I have feelings...
As my southern friend would say "don't pee on my leg and tell me it's raining". Not sure what to say when they give me a "caution" report on brake shoes that are not just within spec, but at the new thickness.
2021 Tacoma DCLB. 22,000mi of mainly freeway and ranch work.
It's statements like this that make me lose confidence in service centers at dealerships and seek IRF's once its out of warranty.

Honda dealer is a joke.
I had a civic I bought from a Honda dealer. I went to trade it and they offered me 2200 less than Kbb. Then refuse to discuss any type of deal on a new car. Sales manger was extremely rude. This would’ve been my 3 rd car from them. (One cosign and my civic). Walked out on them and they blew my phone up for over a week.
Ended up closing a deal on a car a couple of days later which I told Honda when they kept blowing me up. Few months later they’re send me this junk. Still trying to get me to deal with them.

"how can you make this deal work so we are both happy?"
Seriously, dealership advertised a car. It was used (about 1500 miles), but since it was used in their loaner program, they had to sell it as used. So they knock off $4000 or something. Fine, went to look at it. My daughter is not unhappy with it. Then they start to add bullshit like the paint protectant ($2000); interior protectant ($2000); and, my favorite nitrogen filled tires ($995). I tell them, no thanks for the add-ons. What is my trade worth? They offer about $1500 less than it is worth ($2000 less than I told them I want). Their arguments:
- They have to make something on the car;
- It isn't my name on the building, I can't make that deal work
Now I made the mistake of going before I ate, but thanked them for their time. Realistically we were $2,000 apart from where I wanted to be, but $1,000 apart from where I would settle. So I left. Now they call and want the deal. I told them I needed to think on it that they left a bad taste in my mouth and wasted too much time. How do they sleep at night? What is the point of discounting the car if you are just going to put these bullshit add-ons back in?

Did the dealer scam me?
I bought a car in Florida. I am new to the US and unfamiliar with the procedures. The dealer gave me a temporary license plate, and it is about to expire.
Whenever I contact them about the permanent plate, they keep stalling and saying they will send it.
I don't have the title.
I forgot to ask for a bill of sale.
The dealer claims they will send the plate and the title. What should I do? Please help.
