This plan was to include free maintenance for a certain amount of miles or years. After one year of owning the vehicle, I moved to Ohio were I began having it serviced at Don Joseph Toyota. My new career is in construction and my vehicle is primarily used for work. 5 days a week, I drive on dusty, and muddy roads. To uphold the warranty, a Toyota maintenance log must be followed and stamped by the dealership. Each service visit I asked for the additional maintenance as outlined in the book for my driving conditions. The service advisors checked off that the maintenance was done and stamped my log book. After 2 visits, I noticed that the work order invoice did not match the log book. I was assured that everything that was in the book was completed even though it was not on the invoice. On 3/10/2020, I took my car in for the 60k service. Part of the service per the maintenance log and my request, the cabin air filter was suppose to be replaced, the propeller shaft was suppose to be greased and torqued. My tires were suppose to be rotated. I paid $122 after a coupon, for the 60 mile service to find out all I received was an oil change. I took my vehicle back after finding my old dirty cabin air filter still in my glove compartment. They gave me a new one. I took my vehicle home and put it up on a lift, and noticed there was no grease, not even old grease on my 6 grease points on the drive shaft. My fluids weren't topped off and my tires not rotated. I took my car back a 3rd time after speaking to the service manager Nick. I spoke to him about how the invoices never match my log book and the new girl advisor in the front told me, if the item is not on the invoice, the service was not done. After looking at my vehicle and speaking to the tech who serviced my vehicle. He kindly offered me a refund and apology. I noticed when I got home, that the fluids still were not topped off, and tires not rotated. I then reached out to Jess Joseph the GM. She never responded. I called Toyota corporate and filed a complaint with them. She finally contacted me via email, and apologized. I wanted a resolution for the fact FOR TWO YEARS, THEY HAVE NOT PERFORMED THE SERVICES I ASKED FOR AND PAID FOR. I showed her proof of my work/service invoices and copies of my log book that her advisors stamped that the work was performed and completed. She was not the nicest person after I left a one star review on Google. My car was suppose to have special maintenance done for 2 years. They lied and neglected to uphold a extended MAINTENANCE PLAN I PAID FOR.

I've auditioned the competition because a backup plan is always good to have, usually. Each time, I use a competitor, I'm reminded why this business is successful. Dave and his team are quick, honest and go beyond what I expected. They have the technology repair the machine and help explain what's wrong. The completion time estimates are very reliable. Cold February and no heat create driving problems. Another garage insisted on multiple visits and "attempts" to repair the problem. As each bill came due - the message was clear. I worked nearby and coworkers suggested Rad Air for a solution. In one try they permanently and affordably repaired the problem. From the heat in the car to the gearbox on the engine - brakes, oil, wiper blades and ..yes, the loaner cars, all needs are met. Depending on how close you work - you may get a lift back to work with your road test. Being a passenger in your own car can make the process easier. I've been towed in and limped in. Each time feeling the relief knowing the solution was near. When I broke down in Cleveland I was relieved to see the Garfield Hts location nearby. They do things THE SAME WAY! You'd think they are all family. Go to Radair - don't take chances. Ted M. Akron, OH
