I'm…read morenot going to use names or titles, but I feel it's important to document a poor experience I had. This past Sunday, my three-year-old son and I went to return an unused car battery that we had originally paid for in cash. The clerk initially said they didn't have enough cash to process the refund and suggested coming back another day. I offered alternatives, including using my debit card, and was told there was enough cash in the store but that it had to come from one register, which is why they said the refund couldn't be processed. I also offered to drive to another nearby store within reason if that would help, but was told that was not an option either. When I asked to speak to a higher-level person, that individual's response was, and I quote, "Just give him the money and get him the F#%$ out of my store!" This was said in front of my child and another parent with a young child waiting in line. The refund was then processed in less than a minute. About 30 minutes later, I called the store to follow up calmly and express my disappointment. I was told I could be put on hold until the manager was available. I waited a day to see if anyone would reach out before posting this, but did not hear back. The use of harsh profanity by management in front of young children crossed a line and is completely inappropriate in a customer-facing retail environment. Otherwise, this is a store I regularly visit without issue.

Never been to a business with more hostility then this Autobody...Beware!…read more I realize after reading reviews that many customers similarly have shared this experience. Among other issues, these guys are happy to make you promises they never intend to keep just to shut you up and move you along. If you dare to be straightforward and ask them what happened to the promise when they don't deliver, they will jump all over you and heighten the situation to an argument where all their goons come out of the woodwork to argue you! Apparently when you've been around for a while you don't care how you treat any customers and that's a huge part of why reviews should be written. They are undoubtedly the all time champions of arrogance. I've seen and heard about poor business practices happening down there to several people aside from myself and it's seems like they're strangely against policy to just keep their word about following through with insurance claim issues. It's painfully obvious who they actually work for and who they are pandering to and it's not their customers! Watch out for the game they will play where they keep you in the dark about your auto claim questions (covered items in question) right up until the point they are ready to hand you your keys. The hope on their part being you won't have the either the balls or the energy to call them out on their shady business practices.. The last time I went there they never once called me with an update on my vehicle even after multiple calls on my end for updates on the situation and a promise from my ricks adjuster that they would inform me about a covered item from my insurance company. They never did however and ignored it completely! Even when the vehicle complete date went a week over their estimate they never called to inform me of any issues or reasons why it was delayed. It was "too bad" it's was just an estimate. It's a real "fuck the customer" attitude down there by the majority of the staff. A far cry from how it was many years ago when Rick was more involved.. They are now the McDonald's of Autobody's and your order is predictably never gonna be right! God forbid you stay on them and you call to get some clarity on the situation all you get is excuses and justifications as to why they don't need to keep you in the loop! Really bad business practices in that place and after a few bad experiences in a row, I wouldn't go back. Plenty of shops out there that would actually appreciate your business! Caveat emptor!

The part they were describing just works that way in Volkswagens. He drove it over there himself to point it out but the guy at the inspection refused to acknowledge it and said if I brought it back again, he would fail it again if he didn't see new parts on there. Dave at Meineke suggested I just lose the inspection fee there and go somewhere else to get it inspected. He made me a deal. If it failed again, he would make the repair that was needed for free. That's how confident he was that the guy was wrong. Sure enough, he was right. It passed at the other inspection station. In a time where you just aren't sure that you're getting a fair and honest deal, this Meineke is a good place to go. They could have easily made several hundred dollars on me by replacing parts that didn't need replacing, but they didn't. I never hesitate to question their judgement.
