Ron and Chris were great to work with. I brought my Tesla in for repair and although it took more then 4 months for them to receive the parts, once they had everything, they did a great job with my car. They also kept me updated as they were going through their process. read more

Truly upholds the name. Class Auto treated me first class. I love good service. Chris took care of me there and didn't miss a beat.

Took my tesla to class auto center and picked up my car today Dec. 31, 2015. It took 11 weeks to repair my car which is unheard of. They kept blaming tesla for not giving them the parts. So if you own a tesla and need it repaired, I don't recommend this shop unless you're okay being without a car for 3 months. The manager, Ted, wasn't even there when I picked up the car to apologize or anything. I think they felt like they were doing me a favor by repairing my car. Completely dissatisfied and will not be returning. read more

This car shop really took care of my needs. I contacted them for a quote on a scratch on the side of my car. They immediately took me in without an appointment and provided me with a quote. On the day I took my car in they provided me with shuttle service back home and contacted me when my car was done. When I picked up my car they had it parked up front and even gave it a rinse. read more

***update*** This place is great and when we had an issue after the service they were on top of it!!! Called and text me back on Friday after hours and even delivered the car after it was done! Ted picked up the slack and did everything to make this situation right. Big thanks to Ted and his team for all the hard work. Car looks great! read more

So class auto recently became this preferred body shop, one of the only few for State Farm Insurance and I thought why not they must be good. This was a very bad mistake, they focus on fixing high end sports car and I brought in my Toyota, so I think they are just are careless if my sticker price is under 50K. They took 10 days to fix my car, who takes a week and half to fix a bumper. When I received my car back, something funny was happening and I had to get my car jumped 5 minutes after I picked it up, which was the first of two times in one night. Later that night, I was driving in the neighborhood and my car suddenly turns off, this could potentially have been really dangerous if I was around alot of cars. Class(Less) Auto definitely had something to do with this because this wasn't happening when I dropped it off. Sure enough the rich boys club over there on Cherry and Spring did not own up to the fact they did anything wrong with my car, which could have caused me to be in a potential dangerous situation. It is really hard to prove that they did something but I had this car for almost ten years and alot of other mechanics worked on it, and nothing of this sort has happened. To this day the cars electrical system is not working properly. DO NOT TAKE your car to Class Auto in Long Beach, especially if you have State Farm Insurance. P.S. State Farm if your reading this take them off your preferred vendors list!! read more

Overprice. Charged me for quote that they said would be paid for by insurance co. I had been going to them for years and they still overcharged me. Manager said they would take care of me. Then never returned my phone calls read more

Class Auto Center is the best auto body shop in area. Kent is a pleasure and their work is 100% "top of the line". Never disappointed and couldn't recommend them more highly. read more

Hilarious! Yelp lets businesses remove bad reviews? Make sure you look at the removed reviews not the ratings. I took my car here and was quoted a ridiculous price and given the run around when I decided to not do the work with them. Then they didn't want to reassemble the car! After they finally put it back together I had to make them do it twice because of the half assed work- loose screws in the engine, a flap that took 2 seconds to connect that could have damaged the tire. I cant believe this is the shop Long Beach BMW sends repairs to. Oh, did I mention the run around they gave me cost 60$ a day in storage? I don't mind paying for quality, I do however mind being taken advantage of. Don't take your car here. read more

I have use Class Auto since 1995. They will not cut corners and will fight for you with the insurance carriers. Class auto is far from being inexpensive but if you own a BMW, MBZ or a Porsche they are the auto body repair facility which is certified and qualified to perform work on the higher end vehicles. Gary B read more

Brought my MBZ C300 in for minor body work after it was hit while parked unattended. Took about 7 days and my car looks amazing. I worked with Ted on my estimate and he is fantastic. Liz in the front office is also very nice. They even cleaned my car inside & out before I picked it up. Definitely will recommend them to all my friends who drive MBZ, Audi and BMW. read more

I took my car to Class Auto after being in an accident. I have taken some of my other cars there also. They always get the work done quickly and the quality is great. I also love how they keep in touch with you on your cars progress, and the front desk girls are awesome! I'll be back if I get in another accident. read more

Class Auto is an amazing body shop and i'm incredibly pleased with their professionalism and service. I've taken my Mercedes Benz here for repair and cleaning and experienced firsthand, the quality and efficiency of their work. Israel and Chandler are a delight to work with and I truly feel that they take care of their clients. Amazing details and touch-ups here! I live in Los Angeles and make the trek down to Long Beach simply because I don't trust my car with anyone else. read more

