Wesley chapel Toyota - Don't know the job

WESLEY CHAPEL, FLORIDA -- I went to this Wesley chapel Toyota dealer for replacement of the battery. The mechanic along with customer service representative say they cannot remove the battery connector plugs because of the corrosion and it needs entire wiring to the battery to be replaced and the cost would be $2110. Sounded ridiculous to me. Took the car to SAMs club. The guy in SAMs club replaced the battery in 10 minutes with out any complaints. He was able to remove the connector plugs and easily replace the battery in 10 mins. Not sure if the Wesley chapel Toyota guys needs more training on their job or they are trying to make more money like this.

There have been a few horror stories about this dealer posted on this site. This one is prime.

I had a VW dealer's service department attempt to rip me off once. I got it in writing, and took it back to my trusted VW dealer. It didn't need any of the suspicious items they tried to sell me for $800 - submitted it to the district rep for an investigation.

Thanks for posting so others will know.
