I was running behind with my appointment and I was close to being locked out if I didn't make it to my appointment but thank god for Alan. He was able to get me squeezed in. He got me in and out, you don't find good genuine customer service these days. I appreciate him for going out his way for the clients at life safer. read more

They are so unorganized I have missed multiple days of work because they didn't answer the phone to give me a code and numerous times when I'm upset they just hang up on me. This place is the worst read more

If I could give zero stars, I would. This company is a complete joke when it comes to customer service. I've dealt with a lot of companies over the years, but this one takes the cake for being the most disorganized, rude, and unhelpful group of people I've ever encountered. A woman by the name of "Eddy" refuses to help or handle a conversation professionally. Her entire demeanor has been passive aggressive with a hint of sarcasm and a splash tyrant behavior. I spent a long time trying to get a simple issue resolved, and not only was I not getting answers, but she had the audacity to read back some fraudulent "notes" with "calls" that were made when clearly didn't receive such thing. It honestly feels like they go out of their way to frustrate customers. It's insulting how little they care and seems as though they are the "Law" but looking down on people who have had unfortunate experience of getting a DUI. I'm beyond fed up and will NEVER do business with them again. I'll also make sure to tell everyone I know to steer clear of this mess of a company. Avoid at all costs. read more

If you end up needing an IID, this place is the best to go. They have wonderful customer service and they are always on time and efficient. I'm the unfortunate event of a DUI, they make your life a little easier. read more

LifeSafer Ignition Interlock-Sacramento - Auto Customization Near Me - Sacramento, California

Unfortunately I needed to use their services. The device was originally installed poorly and caused issues with my fairly new vehicle, my car stopped starting in the middle of summer. I had to have my vehicle towed to the dealership which is quite costly and come to find out the problems stemmed from the device. The diagnosis cost me over $200 and after over four months, I have yet to be reimbursed from this company after being promised I would multiple times. I finally got in contact with Tony after he deliberately ignored my situation for 4 months, & never responded to my emails after I sent in the receipts. He yelled at me on the phone, talked to me condescending & unprofessional, told me it's not his problem & then hung up on me. (I found out this was typical behavior for him) I recommend anybody that needs these services to avoid Life Safer at any cost, I also informed my attorney to stop referring this company to his clients in the future. They will nickel and dime you, and potentially cause damage to your vehicle with zero repercussions. (I attached the invoice from the dealership telling me the device was causing issues to my car, while Tony still claims they're not accountable) read more

LifeSafer Ignition Interlock-Sacramento - Auto Customization Near Me - Sacramento, California

They are full of lies and will send you on a wild goose chase to get the device removed. They lie about their fees and never call you back when they say they will. Don Not use their services, it's a scam read more

This company is a scam im eligible to get my device removed but they will not call me back nor do what they need to for the customer and ask the correct questions to dmv ! They keep saying im not eligible but why did dmv give me my license back then ? This company just wants more of your money its a scam read more

RUN AWAY NOW! Do NOT come here. I dont care how desperate you are. They destroyed my fiance's Tundra by cutting the electrical, draining the battery, and forcing us to pay for the damages. Then lied and said it was our fault. Ummm... we drove the truck here, and the electrical was working. Even worse, they destroyed the stereo and we were forced to buy another disc to get everything up and running again. The guys at Toyota Elk Grove stated the tech cut the wires and it was obvious upon inspection. Regardless, LifeSafer had their tech come out and do the repair. But because they drained the battery and messed up the radio, we had to pay out of pocket. When we went back 2 months later (because we were forced to stay due to their contract) we were locked out of the truck. We tried to leave at 12pm for our 1pm appt. The truck was locked. After 3 hours of waiting for Jasmine to call us with a code to unlock the truck, and approx 50+ phone calls later, we paid for a tow. We arrived at the shop and the gal there didn't know how to repair the camera. We asked her how she could repair it and she said she didn't know. So we were forced to keep our truck in their shop for 2 days. Monday we got a phone call from Amie telling us that the truck was in the parking lot, the device was removed, and they were cancelling service because my fiance yelled at her. I witnessed the entire conversation and all he asked her was, "how am I supposed to get to work?" He never raised his voice. So because their employee cant handle a concerned customer, we're now being charged $330 for early cancellation and removal of the device. You seriously cannot make this stuff up! It has been a challenge during an already emotional, scary, stressful time. Yes, we've made mistakes that forced us to seek an interlock system... but we didn't expect to be taken for our money, our time, our peace of mind, our safety, and damage to a very expensive Tundra. Whats even worse, if you demand to speak to a manager they send you to Tony. Tony is rude, disrespectful, condescending, and unprofessional. Save yourself, your life, your soul... Run away from LifeSafer! read more