I have a Jeep. It gets dirty all the time. Literally, I can run into Starbucks and 5 seconds later come outside and it looks like my truck just crossed the Kalahari. Which means I always need to keep it clean. I probably bathe my car more than myself, and I'm OCD. *ahem...LADIES* Anyway, I was visiting the parents who wanted to see that I have a spotless car. It helps distract from the overall schlubiness of the rest of my life. Which means the Jeep needed to be detailed. I literally looked everywhere for a decent detailing service, from the foo-foo ones at the mall where you park and they detail-while-you-shop (SO beverly hills) to the sketch ones where you hand the dude your keys and your car disappears, likely permanently. Eventually, I took it to Class per a recommendation from a close friend. "It...had...BETTER...be...good!" I huffed, considering I don't live conveniently close to LB ("the LB?" "Long B?" "L'Beach?") Boy, did this place blow my house down. The service was super friendly and courteous, which was really unexpected versus the gruff, blase grease-monkey service I'm used to at local wash/detail places I dropped off my mechanical child and was recommended local restaurants close by where I could grab a bite (coming in a subsequent review!) and sure enough, it was done on time. When I showed my parents, their initial reaction was shock. "HOW much did you spend on this?!" It was that good of a detail. Oh, parents. Can't live with em, will throw yourself into a dirt hole screaming "LAWD TAKE ME INSTEAD" when you realize you have to live without em. I was able to get a detail and pay for lunch and still spend less than I usually do when someone drives my car through a gas station car wash and takes an hour to do so, which is how details *usually* go with my truck. Class is the best--and now I can't wait to get my off-roader dirty again so I can come back. read more

Took my 4runner here, it was on approved list through State Farm insurance. They do great work. It took about a week to get fixed, which is what they quoted. Not the friendliest of staff, but to me that doesn't matter too much--its the quality of work that matters. Not to say they were rude, because they were not! I would recommend this place, at least for anyone going through insurance. read more

Mercedes of Long Beach referred me to Class Auto for work to be done after damage to my front end. This decision I now regret, but used Class Auto because I trusted my dealership. Class Auto gave me the run around well after they were fully compensated by my insurance company. The work on my front end had not been completed for 3 months and would have been longer had I not threatened getting my lawyer involved. The workers I dealt with at Class Auto were unprofessional and downright rude. I do not recommend this shop to anyone, and for those of you recommended by Mercedes to use them, BEWARE! read more

Excellent service and results on a difficult situation with my Porsche. Kept me updated on the progress. Handled every detail and question quickly and professionally. Appreciate the efforts of Israel, Mario and Cynthia! A great team at a great place! read more

After someone backed in to my parked Mercedes 09 SL 63, I wanted to find a Long Beach body shop that would return it to me in flawless "like new" condition. After visiting three other places I went to Class Auto and was greeted by a courteous smiling Edith. She summoned Kent and we got the process started, my first in dealing with a body shop / Insurance company. There was no hesitation for me, I knew I had found the right place. Kent managed the complete process, always keeping me in touch with the status of the liaison with my insurance company, and then the ongoing repair steps. I am with All State Insurance and when I spoke with my adjustor he commented " You have chosen a great body shop" - he was so right. So I picked up my Baby yesterday, all work completed perfectly, I could not be happier. Sincere Thanks to the entire team at Class Auto Center. Martyn T. read more

Superb workmanship, value, courtesy, cleanness, attention to detail, honesty, professionalism, and friendly personnel (particularly, Kent, Ted, and the receptionist lady). I just picked my car last month after yet another repair at Class Auto Center. As always before, it was in like new condition, in and out. The repair and paint were flawless, and the car was perfectly clean -- even had the new car smell, inside. They did all the paperwork needed for my insurance (AAA) so that I did not have to lift a finger, not even to see a AAA adjustor. I would not hesitate recommending Class Auto Center to anybody. read more

Very satisfied with the work performed to my audi. Thank you very much to edith and israel. Very professional. Angel marti read more

Mine was a difficult repair with a few unforeseen conditions. Kent at Class pushed it through and made it happen. Everything was right on when we wrapped it up. Nice to see an establishment with such professionalism. read more

