    Orlofff slogan:   third time's a charm"

    They work on my Land Rovers roof weatherstripping twice (according to their records) It flew off the roof on the highway someplace between Boston and Cleveland. Hopefully didn't cause any damage to someone else's vehicle.. They want thousand dollars to replace it again. No warranty on labor. I am lucky I didn't let them rotate my tires- Imagine losing one of those on my trip.

    Flip a coin to see if this unreliable app's remote start will actually start the vehicle

    Please do yourself and favor and DO NOT buy a Range Rover. I bought a brand new Velar and will definitely be my first and last Range Rover. I have had 3 used cars and this brand new $98k vehicle has had more problems than all my previous used cars combined. Literally. Multiple times this vehicle would not start due to electrical / software issues. Yes you heard it. A brand new $98k car won't even start. I've had multiple service appointments / software updates here. Nearly 3 years later (got it brand new late 2017) it is still not fixed. Also randomly all the instrumentation / dashboard will shut off while driving. See the pic. Yes that is while the car is in motion and the entire dash is dead. No speed, fuel, turn signal. This is on a good day. Sometimes the car wouldn't even start. 3 years later and nearly 5-6 software updates promising to "fix the problem" and it is still doing it. I am now out of the 50k factory warranty. I paid $4,500 for the 100k extended warranty at the time of purchase. You'd think this would cover this problem right? NOPE! They charged me $574 for a software update to fix this problem that has been there since I got it. Also. The remote app is awful. Just as unreliable as the vehicle. Maybe even worse. Car doesn't start half the time. See attached pic. 1.5 / 5 stars with over 1,000 reviews. I'm not making this stuff up. Look up other vehicle brand apps. MUCH better consumer satisfaction. I truly do not understand how anybody who is aware of the horrible reliability of Range Rover would waste time, money and sanity on such an overpriced unreliable vehicle. Please do yourself a favor and buy ANYTHING else.

    Took my 2017 Evoque for an annual maintenance; under 40k Factory recommended. The service fee has substantially increased compared to previous years. (This would be my third year) They found that both brakes and rotors for the front and rear needed to be replace. The amount for labor charge was a joke! I will not come here again, unless i need to use my extended warranty

    Email from H.O.

    The body mechanic that H.O. used for my Jaguar screwed up some wiring and caused the wiring harnesses to melt and short circuit. This also caused a drain in my battery. Initially they claimed that they did all the work perfectly (as they always say) and I had to pay nearly 400$ out of pocket for a new battery. Auto body mechanic that Orloff used had to pay nearly 9K for additional work but H.O. still refused to reimburse for the battery although the issues are directly linked (by this time they had to replace the battery a second time due to the initial faulty wiring) Once wiring work was completed by H.O. (It took 8 weeks) I pick up my car and immediately notice that my speakers now do not work. I inform H.O. and they confirm that they also could hear there was an issue, but made me wait literally weeks to begin repairs because the Service manager was OOO. They wanted him to listen to the speakers as well (I still don't know why). When I finally got to speak with the Service Manager they told me they needed to keep the car in order to do diagnostics (someone from ABT told me this should not take more than one hour to perform). H.O. did not want to give me a loaner and elected to give me my car back more than 24 hours after I left my car with them (still undiagnosed). I reached out to another manager multiple times via email and left messages with the receptionist. I have not received any response from anyone at Orloff in 6 months. Additionally, I requested support from the Better Business Bureau and H.O. Did not respond to the BBB on two separate occasions either. On top of all of this, I received a nasty email from the service representative who was not pleased with my review of this negative experience, as it affects "how [he is] compensated", and refuses to provide any service beyond that (email attached to this review). This review does not cover the H.O. Tow truck driver breaking the tie rods on my car (leaving the car unable to drive for a period) or the incorrect mirror being replaced on my car, requiring my car to go back to the shop for two days to replace (...two days to replace a mirror).

    This review is for sales department, in particular Adrian from Volvo sales. He priced everything fair upfront and didn't play any games. What I asked he delivered, and what he promised he kept. Communication, knowledge, personal service A+. There is more. Unlike other sales folk, he didn't stop there. I already needed couple of favors post sales, he could've easily passed me around now that his part is done, but he still goes above and beyond helping further. Go see him, and make it an easy, and pleasant experience.

    It's taken me a few months to write this review because I do not want to damage someone's business,…read morebut I do feel that I should warn others about the service I received here. I took my car in because my sunroof was stuck open. They gave me an estimate to fix it and I agreed to have the service done. Ultimately they were not able to fix it and I still had to take it to the dealer for repair who told me the damage that was done would result in an even more expensive repair. Overall, I had a horrible experience with poor communication throughout. They had my car for several weeks and I had to chase them for updates. After the first week with no updates, I finally reached the shop manager and the response I got was to "be patient". This was the state of my car when I picked it up, which was not the state I dropped it off in. Although my car was over 10 years old it was in nearly perfect condition when I dropped it off. The car was hit while parked on the street outside the shop. When I saw the damage I went back into the shop and they sent me to their body shop to have it buffed out. Much of the damage came out but not all of it. Nothing was offered to rectify the damage done to the interior of the car. I sent emails to the shop with the pictures below, but got no response.

    Very knowledgeable and quick work, they diagnosed the issue and replaced the alternator in no time…read more Excellent service and great price.

