Used Toyota Highlander for Sale in East Haven, CT

We have purchased TWO vehicles from A-1 Toyota in the last six months. Our most recent was a 2017 Toyota Yaris. The purchase was the day before Thanksgiving, 2016. Despite the impending holiday and my late-in-the-day arrival time (4 pm), Mitchell Burban was steady, calm, professional and very easy to work with. The car hadn't been around long because part of our test drive was filling the gas tank! Mitch was also agreeable to having the test drive go past my house (about 3 miles away) so my wife could see the car! Since I had pre-approval from my credit union and had bought a used car from them in the spring, the process moved quickly and Carlos Orozco expedited all the necessary contracts and forms. I drove home in my new car by 6:30 p.m.! In the spring, our purchase was from Kevin Wright. Kevin evidenced the same characteristics as Mitch: steady, calm, professional and easy to work with. We bought a used 2013 RAV4. My wife Carol was lead buyer for this purchase. Unlike some salespeople who defer to the husband even though it is clear the wife is lead buyer, Kevin "got it" and directed his questions and information to my wife in a most respectful manner. This experience, along with the subsequent service from A-1's service department that is also top-notch, was a big reason why I returned to A-1 Toyota last week for the new car purchase, and I was rewarded with the same experience. - Brian Bodt, Woodbridge, CT

Really thought Toyota Highlander would be an excellent replacement for our 2011 Subaru Outback. Other than styling and 3rd row seating it fails on all levels. Not confidence inspiring in snow and ice. Annoying radar cruise. Odd unintuitive controls. Weak engine. If I'd have known Subaru was coming out with an SUV with a 3rd row we'd be happy still.

My salesman Carlos Rodriguez was outstanding. He was very knowledgeable, informative, professional and friendly. He made me feel like family from the very beginning. I told him exactly what I wanted and he found me the perfect vehicle love love my new Rav 4 thank you Carlos I am forever grateful. 🙏👍 a special thanks to Armando Muniz You were the first an main reason I choose A1Toyota. I am proud to be part of the Toyota family.

Good looking, easy to get in and out of. I love the easy opening back door for groceries and other items. Also gets great gas millage.

Rose was my salesperson - She is exceptional! She is patient, knowledgeable and worked very efficiently to fit my time schedule. There was no pressure.. she let me try all the cars I wanted and made sure that I found the car that was perfect for me. Mustafa was also part of the team and super helpful. The two of them set me up with the perfect vehicle for me and my family. We ended up with a 2015 Certified Pre-Owned Sienna and my kids begging for me to just go to the grocery store just so they can ride in it : )

Very smooth ride and holds my family of 6 nicely. The model is basic, but the standard features are nice. My whole family enjoys the leg room.

I've probably bought at least 7 or 8 Toyotas at A-1 in New Haven in the past 26 years. Amazing experiences each and every time. My latest purchases, however, came about after a tree fell on my "new" Prius bought in January and totaled it! Both my daughter and I escaped unharmed (but it could have been very bad!) Bought another Prius with the help of Patrick and Carlos - so glad to work with such good folks with such great understanding!! I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Drives like a truck, but meets the needs of my family! plenty of space for all the kids things plus more. Very comfy and classy!

We were anxious to lease Toyota because we have been in the Ford family for years. Quincy was straightforward and knowledgeable about the vehicle. We were so satisfied with experience and customer service that we put a deposit on the day we walked in! During the paperwork process, we met with Quincy again as well as Carlos, the business manager. This experience was the same as the first-no hassle or stress. Both were personable and established rapport with us (including my 7 year old daughter); it was easy to be comfortable. We are thrilled with our new RAV4 Hybrid and have already recommended our two neighbors to come in to see you all. You are doing it right A1 Toyota, keep it up and we will see you soon!

I have frequented many Volvo dealerships for my service needs over the past 10 years but Gengras is the only experience I have had where I felt there was a completely honest and open line of communication about each recommendation and the reasoning behind the same. They kept me advised every step of the way and when one part turned out to not solve the problem, they were honest and asked for my permission to remove it at no cost and try something else rather than try to convince me I still needed that part in addition to others as other dealerships have done in the past. The trust they created will certainly keep me returning for my service needs in the future.

