I brought my car in for service to fix a waranteed problem with the remote starter FOB. It only unlocked the front doors not the back doors. While servicing the vehicle, the computer to start the vehicle was accidentally cleared and it required a Car Dealer to spend 4 hours reprogramming the computer. Even though Long Radio started the vehicle to pull it into the bay, they claimed no responsibility for resetting the ... view morecomputer and stuck me with a $452 invoice.I The car dealer stated that it could absolutely have been caused by them crossing wires. I am now taking the matter to small claims court.

Arrogant and rude - don`t waste your money

If I could give them less than one star, I would. We bought a subwoofer for our vehicle there. Told them exactly the type of vehicle it was and what we were interested in getting. They said that one of them had the exact same vehicle and that a particular subwoofer would fit just fine. We went home, took the old one out and found out that the one they sold us would NOT fit (it required a thinner version that the... view morey didn`t carry). We couldn`t go back that night because they were already closed. We went back early the next morning to take it back and see if they had anything else that fit, but they did not. They refused to give us a refund, only a store credit, even though we only bought it because they assured us it would fit. There is nothing else I need there - I now have a $100 + dollar credit that I will never use. I will also never return and tell as many people as I can how big of jerks these people are.

Bring your business elsewhere

I had an appoint to have a car start installed at Long Radio this morning. Had car stats put in there for 3 previous cars and my family members had used them also. We they must have changed management - because they are not worthy of anyones business. They need to take customer service classes and stop being rude and arrogrant. After some unpleasant phone calls to get an appoint - they act like they are doing you... view more a favor to just talk to you - I arrived at 10 of 9:00 because they told me to bring the car in by 9:00. The lights were on and an arrogrant employee was inside. I wanted up to the door in the snow looking for a drop box and counldn`t find one. The employee saw me and turned his back on me. I tapped on the window and he put up his hands indicating 10 minutes. And the snow was collecting on my hair I motioned ""come one"" and he indicated 10 minutes and turned his back on me. So I got back in my car and decisded that an establishment that is so rude and arrogant does not deserve my business, and drove away.

Great experiences with car starters

I have had 4 remote starters installed, one after removal from a leased car. Their turn-around has been very good and I appreciate the night drop for leaving that car all day. I really like the relay that gets the rear window defroster going at startup too, having it retro-fitted to my wife`s car soon. I would definitely recommend these guys to others.

ONE SATISFIED MOM WITH NEW REMOTE START !!

I had my appointment to have my 4th Remote Starter installed at Long Radio. I was supposed to drop my car off for the day with Brain the store manager on the 7th of January. My Husband made the appointment when he purchased the gift for me before Christmas. Well, when the 7th came along we had a TERIBILE ice storm and my 3 children had school cancelled. I thought I was going to have to miss my appointment :( beca... view moreuse there was no way I could wait for the starter installation with 3 small children. I called Brian and he told me not to worry and to take my time coming in till I felt the roads were safe and when I got there he would drop us all off at the Mall to shop or catch a movie. WOW what great customer service. Needless to say, I got my starter installed, the kids and I were kept entertained at a movie and was picked up at the Mall when they were done:) I cant express my gratitude and appriciation enouph to Brian and his team at Long Radio for their ""over the top service"" and a job well done. I made another appointment to have a heated seat installed in my car while I was there. I highly recommend to others !!!

TAKE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY ELSEWHERE,VERY ARROGANT,WORST SERVICE EVER

I am not sure if it is the owner or not...but I think he is. He is always sitting on the stool as you walk in. I have purchased several things from them and have always paid more than anywhere else. They are terribly arrogant and they do not stand behind what they do. The installers are terrible...they hooked up my Sirius radio antenna incorrectly and claimed they did it right, even though Sirius claims otherwise... view more. Additionally, every other low profile antenna I have seen on a car or truck has been located in the rear towards the back window. They installed mine directly up front where everything and anything can bounce off it. It lasted two weeks and they would not correct it. I recently gave them a third chance to do something about it and they had another smart-ass comment. They do have a decent selection of products but the service is not worth it. Kids that want a great stereo... Call them for info and then buy your stuff elsewhere. I am telling you, they will not treat you right. They act like you owe them something and the arrogance is overwhelming. We work too hard for our money to let punks like this take us for a ride. The guy tries to act like he works for West Coast Customs or something...they are nobodies!!! During most of the year, the parking lot is empty and for a good reason. The only time I have seen more than a few cars in the lot is around Christmas. Please take my advice and spend your money where they will at least correct something if they make a mistake...and not make you wait 4 weeks to have it corrected. Their name says it all...LONG RADIO = LONG WAIT . BUYER BEWARE!!!!!!!!!! I never take the time to do these reviews, but feel so strongly about how badly these guys treat people, that I felt compelled to. The poor guy in front of me also got the run around and they said they was nothing they could do for him either...not for at least 4 weeks...Who has 4 weeks to wait to have a bad install corrected??? Nobody I know.
