Good service and prompt attention for replacing faulty tyre and rotating other tyres.

vehicle. The report was detailed, easy to understand, and included plenty of supporting photos. Overall, very satisfied with the service and would recommend Stateroads to others looking for a PPI.

Was accurate in time to arrival and did the job good. Chad is a great guy! Tell him I hope his son’s dog is doing well

Like magic, Anthony made my wheel scrapes disappear. He was very professional, arriving on time, working without any fuss or mess and leaving without a trace. It feels good to have a brand new car again. Thanks Anthony!

Disappointing experience – I would not recommend using this service. I booked RedBook Inspect to complete a pre-purchase vehicle inspection on a car… Read more

I was considering buying. Unfortunately, during the inspection, the vehicle was externally damaged.

RedBook Inspect did acknowledge responsibility for the damage and agreed to cover the cost of repairing the vehicle, which I appreciate. However, my experience with the handling of the claim afterwards has been extremely disappointing.

I was asked to obtain quotes for a hire vehicle while the repair process was being organised. After providing the requested information, I was later advised that my claim for hire vehicle costs would be refused. This means that, despite RedBook Inspect accepting responsibility for causing the damage, I would be left out of pocket for the cost of alternative transport during the estimated four-day repair period.

I believe this is an important consideration for anyone booking a vehicle inspection. A vehicle inspection is intended to provide confidence and peace of mind, but if damage occurs during the inspection process, customers should be aware that the company’s responsibility may be limited to the direct repair costs only.

I would encourage anyone considering using this company to carefully read the terms and conditions before booking an inspection. Although the company may cover the cost of repairing damage they cause, there may be limitations around other losses or expenses that occur as a result.

I would also suggest that anyone selling a vehicle carefully considers whether they are comfortable having their vehicle inspected by this company. A vehicle inspection should provide confidence to both buyers and sellers, and damage occurring during an inspection can create a very stressful situation for everyone involved.

Another concern was that RedBook Inspect did not handle the matter through insurance, meaning I was required to deal directly with the company rather than through an insurance process. This left me navigating the consequences of an incident that was not my fault.

Overall, while I acknowledge that RedBook Inspect accepted responsibility for the physical damage, the way the claim has been managed afterwards has left me disappointed. Based on my experience, I would not choose to use this service again and would recommend others carefully consider the potential risks before booking an inspection.

I had a loose panel after a Kangaroo jumped into me quite some time ago. Highway Patrol kindly pulled me over and advised me to get it fixed a few… Read more

weeks ago. Didn't fine me or give me a notice. So I called Sheen at Bayswater on Friday, spoke with Sid who said bring it in after work. Thinking a quote would cost me $$$$ Sid greeted me, took a look and manipulated the panel back into place, screwed in the end and job done. No charge. That was a very very generous thing to do and I really appreciate it. So relieved in the end but this is the type of service which goes a long long way to knowing if I need them (hopefully not) then I know where to go straight off. Thanks again Sid, much appreciated and I want your employer to know this has not gone unnoticed.

Good quality job, competitive cost and quick work at Artarmon branch.

I Paid 680$ for a rear windscreen that wasn’t the correct one for my vehicle (No windscreen wiper) when I asked for a discount for the inconvenience… Read more

I was refused , I went through with the job because I knew I wouldn’t get my money back , was literally handed my rear windscreen wiper/motor so now my car has a missing component and a useless function…..very Unaustralian and unprofessional, would definitely not recommend using this company Call O’briens

I highly recommend touch up guy operator Dave Deakin for the repairs on our Silver Mitsubishi eclipse cross. The damage was to the front bumper,… Read more

front mudguard and plastic wheel arch mould. The repair and colour match is perfect. Dave is very friendly and knows his work. The whole job was $250 cheaper than a panel shop in Blacktown. I highly recommend him.

cocaine. All his smash repairs were fire bombed by outlaw Bikie gangs last year, including his Portsea house. Has been stabbed and had drive by shootings from bikers as well.

He steals your car by posting dodgy adds on Google when he needs work, so when you google your insurance company you end up calling his shop instead, they play along taking your claim then send themselves out to steal your car making you hand it to them with no idea what they doing.

7 news just had Australian actor Christe Browne on asking for help as they stole her car with this advertising scam.