I was able to drive my car to this shop just before they were closing, but they said they couldn't get to my car until February. I immediately started to cry and was so distraught. I felt so sad, so alone and clearly in shock about it all. Because the individual in the office was so kind, he did end up taking me in as a client, and I explained it didn't matter how long they took to fix my car, since I was going to surgery very quickly, and treatments I never expected. This team is unbelievable, I do remember their kindness every year, and just cannot thank them for their humanity and kindness at a time I just couldn't muster through. My angels. THANK you Erie LaSalle!!! I tell EVERYONE you are the shop to go to, because you just don't find this type of humane service anymore anywhere! So again THANK YOU again for being the angels I needed during a really difficult time. I am ever so grateful.

    STAY AWAY AT ALL COSTS. This place is a shambles and a stain on body shops everywhere - never in my…read more25 years as a driver have I ever had body repairs done so incompetently and without regard to any quality assurance whatsoever. I came in with minor scuffing damage done by a sideswipe on the front passenger side, without any dents or damage to the headlight lens or any sensors. I was quoted an estimate to fix the car in about 5 business days - drop off on Monday, pick up on Friday. The first of many failed commitments as it took 11 days (including the weekend and Memorial Day, granted) to get the car back. The bigger problem is that as soon as I got the car, I noticed that the paint job was botched, with multiple (I counted 8 but there were more) pits on the paint that probably were paint bubbles that formed and burst during the rushed baking and curing process and then were completely overlooked during the (I am assuming nonexistent) quality assurance inspection. When I brought this up to my rep's attention, the pattern was established - still friendly and prompt, but complete failure to explain what happened to cause the pits, why the QA process was skipped over and to involve a supervisor immediately. The "apology" was basically "Sorry about that, but don't worry, you have a lifetime warranty on the repair" - words I would hear over and over again as you will read on. So, what can a guy do but arrange to come back to the shop, drop off his car and get an Uber home (which I paid for myself round trip, mind you - the shop never offered a reimbursement). The redo of the repaint took two days and then I finally had my car fixed completely! Right? Nope. This time around - having my trust in this place shot already - I do a very thorough inspection and yes, the paint APPEARS fine (although I wouldn't wonder if they skipped the primer this time and I have perforation rust in a year or two but time will show). HOWEVER, the wheel arch trim - which has to be installed brand new each time that car panel is repainted - is noticeably loose and popping in and out like a badly attached denture (don't ask how I know) at the mere press of a finger. See above for the already familiar process of how the shop handled this - the rep saying (second time in a row) "Sorry about that, but don't worry, you have a lifetime warranty on the repair". Still friendly and prompt, but complete failure to explain what happened to cause the botched adhesive, why the QA process was skipped over and to involve a supervisor immediately - at this point to apologize to me personally over a second failure in a row. Fast forward another few days (the part had to be ordered and painted in advance again) when I drove to the shop to have the trim piece removed and the new one attached. This time, it APPEARS to be fine, and so three weeks later and two failures later I finally had the car body work completed. Not only are these the only two examples of a failed body repair I have ever experienced in 25 years, but the repeated failures of the repairs and the lack of any QA - especially the second time when this should have become the focus of a manager's attention - are unforgivable. Final thought - when I mentioned this ordeal to my trusted rep at the service center I go to, he said he recommends to his clients to skip this shop, as they do the worst jobs ever and frequently show up with cars taken apart that they do not know how to put together again. Yikes. To recap - STAY AWAY AT ALL COSTS.

The work was done to a high standard (they don't use OEM parts) and the walkthrough at the end was thorough. Fun fact, you can't pay for the work over the phone, you have to go into the office in person.....welcome to 2001 ! However, once we got home, we realize that the brake light is full of water. We go back to Crash Champions, and they take responsibility and promise to fix it. Great! Nothing happens for a week so I call back, and then they actually order the part. Nothing happens for another 2 weeks so I call back at the part arrived and no one called me. It was at this time that I explained that an apple magsafe charger was missing from our car during the first service. I chased twice about this to get an answer, which ultimately came back as 'we aren't responsible for items in your car'. It's just a $60 charger, but the polarizing experience between being able to bill our insurance company, and then our experience of them making good on problems they caused, on their own dime......VERY different.

The first mishap came when they told me my bill was going to be less than $1000 but ended up being about $2000 when I came to pick it up. They said they'd work with me but ended up knocking off only about $20 as if that made a difference. Then, I take a look at the work they did and it was just terrible. They gave me every excuse under the sun but ended up taking it back to "fix" a few issues that still remained on the car. We spoke about them fixing multiple issues, however, only one of them was addressed when I came to pick up my car for the second time. The service manager kept trying to tell me I don't know what I'm talking about despite personally working on a Best Paint In Show awarded car at Pebble Beach. The more I spoke to him, the more I realized how much of a scam artist this guy, and apparently the company, is. Either way, once again, they told me I could bring the car back for a third time to get the scuffs buffed out that they were supposed to take out already. The next thing that happened just goes to show how dishonest they truly are. The insurance company recommended a new bumper and EuroCollision both charged me for one and "confirmed" they replaced it. However, a few months later, I decided to sell off my car in pieces, and the "new" bumper that EuroCollision "installed" has a 2003 manufacturers date on it, in addition to very unique damaged that was present before my visit. CONFIRMED: EuroCollision practices insurance fraud and passes the BS onto its customers because they're not fulfilling the work they're supposed to be. Finally, upon removing my rocker panel, I found about 5lbs of glue to make the weather strip stay in place after they broke it and decided they didn't want to spend $10 to replace it. So while removing the rocker panel, the glue ripped off paint and is now destroyed. I will absolutely be doing everything in my power to get the word out that EuroCollision is a bunch of scam artists.