Do to the situation they put me in I was forced to hurry and find another company to do the install all over again SUPER smooth install no issues at all. Very respectful and knowledgeable people that don't scam you. I REALL wish I'd have done my homework ahead of time before. Save yourself, your life, your soul... Run away from LifeSafer! read more

This is the worst place!!! After being charged over 400.00 $ they can't even jump my vehicle and are making me call a tow company. I haven't been this miss treated ever from over charging me to just plain rude people. If you have a choice go somewhere else. The office manager who I spoke with yesterday acted like he was some kind of cop. So accusatory and with zero de-escalation skills. I will be disputing all charges read more

See all

Going out of my way to write this review to say that Dakota is a pretty chill dude that knows exactly what he's doing. I thought he was the manager! Anyway, this place might seem a bit questionable, but their prices are competitive and I didn't have any issue with their service. Each calibration is a quick in and out - no fuss. read more

This is a horrible company that capitalizes upon disadvantaged people. I think in due time the world is going to look at a business like this and realize that it doesn't need to exist and shouldn't exist. This company behaves as though a tyrant does, since their clients are forced into doing business with LifeSafer. Their representatives are rude and overly-assertive, and they basically treat you like a prisoner. Their equipment is outdated and did harm to my vehicle as well -- damage that I had to pay for out of pocket and LifeSafer does not hold themselves accountable for. Again, an ATROCIOUS company to do business with. I'd suggest you go literally ANYWHERE else. read more

The People on the phone were nice they are sells men but what they don't tell you is all the blind charges they add to your account I asked if I removed the device myself if it would be ok they said yes. I got the device out and then called to set up a time to drop it off. Then they told me I would still have to pay the 150$ Deinstallation Fee. read more

Customer service was polite however everything else is a pain. They did not mention that there's an installation fee of 200$ for an electric car . So it's funny they say no hidden fees on their website. The device was faulty two days after install. 5 days after , the red lights were going off and I had to schedule an appointment to get it fixed. When I called their office to get an appointment for removal, they wanted me to wait 2 weeks to get it removed . After asking to get a sooner date, they were able to "find an open spot" for an earlier date. read more

Watch out for fake fees. $80 this time, $130 next. They claim you have dirty tests but it was not possible in this case. They cut into the electrical system which you would expect, but they destroyed it and then wrapped everything in electrical tape when they pulled it out. The most unprofessional install possible! read more

If I could give zero stars I would. It seems customer service is nonexistent since we are court ordered to pick this company. Here is how my experience went. 6/5/19- Got device installed. 6/11/19- Car flashes abort code over and over will not start I have to miss work due to this. 6/12/10- Tried to get a hold of customer service after hours I finally talked to a human being (she said it was my car battery at fault) 6/13/19- Had to pay $120 for tow truck to service center which I was told I would get reimburse if my battery was not the issue. 6/16/19- Service center said it was my battery paid $200 for this 6/20/19- Car flashes abort code again will not start I live in Texas it was over 100 degrees that day and I had my 3 year old son (had to ditch my car at Walmart and pay for a uber home) 6/22/19- got my car to work it is so unreliable I could not take it drove it to service center for service When I got there service charged me $88 on my card for "daily monitoring fee" most days it wouldn't even work! I am switching over to a PAM device due to the absolutely terrible time I had with LifeSafer. I suggest you do the same right away oh and they are gonna charge me $250 for wanting to cancel early WOW maybe if the device worked and I could use my car I wouldn't cancel? I am a single father and this caused me to miss much needed work shame on you and you're company. I will never get a DWI again thats forsure! Maybe invest money into customer service and you will keep peoples business and get more positive reviews, its like its nonexistent. read more

