    Appliance Repair

    Current Alerts For This Business

    Pattern of Complaint:
    Consumer complaints allege that after calling the company to inspect their appliances, the company either incorrectly diagnosed the issue and/or recommended unnecessary repairs. Most consumers also allege the company recommends a replacement of the entire unit but later discover, by way of a second opinion, that an entire replacement is not necessary. Many consumers also allege that the company’s technicians are not knowledgeable, do not explain charges and do not follow up after initial service call. Company responses have indicated that they feel they offer a long term repair solution which is why they recommend a full replacement in the instances they do, rather than a short term solution which only fixes the problem temporarily. They also indicate that in cases where they acknowledge a misdiagnosis by their technician, the consumer has been refunded.
