Great service in Reading

I booked my car to go to the branch in Reading for its first MOT, very easy to book, friendly service and quick work. Will use this place going forward!

Showing a very misleading mistake, On the web site

I have had 2 cars MOTed this month. Very happy with the MOTs at Hemel. 5 stars

Not so Happy with Motest's web site and their head office. They are showing a very misleading mistake. On their web site. I contacted the Head Office, But it is still there.
Under the button ABOUT
Motest & Covid-19 update
"Dear Customer,
We want to bring you up to date with our MOT/ garage services position. On March 25th, the government announced the following;
Car owners are granted a six-month extension for Mot's that expire from Monday March 30th.
The extension applies from the date of expiry......"
This is for the March 2020 Up-date, last year. As they do not show the year on this up-date and it is now March 2021. Some people may think this is new for 2021 and not get there MOTs. it needs up dating.

Very good service and friendly staff

Very good service and friendly staff. I use Camberley branch to service and MOT my family cars.
Recently performed a major service on my 2015 BMW for a fraction of the price of the main dealer, and they can now record the BMW electronic service history.

AVOID if You Value Your Safety

AVOID if you value your safety.

I had an MOT carried out in Farnham (Nov 2020). MOTest missed some serious corrosion on the rear of my front brake disc. Luckily the garage that carried out the final service noticed this fault and managed to make the car safe to drive (thank god, I have kids). The final garage stated "we are staggered this could have been missed and should have resulted in a failed MOT".

In addition, during the MOT my key was broken by MOTest. Unbelievably bad service and are they interested in either complaint. You guessed it, no. Never again!!!!

We failed this customers car October 29 on 4 major defects. It did not fail on the brake discs as the MOT regulations are quite clear as defined in the DVSA manual below;
'A brake disc or drum must be significantly worn before you should reject it. Being worn below the manufacturer’s recommended limits is not a reason in itself.'
Defect Category
(a) Brake disc or drum:
(i) significantly and obviously worn: Major
(ii) insecure, fractured or otherwise likely to fail: Dangerous
(b) Contaminated with oil, grease etc. Major
(c) Missing Dangerous
(d) Brake drum back plate insecure Major

Brake disc corrosion is itself not a reason to fail a vehicle, so to make the claim that we allowed an unsafe item to go unnoticed or missed is totally incorrect - they were to acceptable standard.

We carry out tens of thousands of test a year and would never let a vehicle through a test that was not to regulation so totally reject the 'avoid if you value your safety' proposition.

As far as the key is concerned, it is true it broke in our workshop which is unfortunate, but this was not due to rough handling on our part - the plastic casing just failed. We affected a repair as best we could which the customer tried in our presence and it worked. It is regrettable that this happened but to hold us solely responsible is not right. However, we would be happy to source a replacement at a heavily discounted price, if the customer wants to get in touch.

I'd like to tell you about my very bad…

I'd like to tell you about my very bad experience yesterday.
Yesterday I had the MOT for my van, I knew it wouldn't turn on, because not using it since March I thought the battery had drained.
Thanks to the help of a neighbor it was turned on and I went with my husband to the MOTEST garage in Epsom, arrived there it turned off again.
The mechanic told us it was the alternator that didn't work and sent us away!!!
Telling us that first we had to repair the alternator and then come back!
Now, I'm not a mechanic, but the one who sent us away, yes!
Knowing full well that he could stop on the street at any time... And in fact we stopped at the intersection of Ewell By Pass...
Where we stayed for five very long hours waiting for a tow truck and the police who had to block traffic!!!
What I don't understand is how a "professional" can, knowing what can happen, send you away from a garage, where they could very well fix everything! They also had the place to park it waiting for a tow truck if they just didn't want to fix it!
Mah!

