AVOID
SANG
CHOI!
There
are
multiple
bad
reviews
about
him
on
Yelp.
I'm
trying
to
be
fair
with
this
dealership
because
I'm
hoping
I
just
got
a
bad
apple
of
a
service
advisor.
From
the
moment
I
met
Sang
Choi,
I
knew
something
was
off
about
his
customer
service
skills.
He
didn't
greet
me,
simply
took
photos
and
walked
me
inside.
He
then
proceeds
to
print
out
a
service
receipt
that
shows
me
that
I
will
need
to
pay
$99
for
an
EFI
Tank
Additive
even
though
my
car
is
only
4
months
old,
at
5,000
miles
and
I
have
ToyotaCare.
They
are
a
dealer
so
I
know
it's
always
more
expensive
when
a
dealer
does
something.
After
finding
that
the
bottle
was
$25
online,
I
proceeded
to
ask
if
this
was
part
of
ToyotaCare.
Sang
clearly
told
me
that
ToyotaCare
doesn't
cover
all
parts
of
a
service,
only
a
certain
part
of
it.
He
also
made
it
seem
like
the
EFI
Tank
Additive
was
a
required
part
of
the
service
even
though
the
maintenance
manual
clearly
says
that
the
EFI
Tank
Additive
is
only
required
for
Hawaii.
I
called
him.
not
even
25
minutes
later,
after
finding
my
manual
and
told
him
to
take
out
the
service
but
he
said
it's
already
been
done.
I
said
OK
and
decided
to
call
the
Toyota
Corporate
office
and
explained
the
situation
to
them
in
much
less
detail
than
I
am
doing
here
and
they
opened
a
case.
Upon
returning
to
pick
up
my
car,
I
was
pleasantly
surprised
to
find
out
that
the
service
had
been
compensated
since
the
corporate
offices
had
already
spoke
with
them.
Also,
during
my
return,
Sang
tried
to
avoid
any
contact
with
me
and
seemed
displeased
(don't
scam
people
and
then
get
mad
when
someone
calls
you
out).
That
ticked
me
a
bit
and
I
was
still
annoyed
that
a
service
advisor,
someone
I
thought
I
could
trust
(which
I
won't
do
again),
would
try
to
force
me
to
buy
something
I
don't
need.
I
decided
to
talk
to
the
manager,
Harvey,
who
was
extremely
kind
and
whom
I
had
a
productive
talk
with.
He
said
that
is
a
recommended
service
not
required.
I
let
him
know
that
this
situation
could
have
been
avoided
if
that
was
told
to
me
from
the
beginning.
We
also
talked
about
cars
for
a
bit
and
he
said
that
he
has
Toyota
vehicles
and
gets
the
oil
change
done
every
5,000
miles.
I
said
I
would
love
to
get
that
done
(since
ToyotaCare
only
covers
oil
changes
every
10,000
miles)
and
would
paid
money
out
of
my
pocket
to
get
that
done
if
I
hadn't
been
offered
the
EFI
Tank
Additive.
He
seemed
pretty
annoyed
that
his
service
advisor
had
messed
up
and
lost
potential
revenue
for
the
dealership.
I
said
that
we
should
get
that
done
if
they
can
return
the
vehicle
same
day.
He
helped
us
with
a
smile
and
I
got
an
oil
change
done
that
I
decided
to
pay
for.
Just
a
sales
tip
for
any
salesperson
or
service
advisor
at
AutoNation
Buena
Park
out
there:
don't
sell
people
what
they
don't
need
because
in
the
end
they'll
lose
trust
in
you.
Dealerships
already
have
a
bad
rep
and
situations
like
this
reinforce
it.
Even
though,
Harvey
was
an
angel
and
helped
us
out,
I
don't
think
I'll
be
coming
back
to
AutoNation
Buena
Park.
I'll
be
returning
to
AutoNation
Cerritos
where
I
bought
my
car.
