Let me just say this was an absolutely horrible experience from start to finish. I don't want to…read moreexaggerate or be dramatic, but I want to strongly encourage you to take your business elsewhere. If you're already dealing with the stress of a car accident, the last thing you need is a shop that adds more stress, confusion, and pressure to an already difficult time. Here's exactly what happened: I chose Hugh's Body Shop after getting several quotes. On the surface, their shop looked clean and professional, and although they were the most expensive, I figured quality would justify the price. Unfortunately, that assumption could not have been more wrong. From the beginning, I explained clearly that I wanted to keep costs down by handling all the interior work myself -- things like reinstalling the seats, airbags, seat belts, and trim. I only needed them to handle the door and corner of the cab. The quote I was given was high but still within reason, so I agreed and scheduled a drop-off date about a month out. After dropping off my truck, communication and timelines completely fell apart. A job that was supposed to take a couple of weeks turned into months. Every time I checked in, I was told "just a little longer," but progress was always delayed. When I finally went to pick up my truck, I was shocked to find a significant upcharge added to the original agreed-upon price. When I questioned it, Jared reviewed the charges and admitted to me that I had a point -- so he initially agreed I could pay the original quoted amount. But when I handed him the check, he refused to give me my keys unless I paid the extra balance. That kind of behavior -- holding my property until I paid more than we agreed on -- felt like bullying and intimidation. I was stunned and just wanted my vehicle back, so I reluctantly paid the additional amount. The justification for the extra charge was "additional frame time." But I had personally measured and photographed my truck's frame before leaving it with them, and when I got it back, nothing was different except a bit of spray paint. On top of that, there were new issues with my truck that were not part of the original damage. Jared told me in person that he'd fix those, but when I followed up by phone, he refused. This experience left me extremely disappointed and concerned for others. What looks like a reputable business seems to be run by someone unprofessional, dishonest, and unwilling to stand by their word. Please -- learn from my mistake. There are plenty of honest, competent shops out there. I truly regret trusting Hugh's Body Shop with my vehicle.

This was on a Saturday so with help I pushed the truck out of the way and left it parked there for the rest of the weekend. We (my granddaughter and I) were offered a ride home by another person who was dropping off trash. I called the garage in Forest which I have been using for years, but they told me they did not have a towing service but they said they used a towing service out of Rustburg. This was a long way to travel so I then went on-line and did a google search for garages. I chose Jimmy's Automotive as as being the closest but otherwise I knew nothing about them. On Monday morning I gave them a call and he said he would bring a flat-bed truck and meet me at the site. I immediately left (4 miles away) and he showed up within five minutes after I had gotten there. He loaded the truck up and took it to his shop. On Tuesday afternoon he called and said that he replaced the electronic ignition module and I could come by at any time to pick it up, which I did that afternoon, and it ran perfectly! My costs were very reasonable and I am very satisfied!
