FAQs
Do You Offer Warranties on Parts and Labor?
Absolutely, you receive warranties that cover both parts and labor. We outline warranty duration by component: most OEM and premium aftermarket parts include 24-36 months of coverage, while wear items may vary. Labor is usually covered for 12-24 months, matching parts as appropriate. We document transferability terms-the majority of coverage stay with the vehicle, not the owner, unless stated otherwise. You'll receive written coverage details with your invoice. Please ask us to provide your repair's precise terms before authorizing service.
Is It Possible to Wait On-Site During Service?
Indeed, you may generally wait on-site during your service, subject to shop policies and bay availability. We emphasize customer comfort with well-maintained facilities, wireless internet, and complimentary drinks. For quick services like basic repairs, inspections, and tire services, you'll usually wait 30-90 minutes. For extensive services or detailed diagnostics, we recommend leaving your vehicle to guarantee accuracy and safety. Please book in advance, inform us of any time constraints, and we'll verify wait options at booking and check-in to meet your scheduling needs.
Are Shuttle or Loaner Vehicles Available?
Indeed. Think about the convenience of having a ride while we service your vehicle. We offer shuttle service and customer pickup within a defined radius for most appointments. For longer repairs, you can request a loaner vehicle; make sure to reserve early as loaner vehicles are limited. Provide your license and insurance, arrive on time, and confirm duration. We'll manage vehicle exchanges to ensure your convenience throughout service.
