    Sterling Auto Collision - Sunlight coming through sliding door, when door is "fully closed"

    Sterling Auto Collision

    (47 reviews)

    More than a nightmare. A life changing experience. I had an accident around 10/30/21…read more I waited until 8/22 before I took my 2019 Infinity Q60 red line sport to Sterling Auto collision, (SAC), because I loved my car. It was driving fine. Visibly it looked llike rminor damage. Fender, grill, bumper, and deployed airbag. I've never had a nice car, so I was enjoying it while I could. Thought I'd get a pretty car. Maybe my life would change.  It did. 2 initial checks were written by State Farm to start work, 8/22 and 10/22 totaling $16,152.60. Additional amendments to damage kept coming. 1/23 for $4658.50, for headlights. 2 headlights that worked perfectly for 9 months, while I drove my pretty car. They bought brand new headlights. Why? Why that much? IT'S NOT A FERRARI. I doubt Ferrari headlights cost that much, especially if nothing is wrong with them. Slow poking for a year, to 8/23. Another check, written directly to Sterling, for $3962.92. Up another $8621.42. Now they're were at $24,777.62. But wait, there's more, we're not done. NOT EVEN CLOSE. They almost double that #. Bleeding me as I made $1000 a month payments on loan and ins., for almost 1 1/2 years. Trying to destroying my life. Like the family they almost ruined about the same time. They gave SAC an F on BBB. Unfortunately I have no family. My prospects become dimmer day by day. Because of SAC.  Time passed, they dragged on, stalling, not answering calls, no emails or calling me once. My calls went unanswered, or ignored. Once, I reached Joey, the owner. I asked, "where's my car, why has it taken well over a year"? He says, "let me check on that, puts me on hold10 minutes, then hangs up on me. That's how they treated me, LIKE TRASH. They knew all the angles. What they could get away with. Masters of deception, with no consciencee. Thinking there are no consequences for violating others. No mercy, just one goal. The art of the scam. Joey's peons, Mel and others, constantly stalled, lied, schemed. Working their magic. Over 13 months into "their project" I stopped in, to inspect the condition of my car and make sure it would still start, as it baked in full sun, totally diccoloring my dash, but still with that new car smell.. Thankfully it started right up.That high performance engine, on a car I could only dream of. Honestly, I had'nt seen much of anything done on it, except the fender. The bumper hung on the wall, as Mel said, that's it, we're almost finished. "When will it be done?", I said. Mel says,"it only needs 2 MORE WEEKS, we need to get it out  of here". More time passed as State Farm kept paying. Oddly, directly to Sterling, instead of me, that I'd transfer to SAC. The coup de gras de fraud was when SF wrote a final check for...GET THIS, $23,164.01! Then SAC abandoned the car at Infinity of Austin, for the finishing touche. That airbag, an outrageously priced one. I called Infinity to check on the airbag. "Is it installed?", they said, "we know nothing about an airbag. Car was dropped off and SAC said, IT WON'T START". I said, are you telling me you never got $23,000 to put an airbag in?"  There I was, making $1,000 payments for allmost 18 months om a loan & ins. It was obvious I was never going to get my car back. It was taken by Cinch Auto finance, after they were told it was ABANDONED, with only 4k to payoff a loan. SICK! The only nice car I've owned. Driving stinky work trucks for over 40 years. The $23,164.01?  What happened to that? Pocketed by SAC. A little "bonus". The pleasure derived by F****** ME, and getting very well paid for that privaledge. When I called up Sterling and asked "what happened to the $23k? It was Mel or another peon who said, "oh, we spent that $ on parts for the airbag. I said, "then why in the hell did you send it to infinity, after telling me you were not qualified to install airbags?!" Frauds, liars, manipulators, schemers, theives.

