Overcharge

Went in last week for an MOT, car failed and needed a number of new parts fitted. I was quoted almost a £1000 in repairs which seemed severely overpriced to me. Took it to Kwikfit they checked it over and quoted me almost a third of the price £350 or so parts and fitting. Got the work done and mot passed no issues. The initial qoute from five star was honestly ridicoulous, they've obviously mugged off alot of people with their 'not fitting inferior parts' sales crap. Just be honest and fair to people instead of quoting silly prices. I'm sure I'll get the old, can't find you on the records response from them, but this is an honest review. Wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.

Hi Taz,

We are really sorry you didn't have a good experience with us. We did squeeze you in on the same day at short notice and do try to accommodate where we can. I am confused how the quote was so little from Kwikfit - please bare in mind we quoted you advisories and failures, so I am surprised if they will have done all 4 tyres, brakes, suspension etc for that amount.

Our priority is to keep you safe and well informed - we have to give you the full overall condition of your vehicle. Our prices do reflect our service, and the "not fitting inferior parts" is not something we just tell our customers, we do provide premium parts - we find by using premium parts the customer has peace of mind with extended warranty and we find, very little come backs. All of our customers have the choice whether they get the work done with us or take it somewhere else.

I'm really sorry you feel this way and if you wish to discuss further please feel free to contact us.

Kind regards,

Natalie

Couldn’t recommend enough - best around!!!!!

Dealing with Five Star Autocentre is always hassle free and a pleasure. I take my cars here, instead of the main dealership - as they are always truthful and honest about the requirements needed.

I couldn’t recommend the team enough, and will continue to use them over anyone else. They are genuine, and trustworthy throughout, I’ve never received a single fault when dealing with this garage.

AVOID!!!!

I normally never write reviews as I just let it go. They are very expensive for parts which are not genuine dealer parts. Got brake pads done and a part which holds the pads called pad shim kit was missing which I'm assuming they threw away so thanks guys. Would bot recommend to anyone and I have not been back since.
Let me reply
Clearly not bothered about the high price you
charged all I'm bothered about is why you threw the pad shims away ask your mechanic. I need them for my new pads but because if your stupidity it's going to cost £60 for new ones are you going to pay that?
Like I ssaid I've just changed my brake pads and the mechanic noticed now.
ARE YOU GOING TO PAY FOR THE BRAKE PAD SHIM KIT WHICH YOU THREW AWAY? WHAT'S YOUR EXCUSE FOR THAT?

Hello Mr Masood,

Thank you for your review. We last saw you and your vehicle November last year 2018. We are sorry you feel this way and are surprised you have not been in touch with us up till now nearly 12 months after to report any issues. We can guarantee all parts are genuine and/or OEM parts and carry a full warranty against any issues however small they may be. All workmanship undertaken also carries a full warranty. The issue here I believe is is the costing for which you were fully made aware of and agreed before any work carried out. Majority of our customers agree we provide a great level of service at a competitive price. If you would like to speak to us further please do not hesitate to contact us. Best of luck with your motoring.

Kind regards,
Natalie

First class service from start to end

First class service from start to end. Miss Kavanagh was professional throughout the duration keeping in regular contact with me every step of the way. As my car was only a few months old and I was worried what the repair would be like I needn’t have been as the workmanship was exceptional. I would appreciate if both Miss Kavanagh and the repair worker(s) were recognised for this in their next supervision session.
Kind regards
