Repair Quality

The quality of the work that was completed was good — no complaints there. However, the overall experience was poor. I initially approved a repair (fixing a hole in the taillight) as part of a larger insurance-related project with Schaefer Auto Body. After the initial work was completed, my dashboard continued to show warnings. I then took the car to a Honda dealership service center and paid $150 for a diagnostic. They identified the issue as a hole in the taillight allowing moisture in — the exact repair I had originally approved but that had not been completed. When I brought this back to Schaefer, they initially told me I hadn’t approved the repair. After I directed them to the email confirming my approval, they acknowledged the mistake and said they would order the necessary part and contact me once it arrived. Two weeks passed with no communication. I eventually followed up myself and was told the part had already arrived, so I came in to have the repair completed. At that point, I also shared that the Honda dealership said the dashboard issues were caused by moisture entering through the hole in the taillight. Schaefer told me that wasn’t possible. However, since the repair has now been completed, I have had no dashboard warning lights, which suggests the Honda dealership’s diagnosis was correct. When I picked up my car, I was handed a single key. I had dropped off my full key ring, but they insisted they hadn’t removed any keys. It turned out they had given me the key to a different vehicle. Finally, when I informed Schaefer that I had to spend $150 on a diagnostic because the originally approved repair wasn’t completed, there was no apology or offer to reimburse or credit any portion of that cost.

They did a great job with my car. The woman at the front desk went above and beyond to make sure I did the rental correctly (I kept messing up online!). Thank you to everyone for their kindness, professionalism, and thoroughness!

I am going to remain neutral. Not recommending but not discouraging either. My experience is my experience.
