Over the past 3-4 months I have had an array of problems with my electric scooter, some of which were a direct result of the business. I have yet to have an experience that went smoothly start to finish. Each time I have received incomplete/sloppy work or at the very least the work took almost 10 times longer than promised. As the child of a small business owner, I am typically accustomed to and understanding of small businesses bumps and hiccups. However, my experiences were not just small business hiccups.
My first couple of times in the shop I was disrespected by employees, and I had no plans on coming back until I was forced as they are the only shop I have found that will work on electric scooters. When I brought in a flat tire, they replaced the tire with an inner tube that had a valve that hit part of my scooter with each rotation of the wheel. Recently I brought my scooter in have solid tires installed. They estimated that it would take 1 week to have the tires delivered and they installed. A week passed and I was called to see if I had the tires. They continued to not finish installing the tires for another 3 weeks. Within a week of picking up my scooter, my scooter was having mechanical issues and the motor was not working efficiently. I also noticed a zip tie on the frame of my scooter. I brought it back to the shop and they said it would be fixed in a day. It was not. I returned the next week and when I arrived I was told that they exposed wires during the installation. They had zip tied exposed wires to the metal frame of my scooter. They estimated another day for it to be fixed, and it again took a week. Essentially, it took them a month to break my scooter and their work has likely voided my 1 year warranty. In their opinion their job is complete and my scooter is in perfect working condition. Given their history incomplete work, I am hesitant to believe their assessment and wary of selling my scooter when I am unsure of its condition and warranty status. Bottom line, their work is inconsistent and they promised completed work in a total of 7-10 days and my scooter was unfixed and in their shop for 7 weeks. read more
