I can't say enough good about Class Auto Center. I was hit in my Mini Cooper and the insurance company recommended Class. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Kent was my contact there, and he was amazing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My car actually looks better than it did before the accident. I have worked with other collision shops in the past and have never had an experience like this. The work was perfection, the customer service was fast and polite. My car looks and drives better than before. I would highly recommend this shop. read more

Audi referred me to Class Auto Center for minor bumper damage that was the result of a hit-and-run. They were able to buff out most of the damage, leaving only a very small nick in the paint. I had a great experience and definitely recommend their services. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]A terrible experience. I wasn't familiar with this place; I visited today and from the start there were problems with the car in front, forcing us to back up.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They were very disorganized.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My car came out with three scratches on the door, the water smelled awful, and I think the cleaning cloths on the machines are very worn, which is why they don't clean properly and have that musty smell.

I was rear ended in my Tesla and referred to Class Auto Center by my Tesla service center. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Mary was very responsive and easy to work with.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] She came to my house to assess damages and take pictures. She ordered parts and returned one because of a small scratch. She didn't take my car until they had all the parts and were ready to go. [[HIGHLIGHT]]She then arranged to pick up my car since I'm in the South Bay and the shop is in Long Beach.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Mary was great at keeping me informed on how the repairs were going and made sure the color matched perfectly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The shop was able to get an entirely new bumper for my car and I got it back perfectly detailed and it felt brand new again. I play beach volleyball so it's not easy to get all of the sand out. My car was picked up on a Tuesday afternoon and I got it back EOD on the following Thursday so about 71/2 business days. I'd highly recommend. read more

I had two separate experiences with Class Auto Center within a year period for auto body repairs for my VW convertible; I guess you could say I need to pay better attention to my backing skills - Ha! Both times, Class Auto provided me with customer service that exceeded my expectations. Raquel and Author took care of me both times. From start to finish, these two awesome individuals communicated the plan, next steps - with time frame, and then provided me with a excellent final product. My red VW convertible beetle came out perfect both times! I am so appreciative for the human kindness, professionalism, care and concern these two individuals showed me. Thank you, Raquel and Author. Please know you make a positive impact on others. Warm regards, Joelle read more

I have had great work done here before, so it was the obvious choice when my Wife's Mercedes got damaged. Yes I can tell you they did immaculate work, but well beyond that, the insurance companies were a nightmare, and delayed everything, and wanted to put in used parts, well Arthur fought for weeks with them, and put up with me and my wife calling him day after day, and never lost his professionalism. The question is not would I use them again, the question is would I ever use anyone else... (oh the answer is no). read more

I appreciate Kent Garland's service from start to end, he is doing above and beyond to take care our car due to hit & run and communicate with AllState. We are also a loyal clients since 2003. Team work is great here. Once again many many thanks to all of you who were involved in this process. read more

Look again, don't even think twice. The lack of communication was already a major deal but the customer service was something else. My husband called this place because he was involved in a car accident and this was on the insurance's approved list for Porsche auto repair. I wish my husband did his due diligence and looked at this business's yelp reviews first and take the warnings. We went thru similar situations as previous yelpers. We tried calling so many times - and never received a call back. When we finally did, it took a very long time - and they said our dent was considered "totaled". We asked to get to ur car back to get a second opinion and it's like pulling teeth to get someone to release the car!!!! Did they take the car's parts and swap out ??? Who knows! But I definitely don't trust them. read more

Anyone who has ever had their automobile damaged and then restored by the staff at CLASS AUTO CENTER in Long Beach is fully aware of the craftsmanship that exists at its location. Yes, it is true to its name -- a CLASS operation. In addition to those who do such classic work on restoration, (including Mr. Mario Escalante, the General Manager) might I expand upon one person, in particular, who understands and instinctually provides the kinds of service that the owner of any company would respect and appreciate. That person's name is Arthur Odinson. He possesses the kind of demeanor that understands that bringing in one's damaged car is not always a joyous event. Mr. Odinson's common sense approach is both comforting and hopeful. He is not just a "hello and let me tell you how much the restoration will cost." His high regard for the company's quality of work, in addition to his supportive nature by being a caring listener to the needs of the client is much appreciated. He goes way beyond the basic requirements of his position. When I met Mr. Odinson for the first time, he entered the office with a warm smile. He was knowledgeable, professional and personal, all at the same time. It was quite different from what I have experienced in many previous situations. It was obvious this was one who loved his career, valued the CLASS as a highly respected company and caring and dutiful to the client's needs. He was easy to speak with, never my feeling as though I was taking time away from his many other responsibilities, which I'm sure are many. I think back to the various front line professionals whose responsibilities set the tone for welcoming those who are needing services, whatever they may be -- the flight attendants, secretaries, restaurant servers, nurses, just to name a few. At their best, these professionals, do far more than is required by the position. They understand that the beginning and ending of a day requires the knowledge of being there to serve others. To uplift others, to serve others, to be fully knowledgeable in all facets of the operation and to fulfill responsibilities of helping others as a normal part of life. Mr. Arthur Odinson is one such person whom I have witnessed in his approach to his career. May we all carry that distinction throughout our lives. read more

Fantastic service this company is amazing. They communicated back-and-forth they kept me advised at all levels of the repair and I felt like every need was taken care of. Hats off to Isreal he is amazing. read more

Class Auto Center - Body Shops Near Me - Long Beach, California

Worst experience ever. Such a waste of time. Poor communication. And each time I get the car back, I noticed something wrong that requires being sent back. They're not certified in any manufacturer. Turns out they just send it to the dealer to get the work done and they just do the body work. No need to come here. Just find a body shop that's better than them local to you. read more

Thank you Jose for the battery check! Came in and he helped me right away, appreciate it !

