I felt the auto transport co. Agape did a great job but the carrier they assigned (Safe Transporters Inc.) did an awful job. My 2006 BMW was the first car at the bottom of the carrier. It took the transporter about 6 days from their original scheduled pick up date to actually pick up my car. The main issue was that my car arrived damaged. My sunroof was smashed in and there was some type of fluid leaked all over my car. It also looked like someone used a brillo pad on the hood of my car. Safe Transporters just wanted me to take $400.00 off the shipping cost and just get the sunroof fixed. After days of research and getting the run around from Safe Transporters, Agape gave me the insurance info from Safe Transporters. After another half a dozen phone calls I finally got through to their auto insurance. Safe Transporters auto insurance paid for all the damages in full which turned out to be over 3K to fix. All I can say is that if you plan to ship your car on an open carrier I would try to ensure it is on the top row.

We want to offer our most sincere apology to Ms. Bethanie Healey again about the damage done to her vehicle. She has every right to be upset about this carrier. They were indeed late and this was due to mechanical issues; however, Safe Transporters neglected to keep Ms. Healey and Agape informed of their status. This problem has been addressed with the management of Safe Transporters. It is our responsibility to make sure that all carriers have adequate insurance to cover any damage that may occur. Sometimes the process in dealing with insurance companies can take longer than we like. This is true for private and commercial insurance claims. We are pleased to hear that the claim process, once started, was finalized quickly and that payment was paid to you promptly. Again we are sorry about the experience you had with the carrier. Thank you so much for recognizing that the carriers service and Agapes service are separate. We appreciate you mentioning we did a great job for you.
