I had a car accident where I hit the side of my Land Rover into the guard rail on the Taconic…read moreHighway in order to avoid a deer that was crossing. The side of the suv took a terrible hit on the body. I'm absolutely so glad I found BTO Autoworks through word of mouth. They do not have the biggest online presence, but rest assured they are a GREAT autobody shop. Ray and his staff did a great job fixing my suv back to new. What I appreciated most from my visit, is the clearly defined timeline and the no nonsense. I checked two other auto body shops in Poughkeepsie and they were telling me there would be a 30 day wait... or they would tell me to leave the car and wait an undefined amount of time. It was clear my suv wouldn't be prioritized for bigger projects. With BTO Autoworks there's none of that, it is strictly professional. It took about a week to get parts and a week for labor. I highly recommend anyone that needs auto body work go there. They are very good and have a quality of workmanship. 5 Stars

How could it be possible that I am the first to review this absolutely first-rate auto body shop?…read more Is it because they don't have a Happy Hour or serve exquisite quinoa salads? No matter, if you need the service (emphasis on this word!) of a highly principled, well respected team to sort out the mess after an auto mishap, Ray Kennett and his lads are the ones to turn to even if Poughkeepsie is not your backyard. They are perfectionists and also your advocate with the insurance world, something the owner knows backwards and forwards. I am embarrassed to admit that we have been clients a good half dozen times over the past twenty years and, each time, we have been made whole again by BTO and left grateful for the initial recommendation. These guys are the best, period.

Mann s Body Shop, Replace an Engine on my Chevy s10 pickup. The engine he installed and claimed was…read morea good working engine had a head gasket problem, that was leaking fluid in to the block, needless to say the truck only went for 3 months before going bad, Frank, only said that he had the misfortune of hiring a bad mechanic (Terry which he has fired since than). He said at first he was going to get me another engine. just give him a little time, I called him back months later at which time he told me that it was my tough luck and he was not going to do anything for me; He charged me $ 2400.00 and he would not stand behind it.

And the shop was recommended by a high-end car dealership owner from just down 52 for a brand new Mini Cooper with scratches and a quarter panel replacement for a young Hyundai Santa Fe. Both cars came back looking like new in short order with great service from nice people. Both jobs were auto body repairs, not mechanical ones. My highest recommendation for body repairs.

How are these people in business! I dropped off a tool to be fixed. The kid at the desk tells me…read more5 to 10 business days. I start calling after 2 weeks. It at least 4 subsequent calls to get a call back from the owner. He told me wo problem, he's working on it. 3 more weeks pass, nothing. THEY DON'T RETURN CALLS, which is all it would have taken. Today's call ended up getting heated. The useless kid at the desk told me to go fuck myself, then hung up on me. Then the tool wouldn't answer the phone so i could find out what time they were open. literally after a dozen calls back he finally answers. I told him i was coming to get the tool. I get to the store and it's on the floor just inside the front door with not a soul in sight. What garbage! Now you wrote back "Eric K. Business Owner Aug 8, 2025 Thanks for your generous words Tony. You brought a peace of equipment in that was battery operated with no battery. How in the world are we suppose to test and diagnose the unit with out the power source for the machine. I'm the owner I called you personally the same day that you dropped it off. Don't disrespect my employee on the phone. That is why he told you to come get your unit and take elsewhere thanks buddy. Hopefully we will see you soon" My words were not generous enough my friend. In fact I had the battery with me when I brought it to your so called shop. I asked the kid if he needed it, he said NO. Next, if you called me, why wouldn't you have asked me for the battery? As far as your useless employee, and I say useless because he didn't even know how to provide me with a receipt when I dropped off my tool. I disrespect no one, until they disrespect me. Get your shit together, especially before you try to threaten someone.

These people are terrible. I realized the hard way that all the bad reviews about them were true!…read moreThey are legit scammers. They charged me 60 bucks and told me my bike was good after 2 weeks being there, then when I when to pick it up the bike wouldn't start and the gas hose was not connected to the carb property. I left the bike there and after another week of me begging them to work on my bike they said "We haven't work on many of these were running out of options" Long story short I picked up my bike, they never gave me my 60 dollars back when I took off the tank to see if they even took apart the carburetor they didn't do anything other than throw carb cleaner at it. They made me go through 2 brand new batteries cuz they don't know how to use a digital multimeter had to change the voltage regulator on my bike. Common sense, most of these stuff is so simple when I checked the spark plug it looked like it was clearly burnt so I got another one for like 3 dollars and the bike started right the fuck up. I don't know much about bikes that's why I bring my 03 ktm 625cc to a shop so that I don't fuck it up myself and they don't even bother to check the spark plug most importantly tight the gas hose to the carb in a safe way. SCAMMERS. Terrible work ethic. Shows that anybody could own a shitty business in this country. I'm not mechanic but I will always try to work on my bikes/car the best I can so that I don't have to deal with clowns like these!
