This is the biggest mess of neglect, absolute 0 care and utter disregard of responsibility. I brought them 3 of my cars, and they managed to create problems with all of them. "We work on all cars upon request" is the biggest bs lie I've ever heard from any shop, because based on the work they did for me, monkeys with wrenches would have done a better and higher quality job.
I brought them my Ford for timing belt service. They managed to damage crank pulley, and it was backordered from Ford so the car was stuck at the shop. Oh well, what can they do, so I wasn't mad or upset, I understood the situation. Then I finally bought the needed part (1.5 months later) and brought it to them. I was told the work needed is like 30 mins tops. A week goes by, nothing. I follow up and they don't have an ETA. Okay, I will wait a bit more. Overall it took them almost 3 weeks after I brought the part to finally finish my car. Apparently there were some issues with the tech who worked on it, but it really shouldn't be my problem, why do I need to wait 3 weeks to get my car fixed AFTER you had everything needed on hands? Then they release the car back to me, I pop the hood and there coolant expansion tank is bone dry. How the hell do you release the car back to the customer with no coolant in it?! Absolutely outrageous.
Then the issue started with one of the rear shock making noise, squeaking high pitch during driving. I had to drive back and forth to them to get it resolved. It took them 3 tries to fix it. Every time they were simply guessing what it could be (swapping the shock left to right, cleaning the dust shield, etc.) - they spent absolutely 0 time actually trying to diagnose the problem. And then the alignment that also took 2 tries to get done right.
Then I brought them Civic. They did some engine work and rear brakes. Shortly after the brakes started making a horrible high pitch noise while driving and not using the brakes. I go back, they tell me it's the coating, drive more. Fine, drove more, same issue. I go back again. Some random drunk as hell dude (Will's friend I guess) rides with me in the car explaining how sport brakes will make noise. Except the brakes that were installed are ECO version. Also who the hell let's his drunk friends interact with customers?! Unacceptable on so many levels. I drive more, same noise. I go back 3rd time. They swap pads left to right, making the noise even worse. I pressed up to change brakes under warranty. They finally did after a month of back and forth. And what do you know? The noise is back with new brakes. Clearly they have no idea what they were doing, because after brake inspection at a local tire shop revealed the brakes were installed incorrectly. This places swaps motors, but can't install a set of brakes correctly?! Wth is this?! I have reasons to suspect it was done un purpose, because there is no way to make the same mistake twice in a row.
Then I brought them my BMW for thermostat replacement. They did it, CEL went away only to return 4 days later. I contacted them, brought the car back in, they scanned the ECU, did not do any inspection or investigation, and told me it's probably sensor, or wiring. I asked them to get the quote so I can get it fixed, because I needed to register the car, and needed to pass SMOG. he quote never came. I went to a local BMW shop who scanned the car extensively, and told me everything points back to bad thermostat. I go back to Concept Lame, and they told me it's not thermostat, it's sensor, or wire, or whatever. Time was running out, the quote never came because they are too busy making stupid videos instead of actually working with customers, I brought my car to a local BMW shop. They replaced tstat, and what do you know? It fixed the problem. I brought they tstat that was taken out of my car back to Concept Lame and asked for refund on part cost, I will eat the labor cost. Months of excuses "oh we gotta contact Wordpac to process warranty" and "oh we haven't heard back from them" - today I was told that because I took my car somewhere else the warranty is denied, and there is nothing they can do. And they said someone else told me that before. Well that was absolute news to me. So you just kick me around for 5 freaking months just to tell me the warranty is denied?! So I paid for service that didn't fix the problem, got defective part installed, I was refused a quote on further repairs, nobody did any inspection, I was lied to with waiting excuses, and now I have to just suck up the cost and forget about it?! Hell nah!
These guys are absolute crooks! I wasted so much gas, time and money going back and forth. How do you manage to mess up 3 different cars from 3 different brands?! It's unbelievable the lowest quality of work and service this pseudo shop provides. If you value your time, money and want quality service, stay the hell away from this clown of a shop! read more
