Came in wanting a new car but completely clueless on what car and or if I shouldLease or buy .. immediately i was greeted by Derick! He was friendly and very knowledgeable.. what made the process easier was him knowing the inventory that way I didn’t have to wait forever and be shown magazines .. I end up leaving with a newer car than I thought I’d actually qualified for πŸ€— definitely will be referring my friends and family ! Down below is Derick ! Ask for him !Thanks again

I got scammed there, Avoid this place please because they are nothing but a scam place. All they do there is to get the most money out of you. Don’t ever buy a car on credit because they will charge you double of the original price. They have different prices online and when you go there they tell you the cheap one we have online is sold but we have a better one with good prices and that’s where the scam starts. Don’t finance a car from there unless you have a lawyer and professional accountant with you lol

Looking for a gently used Prius, I went to Downtown Auto Center. I had seen the auto while browsing online. Still somewhat surprised to find it in my hometown, precisely as listed and ready to drive. It was pristine and low mileage to boot. I found the staff to be no pressure, ready when you are. I test drove with my husband and called back 2 days later to make an offer. Glad to meet Richard Polk my VIP, who made me feel at ease. He’s flexible and knowledgeable. We reached an agreement without delay. JD was The Closer. New to the firm, thorough and a treat to work with. My advice is do your homework, know what you want, what you can afford and go for it!

When I first came to the dealership I had no idea what car would serve my needs best . Lucky for me I was greeted by Derrick . He is very knowledgeable in his work and was able to guide me in the right direction. He is a fantastic sales man and he was very helpful. Thanks to him my family and I will be able to ride comfortably in a vehicle that fits us perfectly.

Derrick was a great salesman !! He was very resourceful and helpful, before coming to Toyota, I went to many places to look for a car that saves gas and is very reliable with no luck. That all changed when I arrived. He was able to find a car that fit my needs and I left very satisfied with my purchase. I came to the right place to find a sales man like Derrick.

Worst dealership ever!!! If I could give them negative stars I would. Do not buy your cars here. They promised me they were going to fix my door handle and also my windshield. Every time I would give them a call they would say their manager was busy and that he will give me a call back later in the day. It’s about to be a year and I still haven’t gotten a call from them. And about a month ago my 2019 charger engine has metal inside so now I have to get a whole new engine. They do not fix their cars before selling them. I don’t not recommend this place at all!!!

Everyone in the service department is completely incompetent. Had to take my truck in 5 times to repair a recall part. They keep my car for multiple days and they still can’t figure it out. Complete waste of my valuable time! They could care less how long you wait or how long it takes.

I just leased a Toyota Corolla from them. I have been searching around the Bay Area and been in almost all the dealerships on the East Bay. They gave me the lowest rate among other dealership. The sale’s guy RICHARD was very helpful and put a lot of effort in matching the numbers. Also the manager JD is a very nice and experienced guy. I was very lucky to get my car from them 😊

We had a great experience with Richard Polk. He was knowledgeable, professional, genuinely kind and worked with us when it came time to begin the paperwork and financing.

With low inventory and high prices Derek got me a great car at a very reasonable rate. Im really lucky I got him as a salesman. He was relaxed, open and efficient. The entire process took 2 hours and I believe I got an awesome price and a great looking car.I recommend Toyota and it’s affiliate the suburu dealership next door. I’ve now leased 3 vehicles from this location and its been a great experience. Even the people who work in the service centers are friendly and professional. Im really a loyal customer here, especially after today

Review β„–15

Very poor customer service. I found a car on their website that I was interested in purchasing, however I live out of town. I inquired online and was contacted by no less than 3 people to let me know about their awesome VIP event going on. On each of these phone calls I let them know that I was very interested in purchasing a car that day if I could get interior and exterior pictures of it. All 3 times they said they were sending my message to a sales rep who would get back to me right away. I waited several hours after the last call and called back again to let them know I was still waiting. This happened twice over a 3 hours period and both times I was told they are trying to locate the car (??) after I was told it was parked right out front and is beautiful. Third and forth times I called I was transferred to someone who couldnt sell me the car but said they would transfer me to someone who would take pictures and take a deposit over the phone to hold the car. Both calls failed when they were transferred. I gave up and purchased another car locally. What is frustrating is that I would have bought the car that day if only they had competent people working there.

