    Improper use of glue on door causing paint damage.

    I'm really disappointed that I have to write this. I initially had a great experience with this shop, even leaving a glowing review. However, they now refuse to stand behind their work. I was in a vehicle accident almost seven years ago and was recommended this shop by a former co-worker.The person I originally worked with is no longer there working here, and now I can't even get a callback from the owner, who avoids responsibility. Recently, I noticed that the original door trim, which was held on by double-sided tape, started peeling and oxidizing. I decided to use a heat gun to remove it. On the passenger side, everything went smoothly.However, on the driver's side, where LOAB did the repair work, I discovered they had used a very strong adhesive to reattach the trim without consulting me. This wasn't communicated to me at the time. When I tried to remove the trim, it pulled off the paint and clear coat on both doors, leaving noticeable damage (see attached photos).I called LOAB, hoping they would stand behind their work, but each time I asked to speak with the owner, I was told he was too busy to call me back. Instead, the office staff informed me that they would not help, despite this issue being entirely due to their negligence and failure to follow industry standards.I have changed my 5-star review to 1 star because this shop is a scam. After 45 years in business, if they rely on poorly executed work and cutting corners, it's time to reconsider their practices. This negative review could have been avoided if the owner had any integrity and simply returned my call. It's pathetic to have office staff handle the situation instead of addressing it personally.

    Employees were so nice and helpful. Easy to book an appointment and they got a dent out of my bumper free of charge! Highly recommend!

    Travis needed the car for an hour to remove the front end and inspect the extent of any further undercarriage damage.

(Not always the case at mechanics/ car service businesses.) He answered all of my questions in detail. Never did I feel rushed or pressured. We decided on bringing the car by to get a better view and quote. Unlike other places I went to before calling Rudy, they made it seem like it was going to be a lot of time and money, however Rudy honestly told me that it would be a pretty easy fix and he could do it in just a couple of days! Paired with a very reasonable starting price quote as well as more options and pricing for potential future maintenance. Very professional, genuine, and fair. When I got my car back the damage was completely gone and had a seamless paint job to match! Literally like it never happened! I had trust that the job would get done and be good, but Rudy honestly exceeded my expectations, and without breaking the bank! I am so grateful to have found someone local who I can trust with any and all auto body repairs! His work speaks for itself, and really lives up to the quality name. If you are looking to feel confident that the job is going to get done right, call Rudy!

That alone cost $400. Afterward, we were told an additional $1,100 in repairs were required--many of which were grossly overpriced. For example, the tires they quoted were nearly double what I could have purchased at a tire shop. A rear fender reflector--$7.99 on Amazon--was quoted at $30 here, with the excuse that it had to be OEM from VW. Fine. We waited two weeks for the part to arrive, only to be told they ordered the wrong reflector. Another week passed before the correct one came in. When we finally returned, the reflector installation took 15 minutes. I specifically asked if we could wait for it, but was told to leave the car because it was "in a long line" and might not be ready until the next day. Thirty minutes later, I got a call saying it was done. In total, this required four separate trips, over 100 miles of driving, and not once did we receive an apology, acknowledgment of mistakes, or any offer of a discount. Instead, I was met with dismissive responses like "it is what it is" and "it's always something." The person I dealt with was snarky, condescending, and completely unconcerned with customer service. Mistakes happen--but the attitude and lack of accountability here were unacceptable. I would NOT recommend this place to anyone.
