Having them repair the cluster rather than having to purchase a new cluster from the dealer saved me more than $1,400 in correcting the problem. I would not hesitate to use them again and highly recommend Southern Electronics for this type of repair.
"Dear Mr. [Member Name Removed] I am very sorry you were unhappy with this work done 2 years ago. But since this is the first time you brought it to my attention it was done two years ago it is difficult to remember all the discussions with you about the repair. My technician does remember you and he said your repair was on a 15 year old car radio model that was a very unreliable type of radio and even the Ford factory stopped supporting. That model was built with inferior parts that dry up with age and fail. However, I want to make sure you are satisfied and will be glad to look at the repair again or refund your money. My cell is 1-804-441-2030. Please call weekdays so I can discuss with you."
I called several days later and spoke to the tech who walked me through several diagnostics. The synopsis was that it was not necessary to send them my radio for a thorough diagnostic and repair. The problem was in a separate amplification unit that would need to be replaced.
Since, I am 1000 miles from their location, having them do it was impractical. The Tech talked me through the process and spent more time than I would have expected explaining where to find the information in the Vehicle Service Tech manual and then gave me some pointers.
Bottom line: The organization went out of its way to be helpful, even though I was not spending any money with them at this time.
If and when the need arises to have a repair done on my radio unit, I would definitely send it to them for diagnosis and repair.
In any case, my radio was returned and worked as before. After replacing the speakers I now have a functioning radio system. Thanks to Southern Radio for steering me to the true cause of the problem.
I have a factory radio/cd player/tape player. A button fell off the radio and the tape player is eating tapes. Also, the cd is skipping a bunch (probably just a dirtly lens).I brought it to Southern Electronics. I think the person who helped me was one of the technicians. He was confident that they could fix the problem and he went to the back to get a price and date. He came back just in a minute with a price and let me know that it would be done in two days. He also asked me if I wanted the radio mailed back to me so i did not have to pick it up. I asked him and quot;How would i get it back in?and quot; He went to the car with me, took out the radio, and showed me how i could put it back in. It was farily simple, so i told them they could ship it back to me as I live across town.
My radio arrived repaired a few days later, i installed it like he showed me, and everything works.
I could have purchased and installed a non-factory radio for about the same price, less if i wanted elcheapo radio, but i like my factory radio in the car.
