EXTREMELY POOR SERVICE> The first time I was there I purchased an alarm for my wifes car and everything was good, other than a little pricey. The next year I took my boat there and purchased speakers and the accessories to go with it....and had them install it. Again other than a little pricey everything was good. Then this year my son purchased anew to him truck and it came with an alarm system. Right after he buys the truck the alarm screws up so I call Airdrie Auto Trends to see if they can take a look. (assuming that I am a valued customer after having spend a few thousand dollars there). I was told they couldnt look at it because if it was towed in they couldnt work on it outside....funny thats where they did a bunch of the work on my boat? Then they told me that it was probably the starter.....for F##Ks sake does this guy think he the only one that has spent time under a hood!! Then he just outright tells me that he cant help me! WOW!!! Some of the other shops in town all comment about this guy and how he does business...always there when you want to buy something but after that your on your own! Hes has made his last penny off me....I will drive to Calgary to get any audio or alarm work done from this point forward. So much for trying to support local business!! UPDATE.......One phone call to The Car Salon on 32nd ave. and when they found out that we couldnt move the truck they sent out a service guy to fix the "ignition kill switch" that car alarms have. That is what good service looks like!

One word - TERRIBLE. I recently went into Airdrie Auto Trends for an estimate to have oracle demon eyes installed on my headlights and fog lights, plus change to new bulbs and refresh the housings on the headlights and fogs. After explaining to Jon, the arrogant and unhelpful owner on what Id like done, he flat out refused to do the work on the fog lights (involving changing from glass to lexan on the housing, a simple process for a guy with a properly out fitted shop and tools) stating "We dont do that." Ok, fine. I was not impressed, but still willing to proceed with the rest of the work. I then asked him what the warranty was for the headlights after the oracle kit was installed. The answer? No warranty. After staring at him blankly, and then explaining that once he takes the car into the shops possession, bakes the headlights (which have no condensation currently) and installs the oracles some warranty would be necessary in the case of condensation in the future, he then said that he takes no responsibility for the oem seal. He then said that it seemed like I didnt want to do business with him. And he was right. About one thing at least. STAY FAR AWAY. Spend your money somewhere that people actually care about you, your ride and their own reputation.

Share review Embed review Edit review 1.0 star rating 3/6/2017 I bought headlights from this scammer and I went to put them in and they are cheap China junk that will not fit. I went to ask him about them he said I was installing them wrong. I told him why they would not fit and he didnt seem to believe me. I brought the light in with the original and showed him and he said interesting. i ask if he would take it back or at least credit me the cost to a different set he refused. he said it is a conversion kit and needs some modifying. I ask how and he tells me he would have to put it in an oven to take the glass off and re position it. I said OK then do that but he said that I would have to pay for that. I have been a parts man all my life and I have never had to have something like that done to any aftermarket headlights to make them fit. Maybe he should advertise that or at least tell you before you buy them.

I bought a HID system from this vendor and am most disappointed. The installation job was terrible. Light bulb was loose and cracked only after a few months. Went back for a replacement bulb and was confronted with resistance. Vendor even questioned if I had installed the bulb correctly when he did the job himself. When I finally got a replacement bulb, he threatened it would be the last replacement. When I installed the bulb, I discovered he didnt even replace it with the same color temperature. The other bulb is out now. I have been told by another vendor theres definitely something wrong with the installation. I am going to rip out the whole installation and replace it with something else. This install was a waste of money. The vendor was unhelpful and I would never return.

Jon is a true pro. On top of always providing top quality service, he really knows everything that is automotive electronics. After my front speakers stopped working on my brand new WRX and the dealership serviced the car 5 times over 14 weeks and never fixed it (new amp, speakers, head unit, you name it). Finally they told me I had to have my remote starter and SmartStart module removed for them to solve the problem. I called Jon and he had me bring the car in right away. It took Jon a whole 35 seconds to fix the problem!!!!! He immediately noticed a strange pop from the factory sub and realize there was a short in the connector. He fixed the connector and MAGIC I had my sound back. I wont go anywhere else for starters, audio and custom. Thanks Jon!!!!

I had a remote starter supplied and installed by Airdrie Auto Trends this past week and I want to leave positive feedback for the awesome job they did. Not only was Jons quote $80 cheaper than the Visions up the road, he actually lowered the price almost another $30 when I paid, as he was training a new employee that day and the job took a tad longer than he figured it should have. I couldnt believe it! I saved over $100 by choosing Airdrie Auto Trends... Jon really knows his stuff and was a pleasure to deal with. I would certainly recommend his service to everyone!

One of the best install place around in airdrie. Very friendly and courteous. I had a friend doing a sub/amp install and apparently they couldnt get it to start. I went to airdrie auto trends to a new amp wire. While we were talking the person at the front asked me about the issue and within a minute he was out checking the amp for me with his meter. Found the problem and also told me how to fix it. I am definitely coming back for my any other car needs here. Honest shops are very hard to find and this is definitely one of them and so are their prices.

Ive been taking all my vehicles to Jon since shortly after he opened in 2009. He has always provided me with quality service and helpful advice. I have recommended Airdrie Auto Trends to a lot of my friends as well and they have come away with positive experiences and good things to say about Jon and his workmanship. I would never think about taking my vehicle elsewhere and would highly recommend Airdrie Auto Trends to anyone whos looking for top quality service and products.