Derick had a great attitude and was extremely helpful.

Bait and switch operators. When we called they said they have the car in their lot. We told them we will be driving for an hour and wanted to make sure they have the car. When we got there they did not have the car and on top of that they were asking for a ridiculous money (15-20K) over MSRP for when a new car would be available one month later. I will not even give them a single star.

We went to Toyota of Oakland and walked out with a new car all because of Derick. He is kind, patient, and makes you feel like he is on your side. He does not pressure you and he’s so respectful. We have had experiences with other salespeople at other locations that talk to down to us but Derick doesn’t do that. He truly sees the humanity in people and is just a good person. Highly recommend going there and asking for him specifically!

Went into Downtown Oakland Subaru and was immediately met with a warm welcome and hospitality. Upon entering I was helped by Derek which had great knowledge on the car I was interested in and with his expertise in the car sales practice we were able to reach a deal and drove home in a brand new car. I can’t exprese enough the dedication and love Derek and the employees at Downtown Subaru have and would 100% come back because of their service.

Terrible. The 1st salesman gives you estimates. The next one then tells you about the add on’s. They tried to charge me $5000 because of limited stock. Lol no. They also low balled me on the trade in. Luckily I went to another Toyota dealership 1st to get a trade estimate. If you go there, know what you want, know what it’s worth or advertised for, I had to show them their own add.

There seems to be a lot of negative reviews, Honestly its all about which employee is helping you, if you need service done to your car but hesitant to take your car there then make sure you ask for the service advisor Kriss, he goes out of his way to make sure your satisfied and happy. This dealership is quite small so it does get hectic and super busy. Kriss will even stay after closing hours to make sure your vehicle was properly serviced and detailed so when you go pick it up your 100% satisfied leaving with a smile on your face.

This dealership reached out to be via TrueCar. I called them to get a final price on the car. I told them I would drive out to them once they give me their final price because I was 2 hours away from them. I was told that they don’t provide over the phone prices.Next day I get a call from somebody who claimed to be from this dealership. They provided me with the lowest offer as compared to other dealerships in the area.I called them to get more details and was told they don’t have internet department and don’t provide over the phone prices.They are doing some shady business here. Calling potential customers and offering them prices they cannot honor in order to get them in the dealership.I am still not able to figure out how they reached out to me via email when they don’t have internet department.

I reached out because I wanted to buy the 2022 Toyota Tundra from them when it comes out. I specifically mentioned this in my initial message. Then they call me several times in the middle of my work day to try to sell me on another car. I politely told the guy yesterday to look at my initial message and that Im only interested in the new Tundra. Long story short, they called me again the next day to try to sell me on another car. Oh well, this was a free sale for them on the 2022 Tundra and they lost it. I will now order from the other Oakland or San Leandro Toyota dealer. I knew what I wanted, but all they cared about was making a sale right now, so they lost my future business.

