September 9/19
I was scheduled for a 7:30 am appt to get and shocks and struts, wheel balancing and alignment done to my older but in excellent condition 2003 Chevy Trailblazer. In 10 yrs I only put on 50,000 kms!!!
My husband and I used to get our vehicles serviced at a different non- dealership establishment in Leduc, but once they changed ownership everything went downhill and they didn't value their customers anymore, it was all about the money!
So I was experiencing a lot of shimmy in my steering wheel and my SUV drove very rough and I knew I needed shocks and struts for quite some time.
I had them replaced at the previous establishment we used to go to and I don't know what they did, but it didn't make a big difference.
Today, when I drove home, WOW! It was like floating on air. It's like I have a brand new SUV!
Not only that, Chris was so helpful to explain the wear and life of my tires. The brand of tires I had, (which are made by Michelin). Told me I have a good 3 years left on these tires.
Chris also did and explained, the under the hood fluid level inspection for me. He is so kind and friendly. He explains everything so well and answers all your questions. He's been in the business for over 18 years he said, so I'm more than confident in what Chris has to say than anyone else, to be totally honest.
At the end of our transaction Chris couldn't stress enough of how important it is to get my wheels torqued after about 100 kms, for my safety. He gave me an example of someone who didn't and their wheel came off doing 120 kms on the hwy. and their axle fell causing $3500. damage to a $2500 vehicle.
Alot of times, people don't listen to what has been told to them after a service has been done to their vehicles. Therefore they come back with problems, wanting Kal Tire to fix them. And if they are not fixed to their liking it's Kal Tires fault. This I don't agree with nor do I agree with some of the negativity regarding Kal Tire in Leduc!!
Sure, I can understand someone having a bad experience, however, any such time, has always been address by the Kal Tire representative ( whomever it happens to be at the time) for the customer to come in and talk about it and rectify the issue together, the most professional and friendly way possible.
What more could you ask for from a business?
When leaving Kal Tire, Chris wished me and my husband good day and stated, that they appreciated our business.
We haven't heard that for a long time from other businesses where we spent a lot of money for years.
It was very nice to hear that someone appreciated
our business. If all goes well, we will have a long a happy business relationship with Leduc
