I brought my car in after an accident and I received great service! Trevor in parts was super helpful. read more

The absolute worst. I brought my vehicle in for an estimate in early September, only to be told they will order parts and get back to me. No one from the facility contacted me for more than two months. I kept calling and being told, that they will look into it. Then when I call back for the third time trying to figure out what is going on and finally get a call back from a Manager, I'm told that they don't want to do business because I "sound upset." Yes, Melissa I sound upset because your business wasted 8 weeks of my time with no communication or professionalism. If you're looking for a body shop do yourself a favor and work with anyone else. Update: Despite contacting the email as requested below, no response. Figures, stay far away. read more

let me start with that I've taken cars to this caliber at least five or six times over the last 10 years and had outstanding service. not this time. after getting rear ended, I took my car in for an estimate/repairs. the rep (olivia grano) looked everything over, wrote out the estimate, and told me to go ahead and schedule the repair. the only tricky part is that I have an aftermarket back-up camera installed (car didn't come with one), so she said they wouldn't be able to fix that part. that I'd need to go to an electronics shop for that part of the repair. which was totally fine. now, about 18 hours before I was due to drop the car off for repair, I get a message saying they can't/won't do ANY of the repairs. and worse, olivia flat lied to my face when I went in to ask why the change. now she claims to have never said they would do the repair. absolutely unreal. totally unprofessional. (oh, and she also told the AAA rep the exact same thing about repairing the bumper but not camera) read more

Thank you, Juanita, for making my experience with caliber collision so easy. She was so knowledgeable and professional, she explained everything so well and helped me understand what kind of repairs my car needed. If anyone has issues with their car they definitely need to come here!! And ask for Juanita cause she's the best!!! read more

Stay very far away from this shop. I've had several problems with them over the years but continue to go only because it's a Gieco approved center and close to my house. I called in today for an time estimate on a bumper repair that Caliber Collision had already worked up, had photos of, and provided an financial estimate for. I spoke with Alina and she was rude and dismissive. She wouldn't give me a time estimate or any details. I asked to speak with her manager to get more details about the repair and she refused saying her manager was not in the office. I asked to speak to someone else in the office and she said she was the only person working today. I told her that I heard other employees speaking in the background and requested to speak to another employee and she hung up on me. I called back and and another employee answered. His name was Manual. He looked at my claim and told me it would take about 3 weeks to do the repair. It's a small quarter sized ding to a bumper with some scuff marks. Three weeks with a rental car just doesn't make sense. This company is too busy for quality service and treat people with complete disrespect. read more

I highly recommend Caliber Collision. This was my second time working with them, but the first at the Avenida Encinas location in Carlsbad. The communication was exceptional, along the way. Manuel was superb and provided regular updates on status and what was being done. The receptionist, Aleyna was extremely personable, patient and helpful too. I asked her many questions and she was always responsive and kind. I hope I never have a crash again, but if it happens, I will go back to Caliber. read more

I've had Andy Aumiller as my service advisor several times and he's always been amazing. He's honest, does amazing work and has always worked quickly knowing I never have much time without my vehicle. I wouldn't trust anyone else locally! read more

Juanita is amazing and very professional, what started off as a disaster with my daughter's car. She made it simple and answered all our questions. She was very professional and got us out quickly. Thanks again Juanita. read more

I am a frequent customer of Caliber Collision. Over the years almost every car on my AAA policy has been in an accident. Caliber has dealt with everything from fender benders to total losses for my family. Car crashes are never fun and always inconvenient. Let's face it, they suck so I just want to get in and out of there. Caliber makes it easy to get her back on the road. They stay in contact with the insurance companies and take care of my steel babies. When I have to wait for service I just start eating all of the goodies in the lobby. Caliber stocks mini Snickers and Milky Way bars, Cheese-It cracker packs, hot popcorn, and even goldfish. Goldfish are great for all of you health conscious people since they have all four food groups including: crackers from the grains group, fish from the meat group, cheese from the dairy group and orange from the fruit group. When I eat enough of their food they come out to help me just to get me to stop eating. So if you are in a car crash, make the most of it and let Caliber deal with your mess and feed you too. read more

I had a fantastic experience today at Caliber. Went in expecting to pay a lot of money and Miguel figured out a way to make it much less. 5 star rating for sure. Joe read more

I've unfortunately had to use their services on several occasions (have been hit by other drivers more than once!) and I've had great service each time. I especially appreciate their attention to detail and their care of customers over time. On our last visit, we had some issues with our battery afterwards and wanted to make sure it wasn't an electrical issue related to the accident. The branch manager took my car in right away and had it checked out and even paid for a rental car. We determined that it was a battery issue that AAA finally replaced (that's another story) and I had everything back working. It made realize that the companies that provide good customer service after the bill has been paid-- those are the ones to do business with. And Caliber is one of them. Stellar in every way. read more

