a stressful situation into a smooth experience.

Would definitely recommend.

I met with the seller of my vehicle at Aaliyah's Auto Shop for a pre-inspection. During the…read moreinspection, the owner, Jesse, informed me that my vehicle had a "very small" water pump leak and that the coolant level was low. He stated that he topped off the coolant with fluid and showed my husband a picture; however, the picture he showed was only of the coolant, not of an actual water pump leak. At no point was I shown a picture or physical evidence of a leak itself. Due to the stress of the transaction and being surprised by this diagnosis--especially since I regularly maintain my vehicle every three months--I did not ask to personally see the alleged leak at that time. Jesse also stated that the vehicle needed new brake pads because they were due for replacement. A few days later, I contacted Jesse to request a photo of the water pump leak. He then informed me that he did not have any photo of a leak--only a photo of the coolant. He went on to say that the car was otherwise "perfect," drove great, and that the only issues were the need for new breaks and a new water pump. Because of these inconsistent statements, I took it upon myself to have the vehicle inspected at a Honda dealership while also completing an oil change. The certified Honda mechanics did not find any water pump or coolant leaks (please see attached video). Additionally, they confirmed that the brakes were at approximately 50% life remaining and did not require immediate replacement. Based on these findings, I am deeply concerned about the accuracy and integrity of the inspection performed at Aaliyah's Auto Shop. It appeared that unnecessary repairs were recommended without sufficient evidence. Jesse also emphasized that his shop was the cheapest in town and that he offers the best prices, which further raised concerns that the diagnosis may have been influenced by sales motives rather than factual mechanical issues. I believe this experience demonstrates a lack of transparency and reliability. I strongly encourage anyone seeking a pre-purchase inspection to consider using a trustworthy and reputable mechanic or dealership service center to avoid receiving misleading or inaccurate information.

Broken promises and incompetence... At every level. We saw a car online and called them to ask if…read morethe car was available and ready, we were ready to buy and we didn't even want to negotiate the price, so the whole process should have been done quickly. I also had a pre-approved loan for the total in-hand and ready to go before we walked in. We got trapped in the dealership for a total of 4 hours, they made us sit in the lobby for over 30 minutes waiting for nothing before any paperwork showed up. Something that should have prepared while we were making our way over. After telling us how much they appreciate the service of our military members, they then let us know that they will not accept checks from Navy Federal Credit Union. We were forced to go with one of their lenders, even though I already had the check in-hand. That would have been nice to know before I already spent an hour in-store! So I had to take an extra hit on my Credit when really I should have just walked out. Luckily my credit score is high enough to take it. We sat for an hour waiting for them to find a loan for us, and we got a lot of rejection letters only because we ALREADY HAD THE DANG CHECK FROM MY BANK so of course new lenders aren't going to want to accept to give a second loan to someone! Whatever, we had already been there for so long, I was not leaving without this car at this point. We then sat there for another 90 minutes while they "finished the paperwork..." but didn't give us any idea of how long that would take so we could have used that time to do something other than sit there and do nothing! (This is hour 3 of trying to entertain our kiddo while we wait by the way). After that 90 minutes we went into some other guy's office and re-hashed all of the information from the past few hours all from scratch. It should have been an email or that other guy should have been present the whole time! He was just walking around the store we saw him several times just strolling! At the end of the transaction when everything finally went through, Walid, the salesman, said we would have to wait another 30 minutes for the car to be detailed. WHY in the last 4 hours was the car was not cleaned?!?!?!? Crazy. After we walked out we discovered that one of the two keys had a dead battery. I asked Walid if he could help get us a new key battery and he said he would "look into it." Fine. I waited a month and then emailed him about it, and he replied over two weeks later saying that he would ask the parts department if they had a key battery for us. It has now been six months and we haven't heard from Walid or BMW at all! All of their claims about caring about their customers are false. They got their money and now they have no interest in continuing to provide service, even after they say they will.

*I wrote to long of a review so AI was used to pair it down. I have a detailed 3 page…read morereview/timeline* Two experiences -- and a two-month follow-up ordeal -- sealed my decision to never return. JANUARY - OIL CHANGE: I had an appointment and waited 20 minutes before anyone acknowledged me, while a manager sat visible in his office. After a delayed check-in, I was told it would take about an hour. Two hours in, my truck hadn't moved -- everyone had gone to lunch without telling me. I finally got it back 3 1/2 hours after my appointment. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and didn't write a review. FEBRUARY - TRUCK WOULDN'T START: AAA towed it in for a ~10 AM slot. By noon the mechanic had just pulled it in. Diagnosis came end of day; no one could get the part. Communication was like pulling teeth -- texts went unanswered, calls unreturned. Jason, seemingly the only service advisor, was always upbeat when he did answer. He's clearly overworked, and I genuinely appreciate him. The cause: a fried receiver box from a known, widespread rear glass leak. An extended warranty exists for '19-'21 Rams -- mine didn't qualify. Fine. But the warranty department took until Friday to deny a claim I'd called about on Monday. When the truck was ready, I waited 5+ hours for a shuttle that was supposed to come "within the hour." The truck was returned in an awful state, see pictures. Everything on the floor was pulled from under the seat, tossed around, and walked on. Then their key programmer broke, so I had to return Monday for my second key. THE FOLLOW-UP (February-April): Two months of unreturned calls and unanswered messages just to get a second key programmed. In March they told me my previously working fob was now broken -- their problem, not mine. By April, management offered a 60/40 split on both the sprayers and the key. Hard pass. I came in with two working key fobs. On April 15th I finally reached the Service Manager, Carlos, who was unaware of my case but resolved it quickly. The 16th was the first time I've ever seen two employees at the front desk. Bryan greeted me immediately, Carlos (the new manager) came out personally, and I left with two working fobs in 39 minutes. That visit alone would be 5 stars. FINAL NOTE: Rather than pay ~$300 for the sprayers, I pulled the hood liner myself. A hose had simply come off -- also during a prior dealership visit that had already destroyed most of the liner. My sprayers work fine now. I hope Carlos runs a tighter ship. I won't be back to find out, and I wouldn't recommend you find out either.
