Unprofessional, negligent, and retaliatory service. I bought a 2026 Toyota Prius here 3 months ago.

At 8,000 km, I brought it in for a scheduled service, and the department deemed a tire "bad," requiring a replacement under my paid Toyota Tire & Rim Road Hazard Protection (TRRHP) policy. My service advisor failed to order the tire immediately, promised updates he never delivered, and completely ghosted me. Two weeks later, the tire completely failed, leaving me stranded. When I called Gateway Toyota, they told me the tire wouldn't arrive for another 4 days. To make matters worse, the service department manager flatly refused to honor the guaranteed $70/day TRRHP rental vehicle assistance simply because of a negative survey I filled out regarding my advisor's communication. Retaliating against a customer by denying a paid, manufacturer-backed warranty contract is completely unacceptable. Management needs to step in immediately. More

I am posting this review to expose the deceptive business practices and service negligence at Gateway Toyota. My experience with purchasing a 2024 Toyota Venza Limited demonstrates a complete disregard for t practices and service negligence at Gateway Toyota. My experience with purchasing a 2024 Toyota Venza Limited demonstrates a complete disregard for the consumer. 1. PREDATORY FINANCING (Bait & Switch) Despite my substantial down payment of $21,000 and a short 3-year term, the finance department engaged in what I consider predatory lending. • The Promise: I expected the standard rate of 5.99%. • The Reality: As shown in the attached contract, I was locked into an Annual Percentage Rate (APR) of 10.07%. • The Cost: The "Total Cost of Borrowing" listed is $6,079.36. Charging over $6,000 in interest—nearly double the expected rate—to a low-risk customer with a massive down payment is unconscionable. It appears the finance team took advantage of the closing process to inflate the rate far above the 5.99% benchmark. 2. GROSS NEGLIGENCE IN SERVICE (Invoice #152796) I have visited the service department 5 times regarding a safety defect: the "Toyota Genuine Dash Camera" fails to record impacts in Parking Mode. • Documented Failure: In the attached Service Invoice #152796 (dated 08/29/2024), I formally reported that my "vehicle was impacted twice while parked" and the camera failed to record. • Refusal to Repair: Instead of diagnosing the defective sensor, the service department dismissed the issue as "normal operation," claiming the vehicle must suffer a "physical impact" to trigger recording. My vehicle WAS impacted! Their refusal to acknowledge this defect contradicts the safety specifications of the device. Conclusion: Gateway Toyota secured a $6,079.36 profit from my financing by nearly doubling my rate but refuses to fix a camera that leaves my vehicle unprotected. This dealership prioritizes profit extraction over customer safety and contract integrity. Proceed with extreme caution. More

Waited 10 days to get a battery for my prius was quoted a price twice and was told it would take 1 hour to install. I arrived at 830 was told at 930 the price was 80 more than quote waited 2.5 hours and they didn't program my clock back the way it was. Now I'm in my seventies had to look up programing time myself. All small things but they add up. I was disappointed in the service. More