This is the WORST collision repair shop. Beware of the manager and Ron Belmont they will lie and point fingers everywhere else, ZERO accountability for having my car in their possession for over 97 days!!!!! The worst experience I have ever had for a minor 2021 mercedez Benz collision. Take your business elsewhere!!! They conducted work on my car without insurance approval thus forcing me to pay out of pocket for work they couldn't justify. read more

Kent helped service my Audi and it came out perfect. My trunk was not able to open and came back working perfectly new. When I arrived to pick up my car, it was polished clean and was spotless. Great job by Class Auto Center! read more

Melissa at the front desk and Ron behind the scenes are the ones to thank. Thank you for providing good customer service and taking good care of our Tesla. read more

I incidentally hit a storage rack in my garage while parking my scratch-less car. It left a big white mark on a fender. I took my car to Class Auto Center and they "magically" removed that mark completely so that my car is scratch-less, again, as it was before the incident. I have been Class Auto Center customer for about three decades, now, and have never been disappointed with their superb work and friendly service. If you have a car in pristine condition that got damaged in an accident then Class Auto Center is definitely the place to go to. read more

Highly recommend this body shop for your Mercedes and other high end vehicles. They have always done wonderful jobs in the past for me. From insurance repair to just customers wanting to paint their vehicles. Makes your vehicles look factory new like if nothing ever happened to it. read more

Mario was awesome in assisting me on not getting screwed by this company that hit my Audi! He was honest and took the time to explain to me everything that was needed and all the options that were available to me read more

Special thanks to Kent Garland and his team for their professionalism. Kent's industry experience made a huge difference throughout the repair process. He was upfront about his experience working with my insurance company and the potential setbacks that may happen. Kent really showed his value when working with the after-market repair shop that was doing a custom job for my car. He paid close attention to the details which assured I was given the identical look as before the collision. Also worth mentioning he worked with my claim adjuster to get past an I.T./Administrative issue that could have caused delays. Kent gave me updates throughout the process and worked diligently to get my car back to me as soon as they could. The repair job looks amazing!!! If Kent's your estimator, you're in great hands. read more

Saving your time get away from this place! Waste of 6 weeks for nothing! We went to this place on 09/13 for a minor accident of my car. Easy to fix usually only takes 2 days at other shop. The guy give me a business card and told us we have to come back on November 7, they will order the parts and confirm with insurance agency to get approval. My husband doesn't want to spend 2 months to wait. But I thought they looks responsible and maybe they could fix his car perfectly, so we finally agree to wait. However!!! I was called on Monday 10/24 tried to confirmed my husband's appointment, the lady even didn't ask his first name, just told me my husband appointment is on 11/01, the date seems not right for us, but the lady just said they will text me appointment and put information into system and hang up. So I start to wait, until Friday 10/28, I still didn't get any text or phone call from them. I had to call back and check what's going on, after a few phone calls, they seemed have no idea about everything, and the November 1st is another guy's appointment, and they told me now parts have to be wait more than 4 months. But seriously? My husband's car just got some scratch. Overall, I was astonished by how they treat customer as shit, there's probably a global shortage of auto parts. But during the 6 weeks, they had so many chances to call us back told us the situation. Instead of let us wait and keep giving confused information. read more

My Audi dealer recommended that I take my car to Class Auto Center for repairs after it had been hit. The staff was very professional and kept me informed every step of the way on the repairs. I worked with Kent Garland. He addressed my concerns while dealing with the other parties insurance company and saw to it that the proper parts were installed on my vehicle. The pricing was fair and I appreciated the transparency. I highly recommend this business!! read more

come here if you want to wait months without getting any help. we got rear ended and had our car looked at by class auto and had the other party's insurance admit fault but this place ghosts us on any follow ups to do any work. 0 effort, business clearly lacks organization, leadership and ability to take care of clients incredible read more

THANK YOU CLASS!! My front bumper looks amazing!! Special thank you to Chris Turpin for helping me, excellent service!! My car was back to me sooner than expected, and they did a FLAWLESS job! A tire in the middle of the fast lane ruined my front bumper and ripped off my grill. Class did SUCH an amazing job, I can't even tell I had the damage in the first place!! I am beyond satisfied, thank you so much! Also the gentleman who helped me when I picked up my car Friday (8/20/21) night at around 5:30 pm was so nice!! I can't believe what great service they provided. So worth the drive from OC in rush hour traffic! read more

A grossly inflated damage report to the insurance co resulted in a Carfax report that looked like MAJOR damage. I had a very difficult time selling the vehicle after providing prospective buyers with the bogus Carfax report. Luckily, I still had numerous pics of the vehicle before the Class Auto repair to show the buyers. I ended up selling a 9 month old vehicle for $4000 less than its Blue Book value. Class Auto does good work. But, their business ethics could stand some considerable improvement. Make sure you take pics of the damage before delivering to any body shop. Damage within the first year of new car ownership is very depressing and selling the vehicle often eases the pain because it's never the same. read more
