I can't say enough good things about this team. They were incredibly responsive and so easy to work with from start to finish. They helped get my car repaired and ready just in time to be my daughter's Christmas gift, which meant more to our family than they probably realize. In a day and age when everything seems to be getting more expensive, I truly felt the price was fair, and the quality of the work was impeccable. The car looked fantastic, and the whole process was smooth and stress-free. I'm really grateful for their professionalism, care, and attention to detail. Highly recommend. read more

I was meeting my friend at AA Auto Collision Center to give her a ride home. This shop had been highly recommended to her for auto body work. I arrived early and thought this would be a good time for me to change out a burnt out brake light, but readily saw that it wasn't that easy to get to. As I approached the office (not even IN the office yet) a kind person who was still eating his lunch said "Can I help you?" I told him I was just here to give a friend a ride home, and asked him if he could tell me how to access my brake light. He said, "Oh I can take care of it for you." I definitely was not expecting that! He brought out a tool, popped the fasteners out, changed the bulb out and put everything back. No Charge. I was so appreciative! You never get this kind of good will service anywhere. I do hope he was able to finish his lunch! read more

Tony was great. As I told him he is a magician. He made a dent and scrapes on the side of my car look nearly invisible. He also gave me a number of options to choose from in terms of the repair. He responded quickly and arrived on time, completing the job more quickly than I would've ever expected. Thank you! read more

My VW Golf R was T boned and needed a new rear quarter panel welded on plus 2 new doors and an alignment. Based on a recommendation I brought my car to AA Auto Collision. They did an excellent repair job and handled all the insurance. Very high quality work and very professional. Highly recommended. read more

I chose this business because it was close to my workplace, and I got lucky. They are good guys and will go the extra mile for their customers. They do great work. They may not be able to get your vehicle in immediately you're probably going to have to wait a month maybe 2 but I personally think its worth the wait. read more

I had the privilege of going to get my car worked on for some cosmetic repairs. I was amazed at the professionalism and work ethic from all these gentlemen. The owner was great as well as Christian Edwards. They called to offer me a good deal to fix something else they noticed while my car was still there, they kept me in the loop and performed quality craftsmanship. If anybody is looking to get their car fixed, this is definitely the place to go! Great prices, integrity and quality worksmanship! read more

Was recently in my first car accident, in which I was rear ended when I was stopped out on 41st Ave. At this point, you of course have to find a place to take your car to get repaired, and I had heard of the guys over here at AA Auto, so took it there. Since I had never gone through this process before (i.e., dealing with insurance companies), was a bit nervous, but the guys at AA Auto handled everything for me. Next morning after the accident, called to get a estimate scheduled, and they just told me to bring it by in a few hours. I pulled up, they took a look at the car, and provided me with an accurate estimate right there on the spot. No waiting for the estimate appointment or anything. Few days later I was able to bring the car in to get the work done. Christian who is working the front desk (among other things) is the man, and took care of EVERYTHING, including dealing with AAA, having them come take a look at the car, and working out all the payment and what not. During the whole process Christian was honest, up front, and clear with everything that was going on. Just picked up my car today, and it's looking back to it's same old self! Wouldn't hesitate to bring my car back here (if the need were to arise, fingers crossed it won't). Don't even look elsewhere, these guys know what they're doing! Thanks AA Auto! read more

The quality is outstanding. The communication is right on. They work in a timely manner. I will always use them.

This place is great. The owner was so attentive and the service was awesome. I would come back here without question.

These gentlemen who work at the shop are awesome! They helped me, a poor college student, remove the huge dent on my driver's side back door, which was caused by a hit and run. They are super friendly and easy to talk to. Down-to-earth guys who don't mind getting their hands dirty. The shop is spotless with two huge friendly German shepherds! God bless these gentlemen because good karma will bring peace and happiness! read more

What a pleasant surprise to know there are still honest and generous humans in the world. I called Christian and asked if he'd take a look after someone hit my car and didn't leave a note. He cleaned it up and gave me an honest and accurate assessment of my options. I would happily encourage everyone in the community to support this business knowing how kind and friendly the crew is. Thank you Christian for making my day! read more

These guys are great! I had someone hit my parked nearly new car causing bumper damage that was too significant to ignore. After getting quotes from other body shops and getting the best estimate from the guys at AA I decided to go with them for the repair. They followed through and did the repair exactly as I had requested for exactly the price they initially quoted (no surprise charges). On top of doing solid work, Christian was willing to do everything he could to make sure I didn't get screwed by the insurance company and was very friendly and communicative throughout the whole process. I would highly recommend! read more

