Never in my life have I dealt with such blatant liars, and cheats. From day one, this dealer was obviously dishonest. I did run the Carfax on my vehicle prior to purchase. I was fully aware that said vehicle had a salvage title, and was not deterred by it, for the purchase price. Upon stating this to the dealer, however, they appeared shocked, and claimed to have no idea what a salvage title was. I was not born yesterday, and I find it rather difficult to swallow the fact that a used car dealer is unaware of what a salvage title means. I suppose this outright lie should have turned me off to the vehicle, however, I felt that once I received my tags, I would never see them again. I bit my tongue, and bought the car. After reading the owners manual, I discovered that I was sold a car that had only a valet key. Someone else may have picked up on this right away, however this is my first foreign car. I sucked it up, and bought a master key, a fob, and paid for programming. Within a day or two this vehicle was misfiring quite badly. When I returned to the dealer, they diagnosed the problem, and installed 2 used ignition coils, pulled from another car on their lot. The following weekend, I took the car to a reputable dealer for service by mileage. At this time, I was informed that I had been sold a car (inspected, and road ready, mind you) with 2 seized brake calipers in the rear, and a leaking rack and pinion. I took care of the calipers myself, and contacted Planet Auto to make arrangements to have the steering rack replaced inside of my 30 day warrantee. This dealership screwed around for Two weeks, giving me days to bring the car in for service, and then changing it when I got there, saying, go home, and bring it back another day. Finally, I got a date, and was told to drop it off Tuesday, 7/8. When I showed up, I was told, yet again, to drop it off Wednesday, instead. Now, since dropping it off, the mechanics at Planet Auto have installed at least 2 faulty steering racks, from the junkyard. They also cut a perfectly good exhaust pipe, rather than unbolting it, as part of this hatchet job. They have given zero communication on the status of my car, and getting Tony on the phone has become a chore that I would liken to pulling teeth. On Saturday, 7/12, I made the trip, via cab, to Planet Auto, and spoke with Tony, face to face. I was, at that time, assured that I could go home, and that my car would be ready no later than that evening. This was approximately 5PM. Before 7, I made a trip back, as the office was closed. What I found was that everyone had left, the dealership was closed for the weekend, and not so much as a courtesy call, to let me know that my car would, in fact, not be ready. On Monday, July 14, I made the trip back to Planet Auto Sales. I was quickly greeted on the lot by Tony, and my car was nowhere in sight. I was quickly informed that his mechanics had stayed past 7PM on the 12'th to get my car finished, and that he was appalled that no one had called me. I just bit my tongue, and thanked him, lol. He said that since I had not picked it up Saturday evening, they had now taken it to get aligned, and that his mechanic would be back any minute. Well, leaving the dealership some time later, I discovered that every warning light on my dash was lit, the car felt horrible, the steering was grinding, and was farther out of line than ever. I continued to work, as I had already missed time for this car. Upon getting to work, I also discovered several lug nuts missing from the passenger front wheel. On the morning of 7/15/14, I took the car to Browns Toyota, for actual repairs. The gleaming highlights are as follows; the exhaust pipe they cut was a $2000. part, which includes the catalytic converter. The tie rod ends were on the wrong sides, there was still a leak in the steering system, and this was disguised by the fluid system being left empty. Other repairs include damage to the spring cable inside my steering wheel. I can only assume that the steering wheel was repositioned to give an illusion of alignment. Repairs totaling over $4000 in parts and labor, when Toyota had quoted $1300 to do the steering rack. Planet Auto is the most shining example that I have ever seen, of an absolutely horrible business, top to bottom. Tony should not be allowed to sell cars, and their "mechanics" have no business working on a 10 speed bike
