My Saab and I were in an accident a few years back and I brought it to Advanced Auto Body for the repair work. They fixed up my car so well and for the right price- the results were beyond my expectations. I couldn't have asked for better service. My car was back to normal again, and I had peace-of-mind. Because of that good experience, I've brought other cars there for bodywork, and continue to be happy with the results. I am confident in this shop and wouldn't bring my car anywhere else in the city. Thank you very much Advanced ~ read more

I recently went in and filed a claim for my Honda Civic after my airbag got stolen and everything was completed and repaired so quickly! I received my car the very same day I dropped it off. I barely recognized my own car because they detailed and cleaned so much. Everyone at Advanced Auto Body was kind, considerate, and efficient. They truly went above and beyond for me and my car, I am so grateful for their help during this difficult process. I would recommend their services to anyone. read more

The Advanced Auto Body team was fantastic. I damaged my rear passenger door, and they repaired it expeditiously to look like new. Unlike other body shops, I felt like they targeted only what was broken rather than insisting we needed to do more than necessary because that's just how it works. Because of this, I felt that the price was very fair. Thank you guys for being honest and doing great work! read more

The worst mechanic in town stay away They are thieves they did not replace my ac Even though is under warranty Cops had to be called these people are just simply Dishonest read more

Very good customer service. It was great working with Cary and his staff. The repair took a little longer than expected. But that may have been because of some issues with getting the right parts and since the radiator needed to be replaced (since it was not initially possible to open the hood, this was not known until later). The repair ended up being more than the estimate of both the shop and the insurance appraiser. But since we were not at fault and because the radiator needed to be replaced, not such a concern. It was certainly not overpriced either (based on 2015 repair done at Gerbers). Cary is very helpful. He suggested contacting the insurance company of the other driver, who as at fault, so that we would not need to seek reimbursement from our insurance carrier for our deductible. Good advice. The only thing we paid for before applying for reimbursement was additional insurance on the rental car. Enterprise is near by and will shuttle you to/from Advanced. read more

This was an easy process and run by good people. I'm not happy I was in an accident but they made the process of fixing my truck a breeze

I've been to Advanced Auto a couple of times for some body repairs. Cary and his staff always do top notch work, and I know that I can trust them (which can be rare when it comes to finding someone to handle your car). Their prices are fair and they work great with insurance companies. I would definitely recommend their services. read more

I had an accident about month ago, my car hood, front lights and front bumper were damaged and I had to look for a body shop to fix all that. I was a new customer to Advance Auto body shop, I relied on other customers reviews on Yelp and Google and I took my car to them. When I got my car back I could not tell my car was damaged, it looked like brand new.Both Freddy and Johnson did really an outstanding job fixing my car, I highly recommed Advance Auto Body. You will really be happy with the results, just like me. read more

I initially took my 2004 Saab to Advanced back in 2006. After some time, some of the wear and tear of living in the city took its toll on some of the work. I initially felt unhappy about this and brought my voice to Yelp. Advanced Auto Body took note of this review and reached out to let me know that their work has a lifetime warranty and invited me to come in to take a look at it. Upon seeing it, they eagerly offered to repair the work at no cost to me. It was a great example of how a business can take social media into their hands and turn a seemingly unhappy experience of a disgruntled customer and convert them into a happily returning customer. I would be eager to bring my car back to them for any body work that my precious Saab may require! (which I hope is none!) If you love your car, take it to Advanced. They will love your car too! read more

Very warming and professional customer service. My experience and advanced auto body was very good. I would recommend them to my friends and family, and I plan on using their services in the future! read more

I was hit by someone insured through American Family Insurance. This was the closest body shop approved by them - so when I saw the reviews I was in! They gave me great customer service and felt confident in their ability to repair my vehicle! They delivered! Made sure they walked me back to show everything was back in order. As well as communicated with me through the process. It was pretty easy with the rental car situation - especially when I was picking up my vehicle. I also had some other damage that I had them repair that was unrelated to the accident. I felt that quote was reasonable and they offered to try and find cheaper parts and kept me in the loop about receiving them. It can be very difficult getting parts for newer cars - but they didn't take too long - just as expected! I would definitely go back! But HOPE I don't have to! read more

