SE Autobody / Collision Center
“They were all so nice and did a great job fixing my car that got hit badly by a drunk driver while visiting San Diego.”
Philip Thearle's Autowerks Collision Center
“Even though they were not an approved garage for my insurance company they worked with me, advocated for what was right, and they will warranty their work - with that being said they fixed a few of our other cars (hit a coyote in the dessert, one got hit by a dessert wind storm and another in a parking garage) and none of the cars had ever had to go back for the covered work; good work the first time is even better than a warranty.”
Collision Tech
“Initially, the insurance company was offering less for the damages, but the team at Collision Tech fought on my behalf to ensure my car was fully repaired without any extra financial burden on my end.”
Convoy Auto Body
“Hopefully I don't ever have to go back for another body work but if I do I would go back to Convoy Auto Body.”
