Spencer was extremely helpful and understanding. Wasn’t 10% sure in the issue with my car and he explained what he would do to find it and explain what the issues were when he found them

I did complete this earlier.
No problem however, Spencer was punctual, courteous and efficient. He diagnosed the issue after a thorough investigation and instigated the repair, maintaining regular contact with me as the assessment progressed.
I was extremely happy with his performance and pleased with my decision to use ClickMechanics.
I shall certainly recommend your company to any friends and colleagues requiring auto work in the future.

BUYER BEWARE - IF SOMETHING SEEMS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE THEN IT USUALLY IS

- Replacement brakes and pads needed as the warning light came on and my garage couldn't fit me in for a few weeks
- I had a number of trips coming up and needed to have them replaced and was attracted by Click Mechanics advertising
- I managed to find a mechanic who could come 2 days later and was initially over the moon
- On reflection maybe his immediate availability was too good to be true?!
- I had the work done and clearly it was...
- The final price higher than quoted and the mechanic claimed he hardly made any money from the job
- And the replacement discs and pads failed after 6 months
- When I asked the mechanic about the warranty by text he swerved the question and suggested it might by down to the age of the car and that it could be down to other problems
- There was no mention of the 12 month warranty or offer to inspect the vehicle (I have a copy of the text message if anyone would like to see it)
- I subsequently discovered that Click Mechanic offer a 12 months warranty
- And that OEM parts must be used by the mechanic
- When the mechanic went silent I escalated the issue with Click Mechanic and they told me it was the mechanics responsibility to resolve matters
- When I asked for proof of OEM parts being used, as it's odd that OEM parts would fail after 6 months (my previous 2 sets lasted over 4 years per set) the mechanic couldn't provide an electronic receipt
- Weirdly Click Mechanic were okay with this and said it was my responsibility to read the T&C's and suggested to the mechanic that he should make customers aware in the future
- So I am now £410 down and have wasted many hours trying to resolve this shocking state of affairs
- Clearly if it seems too good to be true then it usually is

SO MAKE SURE YOU READ THE SMALL PRINT AND IGNORE THE 12 MONTH WARRANTY AS IT APPEARS TO BE NO MORE THAN A MARKETING GIMMICK - OR SOME MIGHT SAY A SCAM.

Reply from Spencer:

Hello Guy I offered to come and inspect the vehicle under warranty and you declined as you wanted the mot inspector to check them, the brakes was OEM as proven in the resolution centre with the full invoice as requested. Warped discs will be caused by excessive heat, especially to warp the OEM discs that was fitted. When I asked you to provide an invoice for the work done to show there wasn’t another failure within the braking such as a binding calliper which would cause warping you refused. I also advised that the lower arm bushes may have split which in fact was also correct as they was advised a few days later on the mot. Thank you. Read more

Spencer did a pre-purchase inspection for me and I was really impressed. He was punctual, did a thorough job and communicated really well with his report and phone calls. The company I was buying from were very impressed as well.
A top job and it gave me lots of confidence in the purchase - thank you.
