    Jason is amazing. Best customer service I've ever gotten with my Corvette car was in and out and he was on top of his game for sure.

    Auto parts thrown into my car. According to the employee they do this with all vehicles with no regard to your items.

    I'm giving 1 stars because of the poor customer service that is autonation collision center. my frustrations with this place comes from the damage to my personal items that were left in my vehicle. I got my vehicle fixed after I was rear ended at the Autonation in Tempe, AZ. I turned my vehicle in and as soon as I got it back from repair (same day of my move to TX) I was so focused on moving that I didn't really do a full inspection of the repairs/repaint as well as the paneling. The panel gaps were so large water entered them, color was not a match of the rest of my vehicle and my mud flaps were never re-installed onto my car. I called this place and Charles assured me that my vehicle would be fixed and they'd take care of it. (Which they didi). I needed to turn the rental car in early that they got me because I had to fly back to PHX but I wanted to remove the items that I had left in my car since my car was being left unlocked. (They were aware I had these items in the car as well.) Upon arriving to my vehicle I opened the trunk and all the car parts were thrown into my car and onto my leather seats - scratching my interior leather as well as damaging 2 custom 3x5 art pieces that are valued around $700 each and would've appreciated more in value over the years had they not been damaged. If you are going to use my car for the storage of parts you could put my seats down and not place things directly on my leather. Or call me and tell me to remove my items especially when you were informed those items were in there. The solution? An interior and exterior detail. After having to deal with a month of repairs on top of the frustrations that come with an accident I also had to deal with the damage of my personal items of value. I appreciate the detail but that doesn't provide me with any solution - especially when as soon as I regularly use my car the scratching of my leather will be more noticeable. I will update this review with pictures.. Update 07/12 - called based off the review response and couldn't even talk to the GM. Who is Charles. No one could give me their insurance information. Attached are the photos. Update 07/27 - I have waited for 3 weeks for someone to contact me. Charles is out sick and has been out sick. No one has contacted me to rectify this situation. I have had radio silence and have lost roughly $3k in permanent vehicle damages by this repair shop. It's almost as if they don't care about customer service now.

    Jason helped me out and it was phenomenal. Got me in next day after I got home from the holidays and took a deer to the front of my Tacoma going about 65. Super extensive damage, and in the middle of the supply chain issues, but they got everything straightened out. Got good updates, and they even air freighted in some parts when they found out my original pieces were stuck on a boat outside LA. My best experience with any auto body work. I hope I dont *need* to see them again anytime soon, but if I do I would absolutely go back here.

    Just a warning if you think this body shop is great because it's part of AutoNation and right across the street from the Toyota dealer, then you're dead wrong. I had a deer hit me my Corolla on the side, there was a minor dent on the rear and passenger door, I assume the cost and time to repair would be minimal (I attached pictures, so you'll have an idea) but I was completely wrong. From the time of drop off to my pickup it took about 7 weeks! I took pictures of the impact and did an online estimate through my insurance. The initial estimate was around $1200, I took it to AutoNation center on 8/21/2023 for in-person estimate, the shop estimator I work with was Jerry. His estimate was a lot higher than my insurance but couldn't give a $ amount or time of estimate but I decided a drop off date of 8/28. That was a mistake, 2 weeks went by, and I had not heard anything from Jerry, so I called and left a message. I got a call back on 9/14 saying all parts are in and just waiting for a technician for painting. It was a clear lie because another 2 weeks went by, I have not heard anything, so I called on 9/25, apparently, Jerry has not submitted his supplement to my insurance which came out to about 7K! A lot more than Geico's initial estimate. So, on 9/25 the repairs had not begun, my only issue was the length of repair. My guess is the shop was disputing the amount of repair and had to wait for Geico adjuster to inspect, which is why I believe it took 7 weeks. Whether or not the supplement repair was necessary or not is debatable and can't confirm but I believe its price gouging. I was finally able to pick up my car on 10/16, at the time, the shop was still disputing over $700 total repair. They did a good job with the repair but again it was a barely noticeable dent, no panel needed replacement, some damage to the rear wheel; it was mostly labor for "painting", it should not have taken so long and so much $$. I don't blame Geico for the entire process, this shop is shady asf. You may take my review as a grain of salt, but they will make you sign a waiver (at time of drop off) agreeing not sue them for taking a long time to repair, means they have been sued a lot before for this type of behavior. Lesson learned, next time I will go to a body shop recommended by my insurance, if they pick any AutoNation I will avoid.

    Solid experience, it did take a long time but it was due to parts being back ordered. Jerry was great, very communicative.

Two years ago, they replaced the bumper on my Toyota Corolla. That bumper recently detached entirely during a road trip. When I asked them to cover the repair, they declined, citing the two-year gap. A separate auto body shop that inspected the damage confirmed the failure was due to the use of aftermarket parts, despite the fact that I was billed for dealership-grade parts. When I raised this, I was told the failure must have resulted from other body work done on my car in the interim, calling me a liar. There is no record of any such work. The only service on my vehicle since has been routine inspections. Monica Guerra and her staff have been dishonest throughout this process, and I'm deeply disappointed in how they've handled it. $2000 to fix their mistake.

