My son was told that he needed to give him a check to test drive a car AND then was told that the guy with the dealer plate was not there. So why ask for his check??? The biggest hint is that in the trailer/office there is a Sign on the wall that says ALL SALES ARE FINAL. They tried to take advantage of a young person but was unsuccessful this time! Went to a REAL dealership where he could get professional service, a car with a warranty and a test drive with a valid NYS Driver's Lic. Like it should be. WARNING!! STAY AWAY!!!!

When I brought it to my mechanic, I found out that entire driver's side was smashed, front axle was bent and all tires are worn out uneven. I had to bring the car back to them to get axle replaced. Also the sales guy Matthew never mentioned there was only one smart key ($500 worth) until all papers were signed. He promised to get me a space one but stopped responding to my messages and never returned my calls. There were also al lot of minor issues I had to repair myself. I called several times, tried to get in touch with Matthew or Michael, the owner but noone ever returned my calls. So be aware and take your business somewhere else. This Matthew guy would call you brother/sister, give you his word, promise to get the stars from the sky, swear on Bible/Torah/Koran but as soon as you close the deal, he would ditch you. Matthew, karma is a bitch, it will bite you in the ass one day.

    I brought my 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe to Empire Hyundai for a 39.99 oil change promotion. When I…read morearrived, I was told my car "needs synthetic oil" and the price was changed to 69.99, which felt misleading but I accepted it. After an inspection, they recommended several very expensive services, which I declined. About two weeks later, I got a flat tire and discovered that my jack was missing, and another shop then found that both front fender liners were also missing. I had not taken the car anywhere else after the oil change, and I am certain these items were present before the visit. I am sure they removed the jack and fender liners because I declined their repair recommendations, and I consider this an unethical practice that has destroyed my trust in this service department. I bought my car from this dealership two years ago and was very satisfied at that time; however, when I returned for this oil change, I saw that the service area had been renovated and I am not sure if management changed, but my experience with their service has completely changed for the worse. Update: I filed a complaint with the dealership, and the service manager, Marcelo, reached out to me. He took the issue very seriously and asked me to come in, even promising to fix everything for me before the investigation was completed. I really appreciate how he handled the situation and believe this is how a good dealership should operate. I am updating my rating to 5 stars because they did everything they could to make things right, and this has rebuilt my confidence in returning there for future maintenance.

    While I truly appreciate the solution and the professionalism shown toward the end, I do wish it…read morehadn't required escalation to receive what felt like prime customer service, especially given that this was a safety-related issue.

The staff were super friendly and responsive, really attentive to the customer's needs. Everything down to the atmosphere was inviting and on point. A very special thanks to Yacine B, the most helpful sales rep I've ever had the pleasure of interacting with. Hillside Toyota is the standard of what a great car shopping experience should be.

    BEWARE -- PLEASE READ BEFORE DOING BUSINESS WITH HILLSIDE TOYOTA…read more I went to Hillside Toyota about four days ago because I was interested in leasing an electric vehicle. We had already discussed the vehicle, and after the dealership closed I was told to go home and that they would contact me the following day. They did call me back and told me to come into the dealership. They would not discuss the monthly payment with me over the phone. I came in excited and prepared to lease the vehicle. Once I arrived, I sat down with Hasim, the finance advisor, and was told my lease payment would be approximately $1,070 per month. Because that payment seemed extremely high, I specifically asked to see the money factor and an itemized breakdown of the lease so I could understand exactly why the monthly payment was so high. They refused to show me the money factor and refused to provide me with the itemized bill I requested. That was a major red flag for me. Instead, Yasin, the sales associate, switched seats with Hasim and began explaining the numbers to me himself. That made me even more cautious because I was asking for the actual lease figures and documentation, not simply a verbal explanation. I was also told that certain numbers were based on what the bank approved. Consumers should understand that while the lender can determine credit approval and financing terms, the dealership still controls important parts of the transaction, including the negotiated selling price and dealership-added products or fees. The following day, Hasim contacted me about another vehicle, a Toyota Corolla. I was discussing a three-year lease with 15,000 miles per year, and the figures presented to me would have resulted in approximately $20,000 in lease payments. Considering the Corolla I was looking at was priced around the mid-$20,000 range, that seemed extremely expensive to me for a vehicle I would still have to return at the end of the lease unless I paid the additional buyout amount. The three employees I personally dealt with were Hasim, the finance advisor; Yasin, the sales associate; and Mike, the finance manager. Based on my experience, I strongly recommend that consumers be extremely cautious when dealing with them. My biggest concern was simple: I was being asked to consider a $1,070 monthly lease payment, but when I asked to see the money factor and an itemized bill showing how they arrived at that payment, they refused to show me that information. Before signing any lease, ask for everything in writing: the selling price, money factor, residual value, acquisition fee, taxes, dealer fees, amount due at signing, mileage allowance, and total of all payments. BEWARE. BE CAUTIOUS. DO YOUR OWN MATH. GET EVERYTHING IN WRITING. DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING UNTIL YOU UNDERSTAND EXACTLY WHERE EVERY DOLLAR IS GOING. This review is based on my personal experience and the figures and information that were presented to me at Hillside Toyota

But that left a sour taste in my mouth. As soon as I parked on the lot to get a new car, L.S. greeted me. I made it clear that I wanted to be out of there in under three hours, no nonsense, no bait and switch, etc. He said that's fine with him. Turns out they have all new management in there. They were super cool and the price we agreed on ended up being more than what I signed for. Meaning: I signed a lease for a lower amount than they told me it would be, go figure. I had a straight forward experience. Everyone was very respectful of me. Personable, professional, and quick. I dealt with Jamie, Jason, and LS. Also the older guy who sat at the front. Everyone was really cool and didn't jerk me around. They even brought us over some soda and when I needed time to think, they reminded me of my three hour deadline(LOL). My experience talking numbers with Jason was straight forward, he gave me options and we got the deal done. I'd recommend this place to anyone. Go in there. State your intentions, be clear about what you want and tell them how you plan to do business and they're going to give you what you ask for. They're business people. We want cars, they want money. It's a simple transaction. I look forward to going back in three years. I hope they keep the same crew in place because if they do, I'm sure their reputation will improve.
