Service failure

My windscreen was chipped on a trip . Called into a local Obrien's to see if it could be repaired but unfortunately the chip was slightly too big so replacement needed . Very helpful at the branch . then went through my insurance company ( YOUI ) who are excellent and process claim immediately and they then pass on claim to Obrien's who are their repairer .
Obrien's send me a form which i complete then Obrien's tell me that they cannot find the part as it is imported car ( Ford F150 2023 ) and therefore cannot help me !!
All cars are imported now !!!!
I call my Ford dealership and they give me the part number and quote to replace which YOUI approve straight away !! Took me 20 mins to organise !!
Do not use Obrien's seriously . Their system and call center is useless .

I had my windscreen replaced twice by the Bayswater branch. Twice it had cuts in the glass. I ended up going through my dealership and got it replaced, all good now. And my insurance reimbursed me for the dealership windscreen and recalibration. I wasn't going back a third time to O'briens. Cam the Manager from O'Brien's was very nice though.

Couldn't be any worse

I had a windscreen very poorly replaced at the Brendale location. In order to rectify it, they made me take it to Virginia.

After taking three hours for it to be done, it is a mess.

Part of the headlining has not been fitted underneath the seal. Rectifying this requires removing the windscreen again.

Not only that but they made a big mess of the sealant application and claimed that any less would make it leak. There is no reason the sealant should be outside of the seal. It should be wiped off cleanly.

Clearly they have no understanding of how the sealant is supposed to go and work.

There is also sealant on the wiper arms, seam cover and dripped on both doors.

On top of this, there are three scratches in the paint. Two of these are to the metal.

Apparently they never learnt not to use sharp implements as there is a tear in the seal too.

Making it easy

Got a chipped windscreen and before I could have it repaired the glass cracked. I have one of those cars with collision avoidance tech and replacing a windscreen means recalibrating the technology. I contacted a couple of replacement places but they didn't have the gear to recalibrate the camera so I called O'Brien in Lismore. Alex took my details and Damien made it easy! Dropped off the car, they gave me a lift back to town, then picked me up when the job was done. They couldn't have made it easier for me. I recommend them if you want the full service experience.

Exceptional Service at O'Brien's Arndell Park

I made a random decision today to go visit O’Brien AutoGlass in Arndell Park to fix a couple of car window issues I had been putting off. I was immediately greeted by a friendly technician who quickly checked one concern I thought was a crack in the driver’s window. It turned out to just be the tint, which was a huge relief.
I also had a problem with the passenger window being unstable when wound down. Despite a busy schedule, Jack took the time to properly inspect and fix the issue within 10 minutes, free of charge.
This level of honest, efficient, and genuinely caring service is rare. The team here are a real credit to the business. If you’re looking for friendly, professional and trustworthy service, I highly recommend them.

Over four months I've had a major crack in my windscreen only to be told twice within that time that the new screen has also cracked.Surely there's more than one screen on the cargo ship from Korea??.Will not recommend O'Brien's as a reliable service.Shop local.

Car window side glass

Disgusted with O'Brien's.
Booked an insurance claim for the replacement of a side window glass in my car, was told 2 weeks, the day before I receive a txt message to say sorry glass hasn't arrived. Call them to re book. Was previously told glass is in Melbourne I am in Brisbane. Now told another 2 weeks. Absolute joke of a company. No customer care or responsibility what so ever.

Excellent service at the Fyshwick ACT branch

From booking my car in to collecting after installation of a new windscreen, I can’t fault the service I received at the Fyshwick ACT branch. The booking process was easy, staff engaging, process efficient and the customer waiting area cool and well-equipped on a boiling summer’s day. A whole new windscreen fitted and calibrated within 75 minutes.

If I can give a negative star rating I would. Been booked in by RAC and was cancelled 3x. What a load of crap. Don't believe their 4.7 star review claims on their website. You can't even leave a review on their website. I wish their company ill will.

The cost of the work made our jaws drop! Over a thousand dollars to clean out the guttering and repair the downpipe. In the quote it mentions safety that are commonsense and only relevant to the employee. Way over the top!

