Leadership sets the tone for any workplace, and unfortunately this location appeared to have very…read morelittle direction or accountability during my visit. The manager was essentially absent, staff were openly arguing, and the environment felt chaotic and unprofessional from the moment I arrived. I had scheduled an appointment for a tire repair, yet there was no one at the front desk for quite some time. The one bright spot in this experience was Anthony. Despite being buried in work with what looked like a mountain of tires, he still stepped up to help me when no one else would. He handled everything from start to finish on his own, remained polite and professional throughout the entire process, and repeatedly apologized for both the behavior of the other employees and the lack of management presence. Anthony worked quickly, stayed composed under pressure, and provided excellent customer service in a very difficult environment. He deserves recognition for how he handled the situation. Meanwhile, the rest of the staff continued arguing loudly and behaving unprofessionally the entire time I was there. At one point, a man came out to my car yelling at employees and threatening to send everyone home if they did not listen to him. I have no idea who he was, because the manager name listed at the desk was Jessica. Near the end of my appointment, a woman arrived back at the location with another man and a dog, but by that point the lack of leadership and organization had already made a very poor impression. If not for Anthony's professionalism and hard work, this experience would have been far worse. Anthony gets 5 stars and should be manager himself one day but as for the rest good luck.

I had used West previously so I wasn't anticipating any issues. The car was not operable due to a…read moredrive shifter issue. I called AAA and they referred me to West. We needed to have the car towed from house to the dealer for service. The driver was nice, and very careful loading up the car so everything seemed fine. When I asked him to hand the key to the dealer service rep, he said he'd just drop the car in the first available spot because the dealership is under construction and very busy. I immediately called the dealer to tell them the car would be there in about 30 min. The car was towed to the dealer, but the key was NOT handed to anyone and somehow lost! The driver claimed to have left it in the cup holder yet the dealer valet and service team could not locate it. Now, no one claims responsibility and we're out $200 to replace the key. West claims that it is routine for their drivers to just leave the key, but doesn't it seem reasonable to hand it off to an employee during business hours? Oh, and I had to drive to the dealer to provide the only remaining key so they could work on the car. Again, what seemed like good, careful service was lacking responsibility in something as simple as providing the car key to a dealer employee. I wouldn't recommend West again to deliver a car to a location. It seems it's their policy to drop it and leave.

My 2012 Honda Fit needed work on its exhaust system and I ended up paying slightly (VERY slightly) more than the $225 estimate I was given. I had anticipated a bill of $500 or more; something I most certainly did NOT share with the franchise owner before the work was done. In short (too late, I suppose), they did the work, and my little four-cylinder no longer sounds like a 2 1/2 ton, ten-wheeled Studebaker troop transport. Never has anyone from this franchise approached me in the middle of a job to tell me I needed to have another $200, $300, $500 - or 75-cents - worth of work done. People love to bitch...especially about their auto mechanic. But in this instance, I had NO bitching to do. Until significant changes are made in the crew of machinists at Meineke's Gardner facility I will continue to be a loyal, satisfied customer. A big "THANK YOU" to all the employees and bosses. They are the best!
