WORKSHOPS :- TIME TAKEN
POSITIVE COMMENTS |
Good booking in service and realistic time scale quoted |
As they try to conceal as much of the fitment as possible, time taken is reasonable |
NEGATIVE COMMENTS |
I feel that 4 days to fit a radio/flashing headlights to be excessive |
I don't think workshops would last long as a viable commercial business |
I don't think work on officers cars are given enough priority |
Vehicles seem to spend a lot of time at w/s with no work being done on them |
Delays getting booked in due to heavy workload |
4 days to fit radio is scandalous.....not cost effective |
Would have preferred a quicker turnaround |
Lack of co-ordination between various suppliers of kit to be fitted in fds officers cars |
SUGGESTIONS |
Recommend dropping phone fits and asking officers to make own arrangements from list of registered fitters and reimburse |
Service could be improved if a vehicle was made available at workshops for officers use whilst theirs was being worked on |
