Still awaiting contact…

Vehicle purchased 2 years ago with approx 35,000 miles on the clock.
The coolant was not topped up.
The 1st MOT failed as the mechanic said a fan was not working properly, and the engine was on the verge of blowing up. This cost £800 to repair.
The car broke down two weeks ago on the first day of a holiday in Cornwall.
We called pine lodge, who asked to be informed of the issue once know. This turned out to be the dual mass flywheel.
We asked for options regarding potentially towing the vehicle home, and also a valuation for them potentially taking the car back.
Despite being assured of options being available, and that they would assist us where possible, and specifically being told they would send details of a tow company, we have not received any call back or further contact.
We have now fully resolved this ourselves, and would not recommend pine lodge at all due to their sheer lack of after care.
Instead of guarded comments about options, and leaving us without contact, a simple no would have sufficed if they were not in a position to help.
At the time of writing, the vehicle has done around 55,000 miles.

Reply from Pinelodgecars

Thanks for the review , I’m not sure 1 star would be correct though. However it’s your opinion and I thankyou for your honesty in it. If someone in the office hasn’t called you back I’m very sorry about that but the car would have left pine lodge cars in complete working order and unfortunately cars are machines and sometimes they have items that fail at the worst of times I.e. on holiday etc… but 2 years later and 20k in mileage isn’t a pine lodge cars issue and is just bad luck I think and a one star for possibly not calling you back even though you can’t be sure we did try and get in touch is a bit harsh.

Superb from the outset 👌

Wow, what great customer service! Felt cared for as a customer from the first contact right up to when we collected the car. Nothing was too much, Nick and Tom had great communication. Vehicle was picked up with a new service, full 12 months MOT and valet. 100% recommend, First class 👌

Best car purchase experience ever!!

From the extremely quick and easy process of going through checks via the website (really efficient proces btw) , to the speedy process of having a test drive and the complimentary car wash before the purchase with tax was completed, this was the best experience buying a car I've ever had. Nick assisted us through the process despite the very busy morning. He made himself available for queries and gave us every bit of info we needed. The cars have been really well taken care of, I was well informed, given as much time as possible to decide, supported through the entire process and haven't ever been so happy to leave a review. Faultless service, shame that I can't give more than 5/5.

I had the best car buying experience at Pine Lodge. After loosing faith in cars and dealerships I came to Pine Lodge following a family recommendation. I test drove a couple of cars and nothing was too much trouble. I worked with Nick to find my dream car and safe to say I had a year driving me new dream car away. Nick went above and beyond to help me in any way he could. All the lads are friendly and down to earth and put you first. I will never look else where for a car and I will only ever recommend Pine Lodge to anyone looking for a car! I can’t thank Nick and the team at Pine Lodge enough for what they did for me! Thanks Guys!!

Fab Service!

After searching far and wide and visiting several car sales companies we found Pinelodge Cars which was by far the best! They had a great range of cars and a great approach to sales, helping customers with good advice and no pressure!! When we eventually made a decision, Nick arranged for the car to be ready for collection very quickly. We are delighted with our purchase and the excellent customer service we received from Pinelodge Cars. Thanks for your help Nick!

Excellent garage, definitely use again

We purchased a car for our 26 year old son. When it was delivered there was a faulty electrical boot lock. We contacted Josh. He had the car picked up and returned to us with a new lock fitted. He also offered a curtsey car , which was appreciated but we never accepted. I would highly recommend this garage and definitely use again.

Recently bought a car from Nick

Recently bought a car from Nick, what a great experience. Nothing was too much trouble, a really easy process from viewing the car to driving away. I highly recommend Pine Lodge Cars and their friendly efficient team.

Lovely sales team

I must say our car sale experience with pinelodge has been amazing, from the moment we walked through the door we were looked after by josh, he was such a friendly salesman, that made us feel at ease and certainly was not pushing sales on to us which was nice! They leave you to view the car alone and offer test drives out. Josh was very paitent with me after many, many questions I had to ask and nothing was too much mither,, the day we picked the car up went nice and smooth, nothing was too much to ask and I feel we were looked after well. Thank you josh and team. Amazing laid back, friendly garage. We hope to get many years out of our new vehicle. Thanks josh

I recently purchased a car from from PIne Lodge cars and the experience was fabulous. It was so easy to deal with Nick and his team from the initial enquiry to delivery of the vehicle. Very professional and efficient. My daughter is thrilled with her new car. I would definitely recommend this company and use them again in the future.

Recommended.

Very good customer service and once I was happy with the car the next day we arranged everything very efficiently, the full transaction was fast and easy.

Will be taking the car back for a MOT and service at this location in the future, recommend this company.

I've just sold a car to these people

I've just sold a car to these people, a pleasure to deal with Malcom on the phone, talking, like human beings used to. Did what he said, paid a small deposit which helped to alleviate the 'Will they turn up' feeling. Had a call this morning from the driver, as arranged, driver arrived, made sure I had the money in my account beofre making any attempt to leave.