This is my 2nd positive review for this shop. I dented my brand new truck (my fault) and drove it by to get their opinion. They stopped what they were doing and examined the dent and small paint chip. They gave me an estimate but suggested that I drive the truck more before deciding. It wasn't that bad and maybe I'd get used to it (or maybe I'd hit something else in a tight parking lot! ;-). I decided to wait and drove it to the mountains for the weekend. I came back with sap on the roof and hood. They, again, stopped their work and wiped off the sap and gave me more good advice. These guys are good at their work, honest, and friendly. Definitely a good place to go if you need body work/paint done. read more

I have used this shop twice, both times excellent work and really nice guys. Highly recommend.

I just had a dent repaired on my car door & Juan Carlos & his team did a great job! Their quote was $1,000 cheaper than Krafts & I'm very happy with their work-it looks brand new again! Juan and everyone in the shop are super nice & funny too. I would definitely use their shop again. read more

Great guys really helped my Prius and I out today, I wish I could give them more money because with their great rates, it felt like a steal. I can't recommend this place enough, super friendly and great honest advice, never a scam and the cheapest in the area by far, love them and will be going for all of my future repairs. read more

I am AMAZED at the work Juan did on my car in such a short amount of time. I went in expecting to walk out the door losing $800-$1,000 to fix my front bumper for my 2014 Toyota Corolla but Juan was able to fix it within 10 mins for free right in front of me!!!!!! He was so kind and did an AMAZING job and I can't say enough good things about him, Bryan and their shop. If you have any reservations about going to a smaller auto shop to get repairs done please don't be these people are miracle workers and they do so with a smile on their face. Please check them out!!!! Proof is in the pictures. read more

BEST SERVICE ANYWHERE so far. Unfortunately I've needed auto body repairs due to other drivers in town, as well as vandalism AND a manufacturer defect in the paint of one area of my car. Carlos scheduled my appt for only the manufacturer defect repair (other repairs had been done through insurance or side work elsewhere,) and it was a good, healthy WAIT. Worth it! They were extremely friendly and I'll go back if/when an issue arises! You cannot beat Bryan's detail work! Truly gifted! His smile lights up any dark day! Truly a great company to hire for paint/auto body work. Thanks, guys :)!! read more

Brian and the impressive crew gave my 87 Toyota truck a new life. Although my truck was mechanically sound , alas the body was faded and rusting. My Toyota now has a many more years and looks awesome a perfect match on the vintage color. Thank you so very much for the professional work, creative touch, straight forward interaction and fair pricing. You are my go-to auto paint guy !! Natalain read more

These guys are just fantastic. Today was the second time heading over there with my 19 year old's ABUSED vehicle. I asked if they could give me a quick and inexpensive fix...5 minutes and $40 later it was a 75% improvement! And they hassled him enough that he promised he would be more careful - not holding my breath on that one. read more

I was vacationing with four teenagers when I had an issue with my car. It was not safe to drive back home. Christian took me in (it was late afternoon), assessed my car and had the repairs made in no time. He's a very honest man who knows what he's doing. We made it safely back home thanks to the excellent repairs. I am extremely grateful for AA Auto Collision Center. They did great work on my car and provided honest, helpful service. I would highly recommend them! read more

These guys do fantastic work. My Audi was rear-ended and I initially took it to another shop insurance had recommended and they totaled it. I brought it here for a 2nd opinion and am I happy I did. Christian told me he could fix it, worked with my insurance, and two weeks later I had it back in perfect condition. They were communicative, pleasant, and professional. Highly recommend! read more

Need to have some body work done on my car so went to my neighborhood shop AA Auto Collision Center. Brian and his staff did a great job and priced lower than what was expected! Thanks so much! Highly recommended! read more

I am blown away! They did my bed lining for my new truck and I am amazed! Called this morning and they took me at 12 pm! Finished by 3 with incredible service and made my truck look a million times better. Highly recommend! Staff was incredible nice and funny! Will definitely go back! read more

I am visiting the area from out of town. My fender liner came loose and started dragging on the freeway! Went to a few places around capitola, but they sent me here. The staff were very nice and helpful. They took care of my car right away. They didn't try to play me or upsell me on any unnecessary things. read more

