Does not care about the customer at all - Hoover Toyota Service Dept may smile while they greet you or ask how you are, but their service management is piss poor no matter if they smile or not... Believe me, I will never have any of my vehicles worked on at this place ever again. They mounted a set of used tires on a set of used wheels for my Tundra. Wheels & tires both in excellent condition, I was so excited! Well, after I had a blowout in the middle of nowhere on the way to a Destin vacation and $500 later, both the tow company & Sears (where I went to replace the tire) told me to take the tire back up to whoever did the work and show the service managers what kind of shoddy work was done and they may help me out... So, I took their advice. I went up to the service station and politely addressed the issue b/c at this point there was no reason to be upset.. The damage was done, fixed, and people make mistakes - it happens... One manager after another came and not only listened to my story but was also shown before & after photos and the wheel and tire itself and what had happened. Everyone was in agreement that the tire was mis-mounted and had bent the steel belt inside the tire that creates a seal to the wheel in the process. They even said it had happened before... What upset me was Then the "Service Foreman" came out, took a look, and told me SORRY that was a MANUFACTURERS DEFECT and I would have to call them and walked away along with every other manager there... I was blown away!! This was such a clear act of customer neglect - It was unreal! I had all the evidence in the world to show exactly what had happened without a doubt. After a couple words were exchanged about what I thought about their professional judgement and dodging abilities, I knew I shouldn't have gone up there and that all it would do would tick me off. So, all I want to do is share my story in hopes that this would help a couple of people save their hard earned time and money and stay away from such a business and take it elsewhere.
