Customer Expectations and Your Duty of Care
3. Active customer contact
Customer Expectations
Your Duty of Care – and Consequences
of Getting It Wrong
–
A follow-up call to make sure that they
are completely satisfied with the vehicle
– and immediate resolution of any
problems
–
Any problems must be resolved fully
–
Reminders for service
–
Word these carefully – you can only
estimate when a customer will need a
service, depending on mileage
–
Information on special offers that would
be of benefit to them, based on
knowledge of them
–
Again, give correct technical advice that
does not oversell the need

4. Appointment scheduling service
Customer Expectations
Your Duty of Care – and Consequences
of Getting It Wrong
–
Immediate and welcoming response on
the phone (including return call if the
department is busy)
–
–
Flexible appointments (morning or
afternoon, for example)
–
–
Good advice over the phone (the likely
extent of the work correctly identified)
–
Do not state the cause of a symptom,
or the work needed to correct it, until
the vehicle has been tested by a
qualified person in the dealership (the
customer may at the very least refuse
to pay for additional work)
–
No surprises (sensible warning of
possible further work after inspection of
problems)
–
Only warn that work is possible, not
definite, until the vehicle has been
tested and inspected by a qualified
person
–
Correct information on Courtesy
Services (promises that will be kept)
–
Do not promise services that may not
be available – a customer might, in
extreme cases, claim for such things as
a missed business meeting

unsafe mountings for safety harnesses)

This must be explained clearly and in

item that you originally said was
covered by warranty

price, including parts, labour and taxes,
and agreement before going ahead

You must explain the total price – or the

extras

A promise of further contact (and when)
if extra work is found, with agreement
of extra fixed price and timescales
before that work is done

Never go ahead with work that has not
been authorised by the customer – and

can only sign for it when they collect
the vehicle

Work that goes ahead only if the repair
order is signed by the customer
