Efficiency

Pros:

  • "Despite being short handed, I was in at my allocated appointment time and fixed and away in no time at all."

  • "Fitted the tyre I needed promptly, at an excellent price with no fuss."
  • "Puncture repaired within the hour."
  • "Drove over a bolt that punctured my tyre about half a mile from Kwik Fit. Drove straight in, tyre was repaired and I was on my way in less than 30 minutes!"
  • "I was in and out within an hour and didn't even make an appointment."

Cons:

  • "Sorry but I don't want to go to the Plymouth branch again. There was a problem with my wheel nuts but it was half an hour before they told me."
  • "Visited on Wednesday, they didn't have enough tyres for our car. Was told to come back on Friday."
  • "Came back on Sunday and have been told there are only two people in and I can't be given a time estimate so should leave the car with them all day."
  • "Went in to have 2 slow leaks looked at, I was asked to wait 30 mins before they could be looked at. An hour later they eventually got to me."

  • "Also waited 8.5 hours for an MOT and service to be completed."

Pricing and Honesty

Pros:

  • "Well they could have easily made a sale but when they inspected the wheel it just needed a puncture repair."
  • "Clive price matched four sets of brace discs and pads for me which was appreciated."
  • "Fixed a screw in my tyre, didn't try to sell me a new one."
  • "The defective tyre was checked and I was told a new one wasn't needed."
  • "Kwik Fit rang me and advised that there was sufficient tread and that it would be pointless renewing."
  • "Thank you for being so honest. Highly recommended."
  • "I prepaid and took my car for two new tyres. Kwik Fit rang me and advised that there was sufficient tread and that it would be pointless renewing."

Cons:

  • "Had MOT carried out recently and I have no complaints with the staff and their professionalism however higher management within your company need to have a good look at your pricing system as I was quoted £49.50 for a pair of window wipers."
  • "When I got home I can't believe £145.50 for a new tyre & he didn't put a new valve in."
  • "£150 to change the switch for the headlights, on a car I bought 10 days prior for £750. Terrible service."
  • "Did think the charge of £59.95 for a five minute wheel alignment was excessive."
  • "Took my daughter tyre to be repaired from a puncture said they to replace the tyre as it didn't have much tread on it they wanted £160 to replace."
  • "A very pricey place, perhaps paying for the brand."
  • "I take my car to a smaller, non-branded garage on Mutley Plain, who took a 10 minute look at my car before telling me that the repairs altogether would cost £150-£200, and that Kwik-Fit had outright lied about the price of the repairs needed."

Facility and Cleanliness

Pros:

  • "Clean, workshop and waiting area was nice to see!"
  • "The guys were polite and careful and even cleaned my wheels when finished."

Cons:

  • "Toilets need a good clean and floor in the reception needs cleaning."
  • "More care should be taken when parking customer's car as I found big wet and greasy mark on the inside of the car's door."
  • "They left the alloys filthy, the locking wheel nut on the floor instead of its place and the place where it was absolutely untidy."
