A service advisor indicated to me that my extended warranty was showing "suspended" when I brought my Highlander in for repairs, and I was facing some very expensive repair work right before Christmas warranty was showing "suspended" when I brought my Highlander in for repairs, and I was facing some very expensive repair work right before Christmas. The thought of having to cover the estimated bill myself was very distressing. When i asked the service manager Mr. Wong for help he insisted that the problem was my responsibility and that he was not prepared to act on my behalf to correct the situation. He said " It would take me (Mr. Wong) too long to contact Toyota and they wouldn't get back to me for maybe two days anyways." He suggested I "go home and look for my paperwork and fax the information to him" and then he might be able to help. Perhaps if he understood just how someone feels when being brushed off when all they are asking for is help he might be more empathetic. One helpful recommendation he did have was that I “should contact the dealership that I purchased the vehicle from and get them to help". Well I did, and spoke with a wonderful representative (Sheila (?) from Langley Toyota) who quickly put me at ease, resolved the suspended warranty problem within 5 minutes (I had moved), and was understanding and apologetic about the situation. If Mr. Wong would just have offered to call on my behalf I would have thought he was the nicest guy and the dealership believes in customer service. More
I love my Prius but this is the worst service department I've ever encountered. A price comparison shows Peace Arch significantly higher than other Toyota dealerships in the lower mainland. I hear that staf I've ever encountered. A price comparison shows Peace Arch significantly higher than other Toyota dealerships in the lower mainland. I hear that staff get their cars serviced elsewhere. Service Department operation is so bad that I have twice complained to the president of Toyota Canada, who seems unable to effect any change in dealership operation. In the 4 years since I bought my Prius, my car has only been ready at the time promised three times, and nobody bothers to get in touch to flag problems or delays. As a result, I missed, among other things, a medical appointment for which I had waited months. While some staff are pleasant, some are downright rude, and the general defensiveness and disorganization raise concerns for me about the competence of the work being done. By all means, buy a Toyota, but don't buy it here! More
They try to advance the servicing schedule every time you go in for a regular appointment, and somehow never noticed that my radiator cap had completely deteriorated over the years, meaning I had to find out go in for a regular appointment, and somehow never noticed that my radiator cap had completely deteriorated over the years, meaning I had to find out while on vacation.
