Bought a car from Arnold Clark Liverpool and immediately developed a safety defect. Can’t get it sorted for a month so as you can imagine I now have no confidence in the car. I want to return the car as it’s still well within the return period but they aren’t having it at all. They are adamant that they will repair it but don’t understand that I’m not interested in that due to lost confidence. The arrogance of the manager is staggering and it seems that 3rd reich style management is alive and well at Arnold Clark Liverpool.

Service was amazing, I got talked through everything before hand the whole process was fast and easy! I will definitely return! Great experience and they even took my old car! The person I dealt with moorcroft amazing service from him!

Took my car to Arnold Clark as it was bought with the service plan including a free MOT after a year. They quoted me £350 for work I had done elsewhere for £100. Took it back to Arnold Clark for re-MOT and they charged me £49 on top of £27 for re-mot for a fail that they didn't even quote me for at the original MOT!!!! Spiteful because I had my work done elsewhere and got money out of me in a different way! Do not use Arnold Clark for service or MOT!!

Took out a service plan with my car, November 2015 had my first service the mechanics advised me to take my car to ford as it was still under warranty informing me my cars gearbox needed work and a cylinder was leaking, ford Checked my car out and found no problem with the gearbox or cylinder but there was a sizeable hole in a hose which was leaking fluid all over the engine. Ford then informed me this could cause my engine to blow at any time,

My first experience with Arnold Clark began in may of 2015. Unfortunately the first car that I purchased had to be returned a total of five times with various faults. I had only had the car for a month. I rejected the vehicle and was able to choose another which so far has been perfect and fault free. The sales team are excellent obviously because they want your business. The service department are totally diabolical the receptionist's on the service department are truly fantastic polite and courteous. However the service department manager is the most arrogant I'll mannered person that I have ever had the misfortune to deal with. This man has zero customer service skills. Because I have had to visit the service department so frequently with the afore mentioned vehicle I was able to talk with other Arnold Clark customers and the general opinion is as I have stated excellent sales team let down by very very poor after sales. Until they totally overhaul their service department I fear that many many more customers will have the same misfortunes.

I bought Vauxhall corsa 1.4 of Liverpool Arnold Clark told me be ready Wen finance all paid on the Thursday only thing to be paid was the amount difference which I had when I turned up on the Thursday they said can't take car because on documents there was my car to trade in! (Which I stated wasn't doing few days earlier). After staff telling me that it be sorted by 9-10 on Friday and claiming it's the finance paper work thy wrong which I contacted turns out it's not! Friday come an general manager contacted me with terrible attitude saying that I was putting my car in and wouldn't let me explain situation just kept talking over me. I then received a voice mail ! With him talking in back ground about me! Then he hung up. He claimed I had stated I was putting car in and never changed my mind! But informed me that I never had my spare key because it was in London! How did he know this if I never had conversation about taken car off as spare key was in London!!!!! His attitude was vile for a manager! And I have now put a complaint in and am trying to get finance to remove fund from them. Don't buy car from there!

All i can say is negative things about this company, from the sales staff, to the receptionist. nobody has a clue what they are doing. Nobody passes on messages, nobody rings back, nobody does what they said they would do. I have never come accross a company which offers such poor customer service, and made SO MANY mistakes with our car purchase. NEVER AGAIN.

They never answer the phone.
gave up

I have always had excellent service at arnold clark sefton street and will not go anywhere else, they collect and deliver your car for you and always give it a wash and hoover out before bringing it back and it doesnt cost the earth!!

Arnold Clark, Liverpool.

I would just like to say the reason I gave a One Star rating was because I could not give a Zero Star.
Had an accident with my car and took it to Arnold Clark Liverpool to be repaired and also to have my second service done. The car was not repaired correctly so had to be taken back for a so called one hour repair. 7 hours later I was I told that there was good news and also bad news. The good news was my car was road worthy and the bad news was that Arnold Clark could not do anything more for me. I paid just under £2000 for the repairs. After an hour or so of arguing Arnold Clark finally acknowledged their short falls and agreed for another garage within Arnold Clark to sort it out. It was then that I noticed that they had not even painted the bumper correctly and that there were chips in the paintwork, the foam was also falling out of the bumper on top of a gap of at least one inch between the bonnet and bumper. A few days later I received another call from Arnold Clark Liverpool informing me that the car was ready. On inspecting the car, I noticed that they had stripped the paintwork down to bare metal on three parts of my car. They again acknowledged this and agreed to correct it. No apology was given.
Not only did it take three attempts to fix the car, it also took them 17.5 days. I had to take additional holidays for all this.
As far as any complaint goes, you will be wasting your time. The organisation of Arnold Clark is not interested. All I have been offered as a goodwill gesture is £78.53. What a joke. I will not accept this at all.

If you are after any free advice, avoid Arnold Clark. You only have to look at the forums to see how unprofessional they are.

All I will say after my experiences with Arnold Clarke is...avoid like the plague if you are buying a used car from them. I won't bore everyone with the details, just heed my warning! It's going to take me a while to clear the debts caused by my faulty vehicle!
