I ended up having some minor cosmetic work done to my vehicle here because my normal mechanic was swamped. I've heard nothing but bad things and warnings advising never to take your vehicle to Gwatney for anything. About a year ago my mother took her truck to Gwatney to have some engine work done, only to have our current mechanic notice that they literally didn't do anything. On top of that they charged her almost 700.00. When she comfronted them with proof they acted like it was a small mistake and offered to actually go in and do the work. She didn't feel comfortable leaving her vehicle and just took her refund.
Unfortunately I thought with time this may have changed. When I spoke to the gentlemen at the collision center about doing the work on my vehicle he quoted me a price range and stated it wouldn't be any more than the higher price. When I returned topick up vehicle, the young lady at the desk stated it would be almost 50.00 more than what I was told. I told her of the original price I was quoted and she stated she would go and talk to him. She walked 10 steps away and stood in his door way speaking with him about the price of the minor work. He never came out of his office. She then returned and rudely advised that I could pay it that day, or she could stick my car in a bay until I returned with the rest.
These situtions took place at both Gwatney establishments in Jacksonville, AR. My advice is don't take your vehicle to these facilities. People work to hard for there money to be given dishonest service, and swindled for it.
Lastly, the invoice the lady privided me literally had space that said "BS" charge on it. Go figure.