Rock damaged windscreen

rock damaged windscreen and position means it needs to be replaced. Rang O'Briens...they took details and said they would get back. Three sales people later asked to speak to a supevisor..at least she was knowledgable. But all I got was excuses hail storms etc. Finally said they could do it in two weeks for $1500 but would give me a 20% discount. I am not willing to wait 2 weeks with no car, they have not sighted the damage and assure me I can still drive it, I replied no way, what if the cracks spread, what if it rains and I get water migration into my dashboard...answer was "oh that wont happen',,, as soon as they say that it will probably happen. I explained their advice could result in my insurance being compromised as well as the car's warranty. I will call other companies and avoid 1800 numbers as you just get sent to a third party who knows nothing about the industry and reads from a script, promises a prompt freply, then lets you down

O’Brien Rosebery replaced my windscreen…

O’Brien Rosebery replaced my windscreen but removed my genuine Toyota wipers without telling me, fitted aftermarket Bosch blades, and discarded my originals. Toyota later confirmed this causes warranty, safety, and servicing problems. I contacted O’Brien but they refused to resolve it, saying aftermarket was “better.” Very poor service and lack of accountability.

Impeccable Service

I found myself in an unfortunate situation when my windscreen was chipped while driving from Sydney to Melbourne, requiring repair before a roadworthy inspection the next day.

My partner organised a representative from O’Brien to call me during my drive. I was greeted by an amazing, friendly representative who put my mind at ease and organised an outlet for me to visit the following morning at 8 am.
Note: Considering the outlet was not in my suburb, he kindly discounted the rate to account for my travel costs.

The next morning, I visited Kris and his team at O’Brien – Clayton South. Immediately, Kris inspected the chip and provided welcoming advice, attending to the repair instantly.

What impeccable service by the team at O’Brien. Their genuine care, expertise, and willingness to go above and beyond made a stressful situation so much easier. If you want a seamless, friendly, and efficient experience, don’t hesitate to reach out to the team at O’Brien—they truly won’t disappoint.

Windscreen mess around

Booked in for a windscreen replacement over the phone 25.08.2025 for the work to be done 27.08.2025 and paid $100 deposit.
Was called 26.08.2025 and told that the glass wasn't due in until November! Then quoted on OEM glass which was over $1300 (more than double what I was quoted on Monday). Deposit will take 7 days to get back, no solutions from O'Brien, just a half-baked apology. Found an alternate supplier who can fit the windscreen on Thursday cheaper than the original quote. Will never consider O'Brien for vehicle glass again, only went with them for reputation and they let me down first go. One star is generous!

Worst experience ever!!!!

Wanted a reputable company to fix my second story window. I will never use O’Briens again!!
Rang was told it would cost $333, but giving you a discount. Then could give me a further discount if she rung the store who did my area. It was weird literally a second later she said I’ve now rung them and they’re giving you a further 20%. So your total on the day is $267. Ok I agreed. I said do I pay that amount on the day? Yes that’s it. She knew it was a wooden window, 2nd story needs fixing from outside. She said they’d have a ladder that can reach.
On the day one guy turns up, oh it’s a second story! Then reads the sheet first floor window. I can’t do that I need someone to hold the ladder. Calls others sorry can’t do today you’ll have to call and rebook.
The guy I called was extremely gruff on the phone. I said I’m very disappointed as had to take today off work. Rebooked
Two guys came out. First one can’t do as need scaffolding. Second guy comes. Yes we can just hold ladder. They proceed to have a full on argument in front of me. I said guys take it outside and when you can work it out come back. I don’t have time to listen to you arguing. Comes back needs scaffolding. I asked him to get them to please call me. No call. Email arrives with a quote for over $1700. The original discounted window now has gone up in price also. I email back. She basically calls me a liar and that it’s a quote not a price. I said no she told me that it was a total of $267 on the day can pay by credit card. When I say I’m going to write to head office she comes back with I’ll get head office to pull the conversation so we can hear exactly what was said. Worst customer service and experience. I would never use O’Briens ever again!