By the time you find out your Insurance company don't have your car it it's too late. He will not return your car, and continues on scamming the Insurance company over charging on repairs and hire car. If there is a problem and he doesn't get paid he keeps your car until you pay the bill which could be tens of thousands, if you don't pay he sells it off for parts.

Poor workmanship and very poor follow-up. The roof liner installation on my HSV Senator caused damage, including glue residue, broken trim, and… Read more

visible rippling. Despite emailing numerous times and being told the installer would contact me, no one ever did. I was forced to pay another company to redo the work and source replacement trim at my own expense. Not happy with this company and would not recommend.

These people have no idea and ripped my 84 year old father off and now harassing him by text, email and phone for an alleged extra $171. He already… Read more

paid $125 callout and $180 per hour for an electrical issue with an electric seat. The technician had no idea about electrical and was using his mobile phone for lighting, inorder to see what he was doing. After he promised that he could fix the issue, he recommended to replace the seat with a manual one. My father paid him $350 after failing to fix the issue. But he screamed and shouted to an old man that he wanted another $171 and is bombarding him with messages.

FYI we have been using Mycar for around 5 years and they have been a cheap but reliable option, however... aftet the last service, my wife's car… Read more

engine failed weeks after being serviced by MyCar, a much loved car in otherwise great running order. I contacted MyCar, had it booked in and has been sitting at the service centre for months now. They took a week to diagnose it - engine has no compression (no reason why/how). No loan car. Have had to purchase another car so that my wife can get to work and take our child to school. After taking the car to MyCar we are now $20,000+ out of pocket - yes, that is 20k for what we would normally budget for as a $600 service. Was following up every week having been told that I will be looked after but we have not heard anything for weeks. The phone consistently rings out with no answer. Also, their complementary road side assistance is useless. Wife and young young daughter left waiting at night on side of a dangerous road for hours after a blown tyre, despite a one hour ETA. Ended up fixing it myself after being told there would be another 2 hour wait. This has impacted massively on our day-to-day life - financially, stress, work etc. I cannot recommend this company and would avoid at all costs!

Great customer service and was booked in really quickly. Alan was amazing and explained everything. The repair was fixed really quickly and is flawless. Highly recommend and would use again without question. Thanks Alan!

[Name Removed] at Midas Darlington S.A is terrible. He quoted me $300-350 for my ute service but charged me $434. He didnt do anything except motor… Read more

oil, oil filter and engine flush. The only thing he really did was diagnose a water leak and give me a huge list of problems. No phone call to fix anything just a bad attitude and a whopping bill. Not a likeable or customer service guy at all. Will never go back there. Do not recommend.

Got our brand new tesla coated with the graphene coating. Our custom blue paint option looks really nice with the coating, definitely looks a lot… Read more

more glossy. Also have the team coming out to install window tints as well, can't wait until it is all done.

I have only taken my car to Automasters twice in 15 years. The first time was at Midland where I was quoted 3 times what I would regularly pay for… Read more

the next service for my Kia Rio, the second was after purchasing a $200 "VIP" Voucher which claims to discount the cost of servicing to parts only. The second Automasters experience from a branch NOR was worse than the first, and a timely reminder why I have avoided taking my car to them for so many years. After receiving an inflated quote for the service with all the "extra's" exceeding 3 thousand dollars on a different vehicle this time, which is a Hyundai I am not going to bother to use the rest of the voucher and I will return to my usual mechanic. The blatant and aggressive upselling will mean I will avoid Automasters in future - I have given two stars because the quality of the workmanship appears satisfactory and the car was ready on time, it's the misleading and aggressive sales tactics that have deterred me from this company for life.

Great communication & service. Awesome staff. Would well recommend this company. From the process of starting my claim till the finish of installation of my windscreen ,it was just seamless. Many Thanks. Steve Klink

Absolutely stand out service from my first enquiry to the finished install, highly recommend, thanks

I was lucky that I found this link of Westside Auto Wholesale, which I am thankful because I found the right car for us. I had a very good experience… Read more

from the Finance Manager (Adrian Boston) which he took care of our budgeted budgets. I had an awsome experience also with the sales person (Hardeep Thind) which he really took the best care for us. And thumbs up also to the after sales auto service when we brought the car back for tints and some to be fixed. Thank you so much!… ❤️ Westside Auto Service, Bentley

Very Disappointing Experience at Capital S.M.A.R.T Repairs Silverwater Extremely disappointed with the repair quality and service. My 2023 car spent… Read more

three weeks in the workshop, yet I collected it with multiple issues including paint damage, missing clips and screws, damaged trim, scuff marks, dirt inside the car and an incorrectly aligned bumper.

