Three weeks ago, my compressor in my Acura stopped... - Snetteko
Three weeks ago, my compressor in my Acura stopped working. I called at least 5 service centers before going to Perro's. All the other service centers where too busy to get my car in at 2 o clock on a Thursday afternoon, but Perro's said they would. From the start, I had a great experience. The price for diagnosing the problem was 40 dollars less than all other competitors. Being a woman in my 20's, I have NO CLUE about anything having to do with cars, but Johnny actually showed me the process of diagnosing the vehicle. Unfortunate for me, the compressor has siezed, and I immediately know this was going to be an expensive job. I immediately got on my Blackberry to find out the price of a used compressor, which was about 325.00- But Perro's was actually able to get me one for 225.00. I was told the because the compressor was a used part, it would not be warrantied by the company it was being purchased from, but I still agreed and I moved forward with getting my car repaired.
About 2 weeks later, I began experiencing 'hot spots' on the AC and my car began making funny noises. I took it back to Perro’s and I was told to bring it back in another day when I had more time. By the time I got back into the shop, my AC was completely out, and my car was making horrible noises. I left my car there, only to find out a few hours later that my AC Compressor had literally blown up. At this point I was horrified, and expected to hear the worst- that I would have to buy a whole new one... but instead, Perro's made the situation right actually BOUGHT A NEW COMPRESSOR OUT OF POCKET, and has assisted me by issuing me a credit so I will come back. Being a woman, it can be intimidating going into a mechanical shop, and having to worry that I might be taken advantage of, but at Perro's not only was I shown exactly what was going to happen to my car, but I was treated fairly and honestly. I have to say that throughout this process not only did i receive superb customer service, but I learned a bit about cars! Perro's did everything to make the situation right- although they didn't have to, because I WAS TOLD about the part not being warranties- BUT they ended up taking care of everything. I will definetly recommend Perro’s again and again, and specially to my clueless girlfriends who have no clue about cars (like myself)
THANKS!!!
