I forgot to add, they forgot some of their tools on my bonnet. When i turned back from vgc to them, there was no parking space inside and i was asked to park outside. So i parked, opened my bonnet, lo and behold they left about 2 tools(i dont know the name but it was not spanners or screw driver) in my bonnet.
Mr Glenn came to meet me outside and when i showed him the forgotten tools he exclaimed that they were expensive.

Would i recommend them to anyone? Definitely No.

On the positive side; their jerk chicken was really good so maybe they should close the mechanic side and focus on food grin

This further adds to what I suspect. They are overwhelmed. I need to find a solution to this whether it's to close down for a while so they can catch up, retrain and reopen on an appointment only basis or put a cap on jobs that are taken in, something. Thank you for this additional information.

this childish propensity for insulting each other over things that are not even about one another is one of the reasons I don't really bother with this forum any more. See how some of you are abusing each other and you not even the one they are complaining about! Then some even more childish ones that one would expect to be more mature are posting meme upandan to further escalate the infighting. What is wrong with people on this forum?

You abused the guy with a complaint, then you abused the people abuse the guy then it just turn into abuse me I abuse you when people have real problems that need solving. Wtf!

If you're that sure, feel free to contact me directly with your real identity and let's take this to court keyboard warrior. Until then, sit In a corner. I have more important things to attend to.

I have taken a car for AC issue to Radauto in 2017 . I was billed 180k(excluding workmanship)for compressor and total overhaul of cooling system. I waited over 6 weeks for the parts to arrive Nigeria, took the car there and it was "fixed" and i paid for workmanship and gas(i cant remember amount)
Driving out from their shop to vgc, there was mild traffic, Ac wasnt working. I drove back to them and complained. They said it wasnt tested in traffic grin
Long story short, took the car to an Ibo guy at Abijo. He changed the whole cooling system again with tokunbo and AC is chilling till date. [b]I ended up selling Rad's compressor to aboki for chicken change [/b]because no one else would buy it

Why?? It was our product and we did the install. We'd have taken it back. Did you ask?

If I were you I'll really consider sticking to making that delicious jerk chicken and selling food big time. At least, that's the only part of your business with a positive review.

UnFortunately for you, there are multiple other people with similar complaints of poor service

I am sure you can begin to tell us about how all of them bought junkers or Nigeria used cars or what ever nonsense your addled brain will spill out.

It is clearly be too hard for you to understand that there is a problem with rad and her business model

It is far easier to blame to owners of the vehicles.

But then, you aren't a business owner and you clearly do not have the mental capacity to be one. At best you have the mentality of a ladipo tout who can never take responsibility for any failure and is only good for gaslighting annoyed customers

You also have poor reading comprehension since you missed the fact that rads team messed up two of my cars, a sienna and a Ford ranger

But you do you, overgrown edgelord looking to troll and talk shit like a 10 year old

Feel free to stand in the corner while the adults talk this out. When we need some entertainment, you have our permission to drop some misyarns

I hardly post here. I almost opened a thread when it happened to me too, but decided against it later. I don't know if Aunty Radu will remember my car, because I reached out to her at some point.

Had an issue with my Volkswagen Scirocco. Engine smokes and misfires. I have a brother in law who is a technician on Nairaland on the mainland. He recommended I take the car to Radautoworks because I was living right by their gate. I went there and got a long list of parts that will be used to rebuild the engine in addition to some parts I bought from Germany prior to that. I import parts for the car from Europe majorly. Of course, the bill was through the roof, brother in law said no issues as long as they did a good job, because I stayed in touch with him too throughout.

Not to bore with details, car was "completed", but apparently they could not set the timing. The big guy there suggested I buy one tool like that so they can use to set the timing and I can keep it afterwards. I felt I cannot do that since the tool is costly and I am not a technician. Brother in law doesn't have too. It just looked all wrong after everything I paid.

I eventually went to pick up my car from there with all the misfires and loss of power. I got there, and the lady at the reception insisted I must pay their balance before I be allowed to pick up my faulty car that is still faulty. After paying them over 300k for an engine rebuild for various consumables, considering that I imported majority of the parts from Europe. I was too tired by then, I just paid the money and picked my car. I lived right by their gate so I felt I can manage it home anyways.

