I used Yelp for a few businesses on repair estimates for my dented front bumper cover on my Rav4…read more Did you know that the car's frame is mostly steel or aluminum to protect drivers and passengers, sensors, electronics, etc. but in most cases the outside cover is bendable plastic for aerodynamic reasons? The bad news is that plastic deforms too much from a collision, you can't just massage it back to shape with a hair dryer. Also, who knows if anything else on the car behind the plastic is damaged or out of alignment. California Collision came to the rescue and was able to replace my bumper cover, have it painted, and then recalibration done for the various car sensors to eliminate fault codes. Even minor collisions can cause sensors to be faulty, so don't assume it's a cosmetic thing and try to cut corners and get your vehicle repaired properly. The job took a few hours one day to paint match, then a separate full day to install, recalibrate, and test drive the vehicle to ensure bo more fault codes. George was extremely friendly and transparent with the repair process. He even gave me a tour of his shop and explained the workflow. Its a family business as his son and daughter also work here. He obviously values work-life balance and is closed Friday-Sunday. Body Shops are not cheap but if you need a thorough repair and want things done right, I highly recommend California Collision. If paying out of pocket, use a debit card with a high spend limit to avoid credit card fees.

If you get into a bad accident, the insurance company will breathlessly insist that you need to…read morehave your vehicle towed to some chain body shop far away...so they can quickly total it and hit you with lowball offers. Don't do that. After I wisely had my car towed home instead, I took a deep breath, talked to my regular mechanic, and he recommend I send it to George at California Collisions. This was a very good choice. George and his staff did the grueling work of haggling with the insurance company, multiple times, over weeks. He also did an excellent job reconstructing my vehicle within the constraints of the insurance coverage. I got my adventure wagon back in good-as-new condition. Customer service and communication were excellent. About 15,000 miles later the rebuild has been tested and proven. Happy to support and rep this business.

I haven't even had my car repaired here yet so I will update this review after... but I already…read morehave a good feeling that I chose the right shop. From just the first phone call they were ready to help. Immediately got me in to see what is needed, started working on getting the parts, answering all of my questions, and have already been so helpful just in these first steps. They seemed genuinely determined to help me get back on the road as quickly as possible which is so important. They do work on Teslas and seem very knowledgeable about them. I'm still in the beginning stages of the repair process, but based on the experience I've had so far, I would absolutely recommend this shop to anyone, especially Tesla owners. They took the time to listen, help, gave me personal advice, and made a stressful situation feel much more manageable.

Hopefully, you won't need A dent repairs anytime soon, but if you do happen to "hit the jackpot," RJ is the person to see.

"Owner Paints Horse Trailer, Sleeps in Trailer to Confirm Quality"…read more The owner of this business insists upon top-quality. It doesn't matter if it's a car, boat, plane, or horse trailer. However, Mark does not like to paint locomotives. Anyway, this horse trailer was destined to become a mobile bar. Yes I know that sounds odd, but that's the gospel truth. Naturally if you want to convert your horse trailer to a bar, it must be impeccable. So when Mark painted this trailer, he had to be positive there were no drips. I mean, just imagine if you were guzzling a beer and paint drops started plopping from the ceiling. That would be no fun! Plus it would add an unknown flavor to your beer. So of course, Mark had no choice but to sleep in the horse trailer. That way he could be positive there were no paint drips or drops. (Sleeping in a horse trailer is like going to a YMCA Camp, but without the archery.) I hear Mark's wife was not pleased with this turn of events, but the customer always comes first. That's just the type of man he is. I have known the owner of this business for years. He is a person of great integrity and trustworthiness. Whenever I have horse trailers to paint I always bring them to Mark.

Upon finding the shop via the Tesla app, I chose this shop based on how close the shop was and the reviews. They were very professional and transparent on the estimate, and helped me when my claims agent via Tesla was being very unresponsive.

There were a few hiccups along the way...with repairs and wait times, but everything got resolved. Josh, general manager was overseeing my job. He went above and beyond to help. In my experience, he saved me money and lowered my stress level. I could not have had a better experience, truly!

While I was waiting, I went to two different auto shops in the area and had really different experiences. Brooks Auto was on a whole different level from the moment I walked in. Their lobby and facilities look so nice that I actually thought the prices were going to be through the roof, especially since I was having a few extra scrapes handled at the same time. I worked with Patrick, and he stayed in touch through the whole process. He gave me clear updates and a timeline that actually felt realistic. They even finished the car almost half a week early and still apologized like they were behind. Everyone there was friendly and helpful, and the whole experience just felt smooth and straightforward. What surprised me the most was the quality of the work. My car came back looking better than it did the day I bought it. I had never had it waxed before, but since they repaired both sides they went ahead and waxed the whole thing. The paint match was perfect and even the areas they didn't work on looked great. It was the first time I picked up my car from a repair shop and felt honestly impressed instead of just relieved to be done.

Most importantly, the repairs on my car are flawless. I hope I won't need a body shop again anytime soon, but if I do, I know exactly where I'm going.
