Rip off
Portmaqurie autobarn I brought a kicker sub with amp they charged me 200 to install the subwoofer and 75 for the high low converter. Yet the labour was only 2 hours. No nothing in reply the biggest dogs I've ever dealt with.

Great service and prices on special
Went to Warriewood store to get several parts, in fact had a list.
Counter staff could not have been more helpful or polite.
Filled the list, gave advice on oil and other parts.
And specials made it much cheaper than their main opposition.
Impressed, will return, and it is quite a detour for me.

Bait Advertising Specialists - IMO - once again - Macgregor Store Brisbane
Twice in the last two months I have stopped into this store to buy some advertised oil only to be told we have sold out and have no stock and wont be getting any more. The 1st time was 2 days after a new catalog advertised, and the second was when I stopped in after seeing a sign out the front advertising the same oil, only to be told we are sold out again... I be wont be buying anything from them ever again or wasting my time walking into there store... poor form IMO.

Rude and unapologetic
On school holidays road trip my 2way radio handset failed. Called Toowoomba store and quoted model etc told they had part and i told Mark I was driving from Dalby (1.15hrs) to purchase it. Got there and copped attitude from female staff member after I was jovial on arrival? Told they didn’t have a compatible item and would have to order part in. Explained that I had called ahead and driven 95ks, given a smug look and a shoulder shrug and no apology what so ever. Just rude, how would they like it if I made them pack up camp drive 90ks with a tod...Read more
dler and a wife with laryngitis just be abruptly told they don’t have it.... retailers cant seriously wonder why ppl shop online, bought the part for $20 less online with zero attitude. If I factor in the fuel cost from Dalby/Toowoomba/Dalby I’m in the red so just cut out the middleman and buy online which will make retails give better customer service.

Always Great Service
I thought I should share positive feedback, as people only ever want to seem to complain. I go to the Virginia store when ever I need anything and they always have the best service. Jeff is great. Bought my dash matt for my new truck, couldn't be happier with the advice.

Return policy is crap at Kawana
Your kawana store will not return speaker spacers that do not fit the car.
The staff was rude.
Plus if this is the example of Autobarn when things go wrong, it does not fill me with confidence to continue to shop at you stores.

Broke my car, then told me to "just chill"
Came in to Autobarn Traralgon morning after a recommendation from my partner to have my wiper blades replaced. The female staff member removed the front blades, and then snapped the arm of the back blade whilst removing it.
The arm, being snapped, could not be replaced immediately. When I asked the manager for a written statement that Autobarn had broken a part on my car (as I was not going to drive away without details of what happened) I was told to “just chill”, and only given an apology when I pointed out that I had not received one. In t...Read more

