      Service or Repair Issues
      Status:
      Answered
      Requested to have a Camara Mirror installed. They told me it would $360 for an hour and half of work so I ask them, for that much on labor they could cut an area on my bumper so the rear camara could be protected. the request was not done, so a short time later the camara got damaged which exposed the wire and shorted out the camera mirror. Call several times and they would not answer or hang up on me. Had to buy for a new system and pay to have it removed and the new one installed. they owe me $500 this will not happen after seeing all the complaints they have so I will post at all the forums buyers be ware they are rip off artists.

      terrible! I drove an hour and the price went up $75.00 from what I was quoted. IMO you should go ANYWHERE ELSE!

      Audio Express Response

      04/22/2024

      in order to respond to this specific situation it would be helpful if we had detailed information such as sales total, location, prodcuts involved, type of vehicle etc. Since the type of work we do involves installing mobile electronics into vehicles, a number of variables exist that are dependant on the condtion of the vehicle and/or the condition of products already in the vehicle. The process can and does change not only once we initially inspect a vehicle but also once we "get inside" it. Our sales staff should have alerted this customer (as they are trained to do) that even though we use our best effort to provide accurate quotes, unforseen variables come into play when we inspect the vehicle which (given the lack or detail provided) is most likely the case.
