I hate my job.
Mechanics at dealerships would probably hate me.
My job is to decide how high of a warranty rate to pay dealerships for their warranty work.
I think most mechanics are probably pretty darn good.
It seems to just be the way service departments are run that ruins it.
I just took my watch to the jeweler because it got moisture inside that wouldn't come out. They told me to walk around for 10 minutes. I come back and it's fixed at no charge.
I had a flat tire a couple months ago. Took it to the tire store down the street. Repaired it no charge; asked me to come see them when I'm ready to buy tires. Will I? You bet !!!
I never hear stories like this when it comes to auto repairs at dealerships.
They really need to work on the "service" part of the service centers.
They'd probably make more money in the long run, and have happier customers, and enjoy their jobs more.
Well, I"ve said before that I don't like bashing dealerships cause I would'nt want them bashing our independent shops,but where I work we try to be just like the two instances you just mentioned.Good oldfashioned service as fairly priced as posible.And as mentioned by someone else earlier....If you take a vehicle back 5 times for the same thing....Who is the dumb one here?
