I was notified that my vehicle was ready for pickup. I rearranged my schedule, returned my rental, and went to collect the car. Shortly after, multiple system warnings appeared related to sensors/calibration that were not present prior to the repair. When I brought this up, I was told it could be due to "pre-existing front damage" and that recalibration might require taking it to a dealership at my own expense. This was frustrating, especially since the vehicle did not have these warnings before the repair. Being told the car was ready when it clearly was not resulted in wasted time and now having to secure another rental. That added unnecessary stress and inconvenience. To their credit, they have now taken the vehicle back in to reassess the issue. I'm currently waiting on an update and will revise this review depending on how they follow through and whether the problem is fully resolved. If you are getting collision work involving sensors or ADAS systems, make sure you receive clear documentation of pre- and post-repair scans and confirm responsibility for recalibration before picking up the vehicle.

I picked up my vehicle on a Friday because they said it was "ready." I did not drive my car until Monday and noticed the Driver Assistance was restricted. These are sensors, they were working perfectly fine before I took the car in. The work they performed was for the rear bumper and trunk of my vehicle. I took the vehicle back that Wednesday and I did not hear back from them until I called on Friday. One person told me that they were "almost done correcting the issue and should be done in an hour or so. Then at 4:30 pm that Friday 3/20/26 they told me that it's looking like Monday. Monday comes and no one follows up with me. Now Tuesday 3/24/26 I call again at 11:30am and they tell me that they wont be able to fix the issue because insurance does not want to pay for it. (even though it wasn't an issue prior to drop off) I was told that recalibration might require taking it to a dealership at my own expense. I let them know that I did not have this issue prior to dropping the car off. The estimator also told me that they sublet the calibration out so it is not their issue! Picked up my car and still having same issue and they refuse to correct it.

I just picked up my 2022 Tacoma pickup from fix auto. I was in an accident a couple of weeks ago. When I saw my truck, I was so extremely glad to see what an awesome, Beautiful, outstanding job they had done on it. It actually looked better than it did before the accident. It also looked like the truck had been detailed, inside and out. All during the time it was in their care, I was informed on a regular basis as to what stage it was at during the process. I also received it earlier than originally expected. The day before pickup I received a call from a gentlemen named Lee to ask me about a certain color detail on a part. He also sent me a photo. I told him that it was not the correct color and let him know the color it should be. Lee immediately told me he would get it corrected and that I could still pick it up the next day. When I arrived to pick it up, Lee met me and took me to my truck. As I said previously I was ecstatic they had done such a great job. Lee and all the staff at fix auto were very friendly and helpful. The cost of the repair was great as well. I would tell anyone who needs auto body repair, they need to bring their vehicle to Fix Auto. They were referred to me by AAA. Best referral ever.

Literally smears all over the hood.

I brought my car in after a tree branch dented my fender. While the repair itself was okay, the finish was completely unacceptable. They never color sanded or polished the paint just gave it a wash and called it done. I took it back, hoping they'd make it right, but again, it looked untouched. My father restores classic American muscle cars, and we both immediately saw the lack of attention to detail. This wasn't polished not even close. This shop is a textbook example of workers cutting corners, assuming the customer won't know the difference. Unfortunately for them, I do. Their good reviews are misleading trust someone who's been around cars their whole life: this shop doesn't take pride in its work. Customer service was polite, but professionalism and quality were seriously lacking. I wasted my time twice and regret not going elsewhere. Don't make the same mistake.

Stay away from this shady shop. Referred by AAA insurance, started process same day as accident, front desk staff was courteous, took my car in and began repairs. Less than 1 week later, the car was finished, and I thought wow that was fast! Perhaps it was too fast... when we came to pick up the Lexus, the drivers side brake light wasn't working. Luckily, my husband noticed before we left the lot. The light was working fine after the accident and worked fine before the shop worked on the car. As this is a safety issue, we did not let the car leave the shop. They found the problem but claimed it was not accident related. They would not believe us that it was caused by the accident on the drivers side rear quarter panel and rear door. They insisted that we take the car to Lexus to have them perform a diagnostic test to determine what the cause was, at our own cost. Why should we pay for that when the shop can subcontract the diagnosis fees. Lexus determined that the part failed as a result of the accident or improper removal of the tail light. I 100% feel that a more thorough pre and post vehicle inspection would have definitely prevented this major headache to us. Checking the lights and safety items are functioning properly is a major concern letting a vehicle go back to a customer with a non functioning brake light can lead to a completely preventable tragedy. I feel that the inspector and the company are covering for each other and not including items that would typically be covered with an auto repair. My car remained with fix auto for 2 weeks while we were going back and forth trying to get them to fix the tail light. They wanted us to pay 500-700 to fix the tail light. We didn't pay and we also didn't have a deductible to pay either as the other party accepted responsibility. It added to the stress of an already stressful situation. We eventually had the car towed to Lexus and they fixed the car within 2 days and everything was fine. Also, my all weather floor mats went missing. I don't know if it was fix not reinstalling them after the repair...but they aren't there. So save yourself the trouble and go somewhere else. I don't recommend this place to anyone.

Awards!