I been to this place for a while an got my car fix an my dads an always wen i come they always do a great job with or with out working with your insurance. read more

I had my Dodge Magnum repaired a few months after purchasing it in 2005. Right door damage and the work they did in matching was great. The best part they have lifetime warranty on their repairs and here it is 7 years later and some small rust was appearing on the bottom of the door. I brought the car in and Cary told me to bring it in that they would repair it. The job was done quickly and he also removed and repainted and placed the molding back and it was all covered under warranty. That's what i call an ethical body shop. No fine print no worry. I have taken several cars to be fixed there and recommend anyone to do the same. They are very customer service oriented. read more

Let's hope you'll never need their services. But when you do, you'll get personal, friendly attention from Cary, the owner. If you have insurance through State Farm, this shop is one of their Select Service Repair Facilities; your claim will be handled without any hitches and original parts will be used. The results on my Prius (following a collision that was totally the other guy's fault -- and he paid the total bill) were nearly undetectable following the excellent work by Cary's crew; both on the sheet metal and the plastic sections. Delivery was as promised and took less time than I had imagined. read more

If I could give this place no stars I would. They fixed my car one time and damaged the hood then had the audacity to say that my hood was like that when it got there. They had chipped the paint and then tried to poorly cover it up with some other black paint. My mother got her car fixed here and they put a different bumper on her car that did not fit properly. I don't know how these people are still in business or how they have such high ratings I would never take my car here again. read more

Great husband and wife run business, with a real commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. They say they do good work and they do! Sent my 2000 Saab there after a recommendation from Perillo back in 2002 and have been there 3 times since. Just got my Range Rover back yesterday for some damage from a coo-coo cab driver in downtown (you know them) and the truck was sparkling when I got it back. They also do a great job of pushing the insurance companies to use new parts over old parts. Cary and Celeste are the best!! read more

So....it turns out they forgot to install certain parts, leading to the existing installed parts popping out of place. I didn't bother following up with them and maybe they'd've fixed it, but I'm tired of having to do everything twice (see my review of Midtown Toyota). Do it right once and I'll be back. But now that I've just gotten in another auto accident, I'll be going elsewhere. read more

We ONLY go to Advanced Auto Body! They are extremely trustworthy which is hard to say with auto repair. I know I am getting the best quality service at a reasonable price with quick turnaround. We have referred countless friends to them. We had our Honda Element and Toyota Echo repaired numerous times over the past 10 years. Most recently, they replaced the brakes on the Honda. They even washed the car, inside and out which we did not expect. We've even asked them for suggestions on new cars. We trust them from soup to nuts for our car needs. read more

Cary and Celeste are the best! I am REALLY particular and they help me manage my car to my standards. The work their shop turns out is amazing and they have a great negotiated rate with Hertz. They get that it is tough out there and they keep the cost down for you without compromising your car looking great. Living in the city it seams that you always get a scraps and or a dents from other people. They are great at prioritizing and keeping my car looking great. I drop off my car sometimes when I will be away on business. I come home to my car in my garage gleaming like new with a note from them. They go above and beyond for you; most recently I was having an issue with my Xenon headlamp. I was quoted over $1,000 for just the part at another shop and Advanced Auto Body searched and found me a refurbished unit. $460 installed with tax! Cary showed me what was wrong, Saab Exchange obviously had forced the bulb in the wrong way and broke the headlamp assembly causing it so shake when you drive. He also showed me how to install the bulb, it is so easy and shops charge you $90 to do it. They even gave me the Xenon bulb... If you like great customer service at a fair price give them a call. read more

Cary and Celeste are da bomb!! Cary has been fixing my cars for years and always does an amazing job. The work is thorough, on-time and done right. Works well w insurance company too. read more