Resposta da Motest

We are sorry to learn of Mrs Dominici's problems with her van and the unfortunate breakdown. However, we feel the comments and blame are unfair. We are a 4.9 Google garage, so very highly rated which clearly illustrates our commitment to exceptional levels of service and we have treated this customer no differently.
Her van is a class 7 (3000-3500kg), a heavy vehicle kitted out as a mobile pizza kitchen and it was booked in for MOT. Because of the governments 6 month MOT extension due to Covid, test demands are exceptionally high, particularly for class 7 vans. Regrettably the customer was late for the appointment which we understand was due to starting difficulties after the van had been laid up for some time. When it arrived there was a visual warning light indicating a charging fault, probably with the alternator. However we wanted to help out so attempted to test it, after starting it on a boost (which in itself is enough reason for rejection prior to commencement of test). When it was clear the MOT could not be undertaken without issue the test had to be abandoned. This led to the question of repair.
The only way you can change the alternator on this Renault Traffic is from underneath should this be the actual fault – which as this point was not confirmed, so to change it required our special ramp for heavy vehicles. This ramp was in use and could not be used and it is heavily booked out for the next 2 weeks with pre booked workshop appointments. This was explained to the customer in a very polite manner as was the fact the van could not be left, as the car park is very full and would be busy for the foreseeable due to workload.
We re-boosted her van to get it going and advised her to try other garages and she then left. We did everything we could in the circumstances but unfortunately could not help any more.
For the record, the vehicle was tested by us last year and taken elsewhere for subsequent repairs and returned for retest.

MOT at MOTEST ALDERSHOT BRANCH

Wanted to write something about my recent MOT at MOTEST ALDERSHOT. I previously regularly visited the Aldershot branch where my car was then well looked after by your tester technician E Grayson, however I have not visited for 5 years due to ill health.
My car is a 2004 BMW E46 M3. Your technician A Taylor was very respectful to my vehicle, so many times I’ve dropped my car off at companies for work fearing it would be ragged or would have the nuts revved off of it in the car park just to hear its exhaust noise. I have witnessed this done on numerous occasions, However none of this here! He just very professionally got in it and got on with his job. It was a nice touch allowing the public to view the whole mot process on a widescreen tv monitor whilst sat in reception! I noticed whilst watching that he even realigned my drivers side headlamp beam free of charge when I had forgotten to ask them to do it as I knew it was a little high. I was made to feel welcome and both staff members I spoke with were very nice to deal with. I will be back regularly again.

Resposta da Motest

The customer and ourselves corresponded last week and while we understand his view on being charged 1.5 hours when we completed the work in 1 hour, the charge is legitimate. We are sorry that our response did not meet his satisfaction, but we tried to explain as follows.
Most garages charge based on estimated or book times allowed for each repair. We had 2 technicians working on this job covering 2 distinct repairs - first to replace the inner CV boot (1hr) and second the removal of an HID lamp kit and subsequent bulb replacement (30 mins) to enable us to issue an MOT pass.
The car arrived at 12.45pm and the job was started at around 12 50 pm
The CV joint replacement was carried out by the manager, estimated at 1 hour which is correct for this job based on the book time and allowing for the need to thoroughly clean the joint which we had to do because of dirt ingress through the split and they can be difficult to get out due to seizing in the hub or damage to the inner joint circlip. The HID headlamp kit removal was carried out by one of our techs and booked out at 30minutes. The removal of non standard accessories must be done with care to ensure the wiring is not compromised or damaged.
The manager (who tested the car) checked the lighting, parked the car up around 13.50 and then issued a pass certificate.
We therefore stand by the work and the charge of 1.5 hours labour as per our estimate. Our policy is to hide nothing and break out the cost of labour and parts separately. Many garages do not do this and charge a lump sum, making it difficult for customers to understand what is what.
Our Bexhill branch has a great reputation and we do not 'rip off' or 'blank' customers and was surprised to get a complaint after we got the car fixed and handed back with paperwork completed in 75 minutes.