If you have to get an interlock I highly recommend this place! Unlike the other companies this place is straightforward and no hidden fees. No charge for recalibration only the monthly fee which you can do bimonthly or monthly. read more

I haven't had any issues with my device and have had it for almost 18 months I hear horrible problems with other companies I recommend this place over any read more

Worst customer service ever. Mean people with mexican accent yelling at you on the phone. My mechanic had my vehicle with computer problem. they had to run it and could not blow into it ever 5 minutes. So they charged me a fine, plus to get it started. They just want to steal and rape your money from your bank account. Cuntamatic transmission. I was refused service because of the device! read more

Chris is super awesome! He helps me out every time and does his job immaculately and definitely deserves a raise!!! Thank you for being greatman! read more

I can imagine working here would be rough. No one would be happy to come to this place due to the impact it has on your life. What I got that I didn't expect was friendly service techs who put up with my many many questions and offered some moral support and advice for getting through this mistake of mine. The location is awesome and discreet. I don't really wanna run into anyone I know while getting my device serviced. The price is fair and I have never had to wait for them as they have always been ready at my appointment time. I read the below reviews and they do not seem consistent with the experience I have had. Possibly the company may have restaffed. read more

Travis is awesome. Very helpful and good conversation while waiting to get car calibrated. Thank you! read more

I had a device installed when I was in a collision on Wednesday. My maintenance appointment was on Friday. I'm now being charged a "missed appointment fee" for GETTING IN AN ACCIDENT IN WHICH MY CAR WAS TOTALED AND MISSED MY APPOINTMENT. I even called the day of the accident to let them know I wouldn't be coming... almost 48 hours ahead of time. Also, Supervisor Anthony, aka Tony, can't take a joke. He says "if you want to play games..." as I was JOKING and trying to fully understand all of my fees and charges. After that, he was the single rudest person I've ever come into contact with in customer service. Based on this alone, I would not recommend anyone searching for a IID installation and servicer to use LifeSafer. He is a detriment to their customer service department, shouldn't be dealing with people anywhere, ever, and I hope nobody has to have their blood boiling on a Friday 2 weeks after a MAJOR accident. As the video meme on the internet says "F*** you, Tony." read more

Poor customer service!! They set up an appointment to take out my IID and they were not prepared! They did not do their job and contact Dmv to get the approve! Now I have to take more time off work to come back another day and hope these people do their job and get the approval from Dmv to take this shyt out of my car!!! I recommend trying a different company! Very very poor customer service!! The manager is a b*tch too! F this place! read more

Came 10 minutes early today for my appointment at 10 and Travis was able to take me in right away. Nice gentleman answered all my questions and was able to get me in and out right away. Thank you and keep up the good work ! read more

I'm not going to lie I had some issues with this company but I wanted to give a 5 star review to their manager Tony who did went out of his way to help me out!! read more

Breathalyzer will kill your (new) battery leaving you stranded. Had to tow the car from a grocery store parking lot. Call help desk was unresponsive as it was after working hours. Their garage messed with the electric wiring in my car causing a check engine light to come on. read more

