Ive have done business with Scal koll before, when I've had work done to my vehicles. And things went ok. I had a Toyota Tacoma in the shop when I was rear ended and it was put back together fine.
However this last experience when I piled up my 2013 mustang. I can say I wasn't overly satisfied with the work. 2 weeks in the shop, and a few things bothered me. The hood and fender has a gap larger than the other side. It's not noticeable unless you live breath and dream mustang. However me being the owner I notice it. I'm guessing the sub frame is ever so slightly tweaked or the hood has a small defect in the angle. They told me there was nothing more they could do. They tried two different fenders and a gt hood and a stock v6 hood.
I did however appreciate Brenda, for letting me barrow her personal car after I turned in my rental a few hours to early. She let me take hers home ( I live somewhat close) to chill till my car was buffed and washed and dried.
However the part that really sent me to the red zone and no not a buffalo bills scoring red zone td where the fans gone crazy. More like my head might explode red zone. Upon picking it up and driving off my rear tire sensor said low air. The tire was damn near flat. Courtesy of them would of to let me know. Instead I got home and had to put air in the tire. Not sure as of why it was low but that on my list of things to do today. Also I didn't think to check my headlights and fog lights there, since I figured everything was fine.
To my surprise the left headlight and right fog light didn't work. NOT COOL. It was 4:45 on a Friday I raced back over to the shop with minutes to spare to address the issue. They were just about out the door for the weekend. They didn't seem to happy. Turns out the fog light had a bad connection and that was simple fix. However the hid light needed to be ordered due to what I was told was a bad bulb.
Little did they know I have a spare hid bulb at home from a headlight project gone wrong lol. They said they would order one and to bring it back Saturday and they will correct the issue despite not being "open". I said ok and went home knowing I was going to fix this myself. Anyone who knows this year mustang knows accessing the headlight is nearly a entire tear down on the front end. Well that's what I had to do. 2 hours of my time to pull the headlight out to find out there was no bulb at all in there. And no ballast. Just a lonely empty housing.
Was 2 weeks in the shop not long enough ? Did I rush them ? Or were they in a rush themselves?
Overall I'm not overly satisfied. If they forgot the bulb and ballast, what else did they forget.... For $1108.00 I think there shouldn't of been any issues at all.
Update ... The overspray of paint that was on my car ... Absolutely ridiculous! I had to go buy a clay bar kit to remove the excess paint and not make my ride feel like sandpaper. Took me all afternoon to wash wax and bar my car over and over plus an additional 40 dollars in supplies. They say they stand by their work and if not happy to bring it back. Sadly I'm too afraid too. I have just as much talent or more than this shop. Will never recommend them to anyone even if it's a fisher price car that needs fixing. read more
