“DREADFUL customer service I can not believe how disorganised this company is! I have a slow puncture. i booked to get it fixed. booked it for 1030, easy enough. Turn up to the garage only to be told that they had double booked and there was nothing they could do - sending me away to drive on my flat tyre. They do not care about their customers and did absolutely nothing to even help resolve the issue.”

“My fiancé took my car in for an alignment check 14 days ago. It was off so he agreed for them to fix it. Today I failed my MOT due to both front track rod ends and ball joints being extremely loose with excessive play. The alignment had never been done which has caused the ball joints to be damaged. There was a slight vibration in the front end on the drivers side, that was the whole reason for the alignment. The so called “well trained staff” should have never left them loose. They told my fiancé to get new rotators and brake pads to fix the issue. Both of which are only about 6 months old. Kwik fit gave him the “Yankee Treatment” since he is an American. Which means they did nothing and still charged him. Sure enough the ball joints were replaced and tracking rods tightened and the vibration is gone. Everyone who worked in the garage where I had my MOT confirmed the alignment had never been done. I do not recommend Kwik fit. In fact, avoid them at any cost!”

“Went to the Tynemouth branch in Tyne & Wear for four tyres which they fitted and then told me they couldn't align the wheels for another 2/3 weeks as they didn't have time. They didn't tell me that before they fit the tyres. having paid £623:16p. Stay clear of this place. They got one star and aren't worth that. They made me see red and not stars.”

“David and Stevie at Forte Street Ayr were excellent . Stevie takes a little more time as he is still learning his trade, so don’t be so quick to complain. He did a grand job . David and Stevie were helpful , welcoming and did an amazing job . 10 *********** to you both and the service you provided.”

“The staff at the Brighouse branch have been extremely helpful and supportive in repairing my tyre today. I can't thank them, especially Steve, enough. Highly recommended.”

“I usually go to the Stockton on tees garage and normally receive great service. This time I booked in to have a slow puncture looked at. I arrived 10 am and car taken straight away. After an hour they found the cause of the problem. No complaints here as an earlier independent garage totally missed it. After trying to do a repair I was told I would need a new tyre. Okay and I was still happy but when the click reached two hours I looked outside to see four staff trying to bump start my car. I only took it in for a puncture. When I approached staff they refused to speak and I guessed the ignition had been left on for my 2+ hour wait. A long time for a puncture repair and a drained battery. I’ll still use Kwikfit sometimes but I’ll go to another branch.”

“I went to Kwik Fit Heanor Saturday for an oil change. Prepaid a day before. Arrived at 5min before booking time, 3h later they haven't looked at the car yet, 4h after arrival they gave the car back with more errors and warnigs than it came. Asked them to sort the "oil pressure low - stop safely" red warning they created in shop, they refused. I insisted and told them they fitted a part incorrectly and need to check. Service kid said "...but redlight is still on" tiller replied shouting his lungs out "I don't give a f... just send them away". I insisted still he refused to check their work. Next week I called KF in Lichfield where I was, told them the oil filter was the issue they refused to see me - "go back where you came from and sort it there, we're fully booked". Called Slowgit Heanor, told them the diagnosys, asked them to correct it he insisted it's not their and I need to do a service instead. Finally, I went to a 3rd party and determined Slowgit has fitted the oil filter incorrectly (forced it in, broke it/bent it so contact was imperfect). They knowingly endangered my and my kid's life because they could not be bothered to get another 10 pound oil filter they damaged during fitting. After 6 hours in shop for an oil change and a life threatening experience I got the money back, no apology.”

“The Manager and staff at Kwik Fit Coatbridge provided me with an excellent standard of customer service. Nothing was too much trouble, despite their obvious hectic workload. Wouldn’t hesitate to use them again”

“We booked an MOT for 10 days before expiry. The day before, Kwikfit phoned to say they had to cancel. The next available date was 2 days after expiry of the MOT. We couldn't find another convenient MOT station and so confirmed the new booking with Kwikfit with the understanding that we would not be able to use the vehicle for two days because the MOT was expired. The evening before the date of the second booking, we again received a phone call from Kwikfit cancelling the booking. The next availability was then another 8 days away!!! TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE”

“Wow - I don't often leave reviews but for the service I've received today I felt I had to! Following a puncture I discovered I had lost my wheel locking nut key. I took it to Kuik Fit in Otley and explained the situation to the manager (Mr. Taiylor Marr) who was polite, professional, respectful and very competent. I left the vehicle and within a relatively short period of time he phoned to tell me the car was ready. I was so impressed that what to me seemed a major problem had been resolved so quickly - and on a Sunday! But the most impressive aspect of this experience was the attitude and demeanour of Mr. Marr - he is a credit to your organisation!! Thank you.”

“Finding non-existent faults - trying to up sell. I took my car in to the Bristol Kwik Fit (in Bedminster) to have the two front tyres replaced. When I came to collect the car they said they had found an issue with the front coil spring, "part of it was missing" and that if you looked closely at the car you could see it was lopsided (I couldn't). Bizarrely they said it was still okay to drive but recommended I booked in with them soon to get it replaced. They quoted me £270 and gave me a print out of the quote, so I have a record of the work they were claiming needed doing and charging for. When I got home I looked up broken coil springs and advice online was if there is any issue you should NOT drive the car and get it replaced immediately. I took it to my local garage, they had a look and said the front coil spring is fine, there is no break and the car isn't lopsided at all. Completely fraudulent attempt to get unnecessary work done. I will avoid Kwik Fit like the plague now. I have reported in to the Head Office but not received anything back.”

“Non show and no refund Really disappointing. We’ve used them twice for their home tyre services. Both times they’ve let us down. The first being that they didn’t have the tyre we ordered promised a refund and never gave it. The most recent being where we confirmed an appointment, had text messages in the morning as confirmation, took a half day off and they never showed. We called and the team simply said they ran out of time, understandable if there had been some form of communication to let us know. We’ve asked for a refund now. I’d us anyone else for their services.”

“Had a nail in my tire so booked it into Kwik-fit Caterham where they plugged it. Haven’t had one before but the chap explained how it worked and why it looked raised. Really helpful guys and great service. They get a lot of bad reviews but we’ve always found them very helpful.”
