Sabi ng ibang service advisor pipinturahan na lang daw nila. Hindi ako pumayag gusto ko bago ipalit nila. Brand new yung sasakyan at sila ang buminyag.

Paano ko kaya malalaman na bago ipapalit nila? baka recyled lang yung bumper at yung pintura hindi kaya magiba kulay nun kaysa sa body nya itim pa naman innova namin?

Joaquim, ang challenge kung papalitan ng buo is kung mapapantay nila ng maayos yung body paint (this is tricky). Yung scratch baka mas madaling maremedyohan. Yung dent, kung walang paint scratch ay madali lang through paintless dent removal. Yung pagkadispalinghado, madali rin, iaayos lang yung support at mga brackets, papalitan kung sira. Pero kung malaki and damage sa bumper, malamang palit na nga.

Sir yun sa akin mabangga ng kumpare ko... pinaayos ko sa otis... di pumayag na palitan ng insurance kasi dis aligned lang at scratches, kaya nirepaint lang. kaso sir, check mo mabuti, kasi yun sa akin ilang beses ko binalik para ibackjob, nandun yun may bula, di pantay, disaligned. basta balbon sila magtrabaho! super check mo lang lahat para makasiguro ka kung repaint ba ginawa o pinalitan... sa case ko ako na nagsawang magpabalik balik dahil sa sayang yung oras ko... tagal pa nila gumawa.

sana nakatulong.

Sir buti nagtanong ka. Antimano sabihin mo agad na change oil lang. sabihin mo wag na lagyan ng kung ano-ano. kasi pag di mo sinabi, dami nila ilalagay. saka pwede yun bantayan, sabihin mo sa SA mo na titignan mo yun paggawa. tapos itanong mo din yun 5K PMS checklist nila, kung ano ano yun.

by the way ako lilipat na toyota makati.mas mura dun...

Hello to all fellow tsikoteers and fellow Innova owners as well! I just can't help reading sir Joaquim's concern as I would like to share the same experience I had when I brought our Innova for the 10km pms a few mos. back at Toyota Otis. After the vehicle was serviced, I noticed that the service advisor did'nt make a final checklist before I was about to bring it out form the casa parking lot. It was a good thing that I was able to check it myself before even going inside the vehicle and hold and behold... may dents (dimple type) akong nakita sa right front door ng sasakyan!

It was as if sinuntok yung sasakyan using iron knuckles (liyabe?) markang marka yung 4 knuckles na naiwan sa pintuan! I approached the service advisor, he kept giving me the run-arounds, even had the nerve to offer me their "Paintless Dent Removal" promo na lagi nila minamarket apparently evidenced by their banners na halos tinatakpan na yung casa.

To make it short I went directly to the service manager and w/o asking too many questions he instructed his staff to fix it as a sign of goodwill (goodwill?! hindi ko nga kasalanan why would I pay for it?). Went back the day after and it took me the whole day waiting for their professional denter to get the job done. This time I was outside, never stayed on their so-called "lounge" (I don't like their iced tea anyway & takot ako sa free coffee!) and to my dismay even, nakita ko ung "professional denter" nila parang nangangapa pa ata

. Sabi ko I could have just taken it to a well known & reputable shop and have them reimbursed me for the cost..but no goodwill daw! Anyway hope this shared experience would help and sir tutukan nyo lang gagawin sa ride nyo! Keep driving and enjoy the ride on your Innovas!

Just be vigilant of the "hidden" charges that casas make. Make sure na pag nakalagay sa bill "Check and Clean brakes", ginawa talaga ng mechanic yun.

And yes, kurtsm is right wag ng magpalagay ng anu-ano, esp. additives...anyway, sir kurtsm mukhang lipat nadin ako sa Makati-talaga ba mas mura dun & quality naman service? Kundi lang talaga sa warranty....
