All complaints must be received with (5) business days after the date of the event.
- There will be no refund when the AC (air conditioning fails). Sometimes we will give credit, all depends on the situation.
We've learned - Vehicles are machines and as such, even though we practice preventative maintenance we can’t promise AC will always work well in vehicles 100% of the time. If AC doesn’t work or doesn’t work properly stay calm and you will still have a wonderful day. Of course we all want AC and most of the time AC works in all vehicles. AC in large vehicles, 6 passenger and higher, well it's another story. We've learned that by opening the front windows and opening back windows just a bit to circulate air, we can still transport guests with minimal discomfort – with a breeze generated from the open front windows. AC always seems to work great in our Sedans, Vans and SUVs. However - in 6 passenger limousine and larger vehicles - including coach/buses- AC at times present problems. Everyone’s body temperature goes up a little on wine tour days as they are usually consuming alcohol…so make sure you drink water before leaving home and you'll stay cooler no matter what!. When the door opens on a limo or bus, the vehicle can take 5 to 7 minutes to cool down again. A fan can stop blowing the cool air or heat at any time. This is a machine part. On high humidity days, very warm days the fan over works and then stops. Same with new or old AC fans...they over heat and then stop working. On occasion a Limo goes over a pot hole which causes a fuse to loosen and the AC stops. Most of the time….AC will go back on a little while later. There is no cash refund when AC doesn't work properly. Air conditiong should be turned off when limo is idling. Sometimes a client demands that the driver keep the AC on while idling 5 minutes. When we do this….most often the compressor dies and then we are without AC the rest of the day and night. The compressor can break on a new vehicle just as easy as on an older vehicle. AC is a never ending problem for limo and bus companies and that’s why we talk about it up front!
No matter what preventative maintenance we do, AC is unpredictable and when problems occur, we ask driver and passengers to stay calm. When AC stops working, drivers get all upset as well as passengers. Drivers will open both front windows… all the way… to allow maximum breeze to circulate through to the back to make everyone as comfortable as possible. In this situation, back windows should also be opened no more than 1 in. so that air is pulled from front windows and circulates better. Very rarely does AC fail but when it does......If everyone stays calm……you’ll feel the breeze from the driver’s windows. No one can predict when AC will fail. On most wine tour days, there usually isn’t a replacement limo available. If there is…..we most certainly try to exchange limos….if time and distance permits.
On high temperature days where humidity is also high....AC system gets over worked and often completely stops working. Leaks in the system can occur at any time in new and older vehicles. When clients first enter a limo, they are anxious and click all buttons. Quite often the problem is that the heat button is pressed instead of AC. Sometimes driver can add coolant to AC and that does the trick - sometimes it doesn't. AC is the one aspect of the limo/bus business that is a problem every year during warm weather for all transportation companies. After 20 years of experience, we feel it is most important to address the AC problems up front. When everyone stays calm, you’ll feel the heat much less… than when you let yourself get angry and upset. Stay calm and before you know it, you’ll be at your destination!
REFUNDS - Vehicles leave main office with AC (or heat) working. After vehicle accepted & used…Refunds, if and when justified, are given only in form of service credits. Cash refunds are not given when something goes wrong and the AC or heat ceases to function. As a courtesy to let passengers know the company understands, Roadmaster Limousine and Car Service and most other companies give courtesy service credits when deemed appropriate. If we don't show up for service - a cash refund is justified. If something happens and we must end service, Yes a partial cash refund would be justified. Certain types of problems deserve a refund, if and when justified, refunds are only given in form of service credits. We want our passengers happy. We work with people, machines, traffic and weather. We do proper maintenance but parts/machines do break and we never know when. Often we cannot repair heat or AC problem until next day. We consider timeliness and safety in traveling - the most important issues. It is not feasible to keep an extra limo in the garage just in case something goes wrong or ceases to function in a vehicle. Sometimes, on the way to a pick up or during service, AC or something else can cease to work. We are not happy when a mechanical part doesn't work properly. Vehicles are machines and machines can develop problems at any time. However, we've realized customers much happier when we show up instead of cancelling because something happened to AC.
