Depends on who you talk to. There are no shortages of negative reports and stories on the net about people who have been treated unfairly at a shop. But, there are countless amounts of outstanding shops in the industry.
The difficulty in repairing cars is that the causes are not always clear cut. Unfortunately, it can take time to correctly find a particular problem, and it can be more than just one part causing an issue. For instance, most electrical problems are caused by many parts along the same wiring route. You can’t find out for sure until you replace each part as you go along.
The majority of time, a person who feels that they were ripped off was probably not contacted properly by the shop. It comes down to a lack of communication, and this is where problems occur. Most shops are now aware that word of mouth can either build their business or destroy it.
Overall this is why we have started www.Ratemyrepairshop.com. Here you are able to rate your auto shop. Now we will be able to screen out the good from the bad. With your help, other people will be able to find out which shops are the best around.
Im totally unhappy with the Yamaha (I have a car too but bikes are more economical) dealership where im forced to take my bike for checkups…everytime I go in the thing comes out worse…and its new! and its the dealership!!!
It’s definetly a pain when you are forced to go to the same shop/dealership that gives you bad service everytime. This is why we started the site. It is so that you can make an informed decision before you buy. I hope that there are sites out there that will give you the ability to rate your Yamaha dealer.
Actually Ducker, feel free to add your Yamaha dealer to our site and leave your review. Here is a link to help you out http://ratemyrepairshop.com/rmrs/RepairShops.aspx?st=Colorado%20(CO). You will find the “Add A Shop” button at the bottom of the page.