Since my kids have grown-up, I had the need to replace my very reliable, comfortable Honda Odyssey with a more fun, family hauler SUV. Money was not a big concern, so I was shopping between 2017 Audi Q7, 2016 MB GL, 2016 Lexus GX, new Honda Pilot and new Toyota Highlander - ALL of them 7/8 seater. I know 3 of the cars are luxury but all of these cars are very close in price. Previously, I owned BMW X3, BMW 535xi and my latest BMW X5 which I sold last month and I am an enthusiastic driver. Even though I love BMW overall, the new BMW X7 was out of my reach at this point. I test drove all the cars and here is my honest opinion. Audi Q7 was great performance and fun to drive, but going in the 3rd row seat is cumbersome and my kids will not want to do it. Too many steps just to enter there - Audi do something about this? Can you not make it simpler? MB GL was nice with all features - but big, detached from road and dealer was not negotiating price. GX was a truck-like and didn't like the drive. After lot of research, videos and blogs - finally bought a brand-new 2018 Highlander AWD Limited. Absolutely love it!!! Great feature comfort, nice styling. I had dealer put running-boards and door moldings. It looks gorgeous! I would say looks are on par with my bimmer. Love the interior and the shelf is so useful. I have put 300 miles so far and it is comfortable. 3rd row access is fine and seating is comfortable. I am planning to keep the car for at least 5-6 years. I would highly recommend it to anyone!

I just want to thank PJ Zamani for the wonderful service you provided me with the purchase of my GLK 350. PJ was very courteous and polite. He also was extremely patient and explained everything to me in detail. I did not feel like I was being pressured or rushed and our negotiations was surprisingly pleasant. He physically got in the car with me and made sure I understood how to operate all the bells & whistles. He showed me under the hood and pointed out the location of all the fluids and explained some routine fluids no longer needs to be checked. The bag of trinkets he gave me was very thoughtful and most rewarding. He is an exemplary Salesman and great representative for Mercedes-Benz of North Haven. Most experiences in buying a car is very unpleasant and leave you with bad memories and a head ache but this was an enjoyable one. I will definitely purchase another vehicle from PJ and refer him to all my friends. Best Regards, Mr. Davis

No chance to rate properly as I was injured in accident that totaled my previous car so I'm not able to drive at this point but seems like a well made car

I bought a van about 5yrs. ago, after being referred to J&M by my neighbor Mike Stoffan. I recently donated it to Disabled American Veterans. After visiting nearly 6 dealerships, I returned to J&M to buy a pick up truck. After I decided on which one I wanted, I met with salesperson Steve Magura right from the start Steve was both professional and a gentleman. After a test drive and checking the truck over, I told him about some concerns I had and he assured me that those would be taken care of. I had a loan pre-approval from my credit union and there was no trade-in. We agreed on a price, I reviewed the purchase order and made a request., Steve spoke to his manager Mr. Brown and he approved it. When I brought the check in I did a pre-delivery inspection, the mechanics did the repairs (as promised), the fluids were changed and the truck was cleaned. I met with Dannielle to complete and sign paperwork and waited nearly 25 mins.for her to process and copy documentation. She apologized for the long wait and said the reason for the delay was because they found a math error and issued me a refund. I could not believe it. I had looked at the purchase order 3 times and everything appeared OK. The point is they could have said nothing but, they did and that speaks volumes about their honesty and integrity. Whenever I called with a question someone got me a answer. Steve called me with updates and kept me informed about what was being done to the truck and when it would be ready. For ALL the above reasons I decided to write this review. If you come to J&M prepared and keep expectations realistic, I'm sure you'll do as well as I did and leave just as satisfied. Thank-you very much to Steve, Mr.Brown, Dannielle, the gentleman who drove to other lot to measure the bed of the truck, the office staff (always willing to get me answers) the mechanics and prep people. Because of all of you, I've FINALLY got the truck I wanted. I am one happy guy. I'll always refer family and friends to J&M. Again,thank-You! I give J&M 10 stars.