I brought my car here because it was a Mercedes Benz certified shop but what a terrible experience. As some of the other reviews here indicate, this shop is known for price gauging. They also do terrible work. My car some minor damage on the passenger door and side panel and after leaving there for about 3 weeks, they called me to say it was ready. I inspected the car and right away noticed that the door was closing right, i had to slam the door before it closed properly. Not only did they not alert me that this was an issue but they tried to say that it was the seal and they I needed to give it time to "let the seal set in". I knew that wasn't it but they (even the manager) assured me it was the seal and that the problem will be correct itself and if not, i can bring the car back, which was not the point. After charging my insurance 4K , the job should have been done right in the first place. This shop is a Mercedes Benz shop, how can they not notice this issue, didn't they inspect it before calling me saying it was all ready? I had to point out the issue for them. Again terrible service. I bring my car back weeks later because the issue has not resolved itself. Now they tell me, "it's not the seal but the hinge might be misaligned, we had asked your insurance for this repair but they didn't authorize so we are going to contact them again, wth...seriously. After much hassle, they did fix the problem. Do not bring your care here, not only do they overcharge for repairs but they do a poor job. read more

Class Auto Center was referred by my dealership. I made three trips to Class Auto Center for an estimate and spoke with two different adjusters. I called incessantly for over a month and I still don't have an estimate. If the quality of their work is anything like their customer service, I'm better off not using them. read more

Highly recommend this body shop! From the beginning estimate to completion, everyone I dealt with was very professional. The end result was better than I expected. I am very pleased with Class Auto! read more

The best experience I could have ever asked for. They were on time, stayed on budget, perfectly matching the custom color and provided updates along the way. Thanks to the whole team at Class Auto Center. I sincerely appreciate the amazing work they provided, you have earned a loyal customer for life. read more

My 2012 MBZ GLK 350 roof top was damaged. It literally had a "hole" in the roof. I directly worked with Ted from Class Auto. I was thoroughly impressed with the quality of their work. Honestly, my car looked completely brand new. I was given updates a long the way and various options. I cannot express how appreciative I am of their service and the quality of their work. Truly topnotch! read more

Class Auto Center Did A Great Job !!! Thank you Class Auto! I Highly Recommend Them They are Honest and very easy to work with! The staff is very talented, They are very good ! The best I have ever seen! I trust Class Auto Center ! 5 Stars!! GOOD WORK!!!!!!!! read more

The local Audi dealer recommended Class Auto Center for any body damage repair. The entire staff was pleasant to work with and my main point of contact, Bobby, walked me through every step dealing with the insurance to get my repairs complete. Car was finished on time and looks great! read more

I've had nothing but headaches with these people. Btw Ted is supposedly the supervisor, he is the WORST! I'm really disappointed with the customer service they provide. Lots of miscommunication between them and my insurance. Their negligence to (email,fax,call, etc) delayed the whole process of getting my audi q5 fixed in adequate time. I will NOT recommend this auto body shop to anyone. They don't care how the CUSTOMER feels!!!! read more

Getting in a car accident is a traumatic experience in itself..... my last experience with the previous body shop I used was a nightmare so I crossed my fingers hoping this experience was much better and thankfully it was. I was referred to Class Auto from a friend who swears by them so I trusted her and my experience was nothing short of amazing. I was having issues coordinating the drop off with my car so they were courteous enough to actually come to my house to pick up my car. I couldn't believe the service they provided me. They kept me completely in the loop the entire time. Both Israel and Johnny were so great at letting me know how everything was going. When I came to pick up my car it was perfect. They detailed it better than anyone has ever done and it was done exactly in the amount of time they initially had estimated. Everyone who works there is so friendly. I will definitely be referring them customers and if I ever have any issues with my car in the future I, 100% hands down will be going there. read more

BEWARE!!!! What a racket! I'm am single woman who brought my car to get an insurance estimate. The mechanic assigned to me seemed like a nice trustworthy person. (Good front) He told me my car was not safe to drive and I should leave it with there while he negotiated terms with my insurance company (which he prepped me....would take a while). My car was there for the weekend and Christmas week. They did no work, at all. They didn't even give their own estimate. But, they quickly said they would not guarantee their work because of this or that reason. I told him, since they would not certify their work, I would like to bring my car to another shop. The service manager, Tedd, responded "That is fine as long as you pay $1,000 in CASH for "storing" your car here. What the?? They had not even looked at the car or done any work at all. And, on top of that, they were not open on the weekend or the holiday week.. But, still charging me to "store" it these days?!!!! WHA??? Bunch of thieves. read more