Very nice, but somewhat incompetent. went there to have my toyota prius fixed after being rear-ended. i explained that the CD player was not working after the collision. it took over 3 weeks to fix and they didn't even look at the CD player! i eventually took it to the dealer who had to replace it. read more

I think not. Felt as if minorities are treated poorly here. I speak English, no need to talk slow and repeat yourself a numerous amount of times. They expect you to sit there and do as they say, almost as if you have no say so. Very rude. read more

Great customer service!! Great work! Recommend to anyone.very good hospitality and even had some drive us to Hertz to pick up our rental(which they didnt have to). Thank you for everything. read more

They are the best in the area! Good work & fair pricing. We hope to never need their services - but accidents do happen. Their shop is the only place we'll go. Thanks for continuing in our neighborhood. read more

******* HAS NOT MOVED ******* Advanced Auto Body located at 2541 N Cicero Ave Chicago Il Has NOT MOVED!!!! I was just there to pick up my car last night. They have been at this same location for 38 years & I have been coming to them since my 1st accident in 2005. Apparently there was some confusion with the previous 2 reviews. So I can assure you this business is still at the same place doing fabulous work! read more

This guy is great. He's taken care of my major auto body work in the past but today he was a life saver. I had a flat tire and just needed the spare put on. Two smaller shops near me weren't open and I was panicked driving around with a complete flat. I called this place and the guy gladly changed my tire and didn't even charge me. Super nice guy. read more

My story: I had my first car and second accidents of my life on Tuesday morning, March 17th 2015 (at the same time). My car was damaged on the front and on the left side. My front passenger side door had a dent in it from a bad park job way before I had the accidents, but everything just looked worse after my poor car got crippled. I was told by my insurance company to drop my car off at Hertz and that Hertz would move my car around to an auto shop in my network and it ended up being Advanced Auto Body. They called to confirm everything and to ask me questions about what I wanted done and if there is anything else I needed (oil change, fresh brake fluid, windshield wiper fluid, etc.) They also gave me an estimate on the cost of fixing the bump on my passenger side door. Every estimate I had ever gotten before was in the thousands because most autorepair shops just want to replace the entire door I learned. Here at AAB they said they could fix it for around 600 dollars. I could not believe my ears! I told them that I would definitely come back to have my door fixed some time after I finish off paying my insurance deductible because of the accident. Later, I get my car back in absolutely no time at all and it looks good as new! Clean! Shiny! Aligned! What really surprised me is that, just to be nice, they decided to fix the bump on the passenger side door of my car as a surprise. I am touched. I cannot believe someone would go out of their way to do this for me. My car looks BEAUTIFUL. I would recommend this place to everybody and, knowing me, I probably will! They're also just the sweetest people you'll every meet! Just tell them what's going on and they'll try their best to help you out. Truly defining what it means to go above and beyond. If you guys at AAB see this I just want to say THANK YOU!! -Fadel read more

Don't go there I had bad experiences went there for a detail they did the sides of my truck and not the top I had to take it back I ask them to solder the connection to my rear defrost they glued it with crazy clue and he says don't open the glass will never go again they do half work and make all type of excuses good luck read more

My family has been taking our cars to Advanced Auto Body for years. From the little dings to the time my 16 year old had his 1st major wreck - they are the best. Professional, courteous and amazing repair masters. Every time our car has been ready on time as promised. You will not be disappointed with them. read more

Advanced Auto Body is the best. I have had to use their services for both body work and inside the body work, ie: brakes, lights, etc. Each and every time my experience with them has been magnificent. One of the things that I really like and very much appreciated was being told what needed to be done now and what could be held off for a while without doing any damage to the car. This enables me to make financial decisions that are not based on fear. In the past, I've been treated poorly by many repair shops (especially at the dealerships) where they tried to make me feel as if I didn't repair everything they said right now, I'd be doing a Fred Flintstone with my car very soon. As a human being (and particularly as a woman) I want to be able to trust the people who take care of my car and I have absolute and utter trust in Celeste, Cary and their crew at Advanced Auto Body. I highly recommend them. read more
