Resolution
Having been disappointed by my local Audi dealership, I came to LKQ Electriq with a disappointed view of specialist garages. I’m pleased to say my experience of LKQ Electriq and, in particular, my interactions with Kayleigh have restored my confidence. Without doubt I will return to LKQ Electriq in future for my Audi needs.
Thank you!
