Highly recommended and a great family owned, family friendly reasonable independent shop that will not only give great dependable service but a lot less than going into the dealership!

There were several items needing immediate attention following my initial input and their thorough diagnostic process. DNA's Customer Service team member, Miquel Mendoza, walked me through findings and provided detailed info to all my questions prior to my OK'ing the work. I knew, due to previous repairs at DNA that their Technicians, Antonio Molina & Victor Ferreira would ensure that the repair work would be guaranteed and done in a timely manner. To the entire team, some of whom I have previously known, and those folks behind the scenes, that help take a local business to the next level - I am grateful! Rachel

I brought my car in for repair work after an accident, and while that portion was completed, the…read moreoverall experience was frustrating and poorly managed. Once my car was transferred to the auto body shop, it became a completely separate system, team, and process--and the two sides clearly do not communicate. This disconnect caused confusion around payments, delays, and unnecessary out-of-pocket costs on my end, including having to pay $700 for a rental car that I originally was told I wouldn't need for that long. I was told my car would be dropped off in Novato once I made a payment. I paid the auto body shop, but the repair shop had a separate payment link that I couldn't access from my phone. I showed them the issue in real time, but instead of helping or offering another way to pay, they dismissed it and said it "worked fine" for them. Because of miscommunication between their teams, my car was not actually in Novato as promised, and I had to wait around for them to figure it out, which caused even more delays and inconvenience. On top of that, the person I was dealing with refused to call and help coordinate getting my car released or delivered until I paid through their system, even though their payment link was not working properly for me, which delayed me further and resulted in additional out-of-pocket costs due to their poor communication. No one took ownership of the situation, and the staff was rude and dismissive throughout the process. While the repair work itself may have been completed, the experience across both businesses was disorganized, unprofessional, and lacked basic customer service. I would not recommend.
