nakakabwiset pala talaga ang RAPIDE na yan. ang pinaka-ayoko sa lahat ung nanloloko and mukhang pera!!!

bukod dito sa thread natin na 'to, pano pa kaya natin madi-discourage other tsikoteers not to patronize rapide?

mas magandang target siguro natin is totally magsasra na ang buong shops ng RAPIDE. they deserve more than losing their business..

[morrissey_05]

i salute those on the thread who have given the Rapide people some payback. it shows we can be serious consumers. thats our problem sometimes, we tend to shrug these things off. kultura natin siguro. even i admit that (shrugging it off) was my first reaction when i read the first few posts of this thread. but you guys have proven you can do one better.

I'm really interested to see what Rapide has to say about this. If they reply to you, please post their email reply here, so we can see what they have to say.

[Photoaddict]

magpapagawa pa naman ako sana sa rapide. talyer na lang nga

pokpokin ang mga tao sa rapide

[Paolo123]

Update ko kayo bukas guys kung anong mangyayari... And guess what, ang lakas pa rin magbawas ng clutch fluid ko! na goyo na nga ko, hindi pa nila naayos yung sira. Talaga nga naman, kala ko anggagaling nila, isang tingin lang sa kotse ko, alam na nila yung sira. Ayun pala mga bugok!

[Galactus]

Thanks to tsikot and other car forums, I never considered Rapide as an option pag may ipapagawa ako. My belief was reinforced when my officemate recounted yung time na na-flatan sya, at pumunta sa Rapide somwhere in Makati City (Pasong Tamo ata), para bumili ng gulong last year. Aba, hindi raw pwede bumili ng isa lang, kelangan daw dalawa, kasi yun yung minimum nila! Since pasira na yung nakakabit na spare, napilitan syang bumili ng 2. But the tire's price was ok though.

[praktikal]

haayyy rapide na naman as in RAPIDO -- maningil.

Mike Enriquez o Tulfo ang katapat nito.

[Driv3er]

salamat sa feeback mga sir i will never go here. inofferan pa naman ako bumili ng mga promo cards nila. (pero no way kasi why will i buy promo cards para i-avbail ko services nila?)

maganda lang cguro marketing strategy ng rapide kaya dami naloloko! but service sucks! ang yabang pa nung manger dito sa min pweh! mas marami pa ako alam sa sasakyan kesa sayo! pweh!

[claRkEnt]

Midas Way! That's it! kaya pala bawat kotse na pinagagawa sa kanila, nagiging GOLD... GOLDMINE for them.

[mbeige]

MIDAS is not a really good company here, just like Jiffy Lube and other well known quick fix shops. Avoid them at all costs.

yung rapide sa las piñas along alabang zapote road nung bagong bukas late last year dinala ko yung hilux ko, leaking yung load proportioning valve assembly, ang qoute ng rapide sa akin Php8500. atras agad ako, kinalas ko na lang yung piyesa then umikot ako sa zapote. Php4200 lang yung whole assembly, tapos may nag offer sa akin repair kit Php650 lang.
ayos sabi ko, ako na lang titira nyan. at the end of the day it cost me 650 and 1 bottle ng brake fluid plus konting pawis and alikabok sa pagsuot ko sa ilalim,
ang maganda, i learn something on my ride kung paano nag function yung load proportioning valve

tuwing madadaan ko yung rapide ngayon napapangiti ako. hehe di nyo ko nagoyo.....

[mhelskie]

pag may nadadaanan akong rapide, lagi ko tinitingnan kung may mga customer sila, kung meron akong makita, parang gusto ko hatakin palabas para sa iba na lang magpagawa ehehe.

Mas maayos di hamak service ng Servitek kesa rapide, dun na lang kyo magpagawa kung nde kayang i DIY
