The locksmith behaved arrogantly throughout the process. Instead of explaining things clearly, they spoke in a condescending tone, as if I didn’t know anything. Customers deserve respect, not attitude.

Tech arrived on time as expected. Pulled right into my driveway explaining everything he was doing and showing me his equipment. He programmed a new remote for my car. He asked me what functions I wanted which was great. The only thing was no matter what he tried he could not get my remote start to work on it. I use it all the time and will kiss it on my back up. Otherwise very happy with him and the company.
