Purchase car at the end of July 2 weeks later heard a not a rattling sound while driving the vehicle. Took the vehicle for a service appointment at the dealership. I purchased it from. I was told by service as well as the sales manager that the rattling sound was found in both my car and another car with zero mileage. The sales manager stated I would have to put up with the rattling and the rattling has gotten progressively worse. The sales manager stated he could not help me any further. I bought the new car and traded in my old one that had a rattling sound and now drive a new car that rattles and that is what I told the sales manager and he stated I would have to wait to turn it in. The sales manager then stated that he stated that is the way that the car drives and that I’m sensitive to the noise. I then told him that the service man stated that something was wrong with the car and that they could not pinpoint it and that the car came that way from the manufacturer, and that I would have to wait until something went wrong with the car in order for them to be able to help me. The rattling sound is loud and the sales manager and my husband drove the car together and he stated that it was loud. That it could possibly be the transmission and if something were to go wrong while I’m driving and it’s a defect, we would have to wait until something happened. I am very displeased with the outcome of me purchasing this new car from this dealership and there, laza fair attitude towards my safety. The car has an obvious problem and I feel the car dealership and Toyota sold me a car that could potentially either breakdown or cause me harm.
