Default Jeep Service Perth

Hi all

I have a 2016 Jeep GC and until now have been getting it serviced by John Hughes in Perth.

Aside from being expensive, I have been experiencing some pretty average service in terms of them stating things need to be replaced before failure - radiator was the latest - and then being quoted ridiculous amounts of money for repair. When I took it to an independent repairer (radiator) I ended up driving another 20,000km and then got it replaced for half the cost being quoted by John Hughes group.

Anyway, does anyone have any recommendations for a good mechanic for scheduled service? Ideally in the city or close to.

Thanks

We are lucky in Perth to have so many Jeep enthusiasts who also run businesses catering for our Jeeps but you may struggle finding one close to the CBD.
SBR Offroad and Kraft Motorsport (formerly Jeepkraft) are both located in Wangara.
There's 4 Wheel Drive USA in Bayswater.
Aztech 4x4 in Rivervale have a great reputation with the Jeep crowd - especially with the 'station wagon' models.
Jeeep Autoworx in Malaga.
Jeeparts and service in Wanneroo.
And probably a few others I have missed

Many have had the same experience with John Hughes. Up-selling unnecessary services, finding faults that do not exist and of course, charging an arm and a leg for a very ordinary service.

Check this thread as an example:
