You know that feeling when you get a big box for Christmas, thinking it's going to be a great present, but it's just...a pair of socks... that's what I felt today.
For those who like short reviews:
-- I paid $205 for a poorly done interior detailing. It was obvious that they did not shampoo my car. As soon as I got home, I grabbed my sponge, soaked it in water and brushed it over my seats. The results-- my sponge than the $205 I paid. I even attached pics. On top of this, service was terrible. The person working on my car, Jill, said I would get $50 off because my car took longer than 24 hours to clean. However, when I get there to pick up my car and pay, the owner said I heard wrong and that it was only a gift card. The owner also claimed that the car was actually done last night, but he had them redo it this morning. If they did actually indeed redo it, I am shocked at how poorly the redo was. I was legit devastated and regretting not doing a groupon for a diff location :( never again, motor city, never again. You can take your $50 gift card.
For those who like long (but detailed) reviews:
Here are the details:
1. I own a Ford Fiesta (keep in mind this is a small car)
2. I got the gold package + dog hair fee = $205
3. I made a reservation to drop my car off at 11am on Thursday, July 13. They prefer 9am drop off to ensure you can pick it up same day, so I told them I was fine picking it up Friday at my lunch brunch, in which they told me it would be for sure done by 12.
Here's what happened
1. They weren't done on Thursday, which was fine. I'd rather have them do a thorough job and pick it up Friday.
2. It's Friday now, and I arrive at 11:50am. I see two people vigorously vaccuming my car. Jill sees me and said she called me earlier to tell me it wasn't going to be done by 12, but by 1pm. I apologize for not picking up and ask why it was taking so long. She tells me that they booked too many cars to clean and couldn't get to mine. She tells me that they just started it today and have been working at it since 9 am and thought they would be done by 12pm. She felt bad about the inconvenience and said she would take $50 off. I said okay and get dropped off to work.
3. I come pick up my car at 5:50pm right after work. Jill isn't there. Instead, some other guy who says he is the owner. He charges me and instead of taking 50 dollars off, he gives me a gift certificate for $50. I tell him that I was offered $50 off my bill for the inconvenience. He says, no, that I misheard. That the car was actually done last night, but he saw it this morning and had them redo it because he didn't like the results. Please notice how different these two stories are between the worker that I saw clean my car and this owner who claims he was there.
4. I decide to pay and take my car home. Once I'm home I take a good look and notice that my car was obviously not shampooed. Just to make sure, I go in my kitchen and grab a sponge and just wet it with water. I wipe my seats that have dirt from my dog paws and what do you know, it came off.
Honestly, I wouldn't have minded not getting the $50 discount that I was told, heck, I wouldn't have even minded if I got charged an extra $50 IFFFFF my car was cleaned well and thoroughly. The owner said that they worked on it last night AND they redid it this morning? pleeaseeee. Don't lie. That's the last thing I can't stand.
Will not return.
My sponge is more trustworthy. read more
