First off, before you have to read all the way through this saga, I will simply say this…read more NORTHSIDE AUTO IS THE VERY BEST. I was involved in a serious deer strike. The deer went airborne and struck the center front of my sedan. At the scene, the responding officer and I discussed the likelihood of the vehicle being totaled. It was towed to Northside, a shop I had no prior awareness of as a repair facility. I arrived the next morning close to opening to discuss what I thought was the end of my new car. Josh met me, immediately knew which vehicle I was there for, then walked me out to review what he believed were the major concerns. My insurance company demanded that no work begin until the police report was released, a process estimated at 7-14 business days not including an upcoming midweek holiday. Josh spoke directly with the adjuster, was able to get the rental process moving, then began a tear-down to start the estimate while we waited on insurance. Throughout the entire repair, Josh and the team regularly contacted me to advise on concerns, delays, or insurance red tape that needed attention. The Northside team handled the insurance company so thoroughly that I never heard from the adjuster again beyond the initial estimate. Let's talk about the repairs. All OEM parts. Paint is flawless. Fit, gap and adjustments are fully dialed in. While completing the project and calibrating the entire new front-end sensor system, Josh called to advise that a fault code was being thrown. This was one I had previously visited the dealership for. The Northside team traced the cause to a corroded electrical connector, ordered a replacement, then ensured all applications, sensors, electrical components, plus cosmetic details were corrected properly. While the car was there, I asked for a few minor cosmetic corrections outside the scope of the accident work. These issues were handled separately and completed with the same level of flawless workmanship. Pick up I arrived at the shop and turned over my rental vehicle to them, yes they also assist with rentals. Josh walked me through the completed repairs. My car had been fully detailed, and a Northside Autobody care package was waiting inside. All in all, while the experience of hitting a deer with my new car was horrendous, everything from Redl's tow with Greg through the complete project at Northside, plus Josh's professional approach, made the entire experience far easier and honestly a bit enjoyable. Top-notch work. Top-notch people. You will not find a cleaner repair facility.

This was my second visit to Prestige in a year, and while I'm extremely sad to learn that the owner, Rob, has retired, I'm happy to report that his right-hand man, Rocco, is now at the helm, continuing the same high-quality customer service and expert auto repairs we've all come to know and love. When I recently noticed a dent in my bumper, I didn't hesitate to drive straight to Prestige. Rocco greeted me with warmth and respect, taking the time to explain the cost, timeline, and details of the repair, even though it was a minor job. I dropped off my car early the next morning, and the wonderful Caroline took my keys. Just an hour later, I received a call to pick up my car--and it looked perfect with no trace of the dent. While Rob and Rocco were a fantastic team, it's clear that Rocco is committed to carrying on their legacy of excellence. Thank you so much again for everything! I won't trust any other body shop but Prestige.

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

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.

He knows what he's doing is wrong and illegal so he tries to get away from where he's towing asap. He's rude, aggressive, confrontational & has zero remorse for anything. I get it's his job but what he does is illegal!!!!!! He's been on the news, he's currently being investigated & hopefully he will be shut down. I've never wished bad on anyone but this "man" deserves to lose his business and he should be responsible for paying back all the people who he illegally towed.

Just as there was no misunderstanding of the name I was given as to whom I was doing business with. I cleared that myself and my grandchildren would be meeting the tow truck back at my home where the vehicle was being towed to. The scruffy looking person who accompanied Steve/Michael in the tow truck that he says was a "trainee" never moved from the truck to do anything or observe how anything was done. He simply sat in the truck glaring at me as I questioned the "owner" about his deceptive practices. Is that how you train a trainee? From my standpoint, his presence served no positive purpose. Good luck with your business. People will take a chance on you if they want to in spite of my warning; and every dog has its day. Let's not continue this conversation.
