Last week, I accidentally damaged the passenger-side mirror on my Mercedes while pulling out of my garage. As anyone who has damaged a car they care about can understand, I felt terrible about it for several days. Driving without a side mirror was also surprisingly uncomfortable and made me feel unsafe. Over the weekend, I searched Yelp for several body shops and decided to visit a few of them on Monday. The first shop I went to gave me an estimate that honestly shocked me. Then I decided to drive a little farther and try GAD. I noticed that GAD had an almost unbelievable 5.0-star rating, and now I completely understand why. Arthur, the owner, personally came out to speak with me. From the very beginning, he was kind, patient, straightforward, and genuinely honest. It has been a long time since I have met a business owner who made such a sincere impression on me. He checked the parts and pricing on his computer right in front of me and gave me an estimate that was far more reasonable than I expected. Even better, the car was repaired perfectly in just one day. But what impressed me most was what happened beyond the repair itself. Arthur and his team didn't simply fix the damaged mirror. Without my even asking, they checked other small details around the car, cleaned everything beautifully, and returned my Mercedes looking almost like a new car again. That kind of care and pride in one's work is very rare these days. Going to GAD turned out to be one of the best decisions I could have made. I went there looking for someone to repair my car, but I honestly feel as though I also made a good friend. Some people may look at a perfect 5.0 rating and wonder if it can really be true. After my experience, I can say that GAD has earned it. If you ever have a problem with your car, I strongly recommend visiting GAD before making a decision anywhere else. Fair pricing, excellent workmanship, outstanding service, honesty, and genuine respect for customers -- this is what a great body shop should be. Arthur, thank you again for taking such good care of both my car and me. I truly appreciate it. read more

I had an issue with my car and they helped me quickly and efficiently. From the moment I arrived, the staff was extremely friendly, welcoming, and professional. They took the time to take care of the problem right away. They refused to take any payment for their help, which shows how honest and customer-focused they are. I truly appreciate their kindness and highly recommend them to anyone in need of reliable and trustworthy help. read more

Great experience with Gad Auto Body Shop in Glendale. They took care of my car like their own. They don't care about money all they just want is their customer to be happy. They repaired the front damage on my Lexus Tx 500, worked directly with insurance, and kept me updated the whole time. Professional, stress-free, and highly recommended! read more

I am grateful to be able to write such a positive review regarding my experience with Edgar, the manager of GAD Auto Body Shop. He was polite, intelligent, assessed the problem with my Mercedes left mirror, offered to fix it on the spot, explained the technical problem to one of his staff. The staff person had it fixed within 15 minutes and neither of them wanted to charge me. That's unusal in LA to receive a solution to a problem--one that could have cost a lot of money at another place--and not be charged. What I appreciated also was that both Daisy and Judy were helpful in having me send the pictures first, then come in. Arthur stood out in the street to help me back out of their driveway onto San Fernando. They are located at a curve, so it's easy to pass by the first time, then U-turn back turning right into their driveway to the left of the office. More work being done on full bodies of cars behiind. I will return to them the next time my car needs repairing. read more

If you're here checking for reviews you've come to the right spot. Most body shops will lie to you and not let you see their work which ends up them doing the wrong job by using bondo to repair your auto body. Edgar will never do that and will let you see his work and tell you straight out. It's more expensive but it is the right way to do the job and he will always give you the choice on the type of paint you want to use. It's best to go with OEM color code. Like I said it's pricey but he will never over charge you and give you a fair price, take my word for it. He repaired the right driver side door and I was so happy when it was done and happy with the job. You will not regret it give him a chance. Here is a picture to prove his work. read more

I called in advance and made an appointment at this auto repair shop. I explained the problem, and they told me they would take care of everything. However, when I arrived, they said they had no record of my appointment. The mechanic looked at my car and said he didn't know anything about the issue. He connected his computer to my car, reset all the settings in my car's computer, and after that, a bunch of warning lights turned on. When I asked why all these lights appeared, he started Googling for an answer! Then he told me: "Just drive around for a while and the lights will turn off." Of course, the lights never turned off. Not only did they fail to fix the original problem, they actually made everything worse. When I went to another place, they told me that someone had reset all my car's settings through the computer! At the second place, they were able to fix everything properly. This shop works unprofessionally. I do not recommend this place! read more

