David Pineada (sp?) was attentive, thorough, and explained the complete process and the reasoning behind each step. No upsells, and used OEM parts as well. It was a three day job just prior to Thanksgiving, and the work was exemplary. But what set them apart was the detail oriented service - on drop off, they were prepared with a packet for the truck - no hand-written scribbles etc. Upon pickup, David called and offered to come pick me up! Another step out of the ordinary. But the kicker was that the truck was not washed - but detailed! Washed, waxed tires and rims, interior vacuumed and wiped down. Impressive. I'll be back if the occasion warrants. David exemplifies the excellence in customer service that can be rare.

If you're not going through insurance, **run for the hills** Or maybe any matter **run for the…read morehills**! My experience with this auto body shop--specifically with " Adrian", the co-owner and son of the owner was one of the worst business experiences I've ever had. His father appears to have positive reviews, but Adrian is an entirely different story. I originally connected with Adrian through " OfferUp " after listing my Dodge Challenger, which had been in a serious accident. He initially offered to buy the car, then claimed he could repair it for far less than what other shops quoted*. He talked himself up endlessly, bragged about the shop's 4.5-star Yelp rating, and even claimed he and his dad painted the "Batman" car some years ago. It all sounded convincing " it wasn't ". I checked Yelp, discussed it with my mom (who was helping me financially), and decided to move forward. That turned out to be a huge mistake. Adrian initially estimated the repair would be *$7,500-$8,000*, definitely under $10k. That number quickly ballooned to ** $13,000!!! **, and even then the car was returned " Half-done and poorly repaired ". From start to finish, the process was filled with " empty promises and manipulation at its finest. " * Constant "it'll be done tomorrow" excuses * Repeated pressure for money unrelated to the car ("I need $1,500 for my house project," "If I don't get the rest today my wife will be mad") * Missed deadlines with no accountability * Promised progress photos that never came--except once when he sent a photo of himself at his dad's birthday party instead My mom and I were in a group chat with him the entire time, so all of this is documented. On top of the financial stress, Adrian was immature, unprofessional, rude, arrogant, and dishonest. He contradicted himself constantly, couldn't keep track of his own lies, and when confronted, became defensive and insulting. At one point, he even threatened and disrespected both me and my mother. The final result? * Subpar, rushed work* * A broken driver-side sway bar left unfixed* * And his response was essentially " I was trying to save you money" and " You're lucky I even fixed your car." If zero stars were an option, I'd give it. If you care about your car, your money, your sanity, and being treated with basic respect--do not bring your vehicle here.If your expectations are realistic and you just want the job done correctly, save yourself the stress and go literally anywhere else. And yes I do know of some highly skilled car mechanics that ether live far away from me now or are too old tobe working on cars now that completely agree with me on this. And I know I'am going to have some nerds in the comment section say " why didn't you just pull the car out ?? " Not that easy and or " Your car was pretty much salvage before why are you complaining ? " The short answer is everything I just said in this whole review about my experience I had with him is why... How he conducted himself and his business if he was an actual decent human being and actually cared about the people and his own *job* instead of just about money . Then I would of gladly even have gave him more of my money todo the right job... This business may look good on Yelp, but my experience says otherwise. Good Luck

I believe that when a customer walks in--even if they are currently attending to another client or occupied with work--common courtesy dictates that they at least acknowledge their presence. Furthermore, they lack competence; I visited twice for the exact same issue, yet they failed to fix it properly on both occasions. Consequently, I went to the Lexus dealership today and strongly urged them to stop recommending this body shop. Consider yourselves warned.

I called two days ago to get a quote on some service , I caught the guy at lunch, but he took down all the information for what I was looking for and said he would call me back as soon as he got back from lunch, this was 12:15 At 3:30 that afternoon I had not received a call so I called once again the shop manager, Eric, answered. I asked for Johnny who was who I talked to earlier and he seemed confused as to who Johnny was at first, then he told me he wasn't available. He was at lunch. When I questioned that he said that they alternate managers taking lunch and I told him that he was on lunch at 12:15 and I was quite surprised that he would still be on lunch at 3:30. Anyway, Eric is the kind of guy that likes to talk over you so it was a hard conversation, but he said he would have Johnny call me back. Never heard from him that day, then the following day I called him once again and got their answering machine, so I left a message. Finally today day three I a call back from "Johnny" and before he could get a word out, I told him that I had already made arrangements to get the job done.