Where do I even start.... first let me start out by saying due the choices I made, I had to get in bed with terrible company. I don't fee that a company should be able to take advantage of other peoples misfortune by offer below standard service to individuals that already have enough on their plate. I'm actually writing this review while being on hold for the second time for 45 minutes, due to the first call just being disconnected. When I originally had their equipment installed I was told it could take up to 4 hours and it actually took the installer 2 days. Hey things happen so I continued forward with their services... not to mention this is court ordered so you're at their mercy. A few months into this contract their equipment would give my the pass indicator after blowing but my still wouldn't start. I was told by the customer service it was a malfunction with my car not their equipment. I had both my battery and alternator check, per their instructions, and both check out fine. I was told to take it to one of their service station for diagnosis and was told it was fine. For the next few month between it taking their service station hours to calibrate the equipment and their equipment leaving me stranded on multiple occasions, they finally started to refund me my monthly fee each time it wouldn't work. This has been going on since 2017. Fast forward to this past weekend (Sunday).Due to a family emergency I had to reschedule my appointment from Saturday to Tuesday. Due to me being on shift at the fire department Monday. I was told I had until Tuesday at midnight before it locked out. I wake up Monday morning to go to work and the car is locked out..... I have been trying all morning to get someone on the phone to help and I just get transferred from sales and placed on hold... please do yourself a favor and DO NOT do business with this company!! read more

This company can NOT be trusted!! Buyers beware please!! My brand new car was damaged and the supervisor and owner denied it ever happened. My car was there in their shop for 5 hours! If you care about your car, take photos They run a bad business they have been sued plenty of times. Now I know why I should of checked Yelp before I choose them the ignition device that was installed was exactly where the damage is. How can the owner David be so oblivious to this it's heart breaking also the supervisor was so rude no one likes the straight facts but my car was less then a month old I have given them every opportunity to fix this am they keep refusing So sorry for them, that's why a big company carries great insurance how could someone argue with a customer. They must care about their reputation. read more

Still would rate a 0. I haven't been able to drive my car since I got the device and it's now been two months. I'm serious guys, don't use them. They'll charge you with any chance they get. Go with intoxilock, they even waived my initial fee for switching. read more

Do not come here I've had problems after problems I'm literally about to call them right now to help me with the device that won't turn on at all I got a second new battery and my device still won't work this is trash u pay monthly to have additional problems I will never recommend them worst experience I've ever had ever stay clear of this garbage read more

Made an appointment to have IID installed. When I got to the service center, I'm told my appointment was rescheduled, 2 weeks out & at another service center about 20 miles from me. They say they called me, but I didn't get any calls or msgs from them. So now I'm inconvenienced because I took off work early to go and get the install, and now have to do the same again. I got some BS about the rep who made the appointment didn't work at the call center where I was calling. Which is no excuse because all reps should be trained accordingly. Wasted almost an hour at the service center trying to talk to someone about their screw up. read more

6/15 I had my final appointment with my DUI classes and they said they would let the DMV know within 3 days. The DMV was notified that I had satisfied my obligation on 6/17. 6/15 I showed up for my last service appointment with my interlock device subcontractor. I was told that everything was done electronically and that my next appointment would be device removal. 7/20 Waited a month, came back in late July to have the device removed. I drove 8 hours round trip. They had not processed the paperwork (despite being told they would) and I was turned away. 8/01 I still have the device on my car (despite the court and DMV not requiring it). I have paid for 2 extra months, waited 2 extra months, wasted hundreds of dollars, and spent HOURS trying to call them or email with them. They put you on hold for 30min, then send you to voicemail. They have called me back during work hours or even when I'm asleep (nearly 10pm). 8/23: For the second week in a row I have been told that I have an appointment on Saturday to remove the device. Both times I contacted LifeSaver (they didn't contact me) on Friday night only to discover that I did not have an appointment and that it was going to be put off again. I previously had a review on TrustPilot but they flagged it claiming I wasn't a customer (then why do I still have your device on my car?). This is complete insanity. AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS. read more

The Sacramento location did not properly reassemble my 2021 Honda passport. Took the vehicle back to be told it's right despite it not being fix. Got in contact with one of there systems specialist Anthony Munoz. Anthony was incredibly confrontational making me feel like I was wrong and lying. Ultimate just took the car to Honda who was nice enough to fix lifesafer's bad work. Avoid this company read more

