DO NOT GO HERE

Hey guys i just wanted to post about my experience with servicing and getting warranty work done. I have been going to Meadowvale Toyota located at 401 and Winston Churchill, they do not know anything about the FR-S or how to service it or diagnose problems (my car doesn't start 5% of the time and they have witnessed it but can not find a problem) not only this there techs can not drive standard, after pulling into the service department and do all the paper work a tech gets in my car and attempts to pull away but goes no where cause he left the e-brake up and the car just makes a weird noise and goes no where and on his second attempt he stalls outs, personally i would never trust me car here and not mention the service manger Arthur is the biggest Ahole in the world

DO NOT GO TO MEADOWVALE TOYOTA

I'm sorry man but that doesn't sound that bad. Diagnosing something that only occurs 5% of the time is going to be very difficult. It is also not unreasonable to forget that the emergency brake is on. We have all done that before. Cut the tech some slack. He drives 95% automatic transmissions during the day that don't require the emergency brake.
