The detailing manage doesn't know what he's doing, hopefully they can find someone who's actually qualified. hopefully they can find someone who's actually qualified. More

It's been a difficult decision to write this review. I'm a big fan of Toyota cars in general, but I'm not a fan of how the team at Destination Toyota Burnaby has handled our families situation. I'm not I'm a big fan of Toyota cars in general, but I'm not a fan of how the team at Destination Toyota Burnaby has handled our families situation. I'm not here to tear anyone down, and will not name names, because that is not the purpose of this review. I'm not here to shame anyone, I'm just here to warn unsuspecting customers of what they're getting into when they order a car from this dealership. I ordered a AWD Sienna Hybrid 14 months ago. We were being served by the most senior sales advisor on staff and he cautioned me that it could take a year to receive a car. I said that I was fine with that, knowing about the chip shortage and the shortage of vehicles in general. Throughout the course of the year I checked in 3-4 times to ensure that I was holding my place in line, and continued to share that I had a high quality trade-in ready to go and that I was local to the dealership so they were gaining a valuable customer who would use them for service. I was assured over and over again that I was on the list and my time was coming. To make a very long story short, after 13 months, with no strait answers, I requested a meeting with one of the most senior managers in the entire dealership, and they inform me that I am not on the list for this vehicle, but I am on a "Hand Raiser list". I asked "What is a hand raiser list", they informed me that it was a list where customers have expressed interest in a car, but have not been put on any sort of queue. I informed the Manager that I had a years worth of text messages assuring me that I was on the formal list and that I would be contacted when the vehicle I had selected or something similar landed at the dealership. He said that he was sorry that I had been mislead but there was nothing he could do other than keep me on a list of customers who potentially might be called on if someone backs out of their allotment. When I asked how many people were on that list he said "about 700". Obviously he apologized for the year plus long lie, but said it was out of his control. What I don't understand is WHY LIE to a customer for over a year? What benefit comes from that, then as a manager, why wouldn't you try and honour the word of your most senior sales staff and look for a mutually beneficial solution? How does the no.1 senior sales staff not have the authority to correct a blatant, almost comical lie, and pretend there can be nothing done? What I've learned is at the end of the day, we're all just a number. There is no putting the customer first, because we as a community aren't valued. Destination doesn't need you right now, so they're not even going to try, because there is 700 people waiting in line behind you on this particular vehicle. They are so short on cars that they do not have to consider your best interest, nor do they take accountability for their words or actions, or ultimately desire to see your situation resolved. I was actually admonished by a staff member who said "you should never order a Sienna if you're in a rush to get it". I said, "is it a rush when you're promised a car in roughly 12 months and you call to inquire in month 13 only to find out that you're not even on the list?" It's my fault for trusting my sales advisor who promised me I was on this supposed "list". I trusted their word because of extenuating circumstances that they were under. At the end of the day fool me once shame on you, fool me twice... Destination it's been a tough couple of years on all dealerships, we understand that, but the quality and integrity of a dealership shows through actions over words. I'm sad to say that your words were not truthful and your actions were disappointing. More

$350 for safety check - bare wire and cable covers needed not mentioed or fixed / air conditioning not working / regassed for $150 and still didn't work / said it would be over $2000 to fix / found mechanic not mentioed or fixed / air conditioning not working / regassed for $150 and still didn't work / said it would be over $2000 to fix / found mechanic who said bearings were shot (first thing your mechanics should have checked before regassing) / He found part and job was fixed for $400 / wanted to have you as a go to, but clearly can't trust your work or your upselling tactics / sorry More

On Feb 01, 2023, I sent my Toyota Prius Prime Upgrade for an estimate on the bottom of the vehicle for damages due to car sliding to side of the road. The car was drivable and engine was in good condition. an estimate on the bottom of the vehicle for damages due to car sliding to side of the road. The car was drivable and engine was in good condition. After the inspection and estimate was completed, I noticed there was an error message on the display "Grille Shutter Inoperative." with a malfunction sign and a yellow "i" sign. On opening the hood and vinyl cover, I found a yellow masking tape on the grille shutter assembly. Apparently the mechanic had done some work causing the the shutter to be inoperative. It is annoying to see this display when I drive on the road now. I have tried to call the Body shop today, but was informed they are closed on the weekends. Very disappointed with the estimate. More

From the island and our 2021 Highlander hybrid died in New West. Westminster Toyota was useless ( couldn’t get us in for a month) so that was not going to help so we called Destination and they said they New West. Westminster Toyota was useless ( couldn’t get us in for a month) so that was not going to help so we called Destination and they said they would look at it between jobs. Then they called today and changed their story. If they would have told us yesterday that we couldn’t be helped, we would have tried elsewhere. Garbage service. I remember when Toyota was a great brand. So far less than impressed with the BC dealerships. More

I recently sold my father-in-law’s car through Destination Auto and it was actually an enjoyable experience. Like many I suppose, selling or buying a car can be a bit stressful. This couldn’t have Destination Auto and it was actually an enjoyable experience. Like many I suppose, selling or buying a car can be a bit stressful. This couldn’t have been easier! It’s largely due to Dimitri who was the person handling this used car sale. He was knowledgeable and very thoughtful in dealing with my elderly in-laws. Not only was he courteous but also accommodated their physical limitations. They were very pleased with how well he handled the sale and was very balanced and fair. I couldn’t more highly recommend Destination Auto or Dimitri! More

Send my 2018 Sienna to fix a noise coming from the draw door on the driver side. Problem was specifically stated but after 4 hours ($377), the sound came back after half hour of driving. Asked the service door on the driver side. Problem was specifically stated but after 4 hours ($377), the sound came back after half hour of driving. Asked the service what they have done, she said it was hard to track the noise as there were lots of sound in that vehicle. After testing the vehicle with another mechanic, the vehicle was fixed, another 3.5 hours, with a lengthy report with basically voice down to lube and tightening of door latches and hinges. P.S. 2018 sienna vehicle was bought from the same dealer and not driven for the passed 2 years with 56k mileage on it. CMI More

Unprofessional staff - I had a disappointing experience with Toyota destination so I'd like to share it. I submitted a trade in appraisal for my car and a day after, I received an email from "Dave" who pr with Toyota destination so I'd like to share it. I submitted a trade in appraisal for my car and a day after, I received an email from "Dave" who proposed me to book a test drive for RAV4. I asked him if it's possible for me to book for the same day at 5:30 pm and he was like "absolutely". I finished my job earlier in order to be able be there on-time. When I arrived, I shocked as Dave wasn't there. I know an emergency can happen to everyone but he should have informed me and also he had to ask someone in his team to assist with the customer. Thanks to Young Cheon, she did her best however there wasn't any prepared car for a test drive. She suggested me to test one of their RAV4 preowned which was much worse than my own Nissan Rogue with 51000 km. I brought back the car in 5 minutes, feeling really disappointed as they wasted my time. I tried to send an email directly to their customer service and management team instead of writing a review but couldn't find their email address. More
