FOXY Newsdesk Women encouraged to identify female-friendly garages
Ladies who have enjoyed excellent service from a female-friendly garage may want to record their satisfaction in a new online survey.
Motor Codes has urged drivers to log onto their website and let them know about their experiences at outlets that have signed up to the industry code of practice.
This set of guidelines was launched in a bid to help people identify good garages where they know they will receive excellent customer service.
In excess of 5,000 businesses have signed up to the initiative. At the moment the Office of Fair Trading is assessing the programme to ascertain whether it qualifies for the Consumer Codes Approval Scheme.
Motor Codes director Chris Mason commented: "We genuinely want to know how you have been dealt with by a garage that belongs to the Motor Industry Code of Practice for Service and Repair."
He added the information would help to raise standards.
Meanwhile, garages identified as being female-friendly agree not to patronise customers and to only carry out work that is necessary.