They did not transfer my Vin number from my old car to my new car to the state of Minnesota and that held me up for three weeks. Who is going to pay for that for me? I've been a customer of theirs for almost 3 years and they really screwed this one up when I bought a new car! Highly recommend talking to customer service and anyone you can get on the phone make sure you doublecheck triple check number is it then number license plate number every thing. They have someone behind the phone making $10 an hour and don't give two shits about your way of living in your way of getting around. I would automatically talk to a supervisor. Just my experience!! read more

A complete piece of crap. I would highly recommend using a different device. If not, you will die of heat stroke while you sit in your car in the heat of summer for 15-20 minutes awaiting for the device to allow you to crank the car. read more

I am an attorney that handles Michigan License appeals. This is the WORST company I have ever dealt with. It is absolutely impossible to speak to anyone without unreasonable periods on hold. Once you do get to a human they provide NO answers and appear totally untrained and unknowledgeable. DO NOT even consider using this company. The worst I have ever had the displeasure of dealing with. read more

I'm not gonna lie, this is the last place where I would ever want to be. But there's this employee named Kris makes it all worth it. Every time I go into calibrate my vehicle he always has a big smile on his face & he's always on time and ready to help me. It's never a dreading dull moment when my cat is being calibrated he makes great conversation and by the time you know it it's time to go. I like him because he treats me with respect and does make me feel bad for having a dui. My time is almost up it's been a long 2 years for me, but I must say I will miss him very much . read more

Where do I begin. First off this review is for the professionalism of the corporation as a hole. The tribute location has great employees and friendly staff. So I scheduled an appointment to get my breathalyzer installed and then made the appointment to dmv so that I could get my license back. Once there to get my installation it was being done by a new employee who was still learning the computer system. During the install the system crashed a few times and the employee couldn't get the forms to print in addition had to be shown and explained what needed to be done in regards to forms being filled out and signed. Which copies were theirs and which were mine. The hole process took longer then expected but I had patience as we have all had a first week On the job and I have a 2017 Tahoe with a push button start. The installer did a great job and I have had no issues. After completion of the instal I was given the forms to take with me to dmv. When I got to dmv and waited for my number to be called once called I went up to the window and come to find out the technician didn't fill my form out correctly. He put N/A in the spot where my license plate and vin should have gone. Not realizing that I needed that information on the form since they email everything to dmv as well I didn't think anything about it. After leaving the dmv with nothing since I couldn't have a fax or emailed copy I called lifesaver.The lady said sorry I should have known and that a new copy would be at the location I got it installed. I live in Folsom and that's where my dmv appointment was scheduled for. I had to drive from Folsom to Arden to get the form then back to Folsom to wait for 3 more hours in dmv just to get my license. I never got an apology or any offer of compensation for their mistake or any type of accountability from them at corporate. Today I got a call saying I missed an appointment and that there would be a $25 missed appointment fee. I tried to talk to customer service and explained what happened the first time to see if they would waive the fee and unfortunately the operator said that there was nothing they could do. What frustrated me the most was the operator made it seem like it was my fault for not checking all the paperwork and verifying what their employee had done in regards to filling out their form and doing their job. I was suppose to know that it was not done properly or in accordance with dmv protocol. To make it worse the operator I spoke too had an attitude and horrible grammar. I'm not that educated of a person but I do expect phone etiquette or at least complete sentences when addressing a customer. So be aware if you want to be treated like your the problem sign up with LifeSafer. Feel free to pay them monthly and please make sure all your paperwork on their end is filled out correctly. Show them how to do their job and make sure they do it correctly. They do not care about your TIME or SCHEDULE all they want is your MONEY!!! read more

I would give this place ZERO STARS if I could!! Absolutely worst customer service, both on the phone and in person. Obviously don't care about customers. They know they will get money because their business is soley court-ordered (cuz lets face it, no one actually gets a breathalyzer in their car if they don't have to). GO ANYWHERE ELSE!!! Honestly, even if it costs a little more. DO NOT COME HERE. DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR BUSINESS, MONEY, or TIME!!!!!!! read more
