Fixd scanner

I love this. It’s so awesome. It gave me things that were wrong with my car. I didn’t even know about because there was no check engine light. It gave me great results, telling me what I needed to fix. and what problems were going on with the vehicle

Scam

Thought this was a good idea until they overcharged me $99 and refused to refund me. Their customer service is all automated responses, and they basically send the same answer, regardless of what you say. Avoid this app and find better alternatives.

Quits working

Said needed to update the app but it does not work. Had to delete and when tried to update it does not work. Says need to update. Cannot download now because cannot update. Useless will have to go with a more reliable service.

Vorsicht abofalle

Vorsicht abofalle versteckt wollen dann einfach 115,65 Dollar abbuchen vom Paypal oder vom Konto würde das nicht weiter empfehlen höchste vorsicht

Sent debit card into fraud protection

The app pretty much tells you exactly what your dashboard relays, nothing new but it attempted to make a 120$ charge to my debit card and it got fraud detected so I’ve been having to go without my debit card all week. Honestly not worth it, I already paid for the product why continue to try to take money away from paying customers I’ll never understand

Beware

The app attempts to bill my bank without me paying for the subscription. Fortunately, my bank detects this scam and blocks the payment. I had to delete the app from my phone and will be throwing the port reader in the trash.

Bought to buy used car, kept to manage existing high mileage cars

Our teen suddenly needed a new car in a family that never buys used. FIXD gave us peace of mind as we shopped. Once we added to our fleet, we now have 2 high-mileage cars we want to keep running. FIXD helps us keep tabs on vehicle health and understand the seriousness of any errors that come up.

Not happy

Took two or so weeks to arrive, also tried to charge $99.99 twice! Thankfully did not go thru but it wasn’t even two weeks after I had the damn thing not real happy.

Subscriptions

I bought this off of Amazon years ago. It’s worked all this time with no issues. I now have to pay a yearly subscription that most mechanic shops do for free now. Y’all SUCK

Shady Business

Wish I had read through all of these reviews. Advertised as being able to use this tool for free. Got it in the mail, a week later I’m being charged $109. Did not approve this charge. Very deceiving business!

Never received code to operate

This app is as piece of junk! Every time it asked for email to get this app going, it needs a code. I never receive an email, ever! Ive checked my junk mail folder, or any of my inbox folders.. I’ve been doing it for the last two month, nothing.. Can’t reach any customer service .. I ended up trashing the scanner. Save yourself the money, get a real automotive scanner

Money & Time Saver

I absolutely love this little scanner. I have been using it since it first came out many years ago & it has saved me so much time & money. It has accurately diagnosed majority of the issues with my cars & takes away the risk of being ripped off by shady mechanics who like to take advantage of females that are not very car savvy. Because of this scanner I have learnt so much about cars & how to repair them & I have not been to a mechanic for years. The only negative is that I am from Australia so I can’t use the feature that finds local mechanics and that now many functions that I used to use with my standard account now require premium account status to use them, which is out of my reach financially. Would have been nice to have been able to keep them as a reward for my loyalty over the years. It’s not as thorough as the scan that a professional scan tool does but it still gets the job done, finds the problems & gives you all the info you need to do repairs. But overall, the actual scanner & its functions are really helpful, have always been accurate & over the years it has saved me so much money & time that would have otherwise been wasted on car repairs through mechanics. A +++++

Buyer beware

I purchased the plug in tool for $20, and when I tried it out, it seems like a great too. However, I was alerted to a $99 charge about a week later. I never agreed to a subscription and thankfully my bank flagged as fraud. Very deceptive advertising and sales from the BBB reviews I’ve seen. Too bad. They have a decent product and are ruining their reputation with that nonsense.

Don’t waste your money

Doesn’t work own 8 vehicles it wouldn’t scan and read one of them.

Love it

Great product. Ready to use and simple to understand. It has helped me tremendously and saved tons of money!

Useful tool

Recently was shopping for used vehicle and was able to screen for actuve codes. Device allowed me to see if seller had recently deleted codes to hide problems. Good info when purchasing vehicle.

Thieves

I took the free trial and cancelled the same day I started it and every day since then, they’ve been trying to charge my card $99. I just got paid, it’s PAST my free trial date, and they still took my money. I’m highly disappointed and frustrated. Nobody told y’all to touch my money!!!!

Over Charges

They literally tried to charge me $108 twice after I purchased the scanner for $20 I’m so happy I didn’t pay in a regular way and thankfully my card keeps declining!!!

Update they just tried to charge me $108 again

I HATE subscriptions!

IDK if it’s any good , or not. I bought one YEARS ago for peanuts and got no instructions so I eventually threw it away. I don’t think it wa s a subscription in those days. It shouldn’t be now. You buy it to do something and you should be able to do it without a stupid subscription. Thieves!!

Works great

Honestly it works, I get codes that I’ll never get from advance autos I seen all the stuff wrong with my car and what the codes mean and I didn’t get the premium that’s how good it is.
