Got in-depth quotes from Ryan and the detail manager on Sunday, expressly buying the "ultimate detail package which includes leather conditioning and clear coat". Several people looked at my car. Added new replacement CXP glass tint and new speakers, stereo module with car play and backup camera.
Dropped off car for Monday 9am appointment. Auto glass guy wasn't there yet, they told me he would call me when he came in.
I called at 4pm, he was gone, my car wasn't ready. Promised again they would call me upon completion.
At 7:30, I called back, peeved. Sure enough, car was "done", at 5:30! No phone call, AGAIN.
Went to get my car, found that they hadn't touched the interior! My "ultimate" $349 detail had been downgraded without my knowledge. But the exterior was still dirty, NO CLEAR COAT applied.
Ryan, manager on duty and MY SALESMAN, told me to bring it back on Friday, says he will "talk with the manager for some resolution ". He's off the next two days!
Had I not spent 10 minutes with a Ryan and the detail manager talking about particulars of the "ULTIMATE" detail, I wouldn't be this upset. Now I must take my car back for yet another lost day. Further, I asked about discounts. Not one person mentored the GROUPON they had been running
Car Toys Beaverton seems to be all about making sales, with no customer service. Ryan could see that I was visibly upset and angry at the condition of my car, but couldn't or wouldn't make it right. Putting me off for four more days isn't the right answer. I have been in retail since 1984. I would NEVER treat a client the way they treat theirs at Car Toys.
I could have paid less for the exterior only detail. They charged me $169,---their Groupon price is $99 Brand new wheels on my car, they didn't have to touch them, and didn't.
I expected so much more.
When I dropped off my car, the young man who assisted me verified that I wanted their ultimate detail with LEATHER CONDITIONING. It is a $349 package with clear coat.
I didn't get it. After two visits to Car Toys, I was specific as I could be, I texted my husband the price of the ultimate detail while discussing it with Ryan, after confirming this ultimate detail when I dropped off my car, I feel I shouldn't have to lose yet one more day, but I must take it back this Friday.
I will write another review after I take my car back. But here are my findings: Their exterior detail left MOSS on my windows, tree pollen and tree droppings all in the windshield drain area. There is green moss or tree pollen stuck on the door trims! There is still tree pitch on the car, after we expressly paid extra for that removal. So while my car looks better, they did a half-hearted job on what was supposed to be a very complete interior/exterior auto DETAIL WITH CLEAR COAT. Their detail man looked at my car with me on Sunday, I was specific about what I wanted done, the Ultimate. Yet no buffing was done beneath the fin on the trunk, it looks awful. No explanation for this, because everyone went home early Monday. The people I spoke with on Sunday weren't there in the morning. Ryan was the only one left when I picked up my car Monday evening.
Communication is sorely lacking at this store. I communicated clearly what I wanted. I was quoted a price for the "ultimate". Why they downgraded this service, and failed to mention the Groupon after I ASKED about any running discounts, makes me furious. I HATE having to take my car back. But the exterior has tree pollen remaining on the door trims and other places listed above.
So not only was this the worst detail experience of my life, the salesman responsible for failing to enter the Ultimate detail correctly, wouldn't take responsibility for having made this mistake. The young man who VERIFIED that I wanted the leather conditioned and clear coat, yet failed to correct the error in the computer, wasn't there when I returned.
Failing to mention the running GROUPON $99 detail coupon, after I asked about discounts, is another issue. This goes to honesty. It feels like a betrayal of customer trust, an integrity issue. In looking at my car after their work was done, I can say that I got a $99 detail, for which I was charged $169.
No, they didn't charge me for the ultimate. But I didn't get what I was expecting, and this is most disappointing. And I really didn't get what I paid for. My car didn't receive the car I expected. The exterior glass want clean. Ryan saw this, too. But as on-duty manager, he didn't know how to resolve this.
And that, as they say, is the rub. read more