These guys did great work on our Honda Insight. They did not manage the claim well, but when it all came to a head, they owned up to the mistake and then they made us whole. Sometimes business define themselves best by how they respond when things go wrong. Thanks Caliber! read more

Unfortunately a neighbor backed into my parked car. I thought Caliber had a good reputation, it is close by and is one of the insurance company's preferred shop so I made appointment. I told the person who answered the phone that I already had an estimate from the person's insurance who hit me. She seemed fine with it but told me to be sure to bring the estimate. I thought it was odd because she said the appointment wasn't to schedule a drop off but for them to look at the car and to talk about ordering the parts. I was running a bit late the day of the appointment but called ahead to let them know so not sure if that's why the blonde lady who came out for the appointment came on strong saying, "I can't give you an estimate because you already have one from the insurance." I tried to explain that this was the first time I was going through insurance like this to get repairs and was hoping she could take me through the process. After a few minutes it was clear she never wanted to help me in the first place. She said she was waiting for me to tell her what I wanted to do which I was really confused about since I made it clear I don't know the process but brought the paperwork I was supposed to. Then she ultimately said because my white car hood was over two years old and faded they could never match the bumper so they couldn't do the work. So weird. I thought that's literally their job. My car was in great condition before the neighbor backed into it. This is California by the beach. Who's paint job is in perfect condition? I attached a photo so you can be the judge. I'm still not sure what the real issue was ... because I already had an estimate from the paying insurance company? Maybe the person who scheduled the appointment incorrectly scheduled the appointment as an estimate? I don't know but don't come here if you want to waste your time or if you aren't already well-versed in the car repair process. These ppl don't want to explain it to you. P.S. This is regarding the Avenida Encinas location. read more

Really happy with Caliber. Trevor in pastes was really helpful, knowledgeable and polite.

Please do not take your car there. Worst customer service. Made an appointment, showed up and told we have to come back to leave the car for another day. Made that appointment, showed up and was told they were too busy and to come back the following week. And the proceeded to at the blame on us for misunderstanding them (I guessed twice...). Then was advised that even if we dropped the car off the following week, they may have to have another caliber location do the repair. Wasted my time during work twice. read more

Alberto is the best! I got rear ended and took my 4Runner here. They did a great job, car looked brand new. They did accidentally forgot to hook up my back up cam completely...so I brought it back and he QUICKLY took care of it. Great service. read more

I just picked up my little SUV from Caliber (Carlsbad location) and there's absolutely NOTHING that they could have done better. I've been here twice now within the last 6 months for unrelated claims/damages, and both experiences blew me away. Mason was my account rep both times and it clearly shows that this degree of professionalism, quality and efficiency is his (and their) standard operating level - so rare these days, but SOOO very much appreciated. Highly recommend these gents. read more

Took my vehicle here. Joseph helped look at where a gate arm had fallen on my car. He helped remove paint off of it and screwed my antenna down after it had got damaged. He was friendly, efficient, and helped me out! Ty Joseph ! read more

Service was quick and effecient and they worked directly with my insurance. I didn't even call the rental car company, they had them waiting when I dropped off my truck. They didn't price gouge either. Trevor was super knowledgable and the front desk lady was very Nice and bubbly. read more

I have brought my car two times to Caliber and both times have been great. Very pleased and satisfied with the work that has gotten fixed on my car. Ruth who works the front desk is amazing at all she does and a sweetheart. Luis has helped me both times with my car and has gone above and beyond in his customer service. The only two things I would recommend that can improve is the text messaging and the service from Enterprise. The texts messages I was receiving, I kept receiving like a day later and Enterprise takes about an hour to pick me up to take me to get my rental when they are only like 5 min away, and they have messed up twice on charges. Again this is with Enterprise only. However I would most definitely bring my car to this location in particular again and recommend to my friends and family because of the great service I received. Thank you once again Caliber! read more

Belated review: Had a bumper repaired under insurance after someone rear ended me. Since I didn't pay my comment is on the repair. The repair on the bumper was done on time and looks great. The car was a 2005 Clk320 2 door silver. Looks brand new. What else can I say. read more

Just got my Armada back. I am so happy with Caliber Collision and their work. Ruth at the front-desk was great to talk to and Raul (service advisor) explained everything clearly and gave continuous updates. read more

Very disappointing experience with Caliber Collision in Carlsbad. Commitments made that did happen. Their inexperienced staff and overall poor communication resulted in me having to pick up my vehicle (that they already disassembled) to take to a different repair shop. During that processed they inadvertently broke my windshield which prolonged the experience even further. When I finally was able to pick up my vehicle, the interior was covered in white dust (sanding nearby?), had wax marks all over it, and my windshield even had blue painters tape holding it in place since it was just replaced. The employee had to take it back and do some cleaning while I waited. Very unprofessional and argumentative group. Overall experience was a big waste of time with a company that doesn't do what they say to their customers. Would not recommend to anyone. read more