Getting used to it . Will have to play with drivers seat a little to hit my comfort zone and why are the cup holders so huge up front. ??EVERYTHING else seems great . !!

This was the FIRST time I bought a car all by myself. No father, brother or (ex) husband telling what to get and why. I was nervous, to say the least. But - Seth Brown made it so easy. He was laid back, and let me ask questions. He was also good natured about by NASCAR like test drive. It was a very positive experience and bonus, my credit union loan officer told me I got a fabulous deal!! 🍀💚😎

This car is just what we wanted, after test driving the other Brands this one just felt better all the way around and gets better mpg's than I had expected, we Love it.

Everyone @ BMW Bridgeport showed patience, knowledge and expertise. Having owned BMW's for over 15 years I will always by the brand only at BMW of Bridgeport. Vinny not only listened to my needs/wants, delivered exactly what I expected without pressuring me for more upgrades and did not hassle me to make a decision. He went out of his way to ensure I was comfortable with the purchase. When I picked up the vehicle someone (I'm embarassed to have forgotten his name) spent close to an hour reviewing the enhancements to the 2018 3 series. Ensuring I felt confident driving the vehicle home, taking time to to hooking up my blue tooth and loading my radio stations. There were quite a few differences between my current 3 Series and new one. He was very patient with my technical limitations and made all the changes seamless. Victoria from the Business Office was personable and made the transaction easy; ensuring that all the Financials were easily understood. My decision to start the sales process with BMW of Bridgeport came through my 10 year always positive relationship with my Service Specialist Bernard. I have been able to trust in his knowledge and judgements about the service of my previous vehicle for 10 years and I know nothing about cars or technology. Basically buying a vehicle at BMW of Bridgeport is seeing a "family" @ work. The process involved a lot of different people,they all showed trust in each others strengths to give me the "ultimate BMW experience". Thank you all!

I was looking for new/newer used cars priced moderately and felt like everywhere I looked online was out of my price range. Finally fell upon this place on Internet and could not get over their huge inventory of cars, some newer, that I actually liked! Did the usual dealership review and wow, negative feedbacks enough to make you want to avoid this place. But then I ran into a coworker who told me he bought 3 cars here without a problem. I went to look at car I picked off internet on Sunday and drove it home last night (4 days), couldn't be happier!!!

I test drove and compared the 2018 Honda Pilot, Nissan Murano, and Toyota Highlander. I chose the Highlander for reliability and all around better car for our needs and taste. I got the AWD XLE as it seemed to be the best version for the money. I liked the looks of the captain chairs in the second row, but opted for the full bench instead for friendlier seating for three adults instead of having to put one in the third row which is more for kids than adults. So far I love the car and the MPG has been very respectful.

With just about 700 cars to choose from, no need to look elsewhere,(& they're expanding again soon)!!... 🖒ABWA helped me in a last minute situation where I had to purchase a reliable vehicle, immediately. We found so many GREAT cars to chose from & the rock bottom prices are wholesale, so unmatched for the quality. We found A Better Way Auto Wholesalers in Naugatuck, Ct to be a local 'town jem'!. Our salesman,Alex P., was awesome! He & the Entire team at ABWAuto is knowledgeable of their inventory, and offer sincere detail to personal attention in a fast pace, upbeat Wholesaler environment. The family friendly sales team reflect a style of flair that is characteristic of our friendly Naugautuck River Valley towns, and the Showroom attracts customers from all over New England.The staff is there to help the auto shopper from start to finish. Our salesman Alex P. and the dealership team stand by their word to honor and respect U.S. Armed Forces Veterans and Wounded Warriors. My husband is a recently wounded Veteran, recovering from injuries incurred overseas while working U.S. Diplomatic Security Detail. Alex, his desk-mate Anna, James in the business office, the ABWA Service team,and the salesroom welcomed us & compassionately worked with our special circumstances, typical to Veterans &wounded Vet stature, & they all worked hard to get our family in a safe and beautiful car!!. Highly recommended!! 5 out of 5 Stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟to ABWAuto 5 Stars🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟to Alex P. in Sales. Thank you all!! Julie & Kevin B.