    I am writing to express my profound disappointment with the service provided by Sterling Auto…read moreconcerning the repair of my vehicle following hail damage. My experience has been fraught with delays, subpar workmanship, and a lack of effective communication. Timeline and Financial Commitment: * June 2024: I entrusted my vehicle to Sterling Auto for repairs related to hail damage. * August 2024: I remitted the full payment of $11,524.46 ,anticipating a comprehensive and timely restoration. Issues Encountered: * Incomplete Repairs: After nine months, several components, including the windshield, moonroof glass, and various trim, remain either unprepared or not relaced. Some parts under the hood are missing. * Substandard Workmanship: The trunk was improperly reinstalled, and the vehicle emblems were not reattached, reflecting a lack of attention to detail. * Management Instability: The frequent turnover of managers has contributed to inconsistent communication and a lack of accountability. Mel, Demetri and then Abel. Also Joey Hayes the owner was contacted but never responded as well. * Communication Deficiencies: Repeated attempts to obtain updates via emails and phone calls have largely been unreturned, leaving me without clear information regarding the status of the repairs. The vehicle was returned to me upon my request for use in financial needs, after a check was handed to the manager at the time Mel in person for $11,524.46, with a promise to repair the vehicle in a timely manner at a later date in one business day. That was in August of 2024. The repairs are yet to be completed. Communication with the multiple new managers was dragged on with promises of looking into it and looking into parts. We met with Abel in person on Feb 17th. He promised the trim, windshield, moonroof and other parts would be ordered and replaced. Even including reattaching my left mirror which was unrelated to this event. I drove 3 hours there (I have moved since) and then drove 3 hrs back in the middle of the week. On Thursday March 6th at 1:21pm was the last communication from Abel (the manager) stating he was looking into parts. The same excuse given for months and months. At that time I asked for my money back. There was no response so a demand email was sent with a repair quote from another repair shop to Abel (manager), their support as well as Rachael and Joey Hayes email accounts Friday March 7th at 12:14pm. This demand was never responded to. Current Situation: The latest communication from the new manager, Abel, indicates that the shop is currently managing a backlog of 20 vehicles, suggesting systemic inefficiencies that adversely affect customer service. Personal Impact: This protracted ordeal has imposed significant emotional and financial stress on me and my family. As a longstanding patron of Sterling Auto for over a decade, this experience has been particularly disheartening. My commitment to supporting local businesses in our community has been met with an unprecedented level of dissatisfaction. Recommendation: Prospective customers are advised to exercise caution when considering Sterling Auto for vehicle repairs. My experience underscores the importance of thoroughly evaluating a repair shop's current operational effectiveness and customer service responsiveness before entrusting them with substantial repair projects. It is my hope that Sterling Auto addresses these issues promptly to restore the trust and confidence of its clientele.

Rod…read morewas particularly helpful in promptly getting me an estimate and then working with the insurance company to adjust theirs to fully cover the cost of repair (excluding deductible). The shop meticulously worked to get my SUV repaired to where it looks brand new! Since U First Auto Body off 290 did such a great job the first time, I took my 330i in for body repair to the hood. U First did a fantastic paint job as you can see from the before and after!

    I can't say enough good things about Jesse and the service I received at U First Auto Body. I had…read morevisited twice before to get a paint quote and received excellent service and the best price, so when I accidentally damaged the paint on my husband's car I knew exactly where I wanted to go. However, since it's my husband's car he insisted I try the dealer-recommended shops first. I did--and the experience couldn't have been more different. At the first shop I visited, the representative was rude and condescending. He didn't listen to my concerns or answer my questions and I left feeling anxious and frustrated. I immediately went back to U First and was relieved to speak with Jesse again. He walked me through every step of the process, answered all my questions, and set clear, reasonable expectations. The price he quoted was significantly lower than the dealer-recommended shop and he was able to get my husband's car in on my timeline. Once I dropped off the car, the communication was excellent throughout the entire process. The repair is absolutely PERFECT--flawless paint match. If my husband had been out of town he never would have known the car had been damaged. Jesse also explained that the car self-calibrates, so there was no need--or charge--for calibration that the other shop quoted at $2000! In the end, my total was about one-third of the "starting price" quoted by the dealer-authorized shop. I highly recommend Jesse and U First Auto Body for their honesty, professionalism, fair pricing, and outstanding workmanship. I hope not to damage more cars but if I do I know exactly where I'm going!

    Alfredo Collision Repair

    Southeast Austin

    I would never recommend Alfredo Collision to anyone…read more I brought my vehicle to this shop after a collision that affected the rear passenger-side wheel. The repair required replacing certain parts related to the suspension and wheel area. Unfortunately, my experience with this place was extremely frustrating from beginning to end. From the start, the woman working there who identifies herself as the Accounting Manager was rude, unprofessional, and very unhelpful. She behaved as if she owned the business, yet showed very little competence or willingness to resolve issues. I even asked to speak with the owner, Alfredo, and was given incorrect information about who the owner actually was. The biggest problem is that my vehicle was returned to me in worse condition than before the repair. After picking it up, the car started making loud noises that it never had before. This makes me seriously question the quality of the work performed. It also explains why they never wanted to provide any warranty for their labor. In addition, the shop kept my vehicle longer than expected and still attempted to charge $50 per day in late fees, which I find completely unreasonable considering the delays and the condition in which my car was returned. At this point, I plan to have my vehicle independently inspected to verify the quality of the work performed. If the inspection confirms my concerns, I will take the appropriate legal action. It is very disappointing to see a business treat customers this way. I honestly believe the owner may not be aware of how poorly this place is being managed and how much damage this type of behavior is doing to the reputation of the shop. I strongly recommend that anyone considering this place look elsewhere for repairs.

    Got back to me quickly with pricing. Great customer service. Responsive. Although I did not use…read morethis company they had a fair quote and good response time.
