I am sharing my experience publicly now as I have exhausted all formal channels without resolution,…read moredespite all my good faith efforts. If only I had seen the many other negative reviews before -- several customers experienced similar issues, but mine was the most extreme case of abuse of trust and power. The business is not even accredited by the BBB and has already complaints left unaswered. On January 11, 2025, I test-drove, and on January 15, I purchased a "Certified" Mazda3 GS from Ken Shaw Toyota (2336 St Clair Ave W, Toronto, ON M6N 1K8). The vehicle was delivered with a Safety Standards Certificate (SSC). The salesperson, Manpreet Kaur, reassured me personally that the vehicle was fully certified and safe. I trusted that expertise -- as a newcomer female unfamiliar with the mechanics -- only to discover later that the car was, in fact, sold 'as-is' and unfit with undisclosed mechanical defects. Within weeks, multiple dangerous issues surfaced. An independent inspection (requested by the MTO) confirmed the vehicle was not roadworthy and could not receive a valid SSC. Despite this, the vehicle had been advertised and sold as certified. I attempted to resolve this through all possible agencies OMVIC, MTO, Consumer Protection Ontario, my MPP's office, the Ontario Ombudsman, and legal aid. Despite acting in good faith and even requesting cancellation within 30 days, the dealership used delay tactics, threats, and blame-shifting -- never once offering a safe or legal return option. At one point, they falsely claimed I refused to return the car -- yet never provided a safe or lawful solution. Driving a dangerous, uncertified car was not an option, especially given the findings of the independent garage and the MTO's own request for inspection. Even after all of this, the dealership pressured my bank to reverse a refund request based on proof of misrepresentation. Their lawyer has since sent repeated emails that deflect responsibility and attempt to intimidate me, despite my clear efforts to resolve this through proper channels. I was clear from the start that I was a female newcomer, a first-time buyer, and not a mechanic. I relied entirely on their certification and integrity. Today, I am left unemployed, covering the storage cost of a dangerous car, while they operate without consequences and continue their business as if nothing happened. I am now preparing legal action to seek a full refund and compensation for the damage caused. This experience has been emotionally and financially devastating with no humanity or fairness. I trusted this dealership and was met with unfair treatment and discriminatory disregard for my safety and rights. OMVIC, Consumer Protection Ontario, and other agencies must take action against dealerships that abuse power and mislead vulnerable buyers -- especially newcomers and women. Buyers! Please do your research before trusting this dealership Ken Shaw Toyota with your safety, your money, or your trust. You are only an added transaction.

I recently visited Ken Shaw Lexus and dealt with Raymond Fan. As many know, it is not usually a…read moregood experience when dealing with car salesman. In fact, I had recently had been to a few car dealerships and was not impressed. However, my experience with Raymond at Ken Shaw Lexus was far from that! Raymond was professional, courteous, and most importantly honest. I felt Raymond was fair and gave me a great deal. Since my purchase Raymond has remained in contact and been very helpful. I walked away from the purchase of my new vehicle actually feeling great. If you are in the market looking for a Lexus I highly recommend dealing with Raymond Fan.

TAKE YOUR BUSINESS ELSEWHERE! I strongly advise against…read morepurchasing from this dealership. My experience with Sam and Carlo was incredibly frustrating and unprofessional. Sam's customer service was the worst I've ever encountered; during a call about my potential purchase, he yelled at me for asking simple questions. My boyfriend and I visited to look at a Mercedes B250, which was listed at $14,995, plus certification and tax. I confirmed this price during our test drive. However, when it came time to sign the contract, an unexpected $400 charge for rust-proof spraying appeared. When I inquired about this, Sam insisted it was "mandatory" for all their vehicles and not optional. Regrettably, I signed the contract and placed a $1,000 deposit. Less than 24 hours later, I requested an itemized bill of sale to clarify the charges before making the final payment. Sam refused to provide it. When I mentioned I would bring my mother to see the documents in person, he suddenly agreed to remove the rust-proofing charge. However, the revised total he sent still didn't add up. When I texted to clarify the breakdown and asked for the CARFAX report--which I had not received at the time of signing--Sam called me immediately and yelled, questioning why I was asking so many questions. I reminded him that I had a right to this information, especially for such a significant purchase. His aggressive tone made me uncomfortable, and I knew I didn't want to continue doing business with them. When I went to the dealership with my parents, Sam refused to refund my deposit, contradicting himself by claiming he had told me the spray was optional. His behavior was deceitful and disrespectful. He changed his answers to please my parents, showcasing classic scam tactics to salvage the deal. The entire situation escalated quickly, revealing how desperate they were to secure my money without addressing my valid concerns. It's shocking how I was treated after being compliant until I started asking questions. I ended up losing $1,000 in this process. Furthermore, the CARFAX situation raised red flags. Their listing claimed "!!!Carfax Clean No Accidents!!! !!!", yet there was no link to the report on their website, unlike most dealerships. During my initial visit, I was never shown this CARFAX, nor was it offered. They expected me to purchase the vehicle without providing crucial information regarding its accident and service history. When I requested a copy of the CARFAX, their defensive reaction only heightened my suspicion. As a customer, I have every right to know the vehicle's history, and their refusal to provide this information is concerning. Their misleading claims about the CARFAX are designed to lure buyers in without transparency. PLEASE learn from my experience and avoid this dealership at all costs.

They are extremely open and honest and transparent with the vehicles they are selling and make the purchasing process simple and efficient. Being an out of province buyer, I put a lot of faith in Carlo to ensure there were no surprises when flying across the country to pick up the vehicle. They sell very clean, low mileage vehicles with proper safety standard certificates. Carlo truly went above and beyond to make the entire process amazing. Really appreciated his no BS honesty and openness to answer questions and provide any details required. We communicated back and forth remotely through email, phone calls and texts to work out all the details and he made sure I was comfortable with everything. Can't say enough good things. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. 5 STARS! Go buy a vehicle from them... seriously you won't regret it. :) Thanks Carlo.

I've had a few questions post sale and his friendly and helpful demeanour hasn't changed a bit. Thank you Carlo for treating me fairly, respectfully and restoring my faith in GREAT customer service.
