When Tuffy was broken into and my keys were stolen, I didn't blame Tuffy…read more I do blame Tuffy for failing to communicate basic information, for telling me "F you" and for calling me a bitch. First, the manager, I believe his name was Gary, barked at me when I stated I didn't want to file a claim on my insurance policy since the cost to replace the key would be below my deductible and would cause my rates to go up. (Unfortunately we only had the one set of keys). He stated per their insurance company I had to - so I did. When both the police and my insurance company said to get my vehicle towed right away so that the thieves couldn't come back to steal my car, which my insurance stated would not cover if I didn't move it as I am required to mitigate known risk, I made arrangements to do so immediately. We spoke to the staff at Tuffy 3 times that morning where we advised that a tow truck would be coming to tow the vehicle to the Honda dealership to have new keys made, and all 3 times were told "ok". The tow truck arrived and the fine folks at Tuffy sent them away, as we had not yet paid the bill for the work that was done. They didn't bother to call us when this happened. I'm not an unreasonable person, and I completely understand that the bill should be paid. Never having had a situation like this I wasn't thinking about anything but getting my car out of their lot as both the police and my insurance company advised. Had the folks at Tuffy said anything about the bill the 3 times we spoke that morning I would have paid over the phone immediately. I simply didn't even think about it. The manager informed me that they likely assumed I had already paid. Ok, fair enough. They could have given me a call when the tow truck was there to advise that I needed to pay right then or they would send the truck away - and I absolutely would have paid immediately. The kicker is that when I spoke to the managers at Tuffy and explained my frustration, having made a dozen phone calls during my work day to deal with this issue between Tuffy, the police, my insurance company, and the Honda dealership, there was never an apology. The manager told me it was common sense that they wouldn't release the vehicle until the bill was paid when I asked why no one called me before sending the tow truck away - again, I simply wasn't thinking about anything other than getting my car moved, and when I told him I wouldn't be doing business there anymore told me he wasn't going to deal with me and hung up on me. Nice. When I picked up my vehicle today and again told him I wouldn't be doing business with them anymore, he told me "fuck you" TWICE, and called me a bitch. So I would recommend that you look elsewhere for your vehicle repair needs.

I explained I booked a noon appointment and indicated I would be waiting so I didn't have time to wait an extra hour sitting here. Very frustrating to drive to an appointment that they had no intention of keeping. Two things need to change: 1.) don't allow noon appointments if techs take lunch at noon. 2.) review your scheduled appointments every night and morning and call your customers to reschedule if your not able to keep your appointments. I'm a new customer and tried to keep an open mind and come back and do the service at 1pm. But there was no apologies, discount offered or anything to acknowledge this error. Just $145 for an oil change charged. The waiting room was nice and clean. Update to owners response: There was no attempt to reach out before hand. You should audit your records closer if the team told you that. I have no missed calls emails or texts asking to reschedule before I arrived. The only text I had was a confirmation for the noon time. Don't be defensive just take feedback as a gift for improvement.

It is never "fun" to take a car in for service and face the prospect of significant and/or expensive repairs (especially with a car that has 200,000 miles on it!), being without a vehicle and making decisions about what "needs" to be done now versus what can be done later. Everyone I worked with was pleasant, professional, and not only did they listen to my concerns, but they also gave solid, common sense, recommendations about how best to proceed. In addition, the fact they were able to provide me with a loaner vehicle was extremely helpful as I had a number of things to do that required transportation and I was able to accomplish all of them without any difficulty. I filled up the loaner's gas tank and got it washed which, as always seems to be the case, probably explained the 6" of snow fall that evening. The repairs resolved my issues, and it was a pleasure working with everyone at Ervine's. Perhaps the most meaningful thing I can say is that I will return to Ervine's to deal with some of the remaining issues that were identified.