    This is a lengthy review, so buckle up (ha...ha)…read more I initially sought out Autocraft because I needed to get some rear-end damage repaired on my Tesla (i.e. trunk replacement). They were booked out pretty far, but long story short, they ended up being able to move up my appointment (drop off) date a bit earlier than initially anticipated, which was great. The downside of this was that I was spending some time in San Angelo, TX (which was a couple hours' drive from this location, so that was kind of a pain. However, I got scheduled, and dropped the car off with Autocraft, and they hooked me up with a shuttle over to the Enterprise to pick up my rental. Cool. Everything is going smoothly so far. A note about the drop-off: Christian was the one doing the intake for the car, and he marked all the areas that they intended to remove/replace with a black grease pencil (which I have photos of, and will be attached to this review). Moving on... Over the next few weeks, there were some dealings back and forth between myself, Autocraft, and my insurance company, which was mostly just trying to get everything settled between the estimate, accepting the estimate, and getting the monies where it needed to be. BREAK--- Goodness, it's been 3 years and I completely forgot that I never finished this review... Hopefully I can pick up where I left off, if not, I'll sum it up. The general overview is: Autocraft overcharged my insurance (not my business, I guess), then did generally kind of sloppy work (which took forever), then tried to trick me with incorrect tint (first of all, they actually didn't even re-tint my small back windows after replacing them, and didn't tell me even though they knew I would have to make a two hour drive down there - trying to pull a fast one, so I had to fuss about that and make them get those windows re-tinted, which resulted in further delays and a total waste of time by me even having to make the drive there and back for nothing. Then, then ended up charging my insurance the $1k deductible AND ALSO taking payment from me, so in essence, collecting an EXTRA $1k, until I happened to catch on and had to fuss about that issue to be corrected as well. Then they played around and acted like they didn't have a way to return the funds (after taking their time trying to "figure out" what the discrepancy was), to finally cut me a check. On top of all of this, when I FINALLY went to pick up the car when it was allegedly ACTUALLY ready this time, the tint was still not correct (I had ceramic UV tint, they just got the same tint rating, but the cheap regular tint), there were some chips on my back glass (they acted like they had no idea what this was from - of course blaming it on the fact that they were already there before they started the work), the truck had a bit of misalignment - although it worked fine, it was a little off (and still is to this day). THEN, the finale, to add insult on top of all of the rest of the ~4-6 weeks that this took, when I picked the car up, by the time I got there (remember, two hour drive), it was late in the evening, and they were closing... They managed to poke a hole in my driver's side seat (I know EXACTLY what this was from - Christian specifically, but probably more of their staff, walk around with grease pencils in their back pockets, tip UP), and when I pointed this out, Christian blamed it on my husband (who got in the car for 30 seconds to move it and was wearing SOFT sweatpants with NO pockets on the back or any type of grommet or anything else. So that turned into another argument, and they finally agreed to replace the seat (still issues with this to this day as well), which resulted in... you guessed it... ANOTHER WASTED TRIP. I finally got my car back and just took it and left it alone because I was SO TIRED of dealing with these people and their shenanigans, it was RIDICULOUS! DO. NOT. RECOMMEND!!!!! I cannot express this enough!!!!! DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR HERE FOR REPAIRS! If I could give ZERO stars, I WOULD!

Once again Caliber Collision did an incredible job. Not only is the work they do there unparalleled, but they have the kindest, most friendly staff who are helpful and knowledgeable. James helped me with my claim AND kept me informed on my repairs throughout. I never had to reach out to him, because he was always reaching out to ME. When I picked up my car I didn't even recognize it. It was cleaner and shinier than when I bought it. They detailed the inside as well. In addition the shop is immaculate. I will never take my car anywhere else and will recommend Caliber to everyone I know.

The only communication we had through them after dropping off the van was through email. They sent an email saying "(T)here was a little supplement after the disassembly of the vehicle nothing crazy, I will send an invoice once it's in reassembly stages." Later, the shop agreed to lowering the bill by $731.54 but said I need to pay in full to get my van back. After paying in full, they wanted us to sign a form saying we authorized the repairs. Since I did not authorize the repairs, I refused to sign the form. Since I would not sign the form, the shop refused to give me my van back until I called the Police and the Police made them give my van back. When the van was finally released to us, we could not drive it away. The van would not start because of a dead battery. The shop personnel said that they had to constantly jump start the van in order to move it around. Why would a repair shop knowingly release a vehicle with a dead battery? In addition, the backup camera on the van does not work after they replaced the back bumper with the camera. I don't trust taking my van back to them again to get the backup camera fixed. I have tried to reach out to Caliber Corporate office but I have not heard back from them and it has been 2 weeks.
