I scheduled my vehicle for repair on a Monday. They changed it to Tuesday. I dropped it off and was…read moretold it would be ready by next Wednesday. I called on the following Tuesday and was informed that it would be another week due to an issue with parts. An issue I had no control over. I didn't appreciate not being kept up to date and I told the receptionist as much. I may have said it was bullshit practice not to keep a customer informed or something along those lines. I wasn't happy. Anyway, she was apparently offended and today, Thursday, the manager calls and gives me shit for being not nice. So to recap: 1-they told me when it would be ready 2-they knew that changed but didn't bother to tell me 3-I call to confirm pick up and THEN they tell me there's a delay 4-the manager then thinks it prudent to call and berate a customer and says he listened to the tape of the call and claims I hung up and swore at her - not so much, but whatever. I told him it's the lack of communication and the poor attitude that's the issue. Is it just me or should they have let me know what's going on? And according to the manager " you have a rental so it's no big deal" seems a bit off. Perhaps keep your customers informed of changes and don't piss them off by being stupid about it. I don't know about the quality of their work but their customer service leaves a lot to be desired. I'll review their work when I finally get my vehicle back.

They showed up on time, vacuumed every crumb, erased the winter salt, hand-washed the exterior, and left the paint super shiny in under three hours!

They're really straight-forward, down-to-Earth and don't try to upsell you. They'll let you know if there are parts that can wait to be replaced or if they need to be done right away. Once my car had a sporadic strange noise and when they couldn't find an issue on my first visit, they told me to drop in any time it was doing it without making an appointment. (They've since figured it out and fixed it.) They offer taxi chits if you need to drop your car off and go somewhere and come back. I am a repeat customer because of their customer service and recommend them regularly. The only drawback at this location is that sometimes parking can be hard to find. When that happens, I usually just pull up in front of the window and pop in to ask where they want me to leave the car. It also helps that they have a 10% CAA discount!