Reading branch - Major service and MOT

Major service and MOT was booked into the Reading branch with new brake pads etc the final cost was £555.
On collection of the car the car clearly wasn’t cleaned internally and externally although the service report sheet was ticked to say it had been.
This led me to further interrogate the report.
The report stated that all five tyres were of a single brand which they aren’t and that the front tread was more worn than the rear.
Given the front tyres are brand new and having only done 10 miles max since purchase this was fictitious on the report it made me question how many other items have been carried out and what level of care and attention was undertaken.
I spoke to the garage and they said they would take another look at the car.
The car has been in for a full second day and tyre details have been updated on a new service form and all other parts remain the same.
On collection I was informed that currently no internal clean due to COVID, I wasn’t made aware of this before the service started or after I returned it to the garage only on collection the second time. I do find this a little strange as for the garage to carry out the service people have been in the car and from dashcam footage the car has been driven around the block and feel this could have been carried out in a safe manner it was more a case that the garage didn’t want to do it.
I would point that they fitted a cardboard air freshener for me in the car, unfortunately the person who fitted would have done well to wash the oil off their hands before fitting.
The external wash resembled someone pouring a single watering can over it and left a lot to be desired.
Given this garage was used by us previously on recommendation by others I think it is highly unlikely I use them again.

Avoid if you want a working car

Had my MOT done at the Reading branch. They damaged the engine on my VW Golf so badly that they ripped a hole in the sump and refused to continue the MOT. Said it must have been damaged elsewhere despite no oil on the ground where it had been parked. Car no longer starts when hot and requires continuous cranking to get going. Car was fine before it went in. They refused to accept liability and the car was eventually scrapped. Complete Cowboys. Avoid at all costs.

Excellent service at Epsom branch

This was the first time I have used MOTEST & I cannot fault the branch in Epsom. I booked an MOT & Service online & received a text reminder. I got a phone call to say that my car had passed it's MOT with advisory for 2 new front tyres (not a surprise as it was flagged up last year). They ordered new tyres to be delivered the next day. As a female with limited car knowledge I don't usually like visiting garages, but was pleasantly surprised how friendly the staff at Epsom were. Will be booking next year for MOT & Service.

Excellent POLITE service

Excellent POLITE service. I only had to wait one hour for test to be completed (unlike some nameless companies local to Hemel hempstead, who keep you waiting over 3 hours, and are less than polite). I have used them for many years and have always been pleased with the service. I wholeheartedly recommend the Hemel Hempstead branch.

Closed branch and no communication to cancel MOT

I have used Just Motor Care / MOTEST for 7 years and have been extremely happy with the service up until yesterday.

Booked an MOT in March to be carried out at MOTEST FAVERSHAM, Yesterday was its MOT appointment , took the morning off of work, drove down there and was greeted to IT BEEN CLOSED. I had NOT be phoned or received an email to say that it was closed or to even cancel the MOT appointment.

THE MAIN MOTEST WEBSITE STATES THAT IT IS OPEN AND NOT CLOSED. So wasted my time, fuel and I still have to get an MOT carried out.

THANKS MOTEST FOR THAT BRILLIANT CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!!!

To top it all off this morning I get a feedback email from them to fill out for the MOT that was carried out yesterday.

GET A GRIP MOTEST AND WORK OUT WHATS GONE WRONG A SIMPLE PHONE CALL OR EMAIL WOULD HAVE BEEN ENOUGH NOT TO WASTE MY TIME.

Having my car serviced and MOT’d

Having my car mot and service carried out is so stressful the week after Christmas, very bad timing! But the guys at motest in Hemel always make it better! They are so helpful professional friendly and polite! And I never feel like I’m being ripped off like I do at some other garages! I would definitely recommend them!

Motest Reading

They always keep the car for the whole day, no matter what time you take it in and regardless of the suggested completion times on their web site.

For the second year in a row I asked for a small missing part on the car to be replaced, and they didn't do it. The guy in reception made it clear he didn't give a toss. I'll now have to get it from the Ford garage again, and I guess next year I'll get Ford to do the service and MOT as well.

No complaints about the Bracknell branch

Never had a problem at the Bracknell branch. Their prices seem reasonable, and I’ve never felt like I’ve been taken for a ride.

They have MOT’d my car quickly at the last minute when I lost track of it.

They have also manage to diagnose and fix an issue the afternoon prior to me needing to take the car with us on holiday the next day - one of the blokes even worked a bit past closing time if I remember correctly to make sure it was fixed and tested ready for the holiday!
