How is Toyota helping during the COVID-19 crisis?

San Francisco Toyota payment deferment during coronavirus 

As the coronavirus COVID-19 crisis continues to reshape how we live our lives, it is clearer than ever that we will need to adapt for a while. The number one priority is keeping everyone safe and to continue to flatten the curve so as not to overwhelm our hospitals, but we understand that a lot of people had plans that now might need to get put on the back burner or at least adjusted as far as how to go about it. If you were planning to get a new Toyota in the near future, you do not have to scrap those plans. Read more about the San Francisco Toyota payment deferment during the coronavirus crisis.

90 Day Deferment 

It’s vital that you have a vehicle that is safe and reliable, because while a lot of travel has been restricted, you can still go out for essentials as long as you are abiding by safe social distancing guidelines. You can still get a new Toyota right now. We offer a unique way of shopping and buying online, called SmartPath, which makes the process simple and convenient. During this time of crisis, from now through May 4, 2020, qualified buyers can have their payments deferred for 90 days. That’s about three months of not having to make your payments, because we know money can be tight right now while we’re in survival mode. Some limitations and other criteria apply, so please contact one of our representatives for more information if you have questions. 

The San Francisco Toyota service center is still open 

While our showrooms are closed for the time being, the service center at our Geary location remains open so your vehicle can remain in good shape. We want to be here for you if something happens to your vehicle or if it’s time for its latest round of maintenance. 

We’re here to help you with your automotive needs. Please stay safe and healthy out there, everyone.