I brought my Tesla Model Y in because of a misaligned hatchback. They gave me a good estimate of $200 or less for the repair depending on the scope of work and told me it would ready by end of day. I dropped it off the next morning and they ended up having to keep it until the next day. They called me to let me know the job was completed and did the fix for FREE due to the extended time. Major hookup. The repair was perfect and they were really friendly and professional would highly recommend this shop! read more

I recently got into an accident on the freeway huge metal part hit my front bumper. I went on Yelp to find a local body shop and after talking to several body shops in the area I was very comfortable with going with GAD Auto body shop. The moment I walked in the place was organized, clean and the staff was professional (that gave me the confidence that these people take their job serious) I remember going to couple of other shops near by they had documents all over the place the shop looked run down and dirty. What I did next was I wanted to see some of the cars they were working on and I must say the work was AMAZING (they had expensive high end cars compared to my Lexus I felt even more comfortable. Without any hesitation I hired GAD auto body to fix my car. And now that I finally got my car back wow I'm speechless looks brand new and the time frame was done within the time frame I was told. Now I'm telling all my family and friends about this place. read more

Ever since the first time I stepped foot into this body shop, every single one of my vehicles, including every one in my family with a vehicle has been a dedicated customer to GAD Auto Body since then. Not only because Customer Service is good but when they paint your car, it is done to perfection, I have seen how other body shops do work, and it is nowhere, comparable to how good of a job these fellas at GAD do, I've seen them take care of every single one of their customers. doesn't matter how much your car is in price every single job is done to perfection from Kia to rolls Royce. Many times it has happened where extra dents and scratches have been fully taken care of without even asking. The boys here at GAD AutoBody have also referred me to many different vendors, if it was a job that was done out of their body shop, they would lend you the direct contact to the vendor, so you may get the best price. I could sit here and write a whole book about how amazing this body shop is, and it still won't come cool the reality of how good they really do their craftsmanship and handwork... they have that old school workmanship, can't compare to no other.. Like I said, everyone in my family is now a GAD customer also family and friend.. truly blessed to have someone like Ed, Art and everyone else out here to help us with all our vehicle needs when needed. Thank you To The Boyz at GAD AUTO BODY! read more

Can't say enough about this place. Came to drop off my car after someone hit it while it was parked. Mind you this place is extremely busy and super packed. My boy Edgar drove me to enterprise to get a rental and helped out with the deal and checking the rental car for damages. He didn't just drop me off and leave. Within a week my car was done. I have an Alfa Romeo and parts are hard to come by. Picked up my car cleaner than I left it. Customer service is A1 and super professional. Reliable and quality work done by reliable and quality people. Best auto body shop I have been to hands down. read more

I just wanted to thank the guys at GAD auto body shop! I parked my car, and as I was pulling out, my front bumper got caught on the curb. The liner was dragging. I drove over to GAD, and they said that they would take care of me. The man went back and got some fasteners and worked under the car for about 20 minutes, and put things back in place! It allowed me to get on the freeway and drive in to the office. I asked the owner how much it would be, and he said he wasn't going to charge me (I did give a tip to the guy who worked on my car though). I am very appreciative of all of them, they were very considerate and helpful! Thank you again! read more

Glad I brought my car here to fix a cracked fiberglass piece on my Rav4 hybrid. Was referred by Chris at Americas Tires to speak with Edgar. Edgar gave me a fair repair estimate indicating the cost breakdown between materials and labor and approximately how long it would take to repair. Once he was able to procure the part from Toyota Motors it took him the 1.5 days he promised. I appreciate an honest business that gives you the facts upfront and delivers on their word. Good execution. Although my job was fairly easy and not very time consuming it was still a positive experience here. Thanks Edgar. read more