I grew up in a small town where everybody knows everyone. Folks are treated with respect and deals are done with honor. This is the type of service I received from Juan Carlos and Brian. Prices here are much lower than the big players in town and the quality is the same. A hidden gem off Brommer between 30th and 38th. Superior customer service. A great place for non-insurance work. Please recommend to your friends. read more

Brian and Juan are great guys. They met me out front, looked at my car and stratagized how the repair would go. They walked me through all the steps and then taked with my Insurance Co. They were on the level, did not talk down to me, and we came up with a repair plan. I am one happy customer! Thanks Guys. read more

Terrible excuse of a body shop. Do not take any work here. Owner is untruthful, and immature to deal with. Were paid to install a new said bumper and paint said bumper. Installed the bumper, did not colour match the bunker and left several markings on the bumper. Leaving me with a honestly pathetic colour match and damage. When it was brought to the owners attention he became irate, said he would pay to it redone somewhere to my liking. Did so and provided the invoice to him, he said the invoice was "not legitimate" and now refuses to take my calls. Terrible shop, terrible owner, go elsewhere. If I could attach photos you would be disgusted by the work read more

Juan Carlos and Brian are the best! They repaired a front end collision on our Honda Accord. We decided not to file it as an insurance claim, and they saved us a lot of money! They found parts at low prices, talked with us about options for repair, and worked with us to reduce costs. Their customer service was excellent! They kept us apprised of the repair progress by sending us texts and photos of the car in progress -- this is the first time an auto shop has ever done this sort of thing for us. Also, when my 21 year old daughter first brought the car in by herself, they were very courteous to her, and it made her feel a lot better about her accident :) We highly recommend Juan Carlos, Brian, and the crew at AA Auto Collision Center! read more

Juan Carlos and Brian do a great job at a great price. Another body shop said we had to replace our Toyota hood and grill for $1400. They did it for $362. Thanks, Juan Carlos and Brian for saving us $1038. read more

I was involved in a hit and run and a car swiped my car, damaging both doors on the driver side, and the front fender of my BMW 328i. I called AA Auto Collision Center and talked to Juan Carlos, who was amazing. We scheduled a time the same day for me to come in and have them look at it. They accepted the quote I got from my insurance and we scheduled a time. They got all of the work done faster than expected, did a great job, saved me some money, and even washed my car for me. They are great and I highly recommend them for all your auto body needs. read more

Great price , service and quality of work done. All at 1/2 the price of the well known larger shops.

I have never had such great service at any auto shop. Juan Carlos helped me with my daughters car after a little scrape up. He cane right out told us he could buff it on the spot and did. I couldn't believe it. It looks as good as new. I am so grateful and will be taking any business I have here from now on. Thanks AA! read more

I found out about this place by recommendation and was impressed by their service! Fast, thorough and friendly. They are now in my contacts for future needs. Highly recommended! read more

What a Great job, Great price and Great people!!! I will be telling everyone about them!! Thank You again Brain and Juan and your wonderful staff! Lynne read more

I took my vehicle in for repairs on Monday and Juan Carlos promised to have it ready by Friday or the following Monday at the latest. Four days later, on Thursday, I received a call from Juan Carlos who stated that they had not started work on my vehicle due to the rain and that it would take several days longer than originally anticipated. When I asked why they hadn't bothered to contact me earlier he stated that he had the wrong telephone number. Problem: the work order that he had written up had my correct telephone number so that is no excuse . No further explanations or apologies. I really wanted to support this business but now I'm back to square one. read more

This place was awesome! Great customer service! They exceeded my expectations and worked with me on my budget. Had it all done within a day and my car looks basically new with no new parts! Definitely recommend! read more

These guys are great. There was a slight complication with my project but it was handled courteously and professionally. I would definitely recommend these guys for their honesty and integrity... They also do great work!! (1984 Jeep Guy) read more

I highly recommend AA auto collision. They are friendly and enthusiastic to help. I went in with an unusual request to "truck bed" the fenders, grill and lower portion of my 4x4 van. The job came out clean and professional. It looks amazing. Both Brian and Vance are stand up guys. They spent a lot of time discussing the lines and areas to be painted. I will definitely go back to them in the future. Thanks! read more

These guys are great. Friendly, helpful, and reasonable. I sent them an email describing a problem with the front fender/bumper cover and to ask if I could drop my car off the next day. I had my phone number on the email and they responded by calling me within 5 minutes. I stopped by that day and they repaired it right away for a very reasonable price. read more
