Nearly 12 months without my car

Here I am again, writing a poor review for Vauxhall Toomey Basildon

My previous reviews seemed to of been removed.

Customer service as Toomey Vauxhall Basildon repairs … appalling, along with the manager who seem to ignore my emails, they have had my car for 10 months (bar 2 weeks in January when I paid my bill) they have it back as the part “fixed” wasn’t correct so had to order another. Here I am 7 months down the line still without my car. Finance is due to end in sept 2026 and no confirmation of proof they are chasing the part as they have told me a number of times. WHY the delay!!! You know I want to hand the car back to Stellantis I paid my bill and I can’t hand it back until road worthy. It is out of my hands. I need a call today

Hello Lisa,

Thanks for sharing your experience with us. We are very sorry for the ongoing delay and appreciate how frustrating it must be to have been without your vehicle for such a prolonged period.

We understand that the outstanding part is still awaited, and our team is continuing to chase the supplier regularly for an update.

A member of our team has spoken with you recently and has also emailed you to explain the process and the position regarding your vehicle and finance agreement should the repair extend beyond the final payment date.

We appreciate your patience while we continue to pursue this matter and will provide you with an update as soon as we receive further information from the supplier.

Kind regards, Vauxhall Toomey Basildon.

Diagnostics and repairs were done and my car was ready for pickup a lot quicker than I expected, Jaimie and Olivia (Toomey customer service staff) were absolutely great all through the experience; empathetic, supportive and regularly reached out to provide updates. I wish all motor garages operated in this fashion, because this was definitely a 5-star experience.

First time visitor....

First time I have taken my car here for a service, and both the car and I were very well treated! Sofia was very helpful when checking the car in, and when she checked it back out she went through all the points with me. Nice waiting area, and I really liked the screen showing progress for each vehicle. Free refreshments (even if the multiple recycling bins were a bit confusing, lol) was very welcome. Air con too, so perfect when waiting on a hot day....

Olivia

Olivia explained everything in a clear and professional manner. She dealt with the paperwork efficiently and quickly and explained that I would get a video of the inspection. She is a credit to the Hyundai team and really welcoming as you come into the showroom. She definitely deserves a gold star.

Excellent service

As a relatively new member of the team, Sarah was excellent, handled my booking extremely well considering that at the time, she was the only member of staff on, taking loads of calls and juggling lots of enquiries, she even raised an issue on my behalf relating to a possible paint manufacturing issue. Sarah is an asset to the MG Toomey Team ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Sarah was brilliant

Arrived very early for my appointment and was prepared for a wait but Sarah was fantastic. She arranged for my service to be carried out with no fuss and I did not have the anticipated long wait. Sarah was very professional and made sure I was kept informed. Thanks for a great service.
