First:
The receptionist was perfect, and the damage was fixed completely!
Second and MOST importantly:
The owner is a horrible person. He is very verbally combative and confrontational. He got in my face, literally, trying to intimidate me both verbally and physically! He never once apologized for his company's mistakes, nor for calling my names continuously!
Customer service is not this man's genes. In fact, I would describe him as a bully, abusive even.
When this is the case, chances are his employees aren't happy and do subpar work. That's just reality.
Ironically I spoke with one employee who told me twice, the owner is difficult to work with, and it is the workers that feel his wrath with he gets into it with customers, but assured me he also "suffers" with all the stress that comes with owning a business. I told the employee "good, he should!"
The owner may or may not read this review, I doubt he cares. He did nothing wrong legally. In the end, he made money. However, I don't have to give him any of my business in the future, and can make sure if anyone asks, I tell them what a horrible person he is!
Verbal and physical intimidation is protected up to a point legally, and the owner knows when not to cross the line. That doesn't make him a good businessman, it just makes him an a-hole!!!
I found two new scratches that run across the width of the back door of my vehicle, that WERE NOT present when I dropped it off. I believe, the owner had something to do with this. But I have no proof. Very convenient for him.
Part of me finds this man so alarmingly unprofessionally and cruel even, I wonder what more I may find wrong with my vehicle in the near future, ironically I have 10,000 mile check-up with my dealer this week, and will be sure to ask for a more in-depth look than usual for anything that needs to be addressed, out of the ordinary wear and tear.
Needless to say, I will NEVER use the service of this company again, and even told my insurance company they shouldn't either.
IN CLOSING:
Below is what I found from the company website, I DID NOT alter the text, so when you read "CUSTOMER" in all capitals, that is how it is presented. As if they are making up for the lack-of customer care to be proud of.
