I thought the process took too long. Brian never got back to me. I had to do all the calling. I noticed a burning smell in the engine area after and assumed it was from the work but when i went to get an oil change about a week later they found large pieces of plastic stuck under the car from king collision and much of it was burned on one of the pipes. it still smells a bit after about 3-4 weeks of having my car back.
RESPONSE FROM King Collision Centers:
Ms. S is a valued repeat customer of King Collision Centers. It is disappointing to hear that she was not completely satisfied with her experience this time.
After reviewing her file, it appears that the repairs may have taken longer than expected due to an apparent 7 day delay, which was a result of waiting for parts to arrive. Once the parts arrived, King Collision Centers completed the repairs in a timely manner. The timing of when the vehicle was in for repairs collided with two holidays and a large snow storm, which resulted in the loss of production time. King Collision Centers may have missed an opportunity to call the customer with an update about midway through the repair. This oversight was a result of the short holiday weeks as well as the unscheduled snow storm, which forced King Collision Centers to close our facilities that day. King Collision Centers takes customer communications very serious and understands how important it is for our customers to be up to date on the progress of there vehicle. That's why at King Collision Centers, on top of calling our customers at certain repair stages with verbal updates, posts each day on there website a photo showing and explaining the department and step which the vehicle is currently in. We appreciate Ms. S pointing out this mistake we made and we are very sorry for letting her down. Letting us know how she feels about this communication error confirms how important communication is and this will certainly help King Collision Centers get better going forward.
Often during repairs, vehicles are covered with a plastic "collision wrap" to protect it from the elements. A "car cover" is also used while it is in our paint department. There must have been a portion of either one of those plastic covers which was unseen upon removal, which then melted to the exhaust pipe, causing the burning smell. Unfortunately, Ms. S. never notified King Collision Centers of the issue. If Ms. S is still not 100 satisfied with the repairs, she is urged to contact King Collision Centers ASAP so they can help. Ms. S was given a lifetime written warranty upon delivery of her vehicle, so all it will take is a phone call to arrange a convenient time for her to bring the vehicle to King Collision Centers to rectify any issues she may have. King Collision Centers is dedicated to earning Customers for life. We Promise You Will Be Satisfied.
