Getting your car serviced or repaired can be a stressful experience if you’re not sure of what garage to trust. It’s easy to opt for the main dealer but that’s expensive and not really the best choice if you have an older vehicle. We’ve also all heard stories of the back street garage rip off. Nobody wants to be played for a fool. So what to do?
Have you considered a specialist? There are reliable garages out there beyond the main dealer that, in some case, offer a better service than the main dealer. In such a fickle world reputation is all, especially online. In fact that’s the best place to start, reviews. When considering a service or repair for your vehicle you will want to look local and you will want a business with lot of great reviews.
A specialist garage, as the name suggests, has a much deeper understanding of vehicles, how they work, what symptoms suggest a particular problem, experience in carrying out highly complex repairs or servicing plus access to manufacturer support. The modern car is a highly sophisticated machine with a complicated electronic system in control and monitoring the proper functioning of a vehicle. Overall a higher level of workmanship and service is required to properly service and repair these sometimes obscure technologies.
Starting as a small family run business servicing the North Manchester area and Manchester city centre VAG Specialists Volksmaster have expanded over the years to to now include 4 branches. The latest addition opened for car servicing in Heywood, Rochdale in September 2021. Over the years, the company has built an excellent reputation for quality, reliability and none premium prices which is backed by many years of experience, excellent service and unrivalled customer care. Volksmaster is still very much a family run business.
Though they specialise in VAG group and German cars their service centres are more than capable of servicing vehicles from all manufacturers. No matter the brand, model, or age of your car, customers will get the same quality service.
A Premium Car Service Without The Premium Price
Volksmaster are up to date with the latest servicing technologies and equipment. Their specialist mechanics are trained by the manufacturers and benefit from full support from the manufacturer. Their technicians are always provided training on the latest technologies directly by the manufacturer. There is no second guessing, no trial and error when it comes to your vehicle. You will always get an accurate diagnosis, excellent service, the best repairs and most importantly a premium customer service.
A common misconception that many have, is that, the vehicle warranty will be voided if servicing is NOT undertaken by the main dealer. This is not so, this is no longer the case and this change was instigated a few years ago. Your vehicle warranty remains intact even if the vehicle is not serviced by the main dealer. However in most cases there is a stipulation that genuine manufacturer parts must be used to maintain that warranty.
Volksmaster guarantee, that when you get your car serviced with them it will not effect your warranty and that’s a promise. They will also update your service history record and your digital service records, if applicable. As for quality, Volksmaster is absolutely on par with all Main Dealer service skills.
With the opening of the new Heywood, Rochdale service centre, it’s easier for resident in Heywood, Rochdale, Bury, Middleton, Milnrow and the surrounding areas to get a premium vehicle service at a none premium price.
Smart Service Options
Car servicing work is reasonably priced and the costs for common repairs can be found upfront as they are available on the Volksmaster website. Costs are lower then the main dealer without any compromise in quality, service or customer care.
If your car is out of warranty, you will have the option to choose between the service schedule specified by the manufacturer in your owner’s manual or they can offer you a customised schedule, based on their experience in servicing and your model of vehicle. Both schedules will work equally well to ensure your car remains in excellent condition.
If you have an older vehicle, you have the option to choose between manufacturer spares or slightly lower-cost items that are still high-quality equivalent spares. Either way, you do not have to worry about any degradation in performance, life, safety or the resale value of your car.
While servicing your vehicle, as stated earlier if they run into an issue or a needed repair, they will get in touch with you giving you all the details as well as the cost and time involved in carrying out the work. Additional work will only be performed with your consent. There is also absolutely no obligation to have the work done, you can say no. At Volksmaster, there are never any surprises in the bill.
Ultimately, when you have your vehicle serviced or repaired you want to be confident that the work has been undertaken properly and professionally and that the technicians know what they’re doing and you’re not in for a nasty surprise a few weeks later. Piece of mind is part of the Volksmaster ethos.
A Little Extra Convenience And A Bonus
It’s possible to wait whilst your vehicle is serviced, there is a comfortable waiting area where you can relax while they take care of your car. In general, most routine services can be completed while you wait. They are more than happy to meet you at the service centres but you do not have to visit them to get your car serviced.
As part of their commitment to customer service, Volksmaster also offer a Collect and Return service. You do not even need to visit the service centre yourself, a driver will collect your vehicle, service and/or repairs will take place, Volksmaster will contact you if there are recommendations or extra work may be required. Once complete your vehicle will be delivered back to your home or place of work.
Note, again no work is ever undertaken on a vehicle without first fully informing the owner of the recommendation or necessity and getting their full agreement for the technicians to undertake the work.
If you are worried about not being able to travel while your vehicle is undergoing work, there is a Courtesy Car service available to keep you on the road.
The service centres have a friendly service team that are happy to talk to customers and address any concerns or special requests they might have.
As a bonus, all vehicles are valeted and washed inside and out at no extra cost.
