“DO NOT USE. Such a scam and a waste of money, failed the smallest reasons just to get called out again, no thanks going elsewhere. Guy came out, not friendly, failed the car for silly reasons such as windscreen wipers not working, which they work very well the car was just dirty at the time and the steering wheel not in good condition even though it is in great condition.”

“Warning: please reconsider using ASAP Roadworthys to carry out your safety inspections. I recently trusted ASAP to complete an inspection of a 7m boat trailer carrying our new 6.3m fiberglass boat. Inspection was carried out on a Saturday at the boat ramp in Brisbane’s north side whilst the boat was out on a water test. After 10min onsite (most of this time was spent adjusting a wheel bearing) the trailer was signed off as being compliant. We purchased the boat and immediately drove home to the Sunshine Coast. When we got home and unhitched the trailer the boat suddenly started rolling away on a collision course with our shed and parked vehicle. After a mad scramble to chock the boat we inspected it further to see why the brake was not holding. We soon realized the following - no brake fluid. - A leaking brake caliper. - A caliper was seized onto the rotor. - No brake pads, only rusted brake pad backings. - One of the brake pistons had melted onto the brake backing pads, resulting in one of the brakes permanently being locked on. - All bearings need replacing with one just about completely seized All I can say is, thank goodness there was heavy traffic on the drive back to the Sunshine Coast. This ensures that we could not drive at the 110km speed limit. Thank god we didn’t have to pull up suddenly. And thank god my young children were not with us at the time. I have lodged a complaint with ASAP’s internal complaints resolutions team as they will not allow you to speak to a manager. Likewise they will not allow you to speak to someone from the resolutions team. Everything needs to be done by email. And they take a minimum of 10 business days to get back to you after making a complaint. Firstly, if a roadworthy company needs to have a “resolutions team” this leads me to think that they have a large number of complaints coming through. This should set anyones alarm bells off! ASAP Roadworthys do not believe there is an issue with their examiners inspection of our trailer. They even had the hide to comment that the faults were not there at the time of the inspection and could not have been inspected by the examiner. Firstly, the examiner had the wheel off the trailer, the same wheel where the brake caliper was leaking. He also didn’t have the boat on the trailer therefore had no obstructions to view the trailer. By engaging the trailer handbrake you can visually see movement of the brake pads, this should have been sighted as part of the inspection, it was clear that the handbrake application was not adjusting the brake pads therefore indicating the brakes are not functional. Lastly if he had of checked the brake fluid reservoir he would have seen no brake fluid. The negligence from ASAP Roadworthys is overwhelming. Needless to say, they are very lucky that there was not a major accident on the Bruce Highway northbound after a 2ton 7m boat/trailer roll over. On the higher end of the roadworthy scale at $165, I was expecting a thorough inspection. As a consumer you take a roadworthy inspection to be gospel. You put your trust in a company to ensure what you are driving/ towing is safe, not only for you but also for the community on the roads. Needless to say I have referred this matter to QLD department of transport for their review. If you are thinking of using ASAP roadworthys, I urge you to reconsider. Your life depends on it!”

“WARNING Do not use for your caravan for a gas certificate unless you know it will pass already. ASAP do not fix things, they tell you to get another gas fitter who is actually qualified to do it, then you are up for another $160 plus repairs. The Gas Man does everything, fixes and does the certificate in one go.”

“DON'T DO IT! defected on things just to get a second call out fee when they are overpriced already. We were lied to by reception staff and although it passed after us spending alot of money (that actually didn't need to be spent), we still haven't got the RW certificate! Not happy customers and would recommend everyone stick clear of ASAP roadworthys”

“I booked and paid up front for a mobile roadworthy, I had to call the office 8 times to enquire when my mechanic was going to be arriving .. I was told on the last phone call after I sat at home all day waiting that he had been to my house already and tried to call me on the phone but I didn’t answer ( typo on one digit in my phone number ) so he just left !! Didn’t bother to knock on the door / ring the bell or even get out of the car !! I called the two girls back in the office (who were absolutely of zero assistance ) who basically implied it was my fault as my address was correct but there was a wrong digit in my phone number !!! I still have not been reimbursed for this terrible service and will be taking it further !!! DO NOT USE THIS BUSINESS ! Extremely unprofessional!”

“I bought a car with an ASAP safety certificate. Shortly after, I had mechanics check it and question how it even passed. This was confirmed when I paid for another ASAP safety certificate and it didn't pass because it didn't have a mod plate. Despite it passing the first time. When I complained they asked me to pay more money and they would send someone else out to check it. They don't take any responsibility for their mechanics as they're just contractors. I wouldn't buy a car with an ASAP safety certificate nor would I pay them to do another.”

“Nightmare experience! Do NOT recommend using this company! They take your money upfront and then don't perform the services promised & overcharge on govt fees. Not licenced to perform repairs which is what we requested when booking the services. Won’t refund for services not provided. Will NEVER use again.”
