Koons Arlington Toyota

I still can't believe what a terrible experience I've had with these people! I spent $15,000 on a 2005 Subaru at Koons in March 2012. 6 months later the car is worth $8,000 AFTER spending an additional $4,000 on unanticipated repairs. Koons couldn't care less. Just to recap, that's a 53% depreciation on the original price within 6 months. Nevermind the $4k in repairs... Koons will make it very, very easy for you to purchase, but unless you buy their pricey warranty, you're totally on your own. They do NOT stand by the cars they sell. Ken E. sold me a 2005 Subaru Forrester with 60,000 miles in March of 2012. The transaction took HOURS and I was so anxious to leave, we didn't get to warranty info. Mike F. was supposed to follow up with me, but he didn't. 30 days after purchase the sunroof motor broke (a $1,500 fix.) When I went back to tell them about the sunroof, Alex B. offered me a $3,500 warranty. Not thinking the TURBO WOULD FAIL 6 MONTHS LATER, I declined. FYI - Replacing a turbo on a Subaru costs $2,500. When I called Ken to tell him what happened, he said to come on by - they might be willing to buy back the car for whatever they appraised it at (significantly less than what I paid) and would gladly sell me another. He said I should buy a Toyota - THAT, they would stand by. Shameful! Subaru was mortified that a Forrester with 60k miles would have a failed turbo - They've offered me a $500 good faith credit. A final thought... I am clearly not a car person. It takes about 30 seconds of conversation for that to be clear. A knowledgeable sales person would have advised me against buying this car (or any turbo), regardless of the condition of the car. For those who are not savvy or interested in knowing alot about cars, you may wish to buy at another dealer where you'll get better attention and counsel.