I had to return 10+ times over six months to have problems addressed, and I still have an unresolved automotive glue drip on the side of my car.

The lack of attention to detail and quality control was very frustrating. Thoroughly inspect your vehicle before accepting it back—don't assume everything has been checked properly.

Luke and his team were professional from start to finish. Had to go with his quote that was almost $700 cheaper than one from a company I'd happily… Read more

dealt with only 6 months ago! Must say that women having work done on their cars can find we get treated a little condescendingly at times, but not here. I was dealt with respectfully and shared a joke or two while the job was being done. Very happy camper...or will be soon thanks to Five Star!

Very happy with my ceramic tinting on my MG. Jason did a great job. He was friendly and very informative. I shopped around and this was the cheapest. It was done in a couple of hours at Charmhaven. Highly recommend Tint Ur Ride. Thanks Jason

Peakhurst good news we can sort that no drama. Next day Suzuki happy no more vibration. Staff helpful good listeners got a sense of humour. Shop looked real busy. Reviews all super. I was pleased. Not greedy. Smart professional operation. Oh and the female staff enjoy a bunger outside shop on Friday after work. Go ladies.

After a disappointing experience at another tinting business where I was faced with having to get my car’s window tinting replaced under warranty for… Read more

a second time due to poor workmanship, a friend recommended that I go and talk to Kelly at Tint-A-Car in Osborne Park – and am I glad that I did! Kelly not only welcomes you into her office like an old friend but takes customer service to a whole new level in educating you about what to expect from your tint and assisting you with your choice.

Apart from finding contaminants yet again under my existing film applied by the other business, I had also realised after nearly having an accident on the freeway at night that the film was too dark to allow clear night-time visibility. Kelly was immediately concerned about the safety issue, to the extent of offering me a time slot the following day in what was obviously her busy week to have the tint removed and replaced, as well as spending a long time discussing what had happened and the different options for a lighter (and safer) replacement film. So I felt very confident that I had come to the right place.

When I dropped my car off the following week to have the tinting job done, Kelly once again went the extra mile to ensure that I would be happy with the tint VLT level, to the extent of asking Max to actually apply offcuts of two different films to one of my car’s windows so that I could see the difference in VLT before application. She also suggested that I sit in her own car so that I could see how a different tint level looked in real life. All this took quite a long time, but I was never made to feel as if I was a nuisance. Kelly is so incredibly patient and determined to do the right thing by her customer to ensure their complete satisfaction with the finished job, regardless of how long it takes.

My new Spectre ceramic tint (45 VLT all round) is perfect. Visibility when driving at night presents no problem at all now and my car looks great. Additionally, I was treated like royalty despite this not being a huge amount of money spent, and even given a voucher for a free coffee at the lovely Micrology coffee shop up the road while I waited. All up, this was a wonderful experience. I will be recommending Tint-A-Car Osborne Park and particularly Kelly to everyone I know requiring car window tinting.

Great service and advice by the team- much appreciated - thank you. I’ll definitely recommend you to others and use you again.

Good year auto Care Glendale Would not recommend them at all Had pink slip done and everything was fine except they told me I needed x2 tyre which… Read more

ended up being only one tyre. Took my car to another tyre place and a mechanic which both told me the tyre was fine and they were trying to get a sale on tyres

I also spoken to service New South Wales manager at warners Bay she had told me it is a legal document and she could not change it. Only could you tie could change the outcome? But in her opinion the tire looked fine and should’ve been passed for the pink slip so three independent people have come to the outcome. The tire should have pass the pink slip

Don’t waste your time going there

Browns Plains and the task was completed ahead of the advised 2 hours. The alignment proved to be spot on at 50kph on the way home. Job well done, thoroughly recommend these guys.

I would recommend this business. They are prompt and professional.