This car met all my needs. Lots of legroom and steering wheel controls are the best yet. Handles well with great suspension. Looks sharp and really like the headlights and roominess inside cabin. Sunroof fun since never had one before. Really great car!!

I bought a third car from A Better Way, since my first two cars (Mazda3 and VW TDI) had zero problems and have put 100k+ miles total on them(TDI was recalled by VW:huge windfall). Although, this vehicle needed to be brought back to their service center(under their 3,000 mile warranty) to have a few minor issues fixed. The problems were fixed in a timely manner and were all covered by the dealership's warranty. Gave me a different insight into this dealership: the service center. All the employees there were polite, fixed the minor issues quickly, and kept me up to date on its status. I worked with Lya when I purchased my car. She was great to work with, and had amazing patience when my insurance company had problems faxing over the binder, which came after the dealership closed! I would recommend Lya and her partner, Miriam, if your looking to purchase a vehicle the better way!

This vehicle was very solid in handling, was comfortable in all positions of the car. I pulled an 18 foot camper over 8,000 miles without any difficulties and received excellent gas mileage. If I could afford one now I would be driving another one. I put just over 150,000 miles and just had normal maintenance.

My husband told me about Carvana from a commercial ad he heard/saw. I laughed about it and said 'yah right, there's gotta be a hitch somewhere'. A few weeks later, he brought up Carvana again....curious, I decided to check it out online. The key words there was 'check it out'. I ended up buying a vehicle a couple hours later. Yeup, it was just like that. No hassle, no hidden costs or agendas. So after reviewing everything on the site, I started looking at minivans....I started falling in love with minivans....I started buying minivans....all through carvana. Once I locked in the one I wanted, I went through the credit process, documentation process, and pick up date (I chose pick up - because at this point, I still felt a little 'leary' about the whole deal'. It was so simple, and so honest, and so real. Over the course of the next 24 hours, all my submitted documents were approved and we just had two days to go to pick up the new mininvan. When we got to the store, it's not like a dealership with a lot, but it had three beautiful, well lit, very clean, showroom like bays that your vehicle is sitting in for your to do a complete inspection of it. It was very classy. Please note, our particular location does not have the car vending machine just yet. After passing our over check, I hopped in the car and drove it 65 miles home. She ran like a charm and I knew I had 7 days to decide if I wanted to keep her not. At day 3, although I loved her, she didn't have all the bells and whistles I truly wanted so that evening, I was back on the Carvana site, shopping for a replacement minivan....it's so easy to do when it gives you results based on your financial settings....I found the new 'her' a few hours later. I ordered her up and made the quick call explaining I was swapping and chose to have the vehicle delivered instead of going there to save time. The whole swap process took 2 days...they pulled up right to my house with my next new minivan. In my eyes, she was perfect, but I found a flaw before she was even off the truck. There was a huge bolt in the back tire. I was so disappointed. But Carvana took care of that so amazingly over the top.....they still brought her off the truck so I can check out the interior, test drive it, etc. We found a few more things that we felt should be fixed...minor things. Carvana took note of the items, and took the vehicle back on the truck but promised me (because I really wanted her that day) they would bring her back with a new tire....they kept their promise, three hours later she was back with a brand new tire, not one, but TWO brand new back tires. And they put an extra Carvana cup in the car for me. They swapped the minivans and off the old one went and there I sat with the new one. Smile ear to ear. I worked with Carvana on 6 items that we believed needed repair before committing to keep the vehicle. Carvana went above and beyond. I got an estimate for the repairs at a local shop, Carvana approved it, and within a few weeks, all repairs were completed through Carvana and I have the perfect vehicle, no hassle, no hidden agendas. And every person I dealt with on the phone or in person were ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, FRIENDLY, HELPFUL, AND JUST THE BEST!! My Carvana experience was the absolute best. I will never go back to buying a car the old 'car dealership' way. And ironically, we had bought our other vehicle from a dealership just 3 months before being introduced to Carvana. I will give one warning about buying a vehicle through Carvana this way....it can be addicting..lol :-) Yes, I still shop Carvana cars every now and then....I don't even need a car, I just love seeing what Carvana has because it was sooo simple :-) Thank you Carvana for a trememdously wonderful experience.

