The first Toyota dealership was established in Southern California in October 1957. Since then a whole army of Toyota dealerships has gathered upon the face of North America . Well, what else would you expect from the manufacturers of some of the best-selling cars in the world? Currently, there are more than 1,700 independent Toyota dealers in North America , 1,400 of those in the USA (including Lexus and Scion dealerships).
Here are a few ways to find the Toyota dealership nearest you:
- Local yellow pages. Just look up "Automobiles" or "Cars" and go to the dealership section. Most likely a number of Toyota dealers will be listed, for both new and used Toyotas.
- The Car Dealership Strip. Practically every town and city in America has a street or a section of town where all the car dealerships congregate. Drive over there and find yourself the Toyota dealer--it's bound to be there, right in the thick of things.
- Toyota 's Website. Toyota has an excellent dealer-locator, where you supply your zip code and the closest dealership of Toyotas is given to you. www.toyota.com/toyotaApp/dealers
Dealership Service. Another important of the dealerships of Toyota is the variety of services offered there. Most every Toyota dealership will have a parts and service/repair shop. These shops are staffed by Toyota factory-trained technicians who will know how to handle every problem that comes your Toyota 's way. While the labor charge is sometimes a little highest than your ordinary mechanic, sometimes it's best not to take chances on generic mechanics, and it's worth the extra money to get your Toyota repaired the right way with official Toyota factory parts. Also, there is no better place to order parts and accessories for your Toyota than at the Toyota dealership, who have a huge stock at their disposal, if not on-hand, then through special order.
