bought a certified Toyota used car from Huntington Toyota in Huntington Station NY, i use the word certified loosely because this car definitely wasn't certified per Toyota standards. the front tires were 3/32 of tread depth. Toyota certified standard is 5/32. The steering wheel shimmied all the way home with a thumping feel with it. Could be a bent rim or bad tire belt. LENNY SAID IT COULD BE A BALL JOINT OR TIE ROD. WHAT? this is a certified Toyota??? Sunroof rattles loudly, they couldn't have possibly missed it. Toyota standards is to fix all rattles before certification. Wrong drivers floor mat installed and does not fit the cars grommet holes to keep the mat from crawling up the gas pedal. A Toyota recall that they ignored!
This Black paint exterior of the car which upon delivery had a scrape on passenger side front bumper(8 inches), rear drivers wheel well molding(4 inches), gouged scratches on the hood(3 inches). the scrapes show as white because of the wax residue they applied over them. then the drivers door has 3 deep dings(like a BB gun hit it). Toyota standards for certification is the paint to be new like luster with no scratches on bumpers or moldings.
Upon talking to Lenny the General manager he denies the tread depth issue,the paint and dings saying he has no idea what i did to it after i drove off the lot. These issues i brought up to Huntington Toyota the next day after delivery. I have reported all these issues to the Better Business Bureau, Connecticut States Attorney General Blumenthal, and Toyota Corporation. Also had a remote start installed for their price $575 they told me its a toyota remote start(its and audiovox remote start cost $75) This ripoff company has 23 BBB complaints in less than 3 years! CERTIFIED TOYOTA MEANS NOTHING! and HUNTINGTON TOYOTA SHOULD BE PUT OUT OF BUSINESS FOR FALSE ADVERTISING ABOUT CERTIFIED CAR THAT ISNT!! HUNTINGTON TOYOTA GIVES TOYOTA QUALITY AND CERTIFICATION A VERY BAD REPUTATION.

gone down to the post entitled- "WOW! Yet another extremely concerned Lexus/Toyota owner getting the word out", and watched the two YOUTUBE videos?


It looks like four people were killed in that accident which took place in San Diego. They were in a Lexus. And others who own Toyotas were interviewed too. One of them owns a Toyota Prius. Another owned a Toyota Camry. And I believe one owns a Toyota Highlander.

Make sure to watch both YOUTUBE videos and listed to the 911 emergency call, okay?
