Using Tommeys Hyundai for the first…

Using Tommeys Hyundai for the first time, I took my car in for an annual service and was greeted by Olivia at the relevant desk.
Olivia was polite and courteous, checked my details and made corrections where errors occurred, updating my profile.
As I waited, Olivia kept me appraised of my car’s service so far and advised me of any concerns, such as replacement rear windscreen wiper smearing during operation.
Once completed, she collected me from the waiting area, escorted me back to the service desk and then confirmed the work carried and the costs.
We completed the transaction and the service experience was very good.
Olivia is a model advisor/ customer service operator and has a good sense of humour with an inter-personal approach.
I would consider using Toomey Hyundai again. 9/10.

Purchased a Vauxhall Frontera EV in April. Whole of infotainment system failed in July. Took it back Toomey as Satnav, hands free phone, radio, car play etc did not work. Apparently a common fault with Frontera. Told me car had been repaired, collected car, fault still the same. Told it could take weeks to repair by technician. Car still at Toomey. They refused to provide hire car whilst mine off road. Now considering rejecting car under consumer rights act. Staff indifferent, company no help & Vauxhall say it’s dealers responsibility. My advice, be careful about buying a Frontera EV. Customer Service from Toomey is very very poor.

Worse than it went in!

I took my car in for a full service and to fix recalls and now its worse than when it went in.
The steering started pulling to the left, I took it back a week after the service, they said its a tracking issue.
I took it to a garage and they said its not tracking but the tyre pressures were off but it made no difference to the steering.
Since I took it back for Renault Toomey to check what was wrong, the petrol gauge is faulty and the front sensors have now stopped working. I'm now told I have to wait a month to bring it back in so I have to drive my 2yr old around in a car that doesn't steer properly. A family owned company that doesn't seem to care about families apparently. A complete nightmare.
Update: I contacted the email below but heard nothing.

EXTREMELY SATISFIED CUSTOMER

I WAS MET WITH A VERY POLITE & PROFESSIONAL JAMIE WHO CHECKED ME IN. GRAHAM WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL AND HELPFUL, HE SHOWED ME TO THE COURTESY CAR, MOVED BAGS FROM MY CAR TO COURTESY CAR AND MADE SURE I WAS COMFORTABLE BEFORE DRIVING AWAY. MY SERVICE, MOT & WINDOW REPAIR WERE DONE BY 3.30PM. WHEN I COLLECTED MY CAR JAMIE WAS EQUALLY AS HELPFUL AND MOVED BAGS BACK INTO MY CAR. BOTH JAMIE AND GRAHAM ARE A CREDIT TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT HYAUNDI :)

Olivia was very accommodating and customer service was spot on, what was a lengthy problem, Olivia made it go away, she booked quickly and kept me informed throughout. Fingers crossed its fixed but have no worries if I need to go back as Olivia has said to let her know if I have any further issues she will do her best to get it in ASAP
