The communication and ability to convey time expectations between the parker, co location and this location would make you believe this could only be a franchisee's difference. I've had one prior experience at this exact location that was agreeable, but 10/12/24 was not even close to compare. I set an appointment at 0730 (because if you offer early, I will go early ANTICIPATING you have staff and the correct staff to handle needs) and alloted about 4-5 hours for a rotate and balance, oil change, and tune up. When I was informed the tune up tech (who was not master, I was inquired what tune up services I would need as they couldn't provide all of them) wouldn't arrive until noon, I opted to just have the first two items completed and return later. My first check up was to inform me I needed tie rod replacement and other services that I did not have time for, I was informed that the service tech that could do it, would arrive at ~10. I was approached ~12 to be told one tie road was done and the other would be completed, then the alignment and drive. Around 130 I was told they still needed to complete the drive and I saw my car leave... If we're being gracious...1420. I did not leave the shop until about 1510. I will say in the morning I was offered a ride service, but i believed my time allowance and planning would be sufficient. At this juncture, I appreciate the services provided but my time was disrespected on a level that I cant/won't understand. If you are considering it, they can do a myriad of services but I would suggest 1. ANYTHING beyond an oil change is a 4hr+ time allotment 2. Anything major is likely a day allotment. 3. Let my learning moment save you something, have someone you know be your taxi driver, you'll see your car LATER that day, barring major stuff. I know my experience is not what everyone will encounter but having planned the way I did, there are some areas of slack to address. Staff is friendly enough.
