We dropped it off at 10:15 and were told it would take 2-2 1/2 hours. After waiting for 4 1/2 hours, we called to see if it was done. After several transfers to different workers within the building, we were told they had to check on it. It is now 3:30. We called back 15 minutes later to see if they had found out if it was done. They still didn't know. At 4:30 they called us and said that they would be getting to it soon. At 5:15 we called back and they said they needed to order a part and couldn't finish it this day. It was then 5:45 by the time we could pick it up. We live 100 miles away. Now we have to take another day to bring it in for the issues that should have been fixed on the day the appointment was made for. This was completely unacceptable and uncalled for. There was no compensation for our gas for now another 100 mile trip The communication with us was awful and the organization there was horrible. I would never recommend buying anything from or taking your vehicle in to this business. The service here is very disappointing.

After two hours of waiting for the oil change to be done , I was then told my oil change was not able to be completed for fear of them breaking a part. And that I would have to come back for another oil change and if they broke the part during the next oil change that I would be responsible for paying for that part. I was charged $130 for an incomplete job, and only after questioning the bill did they waive the labor fee of $30. I have serviced my vehicle at other Toyota stores religiously and have never experienced this before. I held off on making a review for two days in order to speak with the Service Department Manager and that conversation consisted of being told that the best I can do is talk to my previous Toyota to have them cover the cost, but I am still responsible for being charged with the previous charge of the oil change, the new oil change following once they get the cap in, and the charge for the filter cap if it breaks while being serviced by them. I expect more out of a Toyota service department. UPDATE I took my Tacoma to Cedric Theel Toyota in Bismarck, ND to finish the job. I showed up early, and they took my vehicle immediately. So already off to a better start. Cedric Theel were aware that Minot Toyota Center claimed my oil filter cap was too tight, but came back and made me aware they had no problem removing it and that the extra part they ordered would not be necessary. Furthermore, after speaking with the technician, I learned that while the tires were rotated front to back previously, they were not rotated using the more effective rear-wheel drive cross-pattern (rear to front straight, front to rear crossed). This is the recommended method for non-directional tires on RWD vehicles to promote even tread wear. It wasn't a major issue, but it's worth noting for those looking for more thorough and efficient service that you won't find it at Minot Toyota Center.

Took the truck to their service center and they said it would be less than 30 minutes. It was well over that. Receptionist came back and said the fob wouldn't connect to the BCM computer, that I just purchased from THEM, and needed to bring it back the next day. No diagnostic code on dash or fault on my app. They wanted another $100 just to look at it. Found a locksmith in town and they had the fob programmed in less than 2 minutes. Took longer to tell them what the dealership said than it did for them to be done. Don't go here. Either their techs don't know what the hell they're doing or the business is out to rip people off. If I could put a negative review I would. Update: The receptionist texted me saying they still wanted the $75 for TRYING to program it.

We have an 08 accord that we had Ryan Honda put a new starter appx 15 months ago . It was my father in laws car at the time and like many of generation he wants only OEM parts so he proceeds and takes it to the honda dealership, makes sense right? Well he's old and doesn't drive a whole lot so yes this started was 15 months old but it hadn't even had 4k put on it yet and now it's out again. I received all of the maintenance paperwork when I purchased a vehicle from my father-in-law so I had the receipt from when the starter was put in 15 months ago and it totaled $630 150 something in labor $425 for the part and the rest tax well when the starter went out this time, I pulled it out and not only Was it not knowing I'm starter? Like my father-in-law has been told was being put in his vehicle It was a cheap starter from AutoZone. not even one of the better ones. so I called Ryan Honda And ask them what they're gonna do about it and they notify me that they are going to put a new starter in from AutoZone and that AutoZone is paying for the labor we said some thing about why did we not get what we paid for put into the vehicle and the response we got was because we didn't ask for that which our rebutle was so why were we charged for an OEM part and given a bottom barrel part from an auto parts store and the answer we were given was yeah all of the dealerships charge. Then he can a laughed it off. So the day comes finally today, but they're gonna put another AutoZone starter in and apparently the labor is covered so I migrate whatever at least the car will be running again. So we have the car towed up to Ryan Honda So they could , put the new starter, The old one I had already removed. I get a call after about two hours. I guess my wife does actually and she told him the car is ready to be picked up great so I head that way and I talk to the guy at the service counter and he told me that my battery is bad in the car actually OK not a big deal would've been nice to know before I came up here but OK and then he's like you also need to reconnect all the hoses and stuff that you took out when you remove the starter and I said what do you mean? He said well we were only told to install a new starter we didn't Reconnect anything that you just connected and I said well that stuff needed to be disconnected to get all started rows so I saved you guys time. And the service manager tells me no Our technician said that that's gonna take a lot of time to put all that stuff back together and he just doesn't have time to do it. I absolutely couldn't believe what I was hearing so they called me to pick up my car that technically they didn't even fix on a warranty job and now they're saying that they're not gonna put it back together because I gave them the favor of tearing out the part for them, I know how long it took me to take that out and I know how long it was gonna take me to hook it back up and I know how long it would take a competent tech. So I literally time myself on my watch and I went outside to where my car was not running not able to be started where I was told that I need to hook all these hoses back up that we're going to be very time consuming. I started the timer on my watch and it took me two minutes and 57 seconds and I had the car running. They couldn't be bothered to even follow through and finish a job with Ian screwed up and upcharched us by 65% YEAH THATS RIGHT They up charged us 65% on that part. Then had AutoZone replace the park for free and pay for the labor at their dealership. They probably made at least an hours labor off of, but couldn't even see the job through.. Whatever OK so they didn't see the job through how much I was of charge on a part there's gotta be some laws on that type of shit. Ryan is doing a lot of dirty shit up there And to be completely honest, I'm a dad and outside of that I don't have a lot of ways to spend my time so if it means me campaigning against Ryan then, so be it because they're fucking criminals dude I am absolutely just appalled by the shit they did. it was unreal but like I said, every word of this is absolutely real.
