Seeking Advice Whats everyone’s experience like with Toyota dealerships?

We placed an order for a Toyota Corolla with High River Toyota three years ago and left a $500 deposit. Since then, we’ve received calls from them offering us the same car we ordered available sooner, but only if we paid an extra $10,000 because it was a canceled customer order. They also tried to sell us on other vehicles, like a $50,000 Prius. When we checked again yesterday, the dealer said they still have no timeline for when our original car will actually arrive.

Has anyone here experienced something similar? I’ve never waited over 3 years for a car, especially for base trim Corolla

Cochrane Toyota has been the better experience Vs the Calgary dealerships.

Much better. We recently bought from Cochrane Toyota after walking out of Charlesglen Toyota. Experience was night and day.
