This is a report about a car dealership that I bought a car from in 2002. I really wish that I had known about Rip-off Report at that time.
Now that I do know about it, I want to warn anyone who is considering buying, or leasing, a car from Younger Toyota should be very cautious, and watch out for agressive, lying salespeople, and finance managers.
The salespeople and finance manager at this dealership ripped me off by duping me into buying a car that I didn't even know how to drive.
The car had a manual transmission, and I had never driven anything but an automatic.
These people used a combination of an agressive picth for early lease termination of my current vehicle, and insistance that a couple of their salespeople could teach me how to drive a stick in a couple of hours in the area around the dealership.
Then they added insult to injury by using some sort of auto fico scores voodoo to jack my interest rate up to over 14%. The last car I had bought a car from a dealer in Santa Cruz, CA, my interest rate was 7%!
My big mistate here was believing the lies that they told me. They somehow convinced me that I was just fine with driving a stick shift, and rushed me through the loan process to keep me from noticing the interest rate they were charging me.
I realized less than 2 days later that I could not drive the car without risking my life. I had also discovered that they had cheated me on both the price of the car, and the interest rate.
I called them and told them I wanted to return the car, and was told that I couldn't do that. Then awhile later I found out that was just another of their lies, but by then it was too late.
This car dealer ended up causing me a financial nightmare, that is still haunting me today, almost 4 years later. They also proved to be total ***holes, and as un-helpful as possible.
As I said -- if you go to this dealership, beware of the snakes!
