If I ever have another collision I'll be taking my truck to Gary.

EXCEEDED my expectations. I am particular, very detail oriented and when it comes to my cars,…read moreespecially my prized Landcruiser, I went through a long list of shops before giving the work to Dustin and Team. I toured the shop, saw the high end cars that he was working on, he showed me his paint analyzer, talked with pride about the years of experience his painter had....and it was obvious that he appreciated my truck, my desires and my expectations. My appointment date was made and kept and several days in, Dustin sent me photos of the progress. He did not have to do that, but it says a lot about his interest in keeping a schedule and keeping the customer happy and informed. He also painted back ground areas (behind the grill) that were not part of the repair.... because he said it was the right thing to do. The final outcome was like new ...he and his painter color matched a 25 year old paint job. As hard as I tried, looking from different angles and in different light conditions, I cannot see the line between new and old. Last, he was able to save a few $. ...and unlike most that exceed the estimate and ask for more money, he refunded me the difference. So in the end, it's more than just the outstanding quality and workmanship, but about the person you are dealing with. It's about honesty, fairness and integrity. I absolutely trust Dustin and will absolutely return to Carbon City Body Shop if I have further need.... and have Zero Reservations about recommending friends and family to trust that they will Exceed Expectations. Very Happy Customer!

John's Precision Auto Repair is not a shop I would recommend to anyone. I had to have repair work…read moredone to my 2017 F-150 truck. I took my truck to the shop and received a quote. A couple days later the insurance adjuster came out and looked at my truck, he agreed with the estimate and made no changes. I called John's to set up an appointment for repair. I was told to bring it two weeks later and that it would be a six day repair job. I took my truck for repair at 8:00 am on Monday, January 18. My truck should have been ready on Monday, January 25. However, it was not ready. At that point, I was told they were waiting for parts. I called back multiple times over the next several days to ask when the truck would be ready and it seemed as each time, I was given a different date and told different parts that they were waiting on. Finally, on Friday, February 5, I was told that I could pick up my truck, but there were still three parts they were waiting on and I could take it for the weekend, but would need to return it on Monday afternoon to get the other parts put on. So 15 days after dropping my truck off for a 6 day repair, I picked it up. After pick up, I discovered that the inside handle on the rear door would not open the door and there was overspray all over my truck including the windshield. (Just a side note, the door should not have been touched, the repair was to the bed of the truck). I returned on Monday afternoon February 8th to get the top bed rail snapped on, the F-150 sticker put on and the cover for the license plate light put on. I informed them about the door and they fixed it. Then on Wednesday, February 10th, I received an email from the insurance adjuster informing me that he had just received an invoice for an additional payment of $1600.00. The adjuster stated that John's did not ask for or receive prior approval for this supplement. The adjustor told me not to worry about it, that he would take care of it. I replied to the adjustor that John's had never said anything to me about additional charges. My recommendation is that you do use John's Precision Auto for any auto body repair.
