Honolulu, HI
I punctured the sidewall of my tire from a pothole so I went to Lex Brodie's to get it fixed as a walk in. Initial customer service was great and they said it would take 2.5 hours for one tire so I guess it must have been busy. When no one called after the first 3 hours, I called to check if they had an updated estimated time and I'm assuming one of the shop guys picked up and said they were unable to find my car under my name. The employee then said they weren't sure if the car was even there. Oh, okay. After checking again, the employee said they needed my license plate to find my car, which I didn't have on hand since all my car documents are inside my car. At their shop. They eventually found it but said because "no one was assigned to the car", they hadn't started yet. Hardly an apology I guess, but okay. They said they needed an hour to finish the job and they did finish after another hour. It's probable that if I didn't follow up with them, they may have never even touched my vehicle today but the car got its tire replaced so I guess I got what I paid for. Came to pick up the car and there no mention of the car being in limbo or further explanation of what happened. I paid and got my keys, I came back to my car and the dirty (muddy) paper floor mat, used plastic steering wheel cover and used plastic sheet seat cover were still on inside the car. Normally I wouldn't care about small stuff like that but considering it's covid season, it made me feel a little different. Another employee saw me taking the plastics off and offered to throw it away for me so I appreciated that. So yeah, three stars for effort and customer service? If I can help it I'll try another shop next time.
