"Extremely bad customer service"

We bought the car from Car store Coventry on 7th April 23 and the rear light cluster was damaged when we took it. We went home and noticed it and since it was late in the evening and the concerned sales person Mr. Taher Shabbir said he will be on leave so we did not call him. We did drop him email to which he said he will look in to it. When we went on 15th Apr 23, he just did not do anything about this and told us at the last minute that we should speak to his manager. His manager Ms. Melissa Lynch said she will look into it, dropped an email to me saying that she will respond in 2-3 days. So far not even responded despite sending 2 reminders. Extremely disappointed with car store at Coventry. Do they really care ??

I don’t believe they carry out a 123 service. When I went to collect the car the battery was flat and the drivers door didn’t lock/unlock properly. I should have got my money back there and then. They replaced battery and eventually replaced the lock but the cover fell off on the way home leaving the lock exposed to the elements. The rear windscreen doesn’t defrost properly and the oil service light keeps coming on. We are months down the line and it is clear they don’t care. They’ve got my money and they’re not interested. I’d never buy off them again. If I could give them zero stars I would

Spent £10000 on a car I need to be reliable. NOT SO! endless chasing, retelling my story over and over. Apparently collecting the car but don't show, now without transport until who knows when. Disappointed doesn't begin to cover it!

"APPALLING CUSTOMER SERVICE"

Resolving issues

The sales people are very amiable, and keen to sell you a vehicle. They will also promote their extended guarantee. Nothing is too much trouble, until there is a fault with the vehicle. Then the problems start. They are not interested in trying to build customer service, they have your money, that's all they are interested in. It takes weeks to get them to look at the car if there is a problem and then try and charge you by claiming the repairs are not covered by the guarantee. Constantly had to chase them to get any response. Once there is a problem with the car, that's when the real Carstore appears, you will have nothing but hassle trying to get it resolved. I would not recommend using this company under any circumstances, KEEP CLEAR. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED

Never reply to emails, have to be chased incessantly for call backs, replies etc. either to do with delivery or repairs. Customer service is woeful. Avoid.

"Absolutely shocking "

Absolutely shocking. Don't go anywhere near there. If you have a problem prepare to be upset and let down at every turn. Purchased a car, within 30 minutes and less than 10 miles the car we purchased started to fail. The tank was empty so we filled it up. On leaving the petrol station the motor engine warning light came on and the came was juddering. Put car into neutral and it began to rev itself uncontrollably. Wouldn't stop until engine turned off, smoke bellowing out the exhaust. On restarting the vehicle it once again revved itself uncontrollably. Car left for 10 minutes. Then restarted again, smoke still bellowing out the exhaust but revs stopped meaning we could drive to safety. The next morning called carstore explained the situation and asked to return the car for a refund. They suggested to drive it to their store which we reluctantly did (we did not want a reoccurance). They had no concern for our safety but rather to fix the car and send us on our way. No wife was due to drive it down the motorway to work (let's not think what may have happened). We asked for a full refund, including the £85 of diesel we put into the car. They agreed to refund the cost of the car but not until we returned the new V5c log book. Had to wait 4 days for this to arrive. So glad it was not 2 weeks. We asked for use of a car in the meantime, no was the answer. They would also not reimburse the £85 fuel in the car. No concern for our safety, situation or predicament. Just that they had their documents and then would return money. We paid in cash for the total amount of the car, including after care and servicing but received nothing from them in terms of service or care. I would steer well away from car store. Many people probably have no issues with their car and so car store seem to do a great job but should you encounter any trouble with your new motor you will be left to fend for yourself.

We were put in contact with one of there sale staff. And it turned out to be a salesman called Pantelis. What a lovely guy he was. He made the process so easy we bought the car.