Rude and arrogant manager
I bought my items from Dural and tried to return several things I bought, as my car was stolen. Even though I was within the 14 day return period for anything unused and not special ordered (I bought things from wax, to headlights to brake pads, nothing was used, opened or special order) and the nice young man at the front counter said no problem we can refund everything, as per their policy. He had to go talk to [name removed]. When the friendly young man came back, he said no problem at all, but [name removed] said we will have to charge you ...Read more
$30 per brak pad set, plus $10 shipping (no issue paying the shipping to and from, but 33% restocking fee?) this would mean I paid 200 for the pads and I'd get back 130 (BTW I hadn't picked up the pads yet, they were still at the top AB Dural, so I wasn't even in possession of them yet) But I said OK no worries, I understand as maybe it was a special order or something. So about 10 minutes go by of the young man apologising for [name removed] not coming to the front. (Have a suspicion that [name removed] doesn't allow staff to issue refund et cetera, for the reason Alex Tans review covered and mine as well) when [name removed] finally appeared and said "so you have the police report?" Quite shocked I said yes but it's at home, I wasn't aware I needed it to return the items under your own policy. He kept ranting on about he refused to refund anything, even the stuff that were not brake pads (I could understand the brake pads but they were not a special order or custom). And I said your receipt here on the back says I have 14 days to return anything unused, not custom made. But he still said he wouldn't refund without a police report. I asked him where in the policy is the refund based on certain circumstances. He refused. So I said he could either honour their own policy or I'd call Amex and get them to do a charge back. He didn't seem to get what this was. So I walked away with my goods, even agreeing to keep the brake pads as I could probably sell them on eBay for less of a loss. I sat in the carpark and called Amex, they said no problem, my items met AB return policies and they would charge back the merchant, Autospec. I went in one last time, as it was the right thing to do, instead of keeping the items and getting a refund, I wrote down all the details of the charge back, whom I spoke with and the amount and all other details. I told him he could either explain to his boss why he lost nearly 400 worth of products (brake pads not included) and also the 400 dollars. He mumbled and groaned and reluctantly said OK. The whole time though he was complaining and muttering under his breath. I explained that I wasn't the type of person to keep the money and bascially steal the products, I was raised better than this. Now I cannot speculate what [name removed] problem is or was. But I'd avoid AB Dural at all costs. I will never buy there again until [name removed] is gone. The other staff are friendly and helpful, but [name removed], absolute pain in the backside. And before you think I'm in the wrong, read their return policy. I was even happy to eat the 70 dollars for the brake pads although nowhere it stated I couldn't return them or there was a % restocking fee et cetera. Nothing was open, used, or unsellable. So it met every condition of their own return policy, from online, posted in store and on the receipt itself. So Caveat Emptor if you choose to be a patron of this store. I'd avoid like the plague.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!
Amazing service, friendly staff.
I called into your Nunawading workshop today totally lost (I live Interstate) to get help with my new navigation system. The lovely lady who helped me was amazing and so helpful. Thank you again and I will definitely visit Austobarn in the future and recommend you to family and friends. Cheers Judy

Pleasant shopping experience
I have recently retired and purchased a new ford ranger. My knowledge of 4WD equipment is limited. “NIC” at Cockburn Central went above and beyond to assist me. His guidance through the process of determining what was nice to have compared to need to have was exceptional. I thoroughly recommend this store to similar situated people.

Up selling
Wanted a leather cleaner and asked for advice on which one is best, they tried to sell me 3 different products.
Wanted a wiper refill they told me I had to replace both wipers and full arms! I have been replacing just the rubber wiper for years now.
Asked about a stereo tried to sell me 3 different times in which I continued to decline.
I eventually left after 20 minutes.
I just wanted a leather cleaner.

Bonus gift card via redemption is just a scam to get your details, Hopeless staff who have no clue
I avoid going to Autobarn as they have no idea about the products they sell, December 2018 "Bonus $20 gift card" via redemption* conditions printed where no one can read it & ends up just being a scam to get customers details to send out advertising, Specifically call the store to find out if they have the item I need only to find they don't have it when I get to the store. Only went there this time as the oil I wanted was on special. SHOP ELSEWHERE!!

Always on the mark
We have been having our vehicle serviced and repaired for a few years at Cockburn. Nothing has ever been a problem, even when the vehicle overheated several times different diagnostic tools where used additionally at no cost until a solution was found. We find the Cockburn store is a one stop no hassles solution to all of our vehicle and mechanical needs. Well explained, well priced and always accomodating.

Had stereo installed and they damaged my dashboard.. cracked it. Said they would find a part and rep
No needed a professional to install. Plus didn't get the hands-free to work properly. Take your money, cause more damage then fob you off.

Great service
Just happened that after used twice my "Chinese wonder" car jack, it stopped working i bought it 8 months ago. As
it was still under warranty I returned to Autobarn Cannington WA on monday morning (9.15 am) dreading of the possible avoidances etc. To my surprise the Gentlemen serving me was very helpful. Long story short after 10 min I left the shop happily with a slightly better car jack. Highly recommended.

Excellent service from staff
Staff very friendly and helpful.
Assisted me in choosing appropriate dash cam. Thank you Sok for your valued time you took to ensure that you set my mind at ease, by setting up the unit in my car and also go back in to the store to reassure me that it was recording. Also pointed out the detail it captured.
He was patient and extremely helpful. Other staff also smiling, happy and interactive. Nice to be treated as a valued customer even though it was my first visit there. See you again.
