| | | Poor service from dealership My daughters Yaris was serviced at Western Toyota, Cameron Toll, Edinburgh.
After the service she noticed that the body work was scratched and reported
it there and then.
This morning she went out and found that a tyre was flat and had a screw
embedded in it. OK that could have happened anywhere, but when she went to
change the tyre (got her boyfriend to do this), she found that the toolkit
was missing from the car. She borrowed my toolkit, and when she went tom
take off the tyre, found that the wheel nuts were only hand tight.
This was a full service that wascarried out at the dealership at a cost
£250, as the car was released from the garage, damaged, toolkit missing and
left in an unsafe condition, I would like to write to Toyota and report this
matter and send a copy to the dealership.
Can anyone advise where I should write to.
TIA |

If you go to www.toyota.co.uk, you should be able to find some addresses
and tele numbers. In addition, in the US, we have Better Business
Bureaus, which maintain info about poor service from different
companies. Perhaps, you have something similar in the UK. In addition, I
would speak to the persons (in person) both in charge of the shop (shop
foreman) and the dealership manager.

Do what Jeff said. And, in the future, always try and turn a brand name into
a web address. If you're old enough to have a child, you should be old
enough to figure this out. |

| | | Re: Poor service from dealership Thanks for the amusing replies, I was looking for a UK address where I could
send a complaints letter directly to the appropriate people, as I'm sure
Toyota will receive a lot of mail all of which will be screened. Alas, no
address to send complaints directly, so it will just have to be their main
office. I had checked their website before posting.
Oh - Scott in Florida, I will be another 'Scot in Florida' later this year,
coming over for a holiday.
