Tyres and front breaks on a 2004 MGZR

From start to finish the customer service was fantastic, tyres sorted and an additional job, the front breaks sorted as well. Good value and good mechanics. A family busyness that came over as welcoming and honest. Well worth a visit.

Quoted for urgent jobs which don’t need doing

Had 3tyres changed few days ago here (ordered from etyres). Recieved a phone call 20min into the change from reception lady called Jade about some dangerous fault found during vehicle health check. I asked why those faults didn’t show during Mot (done 3,5months ago/ 450 miles done since then) she said they should have come up if mot done properly. Asked for written copy of faults so I can do my reserch. When collecting the car she wasn’t there so spoke to mechanic who I belive worked on the car and recieved a quote for nearly 700£. When I said I can’t afford it they offered the finance option. Came home worried as the issue was explained to me as serious and dangerous and urgent as I could loose control of the stiring wheel. As I drive with the children in the car usually I was angry with Mot place as they never adviced about the issues. So my partner took the car back to Mot garage and explained the situation and they took it seriously and rechecked everything and there is nothing wrong! After googling the issue warning signs I also realised I haven’t had and warning signs which should happen with faulty suspension arms. So dissapointed with F1 autocentre in warrington for cheating this way and trying to get money from me for something which doesn’t need doing and scaring me in the process. Please stay away from the place as they can’t be trusted.

Been a customer for 3 years or so and always had great service and prices from all the team and especially recent manager Sean. Called yesterday for mot booking and quoted £44,50 and when I asked for a special price as I had from Sean, was told he's gone and I don't know you so not giving you a special price. I walked away and upon checking today a website order for you is £41.99. Crazy pricing strategy!!!
I have gone back to ATS now and secured the MOT for under £40.
I'll not return to Formula one Warrington.

Purchased Two Tyres from Asda for my X3, I chose F1Autocentre because they were close by and open on Saturdays, I arrived in good time and handed my vehicle over, after approximately 45 Minutes the Fitter informed me that they were unable to fit the new Tyres owing to a problem with the existing valves.
I took it home and made arrangements to take it to ATS, unfortunately a couple of days later on my morning commute the steering wheel started to vibrate, I pulled over thinking I had a deflated tyre and was amazed to find that the near side wheels studs were loose, it appears that they were put on hand tight as off side was fine.

Fantastic service at Warrington branch

Fantastic service at Warrington branch. Great staff, brilliant customer service and great price - what more could you ask for.
Been to this branch twice in 2 weeks and Sean and the team have been fault less, went above and beyond on both occasions. Will definitely use again

Fantastic Service

Excellent communication and service from Sean from start to finish. I was looked after by Sean and Mason and the job to my tyre was completed earlier as requested. Overall professional, polite and respectful service. Thank you to you both for high standard of work - Sarah

Fantastic service from Mason today! Had a couple of tyres changed and also had a problem with another of my tyres. Mason looked into the problem and kept me informed all the way through and sorted it. The manager let me have it done for free. So honesty, integrity and kindness. Highly recommend.

Awful service and staff incompetence

Absolutely shocking service from this company today. Booked in to have tyres fitted to my new wheels today and was unable to fit them due not having the correct equipment. I specifically asked the questions when I booked in and I was assured they could fit them. Also the company wouldnt honour prices and the level of customer service received was awul
My tip is to avoid this company.
