Trustworthiness and Transparency

Pros:

  • "They do not rip you off as mention In other reviews and you can trust the staff to look after your car."
  • "Because the problem arose just two days after my previous visit, they didn’t charge me for this visit, which was a relief and much appreciated."

  • "Great service with a replacement exhaust. Very fast, friendly and at a reasonable price."
  • "We booked our MOT on-line at a bargain price and turned up extremely early for the appointment. This was no problem at all and we were able to leave the car with them with no issues at all. The staff were professional, polite and very helpful."
  • "Having received rather shoddy treatment at another garage regarding my car's windscreen wiper failure... Fortunately, they checked the wiper motor first, and with a bit of TLC and some grease, they got my wipers working fine and saved me over £600!"
  • "Great customer service and explanation of future reference to check on my car."

Cons:

  • "POOR RECEPTION & ATTITUDE Quoted for work NOT Required!!"
  • "I wouldn't recommend for an MOT. The car failed for its emissions which is fair enough. However, when I asked what I could do to fix it they said they didn't know!"
  • "Booked an air-con recharge service with Kwik Fit, they tole me both my condenser and compressor were leaking, and it would cost me £750 to fix the problem."
  • "Do NOT trust Kwikfit to repair your vehicle."
  • "Be careful with MOT. Some employees are very fast to fail your MOT and even faster to recommend local garage to perform expensive and unnecessary repairs."
  • "They are opportunist and where possible try to deceive customers..."
  • "Tried to rip me off in excess of £282.35p for repair work not required!!"
