Unprompted review
Unfortunately a disappointing experience two years in a row.
For the second year in a row now, I have left the garage with a problem that wasn't present when the car went in for its service and MOT.
I took my car to the Old Basford branch last week and, as part of my service, paid for an air con service. I was told on the Friday evening that they were having issues with their machine and would need to keep the car overnight to complete the work the following morning. I didn't mind this and received a call Saturday morning to say it was ready.
However, when I collected the car, I immediately noticed that the air conditioning was no longer working and was blowing warm air. I rang them as soon as they opened on Tuesday morning after bank holiday. They assured me that the air-con service had taken place, but said it was likely to be a pressure or compressor issue. They immediately offered to investigate this, but at a £90 diagnostic cost to myself, despite the air conditioning having been working perfectly when I dropped the car off.
This is particularly frustrating because their own service report states that the air conditioning was checked and was operational. Their description of the service also states that the system is put under vacuum to check for significant leaks before being recharged. I'm therefore struggling to understand how the system could have been recorded as operational following the service when it was not working at all immediately after I collected the car.
I am not saying that the garage necessarily caused the fault but I would expect them to investigate a problem that appeared immediately after work was carried out on the system before asking me to pay another £90 for a diagnostic.
This is particularly disappointing after being a customer for 10+ years, during which I have always spoken very highly of Lindleys and regularly recommended them on social media and Trustpilot. Unfortunately, this is now the second year in a row that I have experienced an issue immediately following work carried out on my car. Last year, it was brake shim scoring following replacement of the driver-side front lower suspension arm.
I'm not expecting Lindleys to prevent every possible mechanical failure, but I do expect them to take responsibility for investigating problems that appear immediately after work they've carried out, rather than immediately passing the cost of diagnosis back to the customer.

Hi,
Thank you for taking the time to speak with me this afternoon, and firstly, I’m sorry for the frustration this has caused, particularly after you’ve been a customer of Lindleys for so many years.
As discussed, asking you to pay a further £90 diagnostic charge to investigate an air conditioning issue that became apparent immediately after the work carried out was a poor judgement call on our part. Regardless of what ultimately caused the fault, we should have offered to investigate the issue first given the circumstances.
We’ve now arranged for your vehicle to come back into one of our branches, where we’ll investigate and rectify the issue at no cost to you.
I’m also looking into what happened internally, including the work carried out and how the situation was handled afterwards, as this clearly wasn’t the level of service we expect to provide.
Thank you again for speaking with me and giving us the opportunity to put this right.
Kind regards,
Ryan

Saved the day
Phoned Monday to see if I could get car booked in. Problem with front end. No appointments till Thursday.
Explained I was on nights, so could I leave it with them. Answer yes.
They rang me Tuesday to tell me what the problem was.
And they get the parts Wednesday.
I phoned Wednesday to see if they could also do my mot. After the repair had been done.
As it was due 11 days later, a yes answer was great to hear… Wednesday afternoon they rang me.
Come and pick your car up…. All sorted and mot’d. Now that’s what I care customer care.