Buyers BEWARE!!! Abdul the finance manager, did what most people really hate and that is getting SCAMMED! I signed a paperwork where it says that the car is being bought at the agreed price of $45,000. Abdul is upset that he couldn’t persuade me to buy all other things that the dealership is offering. For example, (maintenance, insurances, Gap, etc..). Experienced buyers knows that it is not WORTH IT to buy what the dealership offers.Then, the most absurd thing happens 5 to 10 minutes after I signed the paperwork. He tore off the paperwork that I just signed and told me he couldn’t give me the deal we agreed upon. After that, he printed a copy of the paperwork in which he did some adjustments without my consent or knowledge on numbers.I trusted Abdul and that was one of my biggest mistakes. He changed the on the copy of the contract price from $45,000 to $50,000 after he tore the 1st copy that I signed. That is $5,000 more than the mark up value. NOTE: Covid19 disrupted the market and most of the dealership are adding $10,000 to $20,000 dollars more than the value of the car.Considering how much experienced I have buying new cars with car dealerships; I still made a mistake by not spending more time and reading the contract before signing it (Especially, when Abdul tore off the first contract that I signed). Yes, I did not read the 2nd copy of the paperwork he gave me. Please do not do the same mistakes that I did. READ THE CONTRACT!I will post my review on Reddit as well with complete evidence I was able to collect about the fraud that Abdul did.Also, just to add. Mr. Abdul threatened me and told me that he doesn’t care where I came from. He even called me stupid Asian and go back where I came from. He was mad because he keeps telling me that I keep cutting him off while he is talking. The only reason why I was cutting him off is because I do not even have time to talk or say my point of view. He keeps on talking nonstop and this is part of his strategy to persuade you to believe him. PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THIS DEALERSHIP!Sincerely yours,

BEWARE!! This place is a complete scam. I filled the online form and someone immediately responded. They lied to me about the price of the car just to get me to come to the dealership. Once at the dealership, they wanted $10,000 markup and $5,000 worth of dealer installed accessories. They wanted me to pay $399 for Nitrogen in car tires. I have news for this dealership, costco puts Nitrogen in tires for FREE. This place is a disgrace.

Review β„–49

Ive come here twice: once for myself and once with someone else. Both times have been extremely negative and when we left without making a sale the people working there could be heard mocking the negotiation. You cant get a question answered about a car without being asked to sign a commitment to buy. In my first experience, the dealership posted an ad online that was very competitively priced. I come in only to have them say it was sold but they can show me other inventory. I checked the site again later and the same vehicle was listed for a much higher price! Was this intentional luring customers in? Maybe. But even if it wasnt they didnt have the self-respect to tell me they priced the car incorrectly and tell me the new price. I feel bad for anyone who goes in there and gets duped into buying a car $10k above MSRP. Go literally anywhere else.

The easiest dealership I’ve ever worked with, with also the most friendly and energetic people I’ve worked with. Negotiated via text before coming in, came in and was shown the car, features, and a test drive by Jeff Wiest, and after no pressure and no BS, finished the deal with Abdul in finance.I highly recommend asking to work personally with Jeff, he was super easy to work with and was energetic the whole time and never pressured us in any step of the way, and made us feel welcome from start to finish.

Just bought a Toyota from Downtown Toyota of Oakland. The whole experience on a Monday evening took 4.5hours. I went in at 5pm and was out around 9.30pm. If you go around 5pm on w Monday I’d recommend eating before hand or bringing snacks with you. The test drive was good, and went as expected. Derick was a tough negotiator and did a good job explaining the car price etc.. Like any negotiation process, be prepared to leave and not buy the car or product if the seller isn’t meeting the price you want. I enjoyed my car buying process and walked away with a good Toyota.Although, I did find the previous owners address and registration info in the car which feels like it should have been removed.

After signing all the paperwork and and paid Will S. didn’t told me that it only have 1 key and he only told me that after when everything is done and didn’t notice that even the gas is almost empty. After few days I tired to contact Will S. he never responded to me at all even every time I tried to contact him. Which is he said I can contact him anytime.

Terrible customer service, dont waste your time. I inquired about a specific vehicle a week ago and they called me to come in same day. When I got there I waited around for 30 minutes and then they told me to take a look at the car across the street while I wait. No one ever came out to meet me (waited another 30 minutes) and they sent me to the wrong car. Went back inside, asked someone else, who said the car I called about was not even there. They continued to call me every single day for a week urging me to come in for their vip sales event telling me that car was there now. The day of my second appointment I called again to make sure, got thrown around on the phone to different depts and then hung up on. When I finally spoke to inventory, the car was in fact not there. Super unprofessional, disorganized, and rude.

