Staff insisted on unnecessary and expensive rewiring services.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We understand not every recommendation will align with what a customer initially wants done, but at JS Sound Shop we take pride in doing installations the correct way rather than simply taking a job for the sake of making a sale. When a vehicle comes in with existing aftermarket wiring or previous audio work, our team evaluates the entire system before adding more equipment. In many cases, recommending a rewire is not because the system β€˜doesn’t work,’ but because hidden issues, improper installation methods, weak connection points, or aged wiring can create future problems that are difficult to diagnose once additional equipment is added. Our goal is long-term reliability, safety, and performance β€” not temporary results. We respect that every customer has the right to choose what they are comfortable with, and there was absolutely no obligation to move forward with our recommendation.

The shop caused damage to a previously working car speaker.

Hi Omar, we're sorry to hear you feel this way about your experience. We do want to clarify that before the vehicle was even pulled into the bay or serviced, we made you aware that the rear driver-side speaker was not producing sound. We believed it was important to be transparent about what we found before beginning any work on the front passenger speaker replacement. At no point was any additional issue created during the service. In many cases, existing speaker failures become more noticeable once another speaker is repaired and the audio balance changes. Our intention was simply to be upfront and honest about the condition of the system before proceeding. We take pride in our professionalism and transparency with every customer, and we appreciate your feedback. If you would like, we are still more than willing to inspect the system with you and help point you in the right direction.
