Complaint Review: Maaco

VERY unhappy customer but for the most part I've learned a very liable lesson.I will never under any circumstances do business with a company like this again.First let me say cheaper doesn't always mean a good thing and I for one have always been a firm believer in you get what you pay for and I should've known better.Read all fine prints and don't mind any promotions of a half off deal because in the end you will pay nowhere near half the listed price.I usually do all my business with a different maaco location and just recently learned about this location and decided to check them out.I was originally lured in by the 1/2 off sign in front of the establishment but from the very beginning the way I was greeted and the estimate I was quoted I had a funny feeling about this place and I should've followed my first mind.While the estimate was nowhere near 1/2 off it was about $200 cheaper than the location I normally go to so I decided to make an impatient decision and follow my gut because of the $200 difference.That's not a huge difference in price but I'm a current college student and I'm on a tight budget at the moment.I was told my car would be done in 4-5 days and they ended up having my car for over a week and I really couldn't understand why so long for what I was getting done..Eventually after two days of tjusticeling me at the end of the day to tell me hey your car won't be ready until tomorrow I grew tired and just told them forget the extra detail I wanted just let me pick up my car and be done with it..Had to go back and forth with the owner John before he finally agreed to subtract the stuff they didn't do from my total.I can't explain how I felt when I looked over my car and the paint job they did that took almost a week and a half.DISGUSTED doesn't do my true feelings the right amout of justice.I LOVE cars and particularly the one I own and I was heartbroken at what this company did to my car.I'm currently in school for auto tech and I'm a longtime carclub member so needless to say I'm pretty passionate about cars and their looks.The paintjob wasn't even the worse part the worst part of this whole ordeal that has me extremely upset is the fact that they damaged my brand new aftermarket headlights that I had installed two weeks prior.That place is doing some shady business over there and I will never deal with them again.If you're reading this I ADVISE YOU to take heed to the bad reviews unlike me.