Criminal organization from the bottom to the top. Bought a new vehicle they (Abdul Ferozy) sold an add on alarm similar to a lojack for $799 with satellite tracking and remote cutoff. They installed a $15 tilt sensor. They refused to refund the money for this obvious fraud. Took them to small claims court and won the case easily. After the verdict they tried to negotiate a settlement. They didnt understand what a court order was and were still trying their best to cheat me out of money. Lets just say the court didnt like their games. If you have a problem with these criminals, take them to small claims court. Most of the five star reviews you see here are fake, dig through these reviews to see what this stealership is about.If you have a problem with Downtown Toyota do your homework and take them to small claims court. They have a bad reputation, they will lose the judgement and you will reclaim your money.

They mixed up our Prius with another one during a routine oil change schedule. The car ran out of oil a few hundred miles later on a busy freeway at 5 am. A nightmare. They left clear documents in the car proving their mixup but refused to take responsibility. (They just plain lied.) We had to go to court. We won. They appealed. Their lawyer tried to cut a secret deal with us, which led to a formal complaint with the state bar. We won the appeal. Both judges slammed them. A year later we got a check. But the time and effort and trouble for our family cannot be compensated. We bought the car there and had it serviced exclusively there. Nevertheless, they just tried to hose us. A horrible company that gives car dealers a very bad name. I hate giving bad reviews but this place is the worst.

We do all our business here and are reminded why every time!! Who buys a new car in 3.5 hours!! We did at Broadway Toyota!! Exceptional service every time!! This is our 3rd killer deal here!! Don’t go anywhere else!!

Kevin was so helpful and fun to work with. He walked me through the process and made sure I was taken care of at this dealership. I was so happy at the end of the transaction. Feel like my life has upgraded. I went from driving a 2006 Honda Odyssey to a 2020 BMW 330i!

Stay away if possible. Between pushy finance managers doing hard sells on extended warranty and service plans and warranties that cant be cancelled on dealer installed stuff you probably dont want on every car; you should look elsewhere.

Stay away from this dealership, especially away from Rony Melara, Rogelio Rangel and Abdul Ferozy. My 65 year old Asian mother purchased a car here two weeks ago and they took advantage by verbally telling her an out the door $38k price plus trade in value of $9k. She was so happy that it would cost her $29k total and they urged her to take the car the same night, so she quickly signed the contract. Turns out these three guys teamed up and wrote the contract as $45,800 with a $7800 trade in value, equalling $38k total price. The retail price was only $36k on this car, so I can’t imagine why it cost $45,800 out the door. What ever happen to honest and fair business? Rony, who dealt with my mother, has been avoiding us. Rogelio called my mother rude for expressing her frustration and Abdul said go get an attorney if you want to do something about it. I know this does not align with Toyotas core values. Shameful employees, very disappointing and I would stay away from this dealership. My family will no longer get our cars serviced here. We have been customers for over 10 years. Buyers beware.

Kevin is so awesome! He helped me with my very first car dealership purchase and I cannot thank him enough! He made the process so much easier than I had anticipated. He was so patient and answered all of the questions I had in regards to my new baby (car) and all the financing process. It also helped that he had a sense of humor. It felt like I was talking to a long time friend rather than a car salesman!If youre shopping for a car, I definitely recommend reaching out to Kevin Hong! You wont regret it! 😊

This dealership place is the worst place to buy a car in the entire state. They gave u a lot of false information. I was a first time car buyer and I planned to take the car another day after I signed the contract. I asked the sales agent to gave me the contract I signed and he told me I can’t take it and will give it to me when I come back to take the car. But, He has the duty to give it to me right away under the law which I knew later in time. I didn’t know at that time that I have a right to demand it. Therefore, they are not truthful and I can say they lied me to believe in a certain way. Don’t buy a car from them.
