The staff at Mohawk Collision is exceptional, so easy to work with and professional. I was able to bring my car to them very quickly after it was damaged. They kept me abreast of parts availability and progress of the needed work, and had my car back to me in a short amount of time compared to what I hear from folks who used other auto-body shops. My car looks great and runs great. Mohawk Collision went above and beyond by cleaning the inside of my car, too. I would definitely use them again without checking elsewhere. Thank you Mohawk Collision.

--------------------- What Happened:…read more --------------------- Winter storm damage from a falling tree branch (windshield area and frame). --------------------- Their Estimate: --------------------- $3,985.17 (preliminary estimate grand total) Comparable Estimate: $375.00 for "Front Windshield and Frame." --------------------- Bottom Line: --------------------- I would not recommend this shop if you are trying to avoid being overcharged. --------------------- Full Details: --------------------- During a recent winter storm, a tree branch fell onto my vehicle and damaged the windshield area and surrounding frame. I brought my 2009 Chevy Malibu in for an estimate because I wanted the frame addressed, the windshield repaired/replaced as appropriate, and the affected area repainted. J Smitty Automotive provided a preliminary estimate with a Grand Total of $3,985.17. For context, I purchased this vehicle for approximately $6,000, so being quoted nearly $4,000 for the repair was not reasonable to me. What left the interaction with a bad impression was that there was no attempt to recommend a more cost-effective path forward or explain alternatives - only a very high estimate. I then obtained another written estimate elsewhere for the same problem area ("Front Windshield and Frame") totaling $375.00, which I found far more reasonable. To avoid any confusion: the repairs shown in my before - and - after photos were NOT performed by J Smitty Automotive; they were completed by the other shop after I declined this estimate. Based on this experience, I would not recommend proceeding here unless you are comfortable with a risk of significantly inflated pricing.

Update: I met with the owner to pay for the work they did to put on a new bumper on my car. The…read moreprice they gave me was $1,200 to put a new bumper on my car. Joe argued with me that it cost more than he quoted me to fix the bumper and asked me to pay an additional $700 to "cover his costs." I reluctantly agreed and paid him $1,900 to put a new bumper on my car. He gave me the keys and told me where my car was parked. I went to retrieve my car and ALL OF MY PERSONAL BELONGINGS WERE MISSING FROM THE CAR. I asked the mechanic who was there where my items were and he told me that Joe told him that the car was his now and that I had already sold the car to Joe and that he threw away everything that was in the car. I said are you kidding me, I never sold my car to him. The mechanic told me "well, Joe told me that you already sold the car to me and I thought this car was mine." THEY TOOK MY PLATES OFF THE CAR, TOOK MY REGISTRATION OFF MY CAR, CLEARED OUT MY GLOVE COMPARTMENT (THREW AWAY MY REGISTRATION AND INSURANCE INFORMATION) AND ALL OF MY PERSONAL BELONGINGS (JUMPER CABLES, CLOTHES, BAG OF TOOLS, BOX OF K-CUPS AND RECEIPTS I HAD IN THE CAR). I noticed that the registration was missing from the car and again asked the mechanic about this. I told him that it's illegal to remove the registration from someone's car. He told me again "Joe told me that you sold him the car, I thought the car was mine. He was talking about having dealer plates on the car and it is very likely he was using my car for personal use. I WAS SHOCKED!!! I should have called the police right then, but was just in a state of shock and left with my car. Later that day I was looking at the new bumper they put on my car and THEY PUT A BROKEN, CRACKED AND SCRATCHED USED BUMPER ON MY CAR. I called Joe and told him that all my personal belongings were missing from the car (he responded by saying if you think items are missing from your car then you should file a claim with your insurance company), I told him that you also took my registration off of the car and threw away everything that was in my glove compartment (he responded by saying "you sold me your car"), I told him I never sold you my car, that's a lie, you work in the auto industry and you know you never had a bill of sale or a signed title, what you did was illegal, I told him and to top it off you put a broken, cracked and scratched used bumper on my car and I would like to come back by your shop and get my money back (he responded "You wanted me to put a used bumper on your car and I don't have any of your money") I said that's another lie, I gave you $1,900 and why would I pay you to put a broken and cracked bumper on my car? I said there are two ways we can go about this, I can come down to your store and you can give me the money back or I can take you to court (he responded "I don't have any of your money - do what you think you have to do). That same day I filed a police report with the Green Island police department. The police were shocked by everything that I shared with them and said you need to take him to court and sue him. I will be taking Joe to court to get my money back.
