  • Lied about inventory.

    1 out of 5 starsby Highlander Man on 10/24/2023

    I was looking for a highlander hybrid, so I submitted an online inquiry over the Internet, several months ago. They called me and told me that they had an hybrid in stock. I said ok, I'll be there. But before I left, I called the agent again to confirm I heard him correctly that he said hybrid. He confirmed that yes, they have an XLE-hybrid, which was the trim I was looking for. I was excited. I told my kids, and we all got into the car to go get our new car. Before I arrived at the dealership, I went to my bank and get a loan approval as I wanted to pick the car up the same day. However, when I arrived, they told me that, in fact, they didn't have a vehicle in stock. Then the stories and games to order one started. I stood my ground and left. They not only wasted my time, but they also made me obtain a loan approval, which is HORRIBLY DECEPTIVE and UNETHICAL, not to speak of unprofessional. So, the morale of the story is, DON'T TRUST WHAT THEY TELL YOU.
    • OMG! The bait and switch tactic is so old Thanks for taking time to post your experience with Runnemede Toyota. I've learned the hard way that you should always read reviews for any product or service.

  • Kudos to Salesman David!

    3 out of 5 starsby Marie on 10/17/2023

    This was my first experience with Runnemeade. I was pleased to meet and work with David. I was very, very determined and David responded to that positively, offering me many options but what I wanted could not be gotten at the time. I felt he was honest and worked hard to satisfy me. Go David!

  • Internet Sales Misrepresented Inventory and Pricing

    1 out of 5 starsby Mike on 08/23/2023

    Internet salesperson at Toyota of Runnemede told me over the phone that the vehicle was in stock and the price would be MSRP plus tax and doc fees. We made an appointment to come in, test drive and finalize the sale. We drove 45 minutes the same day. We texted with the salesperson until 10 minutes before we arrived. Another salesperson said they left. Management said the vehicle will not be on-site for another month and the price is $15 K over MSRP. They came down to $8 K over MSRP. We felt like we were purposely deceived in order to get us in the building. Who would want to use this dealership?

  • Betrayal of Trust

    1 out of 5 starsby NajidHussain on 01/10/2020

    We went to Toyota of Runnemede (TR) for the first time. I found the agent and the manager exemplary in their friendliness and help with the purchase, which I had never seen before in my 25 years, and a dozen car purchases. However, post purchase all that changed. Those very folks became, by far, the worst that I had never seen before in my 25 years! I purchased RAV4 Hybrid. Included in the price was the Tax and 5 years Tags charge, which is normal with purchase of new vehicles. However, after nearly two months, and several reminders later, TR finally sent me the Registration document, but only with one year Tag. I asked them why should they provide one year registration despite charging 5 year fee. But it's nearly four months since that vehicle purchase, and dozens of reminders, TR has neither extended the tag to the promised 5 years, nor has refunded the excess money they charged. Their line: "it's being processed", or "the check is in the mail". I don't think it is. Although $250 is not a big deal, it just leaves bad taste in the mouth of the customer that the dealership he liked so much and trusted with the purchase, cheated over such a trivial sum. The fact that I had such excellent impression and high regards for TR dealership prior to purchase, the post purchase experience just shattered me.

  • Will never go anywhere else!

    5 out of 5 starsby Jenny on 07/06/2019

    I cannot express how happy that I went to Toyota of Runnemede to purchase my new vehicle. I found myself severely underwater in equity on my previous vehicle and needed to get out of the vehicle as soon as possible. I had been visiting several dealerships and I was just about to give up, when I received a call from Dan Rowan. Dan is the reason that I came to the dealership and purchased a car. He was up front with me, made me feel comfortable, and was not pushy. Dan and the manager Pete, ensured that I received the best possible deal that they could give me. I am now paying less than I was paying in my previous car, and I am now in a brand new car! I have not stopped raving about the outstanding customer service and am very thankful that Dan was the one who called me from the dealership. I have had awful experiences when it comes to purchasing a car, and this was far from that. In addition to having an amazing experience, I absolutely love my car. I am so thankful for Toyota of Runnemede! If you are considering purchasing a vehicle from them, do it!

  • Second time around

    5 out of 5 starsby Darlene on 06/30/2019

    This is the second time dealing with Jeff Mekal and Runnemede Toyota. Jeff is a great salesman! He is down to earth and really listens to you. He answered all my questions fully so that I could make a good decision on my next car. There was never any pressure from him or the dealership. I got the car I wanted at a very good price.
  • Excellence

  • Once again

    5 out of 5 starsby Anthony on 06/23/2019

    Mike Kapelus and his team did it again! This is car number 5 or 6 that I have bought from Jeff Mekal. In and out in no time, no pressure and at the payment I was hoping for. Rob in finance couldn’t be any nicer of a guy, he even asked how my kids were doing in track...he remembered! Highly recommend *****
  • Great Service, Kind People!

    Walking into Toyota, the kind and helpful Nicole introduced me to Jeff. Jeff was considerate, helpful, and explained all details . The car is beautiful and I have full confidence that I made the right choice. Jeff's eagerness to help me was integral to this decision. Thanks Jeff!

    Steve was great to work with. He listened to what I said and at no point put any pressure on me to do anything, which works for me. The gentleman in finance was also helpful.
  • Camry SE 2019

    Carl is an excellent car salesman. Knowledge, professional and made buying.a car easy and fun.
  • Notably good experience

    5 out of 5 starsby Barbara on 04/19/2019

    Everyone hates dealing with car salesmen, however my experience with Kevin Roman was amazing. He was very down to earth and extremely knowledgeable about the Highlander I was looking to purchase. Being a first time "modern car" buyer, I was in the dark on mostly everything in the car! Kevin made me feel at ease and walked me through every feature. He was very courteous and so pleasant during our negotiating that I felt at ease. The finance person, I believe his name was Ron, was also extremely knowledgeable and courteous. Again, I felt at ease. I will definitely be a returning customer to Toyota of Runnemede.
  • Overall Good Service

    4 out of 5 starsby Christina on 04/14/2019

    I worked with Sam to purchase my car. He was incredibly patient and a pleasure to work with. He made the whole experience very pleasant and would recommend him to anyone interested in purchasing a Toyota. Mike, the manager, was also helpful in finding us a car that was within our budget. I would have given this dealership 5 stars, but my whole experience was soured by Pete in finance. He was pushy and when we refused additional coverage he basically berated our intelligence and proceeded to tell us "we didn't understand". The experience was hostile, demeaning and insulting. He was incredibly unprofessional and I was embarrassed by the way he proceeded to speak to us. I was having a pleasant experience until this point. I would recommend this dealership to someone based on the sales team, but warn them about their horrendous customer service in finance. This man should not be allowed to deal with people.