I got home and had to reverse for the first time that evening so I can park properly, and surprise, my car doesn't go into reverse anymore. It just blinks the "R" light. I was so pissed. It was pushed into position that evening.

Rang up brother in law, blamed him for the entire mess, told him he must fix that car. The poor guy couldn't say anything. Towed the car to his place. My car is now fine, engine and transmission. Took some weeks but it is now fine. Oh! The car also stayed a long time at Radautoworks before I finally decided to pick up.

Now that I am not so pissed, I think they need to work on their process. We all learn everyday. I feel not all cars should be accepted by the workshop if you feel you cannot handle it. A few people here do that already. And I feel it's unfair to make a customer pay for repairs that are not effective.

Anyways that was my own experience. Apologies for the long read. I left out a lot of details, but it's still long anyways.
No be you transfer money chook inside account number wey no be official one?If my guess is right, then na you for sure.

Most likely one of the reasons I don't advertise. They are overwhelmed.
Excuse from the pit of hell.No wonder you are called a witch.Because how an outfit will take on Jobs they do not have the capacity to deliver on,and make excuses as if the jobs were forced on them,I do not seem to understand.Has to be witchcraft!The desire to leave things half done is tantamount to wickedness.Ony witchcraft will make you guys do such in the first place

sultaan:



I know say you're hurt and pained by the Toyota, but if I lied or make any false statement correct me.

Insulting will not solve your problem, we don't like telling each other the truth, but N100,000s all the cheering crowd go mind their business and you will still have your Toyota or whatever the problem is. The earlier you see a junker as a junkers the easier it is to make better decision fix what can be fixed roll with the rest.

Yours will be a lesson to the next person enjoy the vawulence But between you and I; I am the only one that can laugh about everything you are typing.

Your own case is beyond redemption.Little wonder you are boasting of laughing when nothing is funny.You don dey craze,and you have me to tell you.Wayray alaso angry

Take her word for it smiley


Word wey don cast patapata grin

Reading through this thread honestly gives me the shivers..

Glenn is doing shitt billing like a kidnapper and destroying vehicles, while his wife Radarada is carelessly capping shitt to us without caring if we believe it or not..like say na cows and goats she dey follow talk grin

I no blame her sha.. After all said and done, She is still Nigerian...

From blaming bouncing mail to blaming staff to distancing herself from the shitstorm that Car quest is presently, as she is presently working on a new project while abandoning the old one to ride into an abyss.

To adding promises to "fix" stuff when the one wey dem try fix na im don cause plenty wahala wey dey ground grin..Maybe na until dem fix the one wey moto go stop customer for kidnappers hand na im dem go finally rest..

To playing down customer complaints as one in hundreds..

Honestly, it's sad..the fact that someone as enlightened and well travelled as Radu isn't even intelligent enough to take us for a proper ride is sadder.. The more she talks, the sillier she sounds..

Meeen - too many horror stories. This is not a one off, it is systemic.

I have to thank sukkot for taking the bull by the horns, even if the self-servicer was only looking for cruise

I had been meaning to create a thread and kept on postponing.

At the very least na caveat emptor.

I would have spent much less fixing my cars issues.

My perspective - its a staffing issue. The guy who spilled superglue on my seat was thoroughly lackadaisical.

System is back up. Please try again.

If there is something to learn from all this, it is to ensure you can speak to the boss, and message the boss at will before handing over your vehicle. All this mail matter is just bullshit!

Buy a line, ask for their individual numbers and message or call them. You can discard the line after issues have been solved.

The pain is really hurting you and you are lashing out.
I don't take any pleasure in any of your pain, I understand your vehicles and the potential abuse they may have undergone prior to taking them to the shop. If there was nothing wrong in the first place you wouldn't have gone to her shop.
You were not there for service or minor repair, it was a major, ork to different components. They may have failed to do proper repairs,.
I can imagine you not getting the desired result based on how you communicate but all these is for you to fix.
