Hi, I'm Alex in Toronto. Do you offer tyre checks on Saturdays?
Hi Alex. We offer tyre checks and open on Saturday mornings. Which time would you prefer?
Early in the morning, please. Could you send a reminder before the visit?
I've noted your request. Our team will confirm the appointment here and arrange the reminder you asked for.

The service desk is helping a driver while messages arrive: "Do you change tyres?", "Can I come on Saturday?", "Is my car ready?" Social media automation for auto repair shops with Kwamle Media answers routine service questions and gathers appointment requests for your team.

Give it the services you offer and your opening hours. Staff confirm visits, check a car's progress with the workshop and send the customer an answer. Set up reminders separately for customers who have asked to receive them.

How it works

  1. Connect your accounts and prepare routine answers

    Connect your centre's own business accounts through each platform's official login or API. Add saved answers for your service list and opening hours. In AI Studio, set your tone and instructions for routine questions, including what to say when a service needs a staff check.

  2. Collect the appointment request

    In the flow builder, add an Ask Question step for each detail: the driver's name, car model, service and preferred day and time. The steps save the answers. Pass the request to the unified inbox for staff to check their own schedule and confirm the appointment.

  3. Pass car status questions to a person

    Set a rule that questions such as "Is my car ready?" need a person. Use team assignment and departments to route the chat to the service adviser responsible. They check with the workshop, take over the conversation and reply with verified details. The bot stays quiet in that chat.

  4. Prepare reminders after confirmation

    After staff confirm the visit, set up a broadcast campaign or recurring notification for customers who requested reminders. Your team chooses the message and timing. Use the confirmed details, check the channel's consent and messaging rules for each send, and exclude anyone who asked to stop. A request does not start a reminder automatically.

  5. Keep changes with the right teammate

    A driver may need to move an appointment or ask about extra work. Assign the conversation to reception or the service adviser in the unified inbox. They can read the earlier messages and continue the reply in the same thread. Keep changes with the person who can check and confirm them.

Who it is for

For teams that receive service enquiries, appointment requests and questions about cars already in the workshop.

  • Independent garages answer routine questions about servicing and opening hours.
  • Tyre and wheel centres collect the requested service and preferred visit time for staff to confirm.
  • Body repair shops route questions about work in progress to the person handling the repair.
  • Service centres with several departments assign appointment requests to reception and status questions to the appropriate adviser.

Questions about automation for car service centres

What can social media automation for auto repair shops handle?

It can answer from your service and opening-hour details, collect appointment requests and support reminders customers agreed to receive. Your team confirms appointments, answers questions about a car's progress and handles changes through the unified inbox.

Does it reserve a service appointment automatically?

No. The flow collects a request; your team checks availability in its own schedule and confirms the time with the driver. A preferred day and time remain a request until staff confirm them. The flow does not manage your workshop calendar.

Can it tell a customer whether their car is ready?

A person on your team answers that. The service adviser checks progress with the workshop and replies in the chat. This workflow does not automatically track repairs or know when a car is ready. Tell the bot to hand these questions to staff.

Can I send appointment or service reminders?

Yes, through broadcast campaigns or recurring notifications where the channel permits them. Send only to customers who have already contacted you and agreed to those reminders. Staff choose when to send based on confirmed information and leave out anyone who opts out. See follow-up messages and reminders.

What happens when a driver messages after closing?

The bot can answer from the service details and opening hours you supplied and collect an appointment request. Tell the driver that your team will review it and confirm the time. A question about a car already in the workshop waits for a person to check and answer.
