Did not send the Cancellation Form to my lender. Back in April 2016, I bought a certified pre-owned Toyota Prius from Alrington Toyota. I also bought gap, car care, and road hazard. The very next day Back in April 2016, I bought a certified pre-owned Toyota Prius from Alrington Toyota. I also bought gap, car care, and road hazard. The very next day, I went in and asked to cancel car care ($1299) and road hazard ($337). They were very nice and had me sign a cancellation form that they would send to my lender (Southeast Toyota Finance) to be taken care of by them. I call my lender and they assured me that Arlington Toyota should be sending them the cancellation form and that the refund would be applied at the end of my loan. Fast forward to December 2018 and I'm rear-ended and my Prius is totaled out. I go through the insurance process and when I contact my lender, they tell me that Arlington Toyota never sent them anything about a cancellation of those two services (car care for $1299 and road hazard for $337). So I contact Arlington Toyota (over the phone since I live 3 hours away from them), and they at first tell me that a manager will give me a call back. Nothing. Then I call again and they give me an email to send a copy of my cancellation form so they can take care of it. Nothing. Call again, they tell me again that a manager will be in contact with me. Nothing. These guys sold me a car and once they were done profiting from me, they were effectively done with me. They've screwed me over by not scanning/emailing/faxing this one-pager to the lender like they were supposed to do and now they don't to fix their mistake. I would NEVER recommend them to ANYBODY. They LIED to me saying that would send my cancellation form. They LIED again when they said they would call me back. Now they're avoiding me and the responsibility they have to send this for to my lender. THEY have to be the ones to send it. I doubt anybody in their right mind would be okay being out $1636 on something they effectively returned and thus never used. And all they have to do and say is : "Yes, Miss Serrano, we got your email with the form and we have sent it to your lender. Here is confirmation from our part that this has in fact been sent to Southeast Toyota Finance." More

terrible experience This was a terrible experience for me and Toyota Corp added to the dealer issues. You have my complaint to the BBB for more details. But it comes down This was a terrible experience for me and Toyota Corp added to the dealer issues. You have my complaint to the BBB for more details. But it comes down to 5 visits to get the gas gauge problem properly addressed. The first 3 visits ended when I arrived with the gauge showing about 3/4 tank full ( very slightly less) and putting 8.5 gallons of fuel into the tank. I told the Arlington Toyota rep that my research indicated a 16 gallon tank and he corrected me twice saying 14.7 gallon tank ( which I am told today that it is 16 gallons). So the tank should have read 1/2 tank or a tad less when it was reading a tad less than 3/4 and yet the rep said, " all is fine and tried to send me home, Service rep said that he had 4.5 gallons of gas into it and the gauge moved". Wrong answer, wrong analysis and already the 4th trip for this problem. I then left and added another 4 gallons of gas for a total of 8.5 when it was reading 3/4 full- clearly it should have been reading 1/2 tank. He was supposed to get right back to me and did not until I forced the issue with Toyota Corp. USA. My 4th visit was marred when I turned in my vehicle for this problem on a SUnday and then tried to get a loaner vehicle. The rental manager said I had to sign the gas was full and the car perfect without seeing the rental vehicle. I said that I would gladly sign but I wanted to see the vehicle first. He said he refused to show me the vehicle unless I signed all was perfect first ( fuel and condition of car- no problems). The rental manger insisted that I had to falsify the contract or he would never let me see the car. He didn't allow me to see the car before signing off so he refused to rent me the car- no joke. I had to get my 2019 Camry back from the service dept and go home. See the BBB complaint. The GM never apologized or indicated how he was going to prevent future fraud as I had requested in writing with my BBB complaint. On the 5th visit, I told that they could have calibrated the gas gauge at the first visit but they did not and created problems with multiple service calls. Toyota Corp. should have immediately moved to protect their reputation against fraud, dishonest dealing, falsification of rental contracts associated with a warranty call on a 2019 vehicle and did nothing to address the situation other than help arrange another ( the 5th) warranty visit for this issue. I can only say this was a terrible experience and I do not believe Toyota Corp really cares or they would have addressed the fraud/ strong arm falsification of a contract and refusing warranty service unless I falsified a legal document.