This place sucks! We brought our car in for a repainted job of the rear bumper. A month later, they didn't even finish the job. They charged over $4,800. And worst of all, my Mercedes was missing its rear spoiler. When we asked about it, they tried to change the subject, and then they admitted that they could find the part. That was totally a scam. We paid for the new spoiler and the installation fee, and ended up with no spoiler. Do not go to this place! Or you'll be regretting. What a scam! read more

Just picked up the wife's Mercedes after the car was rear ended. Car is perfect! Everything is back to normal and the paint is better than ever!! Thanks to Ted and his team it's back to perfect and ready right before I pick my wife up tomorrow after returning from a business trip! Saved our car and possibly our marriage too! Great job! read more

Raquel Robles and her staff were unbelievably professional. Reasonable prices and great service. Shoutouts to Mario as well. Excellent and trustworthy car repair. read more

Very impressed! I crashed my 2006 Mercedes e350 and my mechanic recommended Class Auto and said they do all body work for the Long Beach Mercedes dealer. The first two places I had initially called endorsed themselves by saying, "Uhhhh, ya...we have a couple of (Mercedes) before" which left me screaming for the hills and into the hands of a shop that was actually certified. I worked almost exclusively with Ted, who was fantastic. I was a little uneasy when they initially didn't contact me for 24hrs after the tow truck driver dropped off my car and Class Auto wasn't sure who I was, but everything after that was perfect. The car literally looks brand new after having nearly $10,000 damage to it. It's been 2 weeks and the car continues to run perfectly, and looks brand new. When I arrived to pick it up (right when they promised it would be ready, too), Ted even took me into their garage to show me a couple similar cars and further explain what they did to restore my baby back to its original condition. They even detailed it, so the car was absolutely immaculate and smelled of fresh shampoo from all the carpet treatment they had done on the inside when I picked it up. The office was clean, professional, and the staff was helpful. In fact, they even called me a couple days afterward simply to check in and ask if I was happy and how the car was running. All in all, if anything (God forbid) were to happen again, I would definitely take it here. There are many situations in life where shopping around for cheapest prices is a good idea but, when you need your car fixed properly, this is NOT one of those situations. THIS is the place to go to for professional and legitimate work which, in turn, will save you interminable headaches down the road. I have already recommended Class Auto to a friend or two and will continue to do so. Thanks guys, really appreciate the professionalism & quality of work! AJ read more

Recently got a large scratch on the bumper on my 2013 Toyota Prius. I called Class Auto Center and Steve Vreeken picked up the phone. Steve was friendly and helpful. I left my car at the shop and Steve drove me home and also offered to pick me up if I needed a ride back to the auto center when the car was ready. Steve called me during the week the car was in the shop to tell me a new part needed to be ordered and offered to cover the cost. I paid for the part and Steve said that he would have my car detailed instead, wash, wax etc. The repair was excellent and car looked like it did the first day I bought it. Thank You! read more

Class Auto Center is absolutely great to work with and the work they did in repairing my eight month old Cayenne GTS was amazing. Totally unable to tell the repaired area from the remainder of the vehicle. Hopefully will never again need a body shop but if I do, my vehicle will be at Class Auto. read more

Awesome detail work ! Very professional Business ! Ted took care of everything. Secretary and porters were very nice ! I had my car detailed to perfection ! My 2006 magnum looks newer than a 2015. And they even dropped off my car when they were completed ! Great service keep up the work ! read more

Fixed my car and broken already! I took it to place near Irvine and it was half cost. Would not suggest go here.

Very disappointed with the customer service received at Class Auto! Was given incorrect information and now they want me to pay for it (storage fees for the time wasted due to this incorrect info given to me by 2 representatives from their shop)!!! No follow-through (did not send in info to insurance like supposed to and said they did), no ownership (was told they don't care if I was given wrong information), total runaround (told one thing by one person, another by someone else--no one can give me a straight answer), and they want me to pay cash only??? Tom is horrible to work with! Very pushy, aggressive and intentionally misleads you trying to get as much cash from you as possible. Eric, the general manager, does not take responsibility for what his employees say/do (or say and NOT do). Check BBB and yahoo reviews--several complaints from others as well. I wish I had checked before I took my car there... read more
