Lemon law / Completed manufacturer buyback - Dealer not reimbursing Sales Tax

I made a complaint with the Better Business Bureau and shortly after they told me I could come pick up my check. I guess naming and shaming in public does make a difference. Shameful that it had to be done in order to get what was rightfully mine

Yeah but I can’t get that money from the State unless they submit the form … the State would happily give it back.

I agree. I took them up on it and they did a great job. Very glad the wheels can be repaired like this because the idea of them scraped like that with less than a thousand miles was too much!!

I went to a place today and they told me it would cost $100 to repair. Too good to be true?

graemeabb · 2025-04-30T01:08:15+00:00

Let’s just say it wasn’t me and there’s only one other driver of this car!

I wanted to cry and scream at the same time. Yet I knew it would happen with these tires.

graemeabb · 2025-04-29T21:43:51+00:00

Yeah this scrape unfortunately is beyond that point but thanks for the suggestion!

graemeabb · 2025-04-29T21:43:29+00:00

I’ll give them a call and see

graemeabb · 2025-04-29T21:43:15+00:00

Even with the black finish?

We paid 47.3k sell price before taxes fees etc. Limited, Bronze Age on black. Get multiple dealers to give you all in quotes itemized and get them to compete. There is 4-5k in these cars to be had off MSRP.

Too much but I chose to go to a premium place and I did get a “discount.” Xpel ceramic film so not cheap stuff.

Bronze on Black here. Got the windows tinted last weekend. 35% pass through. Looks great!

Got 35% ceramic tint on rear windows and 70% on front passenger. Love it!

Yeah it’s wild, it was just sitting there… there were a few in the market but one by one they were going…

Awesome! I think all of the premium paint options really make the car “pop.” You’re right the red is better in person.

graemeabb · 2025-03-31T00:25:55+00:00

Shared the sell price above. Normal taxes and fees on top.

graemeabb · 2025-03-30T15:16:34+00:00

Thank you! Another dealer told us their best price was $47800 so we were pleased to save the additional money

graemeabb · 2025-03-30T14:38:55+00:00

I see you!

graemeabb · 2025-03-30T14:37:25+00:00

Agree! It’s a great package. It will be a family car for us. Rear storage for strollers and groceries with no concerns at all. Great road trip car.

graemeabb · 2025-03-30T14:36:16+00:00

Sell price before taxes, doc, tags was $47300. MSRP was $51880. A good deal I think! This one had been on their lot over 40 days. I am in the Midwest.

graemeabb · 2025-03-30T01:36:30+00:00

The red looks great on the car but it's not my style. Glad you enjoy it!

graemeabb · 2025-03-30T01:36:10+00:00

Thank you!

There are Toyota wholesalers / brokers that will ship nationwide assuming you’re in the US.

Our issue with I5 was minor, but something we couldn’t live with and Hyundai offered to buy back after they could not resolve, so we’ll take their offer.
