I have had Toyota's all six years we have lived here. My current one is a Rav 4. Have always had them serviced according to manufacturer's schedule at Phillips Toyota in Leesburg. We have been happy with the service and the price. Never had an attempt to upsell anything.

We get our Toyota serviced at Phillips in Leesburg. Been very happy with service. Make an appointment & they are usually right on time. I think closest Lexus is near Tampa or Orlando. But that is why we bought Toyota. Service close by.

Wesley Chapel Lexus which is 55 miles down I75. Or Lexus of Orlando at Millenia Mall which is 50 miles down the turnpike. There service departments are excellent. I go to Wesley Chapel for 2 additional reasons. 1) I75 is a much better drive than the turnpike (I75 is 3 lanes vs. 2 for the turnpike) and 2) Costco is the next exit south of the Lexus dealer where gas is usually 30 to 40 cents cheaper than the Villages area. And maybe 3) there are premium outlets next to Costco where I buy Greg Norman golf clothes at huge discounts. Also - Millenia Mall area also has a Costco and lots of Mall shopping, but lots and lots of people and traffic which is a negative for me.

Nope, just want to avoid dealers. I like service companies that specialize in Japanese cars, just my post history

A SECOND recommendation for Gregg Smith Automotive-- I've been using them for all four of the cars I've owned (two Lexus, one Pontiac, and one Genesis) for the 17 years I've lived here. Honest and capable!

Same recommendation by me.

Moved here in 2019 with my 2006 RX400h, and traded it in for for an RX350 in May 2020.

Great service shop, and lifetime "free" regular service at recommended intervals. Nice lounge while waiting.

Busy? They have pickup services here in The Villages. Contact them directly for details.

Not as crowded at Orlando or Winter Park dealers.

I've always taken our cars to the dealer for service. Here and back in Oregon.

Do you people know that service at dealerships are rip-offs.
Pay attention next trip on their hourly rates..........

I've done the same for my RX and have been very happy with them.