I was in an accident which is stressful, frustrating, and let's be real slightly embarrassing. I dropped off my car this morning with them after a two week wait, which had me frustrated, but I can now understand why there is a wait for this place! The whole crew is kind, welcoming, and thorough. I never once felt unwelcome, stressed, or ignored. Constantly being called by name and not ma'am, miss, or any other variation. This world is lacking human connection and communication is being lost which causes customer service to be a thing of the past but not here! Jasmine was incredibly, a woman who I may assume is the office manager was so sweet, a few "car doctors" grabbing coffee or passing by were kind, and the gentleman helping me with paperwork was so helpful! I have no idea what the outcome of my car is yet but I will tell you I feel unbelievably comfortable with my car in their hands.

proof of them returning my car in worse condition that it was in

Absolutely terrible. Referred by AAA insurance. Had me take in my vehicle for a couple days for a simple bumper repair from a minor rear end incident. Just for them to call and tell me they are are not gonna fix the car. We then scheduled a pick up time for monday the friday they delivered the news of there incompetence. Just to find out that the bumper was still missing on the car and they have not put it back on the vehicle. They also notified as a shock that they were charging me $410 for holding the vehicle and not doing anything. I had to call my insurance just for them to communicate and pay for the fair. (The agent was also very surprised by this information and was upset as well that they don't tell you there is a fee just to take in vehicle regardless of weather its a claim with insurance or not at drop off) Took me an over an hour to obtain my vehicle. If you want an actual competent, trustworthy reliable shop that is going to respect your time. PLEASE AVOID!! what ever you do if you get referred to this establishment PLEASE SAY NO and GO TO ANOTHER SHOP. I recommend Tokyo Automotive or Caliber Collision. At the very least they don't scam you by charging you excessive amounts of money just to hold your car hostage.

I'm not very knowledgeable about auto mechanics and intend to seek help from a trustworthy and…read morenearby place. I have an old Mercedes (C230, 2004, 43k miles) with the "Check engine" light on. Since it's primarily used for dropping off and picking up my son, I decided to seek help immediately. Initially, I chose a Euro Car Doctor closest to my place, but they turned me down. They wasted my time and emotions by giving me no hope and insisting that my car's engine harness part must be replaced. They even claimed that the part couldn't be found anywhere in the country. I was shocked but still had little hope, so I decided to take matters into my own hands and started a project. I sent messages out on Yelp asking if any shop could help, and Mike responded! I was still skeptical because I felt that what Euro Car Doctor had warned me about could be true. However, I decided to go the fair route. I disclosed all my concerns to Mike, and he simply responded in a firm tone that his team could help. I visited BMB RhineTrade, feeling scared and uncertain. But I saw some positive signs. The place was packed, which made me think that it might take weeks for my car to be worked on. However, everything was incredibly straightforward and easy. It was almost as if he read my mind. He met with me, looked through the diagnostic report found by Euro Car Doctor, offered a loaner, and got back to me within hours with a full repair report and an approximate cost. To my surprise, my car didn't need an engine harness replacement after all. And it was fixed within 2 days! Other than that, Mike was patient and let us ask questions. He convinced us from the point that I was desperate to get rid of my old Mercedes because I thought it couldn't be repaired to the point where I realized that my car is worth maintaining and still has a long life ahead of it! Thank you, Mike and BMB Rhinetrade team, for helping me. I know I had to pay for your service, but I still want to send my appreciation note. Your service not only exceeded our expectations, but what you've done should be learned by other services all around. There are so many ways to communicate with your peers and clients to provide solutions or let them leave feeling regretful. I am more than delighted and have fallen in love with my car all over again!

They were highly communicative and did an incredibly THOROUGH job, uncovering over $7,000 worth of hidden repairs on a car I was about to buy for $12,400. The comprehensive digital report they texted was remarkably detailed yet very easy to read and understand. The service was only $250, which is on the lower end compared to other quotes I found. Payment was also handled seamlessly via a link. I am so thankful for their expertise and honesty; if I buy a German vehicle in the future, BMB Rhinetrade will absolutely be my go-to maintenance shop!

"Like it never happened" is the standard when it comes to collision repair, and I'd say these guys come very close. You can tell that they care about their work and take pride in its quality. We have used them for everything from a minor scrape to a significant collision repair and always walked away impressed. You can probably find some cheaper places, but I doubt you could save more than 10% or so. Greensky doesn't often source used parts that I can tell, but they do look for opportunities to repair rather than replace, and they think critically about the cosmetic and functional considerations of each repair decision. One definitely doesn't get the sense that they are "out to get you". All that said, I would still treat their initial quote as a minimum rather than a guarantee -- both times the final bill came in a little higher than estimated. I understand this is common in the industry. One thing that Greensky is not great about is the pre-sales process. The vibe I get is that they are eager to get to work, but they don't offer virtual estimates, there is a minimum spend for even an in person estimate, and they charge quite steeply for parking if you leave your car there. My overall takeaway is that they care about their work and would just like their customers to respect their craft and otherwise get out of the way.

I can't say enough about how Angela and her team were so welcoming, friendly, and detailed about the whole process of inspecting my Lexus, providing a quote, explaining each job the team would do, and the pricing was reasonable. They even got me a car rental with Enterprise at a discounted rate, who picked me up and took me to the rental place. It was a quick turnaround of few days to remove my old worn bumper, replace it with a new painted one, they even buffed my headlights, removed old worn yellow door protectors, and added touch up paint where chips were (all free of charge!). I did see a few minor things that still needed to be taken care of, I showed up the next Friday, they took care of it in under 2 hours, they even removed some old worn plastic film protectors from my rear doors as well free of charge.