LS plus Trim: Plus: great comfort, beautiful, lots of room, locking glove compartment, auto trunk, front end collision prevention aid, auto high beams Minus: weird heater, heavy 2nd row, unnecessary unusable buttons meant for higher trims, terrible Navi app. No alarm available

This car drives like my MDX at 20k less CV ost. V6 engine has great acceleration Handles well on snow. Interior has the finished of a much more expensive car

I still had a good car a 2009 Acura mdx with low mileage, but with the family no longer close by I wanted a sedan and was contemplating between the 2014 Kia optima sxl and vw cc..ended up with the Kia which I don't regret bcos..Peter and Lou made it happen and the car is a wow..its a beauty and drives with a punch👍👍 and compared to other dealers, I had a very good deal....i might still come for the cc too😁. Keep being honest....

It is a 7 seater which I need with a large family. We have grown children and they will fit in the third row. I love the dynamic cruise control and other safety features.

I got a good estimate for brakes on Cars.com (RepairPal). This dealership was "Certified". I understand why. The price was fair and the service was great. I will be back!

The car meet all the needs , wonderful inside and outside , with a luxury and confort . The driving is so easy and very confortable

The salesman Jason Rivera was unique. He was professional, friendly and trustworthy. I???ve never seen such great salesman like him before in my life. It only took him 2 hours for me to drive out with my brand new car. He even came to my house to pick me up. He drove for 40 minutes to pick me up. 👍 for him and his entire dealership. I???ll do my best to refer anyone who wants to buy a car to you guys. Thanks a lot guys especially Mr. Jason Rivera.

We keep our cars for a long time so I looked long & hard and decided one the Highlander. I test drive it and thought it was the most comfortable & I loved all of the safety features!

My lease was running out in September so while I was getting the car serviced I decided to pop upstairs to look at some cars to get an idea of what my options were, for when the time came to return my car. This was on a Friday. Jose, the associate sales manager approached me and we talked about my current car and what my options could be. He spent about 40 minutes answering all my questions even though I didn???t have an appointment. He even looked at my car to see the condition it was in. I left that day feeling really confident in what I would do at trade in time. My husband and I returned the next day so we could both look at the car I was thinking about. I honestly did not think we would be leaving with a new car that day, especially because I didn???t make an appointment. Well, Jason, whom I???d met the day before was there to help us out, and next thing I know I???m trading in my 2015 RAV4 for a 2018 Highlander! The process was smooth, everyone was super helpful, and I couldn???t be happier with the service. I highly recommend going to Stephen Toyota. The sales staff are super friendly, there is no pressure from them to buy, they are extremely knowledgeable about their product, they have a great sense of humor, and make the process as smooth as possible.

Very disappointed bought top of line in model Platinum chrome but did not include automatic start or individual tire psi or specific low tire designation or automatic interior lighting when doors are open including rear hatch which at night is rediculous. Also the PCS I’m sure doesn’t work had a close call on rte 95 in South Carlolina and not so much as a waning tested it many times myself to see if I would at least get a Warning no such luck. Complained to the dealer and he said he tested it in Cruise control and since it wired in this mode the PCS IS OK . Didn’t convince me since I think there has to better way to check out the PCS especially when I had a bad experience with it but fortunately turned out fine because of my evasive action which still should have given me at least a warning because it was so close

I've had dozens of excellent, professional, courteous and friendly service work over a 16 year period. ALWAYS treated like a valued customer, ALWAYS treated with respect and kindness. In return, I have also treated them exactly the same. No bad experiences here at all, unlike Crowley in Forestville, who took my money and gave me the WORST experience in car service in my entire 58 years. Stephens is a cut above the rest. Organized, professional and articulate. Biggest mistake I made was not buying my new car at Stephens. I've never had one single bad experience.

this Big Suv makes me feel safer and I love all the safety features. I love the comfort of the Suv . This Highlander rates very high in Consumer Reports as a reliable, safe and a great SuV to buy and helped me consider it a potential buy which I did end up buying. Who could ask better than that.????
