honestly I think they could if they wanted, my low rating of Toyota and the dealer is more then not getting the key chain( you did see the 8 other problems didn't you ). Remember I have given my Yaris a 10, it's Toyota and the dealer that get low marks.

Toyota 5- they could have dealt with their problems better. They forgot that the
customer is the reason they sell cars

Dealer 9- All problems were dealt with immediately. Salesman phoned us three times
since we bought the car to see if there was anything else we needed

Yaris 9- Really a cool little car, I need to drive it more. Bought it in January and only
have 935 miles on it.

The Onyx version looks pretty nice, but it needs lowered

Thanks , I've been giving that some thought for awhile now, I would like no more then a 1" drop. Other than maybe lowering my Yaris my only mods will be a Tanabe front strut tower brace, TRD rear sway bar and a Tanabe Medalion Touring exhaust.

Never let me down, works great, consumes very little and handles like a go-kart
+1 - no complaints yet, in 3 years with a Yaris.

Toyota: 4/10. Current situation should have been handled differently. the cars them selfs are boring and uninspired. except for the yaris.

Dealer: 10/10. Kendall Toyota in anchorage, alaska. service department is stellar, and the sales experiance was exceedingly awesome. no hitches or snags or gotchas in either place.

yaris 7/10: i like this car, its fun. but its starting to wear on me. i thought that having a small car would be great, and it is. but i want something bigger and more powerful now. recent mechanical problems are troubling.

Toyota: 6/10 - really could do alot better than they are with the current situation, but still better than any us manufacturer

Dealer: 5/10 - I knew the dealer wasnt the reason I was going to buy my car, just a hurdle i had to jump through to get it. I went to the best dealer in town, but still not impressed

Yaris: 9/10 - I just took my yaris for a 2500 mile trip this past week and now have over 7500 miles on it in less than 2 months. This thing drives like a champ and at around 37-38 mpg, i cant complain. As a bigger guy, the car does get a little uncomfortable after 10+ hours of driving, but I think any car would. I still dont like the clutch that much though. I stall it at least once a week, but ive been driving a stick for 7 years and still havent been able to get it just right on the yaris

I guess my dealer was OK, they had one equipped the way I wanted it(plain jane with only A/C, a stereo, and floor mats, no power stuff). I haven't had any servicing done on my car there though, so I can't comment on their repair shop. They do have the only Toyota Factory Certified body shop in my area so if the car gets wrecked, I know where to have it fixed. The only strange thing was I gave them a check for $5000 as a down payment and they took nearly 2 weeks to cash it, long after I'd taken the car. They were also slow to contact my credit union to get the loan straight.

This company also has a Hyundai dealership, right next door to Toyota, that once sold me a used car that had previously been wrecked and I found out after the fact. Fortunately, they did make good on the deal by paying for an oil change and inspection, and fixed what I thought was just a misaimed headlight, which it turns out wasn't aimed right because of the bodywork, for free. However, my wife has taken her Hyundai to them and it seems like their mechanics aren't all that on the ball.

As for my Yaris, I love it. A desperation purchase(having to give up my rental car after the insurance company paid me for my totalled vehicle) lead to get the Yaris because it was the cheapest new car I could find in town at the time. I find it to be a great little car, once I got used to its quirks, like the center mounted speedometer.

Great car, highly recommended.

Does anyone know if Toyota's satisfaction survey @ toyotaopinion.com anonymous. They sent me a review for my purchase. I want to give dealer low satisfactory, but I'm afraid they will try to f'up my car when I take it for oil change.

Oh BTW:

Toyota: 10 - Their quality never let me down
Dealer: 2 - Keep trying to sell me useless warranty and talk condescendingly when I opted out
Yaris: 10x10 - ...
