My sister had her car repaired here after hitting a deer. Her local mechanic (who had been…read moremaintaining the car for years) inspected the car thoroughly and found that all fluids were full and there were no leaks whatsoever before delivering the car to Collision Specialists. After a lengthy delay due to shortage of parts, my sister finally got her car back around Christmas. After only 25 or 30 miles, the engine light came on and the car started smelling hot so she stopped driving the car and had a friend check the engine oil as well as the transmission oil. The trans oil was about 1 quart low. My sister's mechanic then inspected the car and discovered that the engine had blown - most likely a spun engine bearing. I called Collision Specialists and was told that they did not make any repairs to the coolant or transmission cooler lines and that they never had this happen in 30 years of being in business. The car is a Toyota Camry with 150,000 miles and was very well maintained - coincidence? Something is fishy here......

I had great service from Collision Specialists several times in the past but took my car (2000…read morePontiac, original owner) there for a routine oil change and air conditioning service and was told I needed a $500 A/C compressor even though the air conditioning was working fine before that. A short time later I noticed my negative battery cable was cut almost straight across. I can't say for certain who cut the cable, or if they did anything to my A/C compressor, but I would be careful.

Luckily she got off the next exit and got to a small hotel in Alamont, IL. She called me frantic and we found Interstate 70 Towing on Google! I called them up, around midnight. Richard answered. I told him what happened and he asked if she was at a safe place for the night! How thoughtful! I said yes, and he told me to email him all the info and he would send a truck to get her and the vehicle and get her to Effingham to their new facility to see what they could do! I don't know if this is why, but he sent his sweet wife in the tow truck to get my daughter, and that made such a big difference. She was so scared and had already had a scare with some men following her on the interstate going to Indiana, so she was really on edge. They were wonderful to her, and her phone service didn't have signal there, so I called to check on her and he said she was just fine, visiting with him and his wife, like she was their own! Made my heart feel good and my faith in humanity greatly restored! They had her fixed up and on the road in no time at all! So blessed and thankful for these wonderful people! If we are ever out that way, we will definitely stop by and give some big hugs for making our daughter feel safe and secure so far from home! Thank you again!
